The food and drinks were good as was the overall atmosphere. The service was great as well, the server was very attentive and knowledgeable. The tables are very close together, so we could hear the conversations from the tables next to us, and viceversa. That ruined the mood of an otherwise good experience.

This restaurant just made our trip to Boston so much better. Our 10 year old has Celiac and can never get pasta - until tonight. Calamari, any pasta she wanted, salad, bread, etc. It was all delicious- we even ordered Gluten Free. The staff were amazing and the food was delicious. We will be back.
