Had the nightly special entree. The pasta was so salty I couldnt eat it & ask them to please replace it. The second plate was also too salty, tho a little less than before, but still terrible. At that point my wife was finished eating & I was starving so I just ate it, followed by several glasses of water.Tho their regular menu items may be ok, I dont think the kitchen is good enough or agile enough to do anything that they dont do over & over again.Lotsa choices in the area for Italian. Go somewhere else.

If you want an amazing steak, this is the place! Steak at an Italian restaurant you ask? Yes. They have a dry aged tomahawk steak this is to die for. Mind you it is expensive, but so worth it. It’s huge and when we go as a couple we get it plus a few sides. It is also great for a larger group because then you have room to enjoy their pastas and desert. People usually think you go to a steakhouse to get a great steak. But I have found that many Italian and French restaurants offer these larger prime cuts and they are usually outstanding.

Lovely restaurant with incredible customer service. They understand family. We were greeted at the hostess stand promptly . The waitress was cute, friendly, attentive and accommodated all our requests. The cocktails were delicious with a good presentation. I thought the tequila based cocktails were very refreshing. We shared a variety of appetizers, our favorites being the meatball dish and the shrimp + calamari platter. I ordered the branzino for dinner and my wife ordered the salmon. Both dishes were well-plated and very delicious. I thought the portions were on the smaller side others disagreed. ( Our friend ordered the pasta special which he said was "incredible" and the portion size was ample.) Our dessert cocktails were an espresso martini (loved it!), limoncello and our friend ordered pistachio gelato. He highly recommends it. We were warmly sent off by a lovely gentleman, who I can only assume was the owner/partner. It was a nice touch to end the night. I can and will recommend this restaurant. Well done Mino's. well done!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options!

Sometimes it's just the service, sometimes it's just the food. Mino has the best of both!! We ordered roasted brussel sprouts, spaghetti con fruta de mare and cheese pizza. We will be back.

I love Mino's! Great for a ladies' night or a family dinner with the kids. Such an upbeat and trendy atmosphere without being over the top. The food is just delicious - great vegetarian and seafood options. Extensive wine list. And finally, prices are reasonable for the North Shore.

10/10!!!!My husband and I decided to leave a restaurant down the street from monks due to terrible service . We decided to step inside Minos and absolutely loved it.The service was amazing. The staff was so accommodating. They had a huge party and were completely booked except at the bar. Only one chair was available and they went looking for an additional seat for my husband and I.The bar staff was very knowledgeable and suggested the most amazing dishes for us.CJ was his name and he did such an amazing job .We had the Fritto miso which is a must try.The new sink and side salad was the perfect shareable plate along with the tortellini(best pasta I’ve ever had).As someone who isn’t a sweats girly we decided to try the gelato and OMG !! It was such a creamy and delicious treat. Will be retuning back to explore more of their menu.

I always get the vodka pasta with sausage and chili flakes. It's the best pasta dish that I have ever gotten. The pasta melts in my mouth. I always get it for pick up. I would recommend this place to anyone.
