I was extremely impressed by the quality and quantity of food here. North end Italian is generally a bit overhyped having been to Giacomo’s, Asiago’s and a couple other spots. This Italian is the best I’ve had outside of Italy or Brooklyn. The chicken saltambacco was excellently cooked and the spinach accompanying it was quite nice. My partner ordered a pasta dish in orange sauce that was very tasty and a hearty portion. We split a pistachio pizza which was also excellent. Great service too. One of the best meals I’ve had in Boston and a very pleasant surprise in what is often a touristy overrated area.

Had calamari, pizza and ossobuco pork today. The ossobuco pork was cold in the middle which was a big turn off. Chef did not do a good job reheating it. Pizza was ok. Calamari was good. Forgot to mention that the server increased the tip by $4 overcharging us hoping we won’t notice. Had to call the restaurant to get this refunded. Mediocre food, loud atmosphere, bad experience. Will definitely not be coming back.

I’m not impressed by their margherita, and a good Italian restaurant must make good margherita. I also tried the fettuccini bolognese, it’s okay but lack a bit of final touch to make it great. Better than some tourist traps nearby, but has much to improve.

Walked in and me and my party were in a rush and instantly our needs were catered to and our order was expedited. The food was out of this world and surpassed our expectations. If I could give it ten stars I would.

Very good food and service. This is a definitive gem.
Great food, would be nice a reservation didn't mean a 40 minute wait after the reservation time. Also if you have a group of 5 expect to sit at a table for 4 which isn't the most comfortable.

Maybe some of the best clams I have ever had. Highly recommend. Great customer service and I had zero wait.Dietary restrictions: They had gluten free options right on the menu so that is always nice. Not a ton of GF, but good enough for me.

We had a reservation but we waited for at least 50 minutes. Why did we wait if we had a reservation? Food was not good either.

We had dinner reservations for 4 before a Bruins game. We arrived on time and were seated immediately. Atmosphere was nice table a little tight but other than that it was good.Server came right over we were welcomed drinks came in no time orders placed and food arrived in no time. Everything was hot and delicious other than my wife's Chix Parm it was very bland no tast to the sauce.My Rigatoni Salsiccia was fabulous, my daughter and son inlaws pizzas were also fabulous which were Gamberi and Capricciosa pizzas.All in all the food was very good.Server came over once to take the order never came back except when we were finished with our dinner.Table got cleared quickly and desert menu was given to us.Server never came back to check to see if we were all set.After 10 minutes of waiting I had to go find her and ask herfor the bill. I went back to the table waited another 10 minutes she finally gets to us and gave me the bill.I tipped 25% signed the tablet and pressed paper receipt.She then says I have to go get the paper copy.She returns in about a minute put her hand on my shoulder and says thank you very much with a gentle squeeze on my shoulder.I said thank you very much as we were pressed for time in never looked at the receipt until Today. Yes a week went by but it is what it is.I just looked over the bill and come to find out the server already added a 20% tip to the bill and didn't say anything about it.This is totally WRONG IN SO MANY WAYS!The server should have told me that the tip is added into the bill.She didn't do anything never came to ask us is everything g okay nothing.For an establishment to let their servers do this is WRONG.I HIGHLY RECOMEND LOOK YOUR BILL OVER VERY CAREFULLY BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT TELL THE TIP HAS BEEN ADDED.

+:Good food, prompt service, value for money- : Too noisy, warm red wine, too promp derviceFood served very fast (too fast I think) and they asked if we wanted the bill just after swallowing the last bite of desert.Not a cosy place due too the noise from the many guests, but some may say that is ok and a typical italian atmosphere. I really liked the food - e.g the tiramisu was (almost) perfect, but the wine was served too warm (>20C) with cheap type wine glass.
