My husband and I stumbled upon this wonderful restaurant while walking the streets of Boston. It was just the experience we were looking for. Orazio was our authentic Italian waiter. He went out of his way to make our evening memorable. Love, love, love.
I’ve been here twice, and had one of the best dinners I’ve ever had in an Italian American restaurant. The food is SUPERB and the service is outstanding. The place is packed so make a reservation. No matter what you order you can’t go wrong, but the meatballs should not be missed. Plan to return!
Absolutely the best you can get in the North End. We have had a consistently delicious meal each time we have been, excellent service , drinks were great and we just love this place. My husband actually said he had the best veal parm he has ever had in his entire life. We will be back again and again! Thank you!
