20 Best Italian Restaurants near Harvard

“It was delicious. We tried the wraps. Blt and spicy chicken ceaser.We also had spicy buffalo wings and fried shrimp for appetizers. All was very tasty. The staff was pleasant.We witnessed a customer come up and complain she had received the wrong pizza and that she what she had ordered had cost more. They quickly apologized for human error and made her a new hot pizza correctly. Then told her she could just keep the first one. I was impressed on the customer service.“

“One of my favorite Italian restaurants outside of the North End. Great food and service.“

“Very good lunch spot! Great tasty sandwich! Cute atmosphere.“

“Never been disappointed with the menu choices and even their Specials they offer for day to day afternoon lunch, appetizers in the later afternoon and the evening option of specials and of course their red wine sangria is the best 🍷👍. Thank you also to the friendly atmosphere and staff! Love live entertainment on Wednesday evenings but maybe perhaps On a Saturday afternoon/evening where I would love to sit outside with family or friends! Thanks again ~ this girls loves the sauce too which is why I always make a purchase and the holidays when my husband is able to purchase gift cards for some of his customers ~ woohoo“

“Just came from El Forno. Lunenburg had a pepperoni and pepper pizza. It was by far the best pizza I have ever had since the old days at the European in the northend. Great job Michael and crew always.“

“Just ordered a small bbq chicken pizza for lunch here for the first time and I was blown away by how good it was. I expected a pretty generic pizza, but what I got blew my expectations away. I will definitely make this my regular lunch spot if I am in the area for work.“

“This location used to be a little rough, but they seemed to have turned it around. The staff was quick, the managers were checking in with all tables multiple times throughout the meal, and everything was cooked well. I gotta say, it was exactly what I wanted, and it really couldn't have been any better of a trip to Olive garden.“

“Great Place always fresh and delicious“

“The food is 10/10. Old ownership wasn’t impressive, but the pizza here is 10/10. Highly recommend !!“

“We are often DiCapri customers and tonight we had an oops moment and dropped a pizza that was delivered. 100% our fault. We flipped it and were making it work when there was a knock at the door. Our delivery driver who had seen us drop it was back with a brand new piping hot pizza. This was customer service at its absolute best. So happy to support this business and will be proud (as well as embarrassed) to tell this story so others know how awesome they are!“

“We absolutely LOVE new London and miss it terribly!! We recently moved and can NOT find a pizza place where we are now that comes even close to new london!! The service is great very friendly family owned and you can see and feel that there!! The food is awesome, pizza is amazing, but they also have a wonderful verity of sandwiches, pasta dishes salads ect!! We absolutely recommend giving them a try you won't regret it!!!!“

“Great food, great prices and excellent staff!“

“This was my first order from Sorrento's. Order consisted of Meatball Parm sub, Chicken Parm sub, Mozerella sticks, Garlic Bread, Onion Rings, and French fries. The food was GREAT. Keep up the AWESOME work. You have another satisfied cutomer. Thank You!..“

“The food was delicious! I am not typically a sandwich or pizza gal (I'm just very particular about breads/crusts), and I was thoroughly impressed. The prosciutto and burrata sandwich was so good! Perfectly balanced and filling. We'll definitely be returning.“

“Easily my favorite place to eat in all of Massachusetts. First time back in over 10 years and the steak subs are still the best!“

“The food here is delicious and the staff are trying their best.
Entry into this establishment needs to be revamped. Their current system seems to be self seating.
I noticed multiple people enter and stand in the front end, not sure if they should seat themselves, or wait to be seated. Many people stood for 5-10 minutes before being addressed by the staff.
This place either needs a “seat yourself” sign, or a host/hostess table to fix the issue.
When we entered, we stood for five minutes, weren’t addressed by staff, then sat ourselves down. It was about ten minutes after sitting before anyone acknowledged us.

With that being said, the staff were all very friendly.

Slater’s please change your seating system, it’s flawed, chaotic, and confusing.“

“I just started working in the Clinton area, and this place has instantly become my go to place for lunch. The subs are enormous. Today I tried their meatball sub, and it did not disappoint. The employees are all friendly, and the food is definitely above the pizza / sub shop norm.

Parking: There's 5-6 spots within 10 feet of the door and plenty of on street parking.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of room for the kids to dine in.“

“It was great, the place serves very good food and reminds me of when I lived in brasil. Its hard to find such a good place to eat here in Massachusetts, and the girl that stays in the front was great and very friendly, she spoke portuguese and helped me because my English is not very good. This is 10/10 absolutely love it“

“I came here with a group at 9pm on a Friday. We were able to put 3 tables together. Our food came out in stages based on what was ready first. The pastels were excellent. I prefer the chicken and cheese. I had the Super Gauchão Burger with steak. OMG it is tremendous--I have to bring half of it home. The X-Burger and chicken salad wrap are great. I tried caldo de cana, sugar cane juice, and it was so refreshing! I have to come back for the fried chicken and the Brazilian hot dog.

Parking: Street parking in a residential neighborhood“

“The food was delicious and fresh tasting. It wasn't salty, but was very flavorful. I had the eggplant Parm dish and the vegetable pizza. Will return again for some more great food and great service. The prices are a little steep because of the quality and taste of their food, so it's worth paying. Thanks again for a nice dining experience. Well done.“
