Came here to get brunch to go and the food was amazing and the owner was extremely nice! I got the croc monsieur and the panini with porchetta and a croissant and they were all delicious! Even the side potatoes and salads were yummy. I would highly recommend this place for breakfast/lunch.

My new favorite restaurant. The staff is also delightful. We shared 5 appetizers, all delicious., the octopus was great! Best tira misu I ever had. In my mind I am already a regular. This quality cooking is very hard to find in Boston.Vegetarian options: Eggplant parm, cauliflower salad, beet salad, several bizzas both Bianco and Rosso

Other than Comfort Kitchen, this is my current favorite spot in Dorchester. Pizzas are fantastic and so was the chef's chopped Caesar.

Took my girlfriend on a dinner date and we both loved it. Since we were the last group of diners, they gave us free pastries at the end of our meal. We will definitely be coming back for brunch.

So rare to find a local small place with such exceptional service, food and lively atmosphere. The eggplant and truffle pizza were amazing along with the apps and dessert. Our waiter, Leo, spoke to us with a heavy Italian accent blended with the background noise made us feel like we were back in Italy with all the same hospitality and warmth that makes visiting that country such a pleasure.

I judge restaurants by two dishes (if they're on the menu) - mussels and Caesar salad. I was thrilled to see the mussels as a special during our visit. They were steaming hot, plump, perfectly cooked, and the broth was amazing! My colleagues and I loved every dish we ordered and left room for desserts which were sumptuous. Chef Stefano made a point to visit all tables once service had slowed. We felt welcomed and appreciated! Service was flawless and the coziness and atmosphere were perfection.
This is by far the best Italian restaurant in Boston. The tastes and flavors are just like eating in Italy. The pizza melts in your mouth and the pasta is to die for. The specials are always a must try. On my short list of go to restaurants.

Legitimately incredible Italian brunch. The food was fresh and immaculately prepared. Service was quick and friendly. The entire menu looked divine.
