" Scampo has a lovely setting, and the food generally meets expectations. However, I was disappointed with the seasoning in my dish. While my partner enjoyed their pasta, I felt mine was a bit bland. The service was good but lacked the polish one would expect at such a price point. Still, I appreciate the effort and would like to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a lovely birthday dinner here at Scampo! The staff made a great effort to celebrate with me. Although my main dish didn’t wow me like I expected, the dessert made up for it. The tiramisu was phenomenal; the flavors were delicate yet decadent. The restaurant's vibe is cozy and charming with an interesting history, but the service needs to tighten up a little bit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard wonderful things about Scampo, and it truly lived up to the hype! The cocktails were refreshing, and the lobster pizza was like a taste of heaven. I highly appreciated the chef's attention to detail in his dishes. The only downside was the slight wait for seating, but the overall experience was worth it. I'll definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" We tried Scampo for the first time during our stay in Boston, and I must say, it did not disappoint! The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. I had the duck which was cooked beautifully, while my partner indulged in the lobster fried rice. However, I felt like the portion for the price was slightly lacking. Also, the ambiance was lovely, but a bit noisy during peak hours. Overall, a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Scampo is a perfect blend of situation and flavors. While I encountered a few service hiccups, the food more than made up for it. The lobster dishes were great, and even their seasonal ravioli made me rethink my usual order. Will definitely want to return soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I enjoyed a lovely girls' night out at Scampo! We shared several plates, the favorites being the lobster pizza and tiramisu. Everything was fresh and well-presented. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was lively and fun. I can't wait to return for another fun evening out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Scampo provided an excellent dining experience. While I was slightly concerned about the pricing, the quality of the food justified it. I had the ravioli, which was fantastic; the flavors were on point, complemented by the lovely environment. Our server was great too, very engaging and professional. I'll definitely recommend this spot to friends. " (*Curated Review*)
