We found a cute little place named Tony and Elaine’s. Great authentic food in northern Boston. A bit outside of the center “neighborhood” but super easy to get to.

We had Caesar salad, meatballs and the garlic bread as an appetizer. All were good. Nothing really special, but decent. We ordered the lasagne for our meal to share. The lasagne was supposed to have short rib in it. Instead, it seemed just like sausage. The portion was small for $30 and it was relatively flat for lasagne. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t what we were expecting and again nothing special. Disappointing given we were expecting short rib. We probably won’t return.
