It's a great restaurant with good food. My only complaint is that all the tables are so so so sticky. And apparently the server said all tables are like that and we saw everyone around us struggle as well. To pick up or move glasses or plates is an art :)
This place was awesome. It’s very rare that i go out to nicer places like this but it makes it all worth it. We went during the boston dine out and the price you pay for all the delicious food is awesome. The service was great and the food was too, i have no complaints.
The best thing about this restaurant is the balcony-side seating.
The second best thing is the calamari, it was our favorite from the 3 appetizers that we ordered (meatballs and bruschetta).
Olive oil was delicious but we had to ask for it, bread+olive oil was not brought before we asked.
Bread was delicious but too soft, no crispiness.
The gnocchi was no special, too big of a portion (3/5)
Chicken parm was good.
Overall we did not get impressed by the menu, it was hard to choose main dishes.
Sitting by the balcony was very nice, we went there around 7pm. It got super loud and noisy after that and even the balcony did not help.
I would not go back to this place for their food, but maybe for the balcony.
Great for a date night! Still early in my exploration of north end restaurants but this definitely set the standard. The wait staff was incredibly friendly and the food did not disappoint. My favorite dish was the calamari. It’s was so crispy and fresh. It was perfect for an appetizer and it was a great refresher and complement to the relatively heavier pasta entrees (also incredibly tasty).
What you would expect from a North End restaurant. The calamari was okay— I felt like it could’ve been less salty and emphasized the squid more. The pasta with eggplant and cream vodka sauce was delicious! The sauce was pretty sweet, but paired well with the eggplant and cheese! The ambience is quite nice with big windows that let in the hubbub of the street! Would recommend for a less busy restaurant with god food :)
Excellent since the second we stepped in!
Service amazing, food incredible and drinks 100/10. Definitely recommended!

I had the privilege to work here 9-10yrs ago. Back then the food quality and service experience was the highest. Today that same top quality of service and food quality status still: the highest. No where else you will experience such authentic Italian cuisine. I will never forget this restaurant for the rest of my life. I will take you with me back to Houston, TX. But I’ll be back. Thank you guys 😀
The whole experience from start to finish was amazing. The spicy garlic calamari was light and delicate with a delicious flavor. Both our main courses were perfect, veal parmigiana and sausage arrabiatta. And our server was so accommodating, he took care with the kitchen to prepare my dish with veggies instead of pasta (gluten free). Thank you for an outstanding experience!
Husband and I decided to try this corner spot as the ambiance coming out the windows looked so inviting. We both got the seafood specials for the evening and they were phenomenal! Attentive staff sat us down quickly and got our alcoholic drinks out fast. Would visit again.
Thoroughly enjoyed the meal here the other night with a group of friends. I ordered a glass of Chardonnay and porcini ravioli. The espresso martinis ordered by the rest of the group were a hit as well! The staff was very friendly, professional, and accommodating. Due our uber getting cancelled we showed up late and even with a packed house they made sure to get us in. Thank you so much!
