Scarpino's Classic Italian

We ordered cacio e pepe pasta, the pasta was overcooked and the cheese was of poor quality.

Wow, the portions were humongous. The Fettuccini Carbonara was perfecto. The best plus was the amazing garlic knots, complimentary with the meal. Highly recommend if you are famished and want/need a filling dinner at a great price. We added the spaghetti and meatballs special to go with our meal.

Here on vacation and wanted Italian. Found this restaurant via a Google Maps search. No reservation, we just walked in around 5:30. We got seated right away.
The food, my wife got chicken Parmesan while I got pork parm. It was possibly the best Parmesan I’ve ever had. We’re from Massachusetts and going in to the Northend for Italian is easy. This food was better in my opinion. Damn, it was good.

I will be fair and say this was on valentines so judge accordingly. Our reservation was set for 7:30pm, we checked in and told they were 20 min behind. Okay cool I get it being Valentine’s Day things are slow. By 8:03 we still hadn’t heard anything, so I check back in and told we’re next on the list. By 8:30 we still hadn’t gotten seated and again had to ask about our table, which did result in us getting sat down. We order appetizers and main course right away since it’s already late. We don’t get our appetizers till 9:30, all while our server completely ignores us. The bruschetta was soggy and our soup was luke warm at best. Eventually at like 9:40 our server finally starts checking in more, offering us a free salad/drink etc. It’s 10 now and I’m ready to just pay and get our meal to go, while waiting 2 other servers ask if we’re waiting for something and I politely inform her we’re just waiting on our meal. She responds with “oh…I’m sorry” and walks away. About 5-10 min later we finally get our food and leave. Mind you the restaurant was only getting emptier and emptier as the evening progressed. Again I understand it’s valentines but I lack of communication and service is still unacceptable. Fair to say that will be our only attempt at eating here

Edit: it has been 3 days with no contact 🤷‍♀️

Wonderful food and entertainment by a four piece jazz band. Only drawback was that they take walk-ins regardless of reservations. We had to wait 15 minutes past our reservation time to be seated.

Arrived for 6:30 reservation and we were promptly seated. We ordered about 5 minutes later. Food arrived 70 minutes after we ordered! Others were served promptly but our waitress kept telling us it would be just a few more minutes. When food finally came it was only Luke warm. Place was very noisy. Not a place we'd visit again.

From the outside you wouldn't think much. But inside you are transported. The people, the atmosphere and especially the food were all amazing. We had a catered event in the backroom. The meatballs, chicken piccata, fettuccine and eggplant parm were all delicious and I'm from Jersey saying that. The staff were friendly, fast bringing bread and drinks. I loved it and can't wait to go back!

The food was excellent; however, it was so busy and crowded, it was a long waiting time for the food.

My experience was better than expected. After my last visit which was awful in more ways than one. However, Joshua contacted me made me a promise to make up for my bad experience. Shall I say he is a man of his word and did exactly that. Thank you to Joshua and our server Cathy G.
