“Our party of 14 had the wonderful opportunity for the private room Sunday June 5th. The 50th anniversary party was treated royally by Ron and Sharon. Their service and knowledge of the entrees was spot on. The kitchen staff didn't disappoint! Everything about our visit just needed to be acknowledged! Thank you.“

“This is the first review I've ever written (seriously!), and to be honest I'm writing it as I sit here with a friend of mine looking at the website, talking about miscellaneous stuff (like me not having ever written a review), and I was telling her about when my partner and I went to Zuzu's Petals a couple of years ago (my friend will be in Cambridge soon and I was giving her a recommendation).
We love this place! We're not regulars as we only go to Boston occasionally to see my partner's sister and family, but whenever we're in town we try to go at least one night. It's so refreshing to have a space with no phones, at least for a little while, YA KNOW?!? Of course I'm writing this on a screen, so the irony is not lost on me, but a break from screens? I'll take it.
Last time we were there the record player (vinyl, of course!) was playing Bowie, Stones among others - again, refreshing to hear full albums - and I think we had a cheese plate and few glasses of wine and of course dessert. It's always been a nice time for us and we highly recommend! And thus dear reader we reach the conclusion of my post: my friend and I both agree, since I'm sharing this restaurant suggestion with her, why not share it with the world?!?!? (Like I said, it's my first time and this was fun to write...)“

“We love Dear Annie! The wine selection is amazing, we’ve never had a bad bite or sip. Shoutout to the onion dip and potato chips that we get every time. We’ve even hosted a private event here (the dear Annie staff was amazing) - it was our favorite gathering to date“

“We loved everything about this restaurant. We had a great table in the window, our server was so knowledgeable and her recommendations were outstanding and the food, the food!! We had a mix of meals, seafood, pasta, special truffle course, and the chocolate cookies. Every single bit was delicious. We will definitely be back - if we can get a coveted table!“

“A treasure of a restaurant on busy Cambridge St - walk through the door and you’re in a different world. Servers quickly become friends. Great spot for a romantic dinner for two but still a place where a solo diner feels welcome. Wonderful menu with choices for the adventurous and not so adventurous eater. My new favorite spot for lunch or dinner in Boston.“

“By far the best, authentic Italian food in the North End. We have dined at several restaurants but the service, ambience and food is the best! They make their own pasta and sauces daily. I cannot recommend Casarecce enough. Delicioso.“

“Great food and great service! I even got gluten free chicken parm and spaghetti which was excellent! They have a wonderful food and drink menu. Our server Jess was was excellent as well. The manager Nick greeted us when we came in and found us a great table by the window. So the bottom line is, this is a great restaurant and I'm so happy we found this little gem! We will be back!“

“An excellent dinner. Purple carrots! Lemon potatoes! Tahini mushroom with an egg! Blue fish! Good service. Guy ran down The block to return my bracelet which had fallen off! They give you the check in a Copy of the Constitution! Recommend but why are you not accessible! Such a contradiction of your stated philosophy. Should at least put it on your website with your apology“

“I have walked by this place for 3 weeks while here on business and they were not opened 😩!! Finally I asked people at the Encore and they had no idea when they were open which was very disappointing! That being said I SCORED!! Friday and Saturday they are open and let me tell you they should be open way more often as this place was beyond phenomenal!! The two stand outs that seriously make this place amazing are Rich and Ayoub!! Honestly the presentation on my board was phenomenal and I forgot to take a photo before devouring it! The wine choice was far better than my original choice. I honestly would have eaten here every day I was here if it would have been open!! Whomever makes these decisions really doesn’t understand what a solid gem this place is and its potential! I honestly am so thankful I decided to check on last time to see if they were open! Thank you so much Rich and Ayoub!! Cheers to a fantastic experience!!“

“We went there for our wedding anniversary, and they went above and beyond to make us feel special. My wife doesn't drink alcohol so they even made sure to bring some complimentary non-alcoholic beverage option when bringing drinks to celebrate. Our waiter was great and made sure to check up on us regularly.“

“Everyone was so friendly and great food. I love seafood and I am glad they had it. I glad they closed their kitchen late at night like 11 pm. I could enjoy a meal without reservations. Excellent five stars for me.“

“Everything about Limoncello’s is terrific. I started back in the early 2000’s having lunch when visiting family that lives in Chelsea. Then we came this past summer for my son’s 10th birthday. We dined there Friday and Saturday night this past weekend because my son loves it so much. If you haven’t tried it, then get there! It’s the best I’ve had in the North End! Maurizio is a gentleman and his family treated us wonderfully. Chico is a great server and LuLu is quick witted, kind, and BEAUTIFUL! Every staff member was great…especially one person that really made my boy feel special.“

“Bricco Panetteria is a hidden gem nestled in Boston’s North End, renowned for its artisanal breads and pastries. Located at 11 Board Alley, just off Hanover Street, this bakery is tucked down a narrow alleyway and accessed via a staircase leading to a cozy, basement-level shop. Established by restaurateur Frank DePasquale, Bricco Panetteria was created to supply fresh bread to his local restaurants. The bakery offers a selection of handcrafted breads, including olive ciabatta, prosciutto and parmesan-stuffed ciabatta, miche (a rustic rye loaf), sunflower bread, and brioche. Their pastries, such as the sfogliatella—a flaky pastry filled with sweet ricotta and citrus—are also highly praised. Note that the bakery operates on a cash-only basis.
Adjacent to Bricco Panetteria is Bricco Salumeria & Pasta Shop, another establishment by Frank DePasquale. This Italian deli specializes in homemade pastas, sauces, and a variety of imported goods, including olive oils, vinegars, and cheeses. Notably, Bricco Salumeria is acclaimed for its Italian sausages, which are made in-house using traditional spices and methods. The shop also offers made-to-order sandwiches, allowing customers to enjoy their freshly prepared meats and cheeses on the spot.   
Both establishments are part of what locals refer to as “Bricco Alley,” offering an authentic Italian culinary experience away from the bustling main streets.
We just picked up some freshly sliced prosciutto here, and it was incredible—melt-in-your-mouth tender, perfectly aged, and full of rich flavor. You can taste the quality and craftsmanship in every bite.“

“Always a friendly encounter with the staff. They ask what you want,they make it literally right in front of you and you pay and eat. Nice and hot the way it should be. No hassle no waiting. Whenever I'm in East Somerville I stop in no matter what to give them business. I try to help out the local stores. They have been doing things for yrs here and if it ain't broke don't try to fix it. Thank you for always being reliable and consistent. Hard to come by these days.“

“Mark and Toni's might have a bit of an outdated atmosphere, but their food is really really good. I eat out about once a week, and this is usually my go-to place 50% of the time. Their side of chicken tenders is the best in the area, the meatless sub is super well balanced and has excellent flavor, and they have good other things too (fries, chicken parm, etc.). I will say that their pizza is mid.“

“An impromtu visit to celebrate a work win. Always a fantastic meal, my wife's favorite steak prep method with the butter on her ribeye. The creamed spinach and au gratin potatoes are big faovorites too. Wine and coctails were equally satisfying and very well prepared. Service was very polite and timely but not obtrusive. Never an easy task and usually a challenge keeping our teenager's water glass full and napkin supply sufficient! We'll be back again soon!“

“Not only was it AMAZING authentic Italian but our server Luis P made our dining experience over the top! Everything looked so good on the menu that we decided Luis should surprise us with what we should eat. He asked a few questions about allergies and preferences and then surprised us with different dishes. He has great taste! He also knew what wine to pair with it. He is outstanding and next time we come we will ask for Luis P!“
