About Tresca

Tresca restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience in the North End. The friendly and efficient staff ensure a warm welcome, and the menu boasts a range of delicious options. The Swayman Special and chicken piccata are standouts, while the Beef Carpaccio and Truffle Caesar salad make for excellent starters. The Lobster Ravioli and Pasta Bolognese are also highly praised, with the Bolognese nachos being a hit among recent visitors. Chef Rich makes every single dish impeccable, and for a seasonal dish, the pumpkin chicken risotto is a must-try. The stuffed mushrooms and stuffed scallops are also amazing, and the meatballs melt in your mouth. The restaurant has a great, varied, interesting menu and a good wine list. The lobster-filled mushroom appetizer is wonderful, and the lobster ravioli and shrimp al a Bourque are outstanding main courses. The service is quick and efficient without feeling rushed, and the staff are attentive and helpful. The space is a beautiful old two-floor North End building, with the upstairs area providing a cozy atmosphere. Guests have enjoyed sampling dishes like veal, chicken, and eggplant parmesan, as well as the Bolognese, all praised as some of the best ever tasted. The homemade pasta, crispy chicken with lemony sauce, and moist, flaky swordfish under spicy puttanesca are highlights. The chicken parm egg rolls are a non-traditional but tasty appetizer, and the Tiramisu offers a moist, flavorful finish. The drinks are excellent, and the restaurant boasts a good beer list. Overall, Tresca delivers outstanding meal, service, and space, making it a must-visit destination in Boston with staff and the owner going above and beyond to provide an exceptional dining experience.
