This a beautiful restaurant with delicious food and exceptional service. The appetizers were fabulous, all of us loved our meals, and the bread pudding was the best I’ve ever had. I had messaged ahead that my family needed a quiet, private table to discuss a cancer diagnosis. The compassion of the manager who greeted us when we arrived was so sincere, and all the staff members went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and given privacy. We will definitely return, hopefully next time when I’m cancer free! Thank you again for helping us through a difficult night.

Family lunch after the Pops and it was wonderful. We’re a family of 6 and the food was inventive, filling, and so tasty.

This place is a hidden gem in Boston. The ambiance is excellent, fun place to hang out with great food and drinks (not too mention the fact that the cups were really cool - the shark is priceless). I would highly recommend this spot.

The food, expertly prepared, was delicious, with staff, including hostess, server, and assistant, working well together to create a synergy to our benefit. Holiday ambience was woven nicely into the experience as ostensibly no patrons had canceled for the evening notwithstanding the snow coming down outside in ample quantity; thank God the cabs were all running on time.

Better than the North End. We both got the Frutti de marre. Pasta and lots of fresh seafood! The chacutteri board was one of the best we have had. Wine selection great. Enjoyed a bottle of Borrolo. Making the rez was easy. We were a few minutes late and they sat us right away. Seem very organized with seating people quickly. Nice decor for Christmas. We were able to walk to the Emerson Colonial theater after dinner. It was a 3 min walk. We sat around 5 pm and had an app, dinner, and had time to spare getting to the show. Thank you Maggianos!

Papardelle pasta with sausage, brocolini and burratta was oustanding, aswed my cocktail The service, however, seemeed overwhelmed on a busy, but not that crowded Friday night, which they should have been prepared for, Visits from our waitress were almost non-existant to the point of having to seek her out.
