    Atmosphere was great, food was good, staff were very friendly. My only complaint is that we had a 6:30 reservation and did not get seated until 7:15. And, it would have been longer but another party cancelled. They were very apologetic but felt they could have at least offered dessert on the house.

    Food and service were very good with one exception the dessert (tiramisu) was lackluster which seems like a layup for a well known spot in the North End.

    Great food and service. Only disappointment was very limited dessert choices and no decaf coffee. But definitely would visit again.

    Slow service. Bruschetta was yummy and very filling. My meal was ok and heavy on cream. I don’t think I would go back.

    Have dined here several times and have never been disappointed. The quality of the food is always excellent and fairly priced for the portion size they offer. One of Monica’s great qualities is its friendly service. The wait staff is very attentive and can provide wine recommendations upon request. Kitchen service is generally quick even when the restaurant is busy and have never had anything cooked incorrectly. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant when visiting the North End. Will definitely be back.

    1st time dining here and at the suggestion of a friend had tge parmigiana alla vodka...has spice but was the most tender perfectly cooked chicken parm I've ever had. Everything from appetizer to dessert to wine selections was fantastic. Highly recommend.

    The food was phenomenal and the bartender and server were both very kind and attentive. The mushroom pasta with shrimp was especially good. The only hiccup was with the check in and reservations…make sure you have your email confirmation handy!
