Will be back.
Recommended by a local and Giacamo’s did not disappoint. Short wait for our party of 5. Food was amazing!! The fracano sauce is to die for…just the right amount of spice and heat. Highly recommend and don’t give up on the line as it moved fairly quick on a Sunday afternoon for us.

Giacomo's Boston North End is a family-owned restaurant that has recently undergone a change in ownership. The restaurant maintains its charming ambiance, though some reviews mention that the love and attention to detail may be lacking. The menu offers a variety of dishes, including mussels, clam chowder, lobster ravioli, and salmon with sun-dried tomato cream sauce. While some reviewers have praised the flavor of these dishes, others found the sauces to be lacking in taste.
The service has been described as rushed, with some parties feeling pressured to finish their meals quickly. However, the ordering process is straightforward, with a simple selection of pasta, main dish, and sauce. It is important to note that the restaurant is cash-only.
Despite some criticisms, the restaurant has its highlights. The fried squid is a popular appetizer, and the mixed seafood pasta is a visual and gastronomic spectacle. Topped with an abundance of seafood and a rich lobster-based sauce, it is a generously portioned dish perfect for seafood lovers. Customers have also praised the lobster ravioli, with one reviewer claiming it is the best they have ever had while dining out.
