Wonderful ambience , Delicious Italian food and friendly staff . Their dessert is to die for and they have many varieties of drinks also. Our go to place for Italian good is north end in Boston but this place is definitely giving a high competition to all the Italian restaurant in Boston . Top notch food , clean ambience , feeling of fine dine environment. I highly highly recommend this place to all the Italian food lovers . Can’t wait to come back again and enjoy meal with my fav boys !!

A big “Thank you” to the owner and staff at Rufina’s for making our special occasion so pleasant. We had a small wedding celebration with family 15 of us. Rufina’s gave us a private room and they were so kind to let me come an hour early before they opened to decorate. They had the table already done up for us, and the room was arranged perfect with pretty white linen table clothes and a few small tables to put gifts, and decorations. The waitresses were superb! So friendly and attentive. I was a little nervous because it was only my 2nd time there, (1st time was delicious as well) and my family is 100% Italian – so it’s all about the food lol

Cozy and casual mom and pop style Italian restaurant in small strip mall near the Chelmsford-Carlisle line. Daily specials in addition to all the Italian favorites. Friendly service. Popular for take out, too. Ample parking in a shared lot. Recommended.

We had visited for take out a few weeks ago. Tonight we went for the first time to dine in. It was delicious soup to nuts. Two enthusiast thumbs up. We will be back. Go hungry and leave room for dessert

Excellent quality and service every time! There is no better bartender than Catherine. Her service is impeccable, and she even recalls your preferences after just one visit. There are far too many delicious options to list here. This is the best restaurant in town if you want a memorable evening out with excellent food and service.

It perplexes me to read negative reviews about this restaurant. I’ve never had anything but excellent food and service here. Ruffina is my go-to for Italian food. Always great! Thank you for an exceptional experience every time.

Rufina’s is a local Italian restaurant in Chelmsford that makes you feel like you’re in the Boston North End. The food is superb and the staff treats you like family. You won’t find a better Italian restaurant between the North End and the Canadian border and probably anyplace north of that.

We must have hit Ruffina’s on a day when the regular chef called out. Although my husband LOVED what he had, the other eight of us were pretty unhappy. To discuss the biggest disappointment, two of us ordered chicken picatta. We could tell that the chef used bottled lemon juice (like ReaLemon) instead of fresh. And we’re pretty sure they used oil (we’re guessing canola oil) instead of butter in the sauce. But what’s *really* perplexing is why they were so SKIMPY with the pasta. There was probably about 1/3 cup on each plate.
