We had a beautiful table right in the front window, great for people watching. We were asked about drinks and asked to have an app put in. We were told that we could not put in an appetizer until we knew our full order. It went downhill from there. The truffle fries were gross and soggy. I have the penne a la vodka and was talked into the house pasta which was also soggy. Would not go back. Very disappointing.

Decent food. I have definitely had better in the North End. Caprese & calamari apps were fine. I got chicken piccata for my meal. It was pretty good. My husband got chicken with homemade pasta in vodka sauce & said it was great. Bread pudding for dessert was delish.

Food was quite a bit saltier than usual, just didn’t have the same feel as the old Trattoria Zooma unfortunately. Nice enough staff, the wine selection was lovely and yes, the bread pudding is still delicious.

You can't go wrong with anything you order. Lasagna, gnocchi, cavatelli all homemade pastas and sauces. Salads fresh and mixed just right. Service is extraordinary and attentive. Valet is so great. No worries about where to park.Highly recommend!

Service was great, food and drinks were excellent! Our table became cold every time the front door opened for the first part of our dinner, so that was a little uncomfortable, but improved as the night went on. Portions are not huge, but the quality was very high. We had a wonderful evening here.
