Without a doubt, one of the best restaurants in Boston! I had tenderloin pizza & Alaskan king crab legs, the crab is likely the best I have ever had, the pizza, amazing flavors! I highly recommend this place.
The food, service and atmosphere is impeccable at this restaurant. The steak melts in your mouth. Their pan seared scallops dish is by far my favorite for sure. The staff is always so on point! The drinks are superb too. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Boston. �
Strega Italiano Back Bay in Boston is delicious Italian food with a 5 star service. I felt really fancy when I ate here. The server made us feel special. He accommodated the menu when he could to perfect our expectations and experience. They checked in on my group throughout the whole service.
My group traditionally started the meal with splitting appetizers. The standout of the meal was the wedding soup. It was super yummy! The soup was enriched with flavorable meatballs, diced up vegetables, and define pasta. I also got the polpette too. The polpette was delicious beef and pork meatballs that were tossed with pomodoro sauce. This appetizers is definitely big enough to split with a few folks.
The group got salumie formaggi grand board too. The charcuterie board was customisable to our group's palette of cheses and meat. Everything tasted really fresh and catered to our liking. The bread of table was really delicious too.
Cavetelli salsicca was my main dish of the meal. It was a pasta enriched dish with sweet Italian sausage and brocceli rabe. The pasta had a white sauce that wasn't of my liking. Upon requesting, the service was able to swap the white sauce for a new mariana sauce. This accommodation saved the dish for me. The red sauce really highlighted the heat from the sweet Italian sausage.
The bathrooms are really clean here too. Overall everything was really maintained ordered. The meal and service were a five star meal that deserves all its attention.

Great food and service tonight with the dine in! My table was treated very well and I thoroughly enjoyed the food (the affogato was great) - the only thing is I left my reusable straw at the restaurant (owner/ customer service if you guys see this please help me find it if you can)
Love-

Amazing! I absolutely loved it! Our waiter was excellent! Thank you!
This deserves 6 stars!!
The food was absolutely amazing (got the oysters, pasta ragu, and paired it with a red wine, and an espresso martini).
The courses were delicious and cooked to perfection. The oysters were some of the best I’ve ever had and the pasta tasted so fresh and flavourful. The espresso martini was made perfectly and they have a unique range of options to choose from (I had the one with amaretto!!! So good)
The staff were so lovely and attentive, checking in to bring bread/wine etc. The manager was also so great and organised a last minute table for me.
Overall such a positive and enjoyable experience here, would absolutely come again no doubt!!
Great modern atmosphere and cozy booths! The food was great, especially the dessert. It is expensive but worth it! I'd recommend going a little earlier if you have a large party. I was staying with the Boston Park plaza and it was very easy to get in from the hotel lobby.
Stopped in for my boy's birthday dinner. Difficult to find parking, outside of going into the parking lot behind the hotel. It's Boston, what else do you expect.
The interior of the space is very intimate with very low lighting, outside of the bar at the front. The aesthetic is very much steakhouse vibe and the atmosphere is very much fancy and high-end.
The food was good. The octopus was delicious and the oysters don't disappoint. The filet mignon was very good and cooked well with good flavor. I ate the swordfish which was very interesting in flavor. Kind of sweet and tangy, still very good.
The standout of the restaurant was/is the service. Too-notch service our server (forgot his name) gave me some of the best service and treatment I've had in a long time. They highlighted the experience for me.

Fun atmosphere. We were there for a holiday party with a set menu so not representative of the whole menu. Nevertheless, the fish was overcooked and not flavorful. My colleagues had the filet mignon, which I’m told was better. Service was good.
This upscale Italian place hit all the marks for us at our birthday dinner this weekend. It was fancy but approachable, with a relaxed atmosphere and none of the shrill shrieking that characterizes a typical outing in Boston these days. Even large parties of 10 or more people behave themselves admirably. Service was polished and confident, and never intrusive, and the food was outstanding. My veal Milanese was one of the best I've had, and I have to say the portion sizes were just a tad too generous so be careful when you order appetizers!
The staffs were super nice and the food was delicious. They found out it was our anniversary and they offered us their signature cake. That was very nice gesture of them and definitely make us feel so welcome and special.
Honestly thought we were walking in to a "hotel restaurant" for cocktails and appetizers. Totally caught off guard by how good all of it was. Turned out to be one of the better meals of our trip. Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was pleasant and prompt. Just overall impressed.
