    We had a reservation and it was so busy we waited about 15 mins for a table. It was odd that they took a walk in group of 3 women before us. It was so packed with loud music that we had to lean in and yell over the table to talk to each other. We shared the calamari and it was done well; lightly fried. My friend loved her gnocchi it was very cheesy. I had the Frutti de Mari over risotto and it was delicious. Next time when I come back I’ll arrive early.

    One of my favorites in the North End. Great, authentic Italian-American food; very good sauce ( and I’m Italian, and have a high standard), seafood dishes are excellent, and they even had a couple of roaming singers this time who were excellent. We had a great experience.

    Opera singers randomly showed up and sung, too loud, and then went table to table looking for money. Food was ok at best, nothing to write home about. Service was good, prices were a bit steep for the quality.

    Authentic, and a friendly/family atmosphere. Excellent! Hopefully, when you arrive for your dinner, there will be live singers. Made the evening more memorable!
