Excellent Italian restaurant in Back Bay neighborhood. Highly recommended Get reservations as this place is busy. We had excellent food and service. I’d go back next time in Boston

Such a popular place!

A simply wonderful place for dinner. Seeing all the people dine there confirmed that we were in for a wonderful dinner.

I truly enjoyed my linguine with clams. Lots of clams. Al dente pasta. Simply fantastic. Others at our table ordered shrimp scampi and pizza.

We are so glad we found this restaurant.

Enjoy!

Excellent location, food and atmosphere. Ate on the patio. The food was delicious. Not over or under seasoned. Had the garlic bread, shrimp scampi, burrata ravioli, and spinach gnocchi. Definitely worth the visit. Will be back again.

Had a really long day and this place made me forget all about it. Great service, fantastic atmosphere, food was amazing, and I got to enjoy it all while peacefully people watching and enjoying the light rain. My server was also adorable, super recommend this place :-)

Food was excellent. It was however unfortunate that one of the meals served was the wrong one. It took about 6 minutes for the correct dish to be served. The main complaint however was that we were charged for something we didn't order....it wasn't a large value so was missed when we paid the bill.....Make sure you check the receipt carefully before paying!

Overrated Italian restaurant. The appetizers were great. Then, it went downhill. Service is extremely slow and spread thin. Tables around us were complaining. The entrees were bland or too acidic for our taste, could not finish. Will try something next time I’m in the area.

Cute little spot that is very elegant and cozy! It is a great spot to try and enjoy some italian cuisine. I had appetizers: brussel sprouts with chorizo and prosciutto wrapped pears. My favorite out of the two is definitely the brussel sprouts with chorizo! For entrees, i tried the bolognese and short ribbed pasta! Both are delicious but i maybe liked the short ribbed pasta slightly more. I had to try the dessert which was the tiramisu. The waiter told us that the tiramisu is made by an Italian elder every morning so it could be had the next day. I enjoyed the tiramisu with a cup of cappuccino. The portion sizes are excellent and will keep you full and happy!

The tiramisu is worth trying out and sharing it with another person. They did an excellent job with the taste of the meal and balancing it out to ensure that every customer leaves with a happy tummy! The customer service was wonderful, too!

The prices are fair. It was great that they also have a mocktail selection so if you do not drink alcohol, like myself, try out the mocktails! I had the passion for mojito and it was good!

I highly recommend this restaurant in the area!

The bread was by far the best part of the meal. Chewy and fluffy and delicious. It was disappointing that a second bread basket cost extra. Everything else was alright. My pesto pasta was under seasoned and the meatball on top looked like uncooked brains. It wasn’t tasty. My friend got the vegan impossible ravioli and he liked it. I got the arugula cranberry goat cheese salad which was fairly well done. The candied nuts on it were delicious and just the right amount of sweet. The shrimp didn’t quite go with the dish but they were well seasoned. I probably won’t return as nothing was stellar but overall it wasn’t a bad experience.
