“BOSA completely blew us away and honestly helped me and my fiancé re ignite our relationship. Odd I know but we can explain. First off food was phenomenal and I would even say that work underplays it. Every dish nails layers of flavor. There’s few places that I go and order different meals as I usually go with what I know but BOSA offers great diversity in their menu and I cant wait to treat my fiancé to dinner again here. Now let’s get to our waitress Nicole! She’s the one who made this night beyond amazing. The initial greet was done with a friendly face and welcoming smile that made us feel right at home. She’s super knowledgeable about the whole menu with great recommendations! One thing I greatly admire and appreciate is she will give you her personal opinions of the food instead if trying to upsell the most expensive. That goes a long long way with me. Nicole is super personable and friendly it felt like we knew her for 10 years! You don’t see this service anymore and I told her I want to personally request her everytime we go from now on. Nicole told us her daughter works with her as well (clearing/cleaning tables, etc); what a dynamic duo I’ll tell ya! Both of them truly amazing! When I say me and my fiancés relationship got re ignited by Nicole and bosa that shouldn’t be taken lightly. Between broken down vehicles and trying to afford a wedding money has caused lots of tension, but money didn’t even phase us tonight. The service we received was worth more than what I had in my pocket. We tipped Nicole well and honestly if I had more cash on me I woulda done more. She didn’t even want to accept the tip but she’s truly amazing. We left feeling refreshed and renewed so thank you Nicole! You changed us for the better and showed us there’s still good people in the world. Thank you once again for an amazing night and we are truly blessed to have met you. Nicole should be the face of the company they would kill it! She’s funny smart knowledgeable and truly knows how to connect and take care of each individual customer. We left feeling like we were friends! Phenomenal night, phenomenal food, even better staff! The entire crew from hostess to Nicole to the manager and general manager came together and made the night special memorable and gave us lots to talk about. We have a network of many “foodies” and we will be sharing our experience with them!“

“The place is small but so ain't I you go in there and eat they feed you and feed you and you will take a doggie bag home the food is fresh it could be just like in Sicily hospitality of the owner and the waitress and the cook it's just so personable and the price is right I'm going back tomorrow and I was there today....“

“Have always enjoyed the food, eating in or take out. During covid when open we enjoyed many a meal and always felt our business was appreciated. Tonight my wife called to place an order ( of roughly 200.00 to 250.00) for our family. Understandably it took a while for the phone to be answered and when it was and my wife said " hello I would like to place a take out order" received " we are not taking take out orders this eve" and was abruptly hung up on. We have been loyal supporters of this establishment pretty since it opened. Never spending another penny here. Our money was great when things were lean, sadly unappreciated. Thanks.“

“Warm, cozy environment - friendly, professional service (Isabelle was amazing) and some unique genuine Italian creations with some great table wine - haven’t been here in 15+ years but will definitely be coming back soon… ♥️“

“This place is KILLING IT...a small family-run restaurant tucked away in the corner of a North Reading strip mall but pumping out big dishes, big flavors and great creativity...the staff is always present, warm and welcoming...keep up the good work !!!“

“The food here is the best. Huge options for even the toughest critic. Also have take home & make options. Prices are really good for the amount & quality of the food. I live near some very expensive Italian restaurants & their menus iare skimpy comoared to the choices at Strombolis. The iwner is always friendly, showing his appreciation to his customers. Like in any restaurants even in top notch sometimes an order is wrong but open your mouth & the owner will make it right. Been coming here for years. Atmosphere is like a pizza joint but dont let it fool you. The atmosphere keeps the prices reasonable“

“I've been a bunch of times. Never disappointed, everything is delicious.“

“My granddaughter and I finally made it to Decor restaurant. This restaurant had come highly recommended by many people and It has been on our bucket list for a while and tonight we finally tried it out and we both loved our dinner and desert so much. The Restaurant was very clean and it is also family owned and the owners are lovely people ,we can’t wait to go back and bring some friends. I give it a big huge 👍 up😄“

“Didn’t get a before photo but the after photo tells the story!! The Market Al Fresca in Tewksbury - four cheese lasagna - I don’t usually comment on other peoples lasagna because I like mine BUT this was absolutely delicious, so tasty and packed with cheese. Half of this tray fed three adults (it’s about a 6x9 tray) I can’t wait to try some of their other dinner offerings! I might never cook again!!! And they had gluten free offerings also. Of course I left with just baked bread still warm snd dessert as well. TRy it out I don’t think you will be disappointed!!!“

“This is a jewel cafe that became my favorite. I drive for 30 minutes to enjoy the food here. Staff members are friendly, there is a variety of meals and sweets. The pistachio ricotta is my favorite as well as the Tiramisu and the Italian donuts straight out of the oven. The sitting area is bright and comfortable. The parking is great. Their coffee is the best 👌 I highly recommend this cafe.“

“We had our 2nd catered luncheon event from this River Road location in Andover and they outdid themselves again! The food was fantastic! The Eggplant Parm, Sliders, Chicken broccoli penne, Mista Salad and the cookies and brownies for dessert were perfect. Looking forward to ordering from them again in the future. Reasonably priced and delicious!“

“Unbelievable food, I am very picky about food, I was on the hunt to find a delicious chicken parm. Without a doubt if you have not been to this establishment. You have not had the best there is to offer. Huge portions cooked perfectly. Wife tried a pizza and true to form also amazing. Marco’s is a lock. Get there and enjoy the best authentic food you ever had.“

“From start to finish, I would recommend Salvatore’s to any engaged couple as a top tier wedding venue in the area. Marci was our coordinator and I cannot give her enough positive praise for her expertise and genuine care for us as the bride and groom throughout the entire process. The food is unbelievable, with more than just Italian options. We chose a carving station, chicken marsala, pasta, salad, veggie medley, and whipped potatoes for our buffet. Plated meals are available as well. The Coliseum room is the larger of the two function rooms, and the dance floor is centrally located with tables around it. Also included in the room is a full bar and a beautiful private bridal suite included with a bathroom and sitting area. We had plenty of room for a photo booth for guests. The wait staff and bartender were exceptional and took great care of our guests. The tasting was included in the price and was an amazing way to make sure our menu was perfect for our special day. Prices are reasonable, and you truly feel like you are being taken care of as family here. I did not get to meet Michael, the owner, but I heard fabulous feedback about him as well. I truly cannot thank Marci enough for making my experience as a bride planning a wedding so seamless and stress free. It was the most magical day ever!“

“We’ve been coming here for years. The service is always an A+ The food is always an A+ We drive all the way here from MA for dinner 🩷“

“This is one of the very few restaurants that will make you immediately feel at home! You can tell right from the start how much everyone and everything is appreciated and cared for which I believe is the benefit of a family owner restaurant especially when the family is as welcoming and caring as this one. From the martinis coming from the bar (with friendly service from Krista), especially my favorites the homemade creamy limoncello martini, their REAL espresso martinis, and their lemon drop to name a few, to the made to order dishes that you can customize to meet your preferred tastes or needs- everything is just done right! The appetizers are literally to die for- the eggplant a la romana will melt in your mouth, the world famous seafood mushroom are definitely world famous and the clams casino are 👌! For dishes I would recommend their double pork chop alla Nicola with truffle fries, their chicken or veal francese, their Marsala, saltimbocca, chicken langistino on their specials, and their amazing eggplant parm. Make sure you get their homemade pasta which they have 3 to choose from! If you truly know when a restaurant is overall special, then you won't have a hard time choosing the Colosseum for your next dine out experience. Despite when they get busy, I don't think they disappoint. Well worth the wait!!“

“Amazingly crafted sauce recipe. I normally get heartburn off of red sauce but this one is good.

This is THE BEST crust you will get within at least 25 miles. I’d honestly say that this is the best pizza you will get between Boston and all of New Hampshire.

Friendly people and they work hard to keep these pizzas and other food coming out top notch.

If you are looking for a 9/10 rating pizza, you call them and pay them. Tip them too… we need these pizzas to keep spinning!“

“This is a wonderful New York style pizzeria that delivery in the Reading area. Probably best NY style pizza and definitely best calzone place in this area. Wonderful, fresh and generous ingredients, terrific speedy service and always more than enough to feed any size party! This is a HUGE plus for Reading as majority of our restaurants are in that average realm.“
