   I have never been to a restaurant who has refused more bread.. Our server Antoietta D. questioned us when we asked for more bread, and then when we asked again, said she needed to charge us for it and then instead of doing so, refused us more and gave us the check as if we were done with her our meal. Never once asked if we were all set, needed another drink, and never even offered us dessert. I love this restaurant but she made this an awful experience and will likely not return due to her. She even follow us as we were leaving to thank us for her less than 20% tip, which she clearly deserved. Trattoria can thank Antoietta D. for the loss of a customer and bad review.

   My lower rating for food and service is due to two things; chicken and hovering. I had asked to add chicken to the ravioli di ricotta dish. The chicken was chewy and didn’t taste fresh. However, the ravioli dish itself was amazing. The staff were really quick to grab any dish on the table once empty. I felt like they were hovering and that made me feel rushed. I would go there again, if based on the food alone.

   this has become our North End go to. this most recent trip, I tried the fusilli special. It was incredible. We keep going back for the food and service. Table attendants are always oin the lookout to fill water glasses, clear plates, bring bread and parm and offer to go packaging. We have had Catino as our server before. He is familar with us, professional, suggestive and on point. I trust his recommendations and appreciate his hospitality.

   Came for lunch during Dine Out Boston. As always, the food and service were outstanding. Wife got the Pistachio martini. Daughter-in-law got the Expresso martini. Both were also outstanding. Love this place!

   I recently dined at a local restaurant and was impressed by the inviting ambiance, attentive service, and exceptional main courses. However, I was disappointed to find that the dessert menu was lacking, with no options available to conclude the meal on a sweet note. I hope that in the future, they will consider adding desserts to provide a complete dining experience.

   Everything was delicious. A truly authentic 50+ year family owned Italian restaurant with Italian wait staff. Definitely coming back. Best lasagna ever!
