The atmosphere was fantastic, with festive holiday decorations and a vibrant vibe! The food was excellent—we started with the house-made focaccia and a Caesar salad, followed by the chicken parm and spaghetti with meatballs. My only suggestion would be to serve the bread warm; since it's not complimentary, the added warmth would elevate the experience. Overall, everything else was spot on!

Delicious food and wonderful service . Only complaint is the $9 charge for bread (focaccia) . We shared the harvest salad , eggplant rollatini and butternut ravioli , everything was great and the restaurant is beautiful. I definitely plan on going back

My husband and I went to Madre Osteria for our 46th anniversary. We had our choice of seating out in the beautiful patio. There are hanging and potted flowers and a view of the Neponset River with both tables with umbrellas as well as seating along the perimeter. The servers were all so warm and welcoming and wished us a Happy Anniversary. For cocktails I had an Aperol Spritz which was yummy and my husband had a Peroni beer. The food was excellent. For an appetizer we shared grilled polenta and goat cheese which was delicious. For our entree's I had steak with fingerling potatoes and broccoli rabe and my husband had the wild boar ragu with pasta. We had a great cabernet with our meal. We couldn't leave without dessert and so had the Tiramisu which was outstanding. We will definitely go back to Madre's and not just for a special occasion.

Beautiful place , the food was good , delicate flavors and good portions. We started with the mussels and harvest salad. Then ragú pappardelle and spaghetti bolognese both were delicious. Service was awful . Our young waitress only checked on us once and we had to get someone else to get us check after waiting for a long time . We didn’t get to order dessert because we got tired of waiting for her to come back .
