    The food was meh, I wouldn’t really call it Italian. The really really good meatballs were incredibly dense and didn’t seem like they were well mixes. The short rib gnocchi were ok (the short rib was surprisingly dry and tough), the filet and pork milanese also not great. Overall I wouldn’t go back.

    Really great experience. The waitstaff was just the right level of attentive. Food was excellent (lots of great choices) and the atmosphere very cosy and romantic. We ate early (5:30) before a show so it was relatively quiet. Would definitely recommend!

    We had a great dining experience. Location is great, ambiance in restaurant was very good and with a window seat overlooking Hanover street we were plenty entertained. The appetizers, meatballs, braised short ribs and deviled eggs were excellent. For main course we had chicken dish, Bolognese and linguine shrimp all were outstanding. Highly recommend for a dining experience in the north end.

    Nothing we ate had any flavor whatsoever. Even the focaccia bread they served was flavorless and hard! We ordered the bolognese and the fettuccine and mushroom pastas and we could not finish either dish. Both were flavorless with overcooked noodles. Truly horrible and I will never return.
