bosco's is near the top of my regular rotation. We absolutely love it. Whenever we've taken friends, they have really enjoyed it.

The oysters Bosco was very good for our appetizer, my main course was Veal Greco (Veal and Eggplant) with angel hair pasta and finished splitting the Blackout cake with a couple of Nocello's! Great dinner experience for date night!

Always a great meal and reasonably priced. Returned after not eating there for 2 years, and it was still amazing!

Our food was delicious and our server Rowan took care of everything we needed. If there's a but it's that it's in need of some brightening up in the restaurant. It's kind of drab but can't find fault with the food or service!

We recently had food delivered to work from this wonderful place! We were all so impressed! The best meatballs I’ve ever had! The tortellini was also absolutely amazing! I was also very impressed with how every thing was packed and so convenient for us to eat buffet style at work. Thank you to every one at Boscos!

Bruce at Boscos is a rare gem in the hospitality world. He transforms a meal into a memory, a drink into a story, and a night out into an experience you’ll be talking about long after you’ve left. If you want service with heart, expertise, and a personal touch that makes you feel like a VIP, you owe it to yourself to seek out Bruce at Boscos.

Not impressed. Service was awful and put a damper on the entire evening. It was not even busy and the waiter was uninterested in doing his job, getting frustrated with simple requests…like trying to order drinks or asking for bread.

It was my first time going, I was invited by friends of mine. It was lobster night and everything was beyond what I expected.

We have tried to go here a few times for lunch unsuccessfully. The lunch hours are odd.
Walked in and went to the bar to the left. All seating in the bar closed off, but we love sitting at the bar so all good. When we opened the menu it was obvious we were going to have a good dinner. It just reads like a smart person hand picked the menu.
Started with BBQ shrimp app. Was afraid to open with this after having had them prepared by New Orleans top chefs. They were good. Not off the chain just good. I do not care for the shrimp being peeled and deveined in this dish and the sauce was creamier than traditional BBQ Shrimp. The flavor solid and the bread, obviously fresh was served in a large empty tomato can. As cool as it could be. I was already loving it.
My T and tonic had flat tonic in it….she took it at Mach one with a sweet smile and replaced it with a house Malbec which was solid.
My husband had the catch, a generous filet of redfish with one of the house sauces that had artichokes and capers in it. It was the best fish dish I have had in a few years. The filet was thick enough that you really got the full effect. Absolutely outstanding on every level. I had the seafood and eggplant appetizer. The best I have ever had. I had to keep pushing my husbands hand away and he is not like that. He would have eaten the whole thing. We had creme brûlée for dessert. Standard fare.
It was expensive with three wines and three cocktails and the meal and tip. That being said we will be back and work our way through the entire menu. North Shore food is soooo disappointing. DO NOT MISS this place. Really good food, really good service….cozy and cool clientele.

Excellent food. The BBQ shrimp and fish Giovanni were outstanding. Roan, our waiter was attentive and friendly. We will come back soon.

Stopped in for dinner and had the Chicken Parmesan with Spaghetti, and wow — absolutely incredible. The chicken was perfectly cooked with a golden, crispy crust and smothered in rich, flavorful marinara and melted cheese that pulled just right. The spaghetti was tender and coated in just the right amount of sauce — simple, classic, and delicious.

Service was friendly and attentive without hovering, and the food came out quick. Best part? No wait on a weekend evening, which made the whole experience even better.

The atmosphere felt warm and welcoming — the kind of local Italian spot where you can relax and enjoy your meal without feeling rushed. If you’re craving authentic comfort food done right, Bosco’s should definitely be on your list.
