WHY RANK?

0 - Fiorella's
One of my favorite restaurants in the area. You don't have to go to the North End to get great Italian food. Some of my favorites are the traditional...Hidden gem in the burbs. Been coming here since it first opened 6-7 years back. A small family run place with decent parking and solid italian food. It's...It doesn't look like much from the outside, but once you enter this little white building it becomes charming with an open fire and cozy atmosphere. I...

I like this place. It's not touristy and everything I've ever had, has been great! It's also one of the more economical places in the North End. I know...Amazing! If you want old school Italian this is the place to go. I had the chicken, sausage, peppers, and onions with roasted potatoes and it was like I...Massimino's is great. Its off the beaten path (So you're not overcrowded by noisy tourists) and its more of a local flavor. You're close to the Boston...

I bought into the hype, made my 6:30 reservation, and had my tail wagging on my walk from porter to ball square. I had a slight skip of the heart as I...Tiny restaurant with wonderful Italian dishes.

The best place in the North End. Small, intimate and lovely. Great food. No coffee or desserts, just dinner...the best you've ever had too! Bread's really...Really absolutely adorable. The entire dining room is probably about the size of a big bedroom, and it pretty much opens right onto the kitchen. Do NOT try...Ate here with the kids. Food was fantastic. House wine and no other choice given was good. No bathroom, Cash only and well worth it. We had to wait in...

0 - Prezza
Like Sweta, I was on an expense account dinner at Prezza (and was definitely one of the "suit types" there). Those nights are not nearly as fun as a night...North End and Italian - are they synonymous? I'm not from Boston, so I wouldn't know. But our business partners told us that Prezza's was one of the best...This spot was bustling on a Saturday night. We ate early, as a 6:30 table was all that they had available. We saw friends greeting each other here; it's...

This place is GREAT! Super high quality food, the people who work there are sweet down-to-earth friendly people. The owners are awesome!

Everything about the place has the feel of pre-gentrified Northampton, Cambridge,...Although I've driven by this place dozens of times, I never noticed it until brunch on Sunday with friends. What a cute place! And better yet it has...

Since the line was too long at Giacomos we went around the corner to La Summa, highly rated here. I hate doing this, but the food was surprisingly bad. My...Bellisimmo! That aboout the extent of my italiano....but gees the food I ate last night at La Summa was definately...wait for it.....SQUISITO! I checked on...Even though I was determined to love this place, it just let me down. I went in expecting it to easily be a 5 star yelping, yet the four stars I attribute...

I recently tried Lil' Vinny's with a friend and returned for dinner with my spouse shortly thereafter. I can't recommend this place enough. I had the...Monday night I had dinner plans with my grandparents and they both rave about this place - so when they asked me where I wanted to go I told them that after...Love this place! If you like Italian food...this is where its at! I was here last night and ordered the Futa Di Mare, one of my favs. Pretty spicy with a...

Simply incredible. My girlfriend took me here for my bday and the meal was delicious.

They had some great vegetarian...Oh my god, I love Toscano! I can't say enough about it! I've lived in Beacon Hill for four years, but I always walked right by it before the renovation. I...

This place is outstanding. I really can't think of any other positive things to say than what has already been said.Sweet indeed! The staff is amazingly attentive, the food comes in enormous portions and everything is delectable! Each meal begins with fresh bread and...Nice, big portions. I love the BYOB. The tables are way too close together for my taste. Needham is a dry town so remember to get your alcohol in advance or...
