This is not a place for vegetarians but they did make cheese ravioli for me. It was okay ! This place is overrated. overpriced and disappointing. On top of it, I was seated in a uncomfortable corner seat where lot of serving items were stored over my head (water jugs/olive oil etc.).

Visited Limoncello on a recent trip to Boston and had one of the weirder dining experiences I’ve had in a while. The weather at the time was beautiful so we were offered seats outside…little did we know that meant in a back area that was very secluded from the actual restaurant. It was cute enough but we were the only ones seated and when another party came, they were seated right next to us at a table less than two feet away. It was as if they were expecting a huge rush but instead just forced us to listen to another couple’s conversation.
The menu was startlingly expensive and there is a strict “no splitting” rule displayed. I ordered the meatballs and my friend had a shrimp pasta that had to be sent back because the shrimp were too tough to eat and the pasta was cold. The meatballs were fantastic but outside of that, the experience was lackluster.

If I’ve lived a good enough life, when I die, I will go to heaven and eat dinner at a place like Limoncello every night!
Limoncello is a quintessential Italian trattoria serving delicious wine, pasta, and desserts. Any trip to Limoncello must include a meatball. Warm & authentic atmosphere and service. Highly recommended.
We went to Limoncello for dinner with friends in a group of 10. We had made reservations in advance. There was a little wait after we arrived but the wait wasn't bad.
The food was very delicious. The staff at the restaurant is awesome, everyone working there had a good vibe to them. I think that made our experience very pleasant. All the dishes out table ordered were delicious and portions are generous.
Parking around the restaurant could be challenging. We parked at a near by paid parking lot which was about 10 minutes walk from the restaurant.
Looking forward to visiting again soon.

My sisters and I absolutely adore Limoncello! We've been coming here for the past three or four years, and now we’re known for taking our friends who visit from out of state here on their first night in town. We've celebrated New Year's Eve dinners and many birthdays here as well. We love the family atmosphere and, of course, the delicious food!

The best tomato sauce I have ever had, with spaghetti. That was the only vegan dish they offer. However, it was served cold, as well as my friend's ravioli. The atmosphere wasn't that bad, but the tables were super close to each other, and you could hear your neighbor's conversation. Service was a little bit rushed. At some point, two performers came out and started singing, which was fun, but when they were done, they started going around with a jar collecting cash tips. We did not know about this and had no cash on us. It was pretty embarrassing and uncomfortable. The wine list is only by the bottle. You have to ask the waiter for a glass, no price list. The check was hard handwritten. In the end, I think it's a little bit overpriced.

Had my mom's 80th Birthday party there last night. I can't say enough how wonderful this restaurant is. Their service is first class. Everyone is smiling always taking care of you. They really make you feel like family. The food is amazing too. I missed Maurizio but Vito was there with his family. Thank you for making her birthday so wonderful for us. Everyone loved it. Nice to be from Calabria and experience this. Those meatballs are the best.
The service was friendly, food was fantastic and the atmosphere felt like home. Would recommend this restaurant for anyone traveling to Boston and will definitely go back whenever I’m in the area.

The food was actually so horrendous, pasta was over cooked, and the sauce was tasteless. The restaurant was way too loud for no reason and the bread was stale and bitter
