“Amazing food. Don't miss out on the pasta dishes or the bread. They actually make for great sharing apps. The staff is so nice and welcoming. Drinks are delicious and unique.”

“First time at IL PONTE! Definitely not our last time. Luigi made our experience one to remember with his expertise in making the best drinks and food recommendations. Brianne welcomed us on a crowded Friday (even though it was only 5:30) and accommodated us - a party of 2. 10 out of 10. Food was the best Italian food we’ve ever had. Staff was so welcoming and kind. Will be back again soon - on a Tuesday or Friday - because Luigi is the best! Thank you for a great experience ❤️”

“Went only once last night so don't want to knock any stars. But, my biggest suggestion is that please include pictures of sake bottles (even just labels) next to the title on your online menu. Right now, it's paragraphs after paragraphs of many many sakes. I got analysis paralysis after a few seconds.”

“Friendly welcome, pre boiled pasta but great meatballs and sauce, clean the plate chicken parmigiana, quick but not personable service. Good meal at a reasonable cost in an elegant setting in a beautiful historic town.”

“Wow, wow, and wow again! What a treat that my dear friend and I happened upon this GEM! At first glance it doesn’t look like much from the outside, but when you step inside it’s like entering a whole new world. It is elegant and beautiful, a fantastic combination of fine dining with an atmosphere like coming home. Such a quaint spot with the best quality Italian food I have ever had. Cristiano was the kindest server on the planet, so attentive, and so welcoming! As a worker in the food service industry, I was blown away! First off, drinks. To our surprise, Arancini has a BYOB policy (SO COOL! People had brought their own bottles of wine, which Cristiano offered to open and put on ice). Other than that, they offer your typical sodas, some juice, and a variety of sparkling and still water options. Let’s talk food. Right away, they bring fresh, warm, house-made bread, with fantastically seasoned dipping oil. Other than that, we started off with the Caesar salad and the friend mozzarella appetizer. The Caesar salad (despite it being just about the most basic thing that someone can order) was so well put together. It had just the right amount of dressing, and fresh grated, high quality parmesan cheese! The mozzarella app was quite possible the tastiest thing I have ever put in my mouth. Oh my god, it just about dissolved in my mouth. Imagine the best mozzarella sticks you’ve ever had in your life, but the cheese is so high quality and it is freshly battered and friend minutes before it is brought to your table. Never frozen - just made hot and fresh for you to eat. Don’t even get me started on the marinara sauce. Again, clearly house-made and so fresh. I could’ve had it as a soup! For a main meal I had the most delicious fettuccini Alfredo. The sauce was TO DIE FOR. The pasta was perfectly cooked (I didn’t know pasta could even taste like that ). I asked for chicken in the pasta and… oh. my. god. I have no words. I mean I can attempt to describe it but I won’t do it justice. Tender, JUICY, and you KNOW it’s authentic because the chicken was battered in egg. I was drooling before I took a single bite. I also added broccoli and it was SO PERFECT. The whole meal, it was just the best food I have ever had I swear. PLEASE give this place a shot! You’ll probably want a reservation because I don’t think there are more than 10 tables there! It’s small but mighty. Thank you Cristiano for making this experience incredible!”

“Awesome customer service! They were able to come through with an order with only a few days notice. Delivery was on time, matched our location and was one less thing we had to stress about on Game Day. Thank you!”

“Decided to walk through Allston on a grody, misty afternoon and look for some food. Walked in by chance and at my SO’s insistence that we give it a look. I loved everything about the aesthetic, and enjoyed the soft music playing in the background. Being able to choose the ingredients I wanted - knowing they were organic and that they looked more than delicious raw...that was the absolute best part. The gentleman at the front was supremely helpful and answered any question thrown at him - by anyone in the shop. The price was more than worth the amount of food received, and the care extended to us as guests was wonderful. I absolutely would recommend anyone to give this a try. Don’t hesitate to ask a question, you will definitely get an answer. :)”

“Really nice flavor on the carnitas and cabeza, solid lengua, and terrible carne asada tacos. Would say these tacos are smaller than used to (probably could get at this size and price in Manhattan which is saying something) so would just keep that in mind when ordering”

“We love this style of Asian fusion cuisine so we came by for dinner and were not disappointed. Staff are helpful, attentive, and super friendly. The cocktails are great, and the food was incredible. It's a higher end spot in a wealthy area so you have to expect costs to reflect that.”

“We came there 20 minutes before closing but they served us quickly with take out service. The dumplings were really great, the best I've ever tried. I'm a vegetarian so I ordered teokbokki because there weren't any fish cakes in it but we tasted a strong fish flavour so I assumed there was fish sauce inside, but not mentioned in the menu. I didn't ask for it, so it's partially my bad. But a vegan/vegetarian sign next to the dishes would be appreciated! Service fast and efficient”

“I had a great date night, it was our first time there and it was excellent. I was happy with everything from the food to the service from our server José. He was on point with everything, would love to have him next time again. But even the music was great, but obviously the food was the best of it all. Everyone should definitely check it out.”

“Incredible customer service, the kind that is rare to find! Above and beyond! The pastries are delicious. The Cruffins are light, airy and just the right amount of sweetness. We support small businesses, and this one is a hidden gem!”

“I expected more than corned beef out of a can from the description on the menu. The home fries were cold. Good sized portions and the service was adequate. We chose another breakfast place for the next day. Great location, though, in a walkable neighborhood .”

“I have lived in the Boston-esque area for twelve years and have eaten so many good meals, but the fish tacos here are the only meal I needed to have before my upcoming move out west(ern MA). Cocktails are fun and creative, service is 13/10, the XL portions of fries that require to-go boxes are the only fries I’ve ever found to reheat well, and if you’re lucky, Steve will be tending bar. I love going at the slightly quieter times but I’ll never gatekeep the euphoria experienced by a meal here. Bonus perks: Max & Chelsea have the best senses of humor, the murals on the patio are always amazing, the beer and wine selection are vast (also the mocktails!), and the decor always feels like your favorite “I Spy” book.”

“My all time favorite spot for spicy chicken sliders / tenders. Little pricy but It’s worth the taste. In the location I like the ambience and also the food is served hot, at other locations I have experienced serving cold sliders which not worth of enjoying. That’s the reason I drive to this location which is 30 minutes away from my place though I have another location 5 minutes away from my home. So far I might have recommended this place to atleast 50 people and guess what, no one was disappointed with the food. It’s the best best best spicy chicken sliders place which everyone would like to go back again and again. I would suggest not to take out the order you’ll miss the opportunity of enjoying the hot food. Last thing is, there fries are the best.
Vegetarian options: No vegetarian option I am aware of except fries”

“We went for the first time today and were not disappointed! We had the brioche roll, baguette and a croissant and they were all PERFECT. Soft, buttery and delicious. The owner was so kind and friendly too! My fiancé and I will be going every Sunday as a new tradition now!”

“My coworker drives from the North Shore for these croissants and I’m glad I finally tried them. I think the almond croissant and regular croissant are very good. The apple turnover was okay. I’m sure the canele is good too, but I think mine was very slightly underbaked. Will definitely come back.”

“Food is good depending on the cook. Wish it was more consistent. You can tell the difference clearly sometimes. On the expensive side but it’s the ONLY option on base after a certain time.
