Bricco’s star has been rising steadily since restaurateur Frank DePasquale revamped the menu to feature modern interpretations of regional Italian dishes.

Bricco has garnished superlative reviews from food writers in Boston and around the country – Best Guaranteed Meal in the North End and Best Pasta in Boston just two of the most recent accolades.

The talented kitchen team creates “boutique” Italian food, so-called because it is unique, personal and created for a select and sophisticated diner. The food is complemented by an enoteca (wine bar) with an exceptional selection of all-Italian wines.

Bricco also offers a sophisticated late night scene. The chic and energetic bar serves up great one of a kind cocktails as well as brick oven pizza with gourmet toppings such as prosciutto and fresh mozzarella from Italy in addition with appetizer selections.

    We enjoyed our dining experience here a lot. The food was well prepared and flavorful. I was surprised to see zucchini flowers on the menu in December but they were so stuffed and fried, the freshness wouldn’t have mattered. Ambiance lovely. Service was great though perhaps not as attentive as other places. Food was delicious, but everything seemed overly complicated rather than letting just simple but high quality ingredients sing, as I’ve seen done so well in Italy. I’ll definitely return!

    Bad experience. I usually go and love it but this experience felt extremely rushed and didn’t get our drinks until our entrees.

    We have been there twice. Outstanding food and drinks. Once again we had the zucchini flowers and the short ribs, among other things that were also fabulous. But those two items will bring us back again and again. A culinary experience. The martinis- magnificent.

    We have been coming for years… I love the ambiance. Festive as always. The waitress was rude… and had zero intrapersonal skill. The food was average. Not a standard meal I am use to a Bricco… I’m going to give them grace and today was just a random event. Will be amazing as usual next time!

    The food wasn’t the best, it was okay. The servers were rude, they came twice to clear my friends’s plate while she was still eating, not very inviting. Not sure if I’ll be back.
