Most authentic Italian meal I’ve had in Massachusetts. Chef Angelo is from Sardinia and he gave us personal service. Soup was light and flavorful, the Shrimp Garbelli was just incredible, and the desserts were fresh and inspired.
I lived in Italy and did culinary school there. I've eaten at hundreds of authentic Italian restaurants. No restaurant in USA has really ever scratched the itch of those places like Trattoria Nina. I last ate here 6 years ago and I'm happy to report this place still scratches that itch. It really feels like you've been invited into someones home off the street in Firenze or Bologna and you're eating nonna's cooking.
The music was charming and it's such a great vibe. Excited...read full review

Trattoria Nina is a small, independently owned restaurant that offers a limited but delightful menu of made-to-order, fresh and flavorful dishes. The service is attentive and casual, often provided by the owner/chef. While the ambiance is old-fashioned, the focus is on the exceptional quality of the food, which includes dishes like ravioli and pasta with meat. Reservations are recommended due to the intimate seating for only 14 people.
Customers love the delicious wine and the opportunity to chat with the chef, who prepares the food with care and passion. The casual atmosphere is enhanced by the owner's phonograph playing old records, creating a unique and charming dining experience. The food is absolutely amazing, from the Caesar Salad to the fresh Pappardelle Pasta with Lamb Ragu, the Vegetarian Lasagna with a Smoked Tomato Sauce, and the Strawberry Lemon Tiramisu. Customers also enjoy the mussels pasta, lobster ravioli, Nina salad, Caprese salad, and spaghetti with mussels. The chef's specials, such as the salmon fettuccine, are perfect, and the chocolate mousse cake is highly recommended.
