" This restaurant has all the charm you want in a cozy Italian spot! The atmosphere is intimate, and the food was predominantly good, though some dishes were better than others. My caprese salad was fresh; however, the lasagna was underwhelming and a bit soggy. The service was welcoming, but we had to wait a little longer than expected for our drinks. I would come back and try something else from the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having tried several Italian restaurants, I was excited to visit Tony & Elaine’s based on positive recommendations. While the ambiance was charming and reminded me of my grandmother's kitchen, the food was average at best. The garlic bread was too chewy, and my chicken parmesan lacked flavor. Service was decent, but I left still wanting more from the experience. I'd give it another chance, but my expectations have lowered. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally experienced Tony & Elaine’s after hearing rave reviews, and it did not disappoint! We shared a family-style meal featuring meatballs, gnocchi, and the must-try lasagna. The flavors were vibrant and felt authentically homemade. The atmosphere was warm and filled with old-school Italian charm. Not only did we enjoy every bite, but we also felt genuinely taken care of by our server. I will certainly recommend this place to friends and family! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't sing enough praises for Tony & Elaine’s! The lasagna was exceptional, truly one of the best I've tasted. The sauce was robust with homemade flavor that felt right out of my nonna's kitchen. I was also impressed with the attention to detail in their service; it felt genuine without being overbearing. The restaurant's charming atmosphere made the whole meal feel special. I highly recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tony & Elaine’s has become my new favorite Italian spot in Boston! The vintage decor and red-checkered tablecloths created a cozy atmosphere that felt like a family gathering. I ordered the baked gnocchi which was cheesy and satisfying, and their cannoli was the best I've had outside of Italy. The service was warm and attentive, making the whole experience delightful. I would highly recommend making a reservation, as it can get busy on weekends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally got around to trying Tony & Elaine's and I was really impressed! The menu has classic Italian dishes, and the food tasted homemade, with excellent portion sizes. The only downside was the service could be a little slow; however, our waitress was incredibly sweet. Will definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit to Tony & Elaine’s was delightful! The outdoor seating felt very intimate and comfortable, creating the perfect setting for a dinner date. I ordered the pasta alla vodka, which was creamy and delicious, while my partner had the eggplant parm, which he loved! The ingredients tasted fresh, although the portion sizes could have been a tad larger. Our server was attentive and genuine. Overall, it was a pleasant night out. " (*Curated Review*)
