" This place has fantastic ambiance, but the food was lacking in flavor. I ordered the eggplant parmesan, which was bland and had too much breading, overshadowing the eggplant itself. I wanted to love it, but unfortunately, I won't be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to dinner here, given the high ratings. While the atmosphere was lovely, the food didn't quite live up to my expectations. I tried the seafood linguine which felt a bit bland, lacking the freshness I hoped for. The service was friendly, but we waited a long time for our drinks. Overall, it was okay, but I might try another place next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I brought my family here on vacation, but we were let down by the food. While the appetizers were decent, my main dish (spaghetti carbonara) tasted bland and was not what I expected at an Italian restaurant. The atmosphere was nice, and the service was good, but I feel there are better options to try. " (*Curated Review*)

" I dined with a colleague on a business trip, and this restaurant was surprisingly good! The specials are authentic Italian dishes that will warm your heart. I had the osso buco, and it was succulent. The atmosphere felt professional yet welcoming. I will definitely be back when I'm in Boston again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Avoid this place if you can! Found hair in my pasta and when I brought it to the staff's attention, they simply offered a replacement which was also undercooked. The atmosphere was nice enough, but cleanliness is a priority for me. I will not return. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a treat! The ravioli here was to die for—light, flavorful, and made fresh. I paired it with a lovely Chianti, and it all felt so authentic. The service was excellent; our server was very accommodating and friendly, making our evening delightful. I look forward to coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a disappointing experience! I had high hopes after hearing rave reviews, but I was let down. The chicken parmesan tasted more like frozen dinner than authentic Italian fare, and my pasta was overcooked and lacked flavor. The service was adequate but nothing to write home about. I really wanted to enjoy it, but I won't be coming back. " (*Curated Review*)
