Some favorites from our review: eggplant, ricotta, and basil; chicken, mushroom, and fontina; and the best-selling bacon, mashed potato, and scallion. Read more.
This is the best pizza in Brookline. Eat at the bar so you can try all their fun toppings: mashed potato/bacon, mushroom/ricotta, tortellini...
Otto just started a fundraising series with BU student groups - that plus their stellar pizza make them a must visit during our conference.
The Pollo Involtini is to die for. Port wine reduction over chicken breasts stuffed with spinach, fontina and prosciutto. The penne & sauce on the side is a bonus. Delicious.
You don't need to go to the North End for generous portions of well-prepared, gently priced Italian-American classics and originals. One of our critic's 10 under-the-radar gems: http://bo.st/Pb3zgP Read more.
Carlo's Cucina Italiana is a great little Italian restaurant in the heart of Allston that tastes like it should be on Hanover Street in the North End.
Love the Lobster & Fontina al Forno special!
Best Way to Go is to be with 4 or more friends and family to get the Family Style Meals. Basically All You Can Eat. Completely Worth It and Plenty of Wine!
Every Wednesday is Wine Wednesday at Maggianos with a tasting from 5 to 7pm (at the bar) along with complimentary hors d’oeuvres.
Try the Wild Mushroom Pizza - With Fontina cheese & white truffle oil
Best restaurant in the North End! They offer a true traditional Italian experience with affordable prices and a great atmosphere. Perfect for a date night or a group outing. Enjoy!
delicious pizzas!
Braised Short Rib with Fontina (no onions) = heaven.
My boyfriend and I are non dairy so we get what you'd call a "Ron burger" it's the mushroom burger without cheese and Add bacon. Love when they put extra truffle sauce! Great to stop in for lunch!
Two words: truffle fries.
The Polenta with poached eggs were amazing! I highly recommend it if you are cool with fontina cheese mixed with it.
Great service, fabulous bar, a comfortable inviting restaurant reminiscent of neighborhood trattorias found in Rome. The menu is steeped in the Roman roots of simplicity, custom and comfort.
Get the Rigatoni with Sausage!!! Delish! Also the ricotta appetizer! Yum
Onion soup and short rib! You must have with Irish coffee for dessert.
If they offer a meal with "pan-seared angel hair pasta," go for it. The result is like a baked pasta waffle, in the best way.
This place is unreal!! Try the short rib...you won't regret it!
The service was exceptional!! The steak was great! For sides, the lobster macaroni & cheese and the creamy corn. I also liked the cocktail shrimps for appetizers.
Filet mignon!! And the corn on side
AMAZING. $35 Mangia Monday’s pasta special is incredible. Their tiramisu is to die for & everyone is so sweet!
The arancini is from another world, so good it is. Lobster pasta was very good as well. The Tiramisu is deconstructed, resulting in a dessert that is too different from the original for my taste.
Basically, the gnocchi is worth a visit by itself.
Pretty outstanding cocktails. Gnocchi great and the Veal with lobster risotto is amazing. Anything wood grilled is fantastic. Wine list huge, they have everything you would want.
