Great place to check out. Sat on the roof deck with my husband and the food was really good. The sushi burrito and and the wings were exceptionally good. Wasn't crazy about the caramelized onions on my wings but the wings itself were perfect thin crispy. The crab cake was good but honestly I've had better because I like it a little crispy on the surface. Service was friendly and attentive. I would definitely come back here again it was a really nice ambiance.

Pleasant atmosphere, great food, upstairs deck for outside dining, social distancing and great services.

Atmosphere was nice. Service was very slow. I ordered a cocktail called "Hot and Spicy", and although I love a spicy cocktail, this was a little overboard. Hard to enjoy the cocktail itself and the food.I ordered the Chicken Parmesan, which was around $27. It was extremely underwhelming, very mediocre. For this price I would have expected excellent quality.

This is nothing like described. Looks like they were bought out and have a completely new menu by Alba. I personally wanted Italian, but sadly there is only one traditional pasta dish. The meatball starter was pretty good, but basic. The Mac&cheese was AMAZING!!! The diabolo was good, just not what I'm used to. Mashed potatoes were delicious. Pork Chop was a little dry. Over all pretty good experience, just need to update the listing.

I bring my wife here for the sights and raw bar Cool little vibe Music is never good when I'm here, but a few beers can fix that

They charged more to my card than I signed for... The food was good. The music was loud even though it was a Sunday evening, so we had to talk loudly to be heard. Most importantly, when I checked my bank statement, they overcharged my card by $25. Waiting for a response from the restaurant at this point.

Waitress doesn’t know what is Jäegermeister, only 2 kinds of unknown tequilas, , no draft beer, on menu said “wild caught salmon” but was brought farm raised salmon, I do know how wild caught looks, so overall not a good place to go, also music was very loud , had to yell to be heard.

Drinks and food are OK but the juke box ate my money and didn't let me play anything afterwards. Maybe put a sign up or something? Just saying...

We ate at the rooftop to enjoy the weather and the food came out so delicious. We had the bolognese, seafood fra davioli, and salmon. The seafood fra davioli included half a lobster tail and a claw. The bolognese was one of the best I've ever had. Every dish was great. Would def come again to try other dishes

I have been here for dinner several times. It can be a bit confusing as the building/door is under the banner of Alba steakhouse and the Zef Cicchetti part is all faded like it doesn't exist anymore. Fear not! Its all one and the same. You have to go to the door on the corner to get into the establishment, including the rooftop dining. The rooftop is very nice, with a full bar and tv, that is perfect for warm days.The restaurant is basically broken into three sections. The upstairs rooftop deck, and then the three dining areas downstairs. One is mainly booths and seems more upscale dining. Then there is a bar/dining area and then a smaller table section beyond that. I have eaten at each of these except the downstairs bar.Each time, the servers have been attentive without rushing. The food was always DELICIOUS. If you are a big seafood lover like I am, you can order crab cakes and raw oysters for an appetizer. These were the best raw oysters I've ever had in my life. For entrees we got the Diavolo linguine and the grilled octopus. Both were very tasty. We also got an order of truffle fries with turned out to be addictive and I have ordered every time I have returned to this place since! It all paired nicely with a Chianti red wine.Suitable for solo, friends, families and dates. More upscale and pricey but well worth it in the food!Parking can be a bit of a run around on this busy restaurant street, so you may need to drive up and around the side streets to find parking. There is a small free parking lot on the corner of Hancock and Walter J. Hannon that may have spots.

Very fancy nice place for a special occasion. The price makes it hard at least for me to make it a regular spot. The quality of ingredient is excellent and service is attentive. One of the best in Quincy if not the best.

I went here January 2020 for dinner at around 8 pm. We basically had the restaurant to ourselves.

We also got an order of truffle fries with turned out to be addictive. It all paired nicely with a Chianti red wine. I would for sure come here again. Suitable for solo, friends, families and dates. More upscale and pricey of a setting but well worth it in the food!
