This is a restaurant in the town I live in.... Lots of great venues but to eat, drink and enjoy the atmosphere, this is a gem! Check their website for days and hours!

Still just as good as the first time we went before the pandemic. Great customer service with an exceptionally attentive wait staff. Amazing tasting, looking and portion sized Italian food paired with some delicious cocktails as well.

Phenomenal!! Can not wait to go back!! We sat at bar and had an awesome bartender, Melissa! We had the meatballs, sautéed calamari, chicken saltimbocca and the caprese salad. The most tender calamari I've ever had. Everything was cooked perfect. Lemoncello martinis were yummy!!

Wouldn’t serve us because our IDs were out of state IDs despite showing other cards as well as proof- brand new to Watertown and was a very disappointing welcome

This place is a cute locally owned restaurant. Don't judge a book by its cover. The inside might need a little TLC but the food was wonderful. Highly recommend the apps! We got meatballs, shrimp, and eggplant rollatini. All of them were fantastic! The lobster ravioli and chicken parm were great too. Our server Andrea was also very nice!

Good food, but we were almost the only folks in the place at 8pm on a Friday night? Does someone know something we don't? ?

Been wanting to try this place and glad we finally did because we'll be coming back soon. Came early on a Friday night (they open at 5pm) and the restaurant didn't start getting packed yet.We got the Greek salad, calamari (sautéed and not breaded and fried like most places), seafood Fra Diavolo (we got one spicy and one not spicy and both were delicious with plenty of seafood), veal marsala and veal parmesan. Everyone loved their entrées. Everything was cooked to perfection and not too salty. Our server was very nice and attentive which always makes the dining experience that much more enjoyable!

I visited Porcini's on my vacation in Boston with my boyfriend. The service was fantastic, even with a waitress in training. Everyone was lovely and friendly the moment we stepped through the door. We got our menus, drinks, and appetizer fast and the food was AMAZING. We got the brussel sprouts appetizer with apricot and pancetta bits, my boyfriend got the chicken parmesan entree, and I got the stuffed ravioli with mushrooms special. I highly recommend this restaurant! It's definitely worth a visit.
Loved the experience here! Highly recommend Porcini's. The fireplace was a great touch!

First time dining here after driving by for years and I'll definitely be back! Food was very authentic and fresh. Some of the best pasta I've ever eaten. Great service and had a very welcoming and homey environment- fireplace was a nice bonus on a cold winter evening. Would choose this place over the North End any day.

The storefront is a bit unassuming so if you are driving you need to keep your eyes open to not miss it. We ordered two of the burgundy beef to go.

Went there for the first time. My friend and I thought the food was great! We had the eggplant rolatini, the Cesar salad and the lobster ravioli. Everything was delicious!!

Walked in on a cold and rainy Halloween evening and was greeted and walked to be sat, passing a warm and inviting fire place. Megan, my server was knowledgeable, accommodating, pleasant , and offered fast service. Went in for a quick dinner before a movie. The food was hot, fresh, and oh so delicious. The patrons were friendly and so was the entire staff and chef, who took the time to greet my friends and I and thank us for dining. I will definitely return the next time I visit Boston.
