Second time we've been here. Intimate, cozy space, with attentive, friendly wait staff. Food is wonderful with huge portions. The fried calamari was to die for: my innovative riff on sardinian pasta with ricotta sauce was out of this world. Steve's Linguine with salmon was great. We'll be back!
Took family of 4 down on Saturday in the summer. What a find! No line, great service, great suggestions but the food was fabulous. And the price was reasonable. Everything was perfect. Salad, lunch portions, sangria, everything. Sat in the cool quite for an hour just enjoying and resting. Walked out and wondered if I should tell anyone waiting on the street still trying to get into the tourists restaurants. My 17-year old said no, this was our find.
Stay off the beaten paths my friends. Discover your own gems.
There really is only one Italian restaurant in Boston's North End. Great food, delicious wine and wonderful people. I guess that is why they have been there over 20 years! Do you know any other restaurant that has accomplished that? It's fun place too. We always have our Christmas party there and if I'm in town I make certain to stop in for a bite. Enjoy.
Great food and friendly service. This restaurant focuses on Sardinian cuisine, so it's not your typical red-sauce Italian restaurant, and is a nice change of pace for the North End. The salmon pasta with black fettuccine was very good with an abundant amount of fresh and smoked salmon, the saffron gnocchi were unique in a good way(if a bit heavy), the malloreddus alla campidanese was very hearty and satisfying. The Ossobuco, while not particularly Sardinian, was very flavorful and fork tender.
The bread and oil were fantastic.
The house white wine was tasty and affordable.
My fettuccine carbonara was awesome.
Wait wasn't terrible
The food was amazing, and our waiter was fantastic. Other patrons got obnoxiously loud though- it's a very small place and got very hard to talk.
My favorite Italian restaurant on Planet Earth. Don't believe me? Try Maurizio's Involtini di Melanzane (rolled slices of eggplant stuffed with ricotta cheese, basil, sun dried tomatoes and parmesan cheese, topped with tomato sauce) as an appetizer, and then the Linguine ai Frutti di Mare (shrimp, scallops, clams, mussels and calamari served in a spicy lobster based tomato sauce and tossed with linguine) as a main course. Ask Linda to choose a bottle of wine for you. Maurizio's food is proof of the existence of God. Period.
Great ambiance but most importantly amazing food! Unique Sardinian restaurant experience. A must try! Staff super friendly. Will be back!
This place is amazing!! Great service, great portions, overflowing amounts of fresh seafood, and great taste. Beautifully decorated and beautifully tasting dessert.
Pretty, quiet place at the end of the row. Everything was delicious, and the gnocchi quite possibly the best ever. Exemplary service, too.
