    Waited more then 40 mins to sit after our reservation. They routinely do not manage reservations well, at all. Terrible system that doesn't manage the OpenTable reservations at all

    We go to Panza’s every trip to Boston. Always a wonderful experience. We had the Burata as an appetizer to go with the delicious crusty bread. We also had a bottle of their local Chianti. My wife had the Veal Marsala and I had Veal Panza, like Veal Marsala but with roasted red tomatoes, spinach, and pine nuts added. All was delicious, service was excellent, in a small quaint North End Italian restaurant. Oh and the price was very reasonable. Make a reservation.

    The service was great but the food was not what we expected. Pasta was like the one I would do back home and we wanted a restaurant italian pasta. I got the Beef and Veal tortellini and it was bland.

    If you are in Boston and headed to the North End for Italian, a majority of the restaurants will give you a good meal. But, if you wish to have a great meal, don't miss reserving here. I usually reserve dinner right after reserving my flight to Logan. I have been eating here for almost 10 years and they never miss! Every dish on the menu is terrific! But I usually end up with whatever the special happens to be for that evening.
