Good stuff, lives up to the hype. The waitress was a riot! Portions were huge, especially on the Chicken Parm! Wish they had a few more beer options. It's worth the wait to come check this place out.
Great wait staff, delicious food. Rather tight seating and a bit of a wait (outside in the cold weather) but definitely worth it. Reasonable prices and fairly extensive menu selections.
Amazing food AND our waitress Teresa was hysterical. She Elevated the great food into a fantastic experience. Suggestion try the ravioli as an app, I promise you will thank me.
I stopped her with my husband for a quick bite to eat. Well let me tell you this place is remarkable. I ordered the The Fat Clamenti and The Godfather sub, both were unbelievably delicious and our server Lucille was a gem. We will return again!!!
Now I understand why there is such a wait to get into this place--the food is fantastic! The staff are quick, friendly, very helpful with questions. Everything is fresh, and staff are willing to create vegetarian options not on the menu. Portions are huge!!! There isn't a full bar, so beer and wine only. A long wait to get in, but worth it. A must if you're in the Boston area.
We went for an early dinner. The service and food were average. Very generous portions. The homemade cheese ravioli was good but a little thick and tough (size was unique) and another veal w/asparagus dish yielded some tough pieces of veal. The pasta al forno and veal cutlet were good. For us it averaged about $30/person including tip. It looked like it might be a good place for a lingering intimate dinner date.
We were so excited to visit the restaurant after seeing the lobster ravioli on diners drive ins and dives. My husband and I even copied the recipe and made them. Since we,were vacationing in the area we would stop and get the ravioli. They were Excellent. However the service was really,not that good.We went around 230 on a Wednesday for a late lunch and our waitress was kind of miserable and I really don't like to complain about stuff like this. She told us to sit where ever and disappeared for 10,minutes, no menus, no waters. The young busgirl who was very friendly and attentive checked in on us more than our waitress who just seemed like she couldn't be bothered. I don't expect people to be perky All the time, but her attitude kind of ruined the experience, even my husband said something and he doesn't care enough to notice this sort of stuff. 4 stars for the ravioli. 2 stars for service
Great experience. Used the "wait list". Notified ten minutes before table was ready. Terrific waitress. Shrimp scampi appetizer and Veal Saltimboca we're the best I've ever had.
Average everything.
Be sure to make a reservation even if they tell you you don't need to.
Before 5 is best to get there.
Prices high.
Staff crude and lack finesse
Food just ok, calamari was good but a lot.
Poor process. They take your number, when they call you you have 10 minutes to return. Watched empty tables sit waiting for people to return.
I would never wait again. Actually I won't be back again.
The service was excellent, knowledgeable of menu and huge portions and very reasonable.
Over-rated! Equally as good as all the mediocre North End Italian joints. Lots of cream and butter will make anything taste good enough.
Best hole in the wall place outside the north end. Homemade pasta is to die for and the service is amazing with their personalities that enhance the experience. Food is outstanding and you will never be disappointed or leave hungry. Been going here since I was a kid and look forward to every time I head there. If you haven't tried it here you haven't lived
Truly a gem! But make a reservation! An appetizer and main course is WAY more than enough food for two people. The layered eggplant was a work of art and the rest of the menu was equally as impressive. Small venue, big menu, worth the hype.
Wonderful place amazing food nice staff! Everything is on point! Nice touch that the place is small intimate setting! You better get there early because it fills up fast and I got there 3pm when they open on Saturday and As time went on they even started adding tables to meet the demand! 6 people or more you have to make a reservation! A MUST EAT place if your in Boston!
