I sat at the bar. The bar staff were so busy and yet they still managed to serve me. Obviously very experienced and adept to busy evenings. I had the lobster ravioli, very generous with the lobster filling. Cream sauce was great, light enough so it didn't feel like it was going weigh in your stomach. I had the doughnuts, nice and fresh!! I polished off both dishes easily.
I really enjoyed this restaurant! The food was great especially given the competition in the North End. I've tried a handful of restaurants here but this one is definitely one of my favorites. The service was friendly, attentive and speedy. I loved the vibe inside, it was clean and beautiful. I would love to sit in the upstairs terrace one day!
We celebrated a friend from out of Town for his 60th Birthday. The Chef came and greeted us and talked about each menu item we were ordering. He then checked back to make sure we were all happy with our meals. Each one was amazing!! By Far the best meal and overall experience I’ve had in the North End!
What great Italian dinner experience! The ambience was perfect. We had a dinner table all to ourselves, our waitress named Amanda was very helpful. She went over and beyond to service our needs. My wife had the vegan ravioli and I had the baked Parmesan with angel hair spaghetti. As we are finishing up dinner, the chef/owner came up and asked us how everything was, which made the experience even better! I would say the dishes are large enough to where you could split if needed to. Thanks again Rich and Amanda!
Lovely dinner. The lobster ravioli was a big portion and really tasty. Our waiter was super friendly and the owner stopped by the table as well to check in. Make a reservation before going, it was really busy.
My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary a couple of months ago at Tresca. Peaceful atmosphere with a great street view. Amanda was our server and she was fantastic! I ordered Anna Maria’s Famous Stuffed Meatballs, my husband ordered the Baked Scallops and we shared the Italian Chopped Salad. While we were eating we got to meet Rich Ansara, chef and part owner of Tresca. Rich is a lovely talented man and I highly recommend chit chatting with him. We ended the night with some delicious cannolis. We’ve been back to Tresca a few weeks ago and we plan on eating there again. Thank you so much Rich!
It’s been so long since I’ve been back here but I had such an amazing meal here! We came during restaurant week so I ordered the arancini, the bolognese, and then the chocolate cake. All of them were delicious, but what I keep coming back to in my mind is the bolognese—truly one of the best I’ve had, especially in the North End. I definitely need to come back here to order it again. I also want to give a shoutout to our amazing waitress, Josette! She was super friendly and had a wonderful personality, and she took great care of us, making sure to stop by and check in on us during our meal.
Rushed and overpriced for the quality of food and the experience. Tables too close together. It was either a table right next to your neighbor or an uncomfortable high table and we had reservations. I really felt like they were just moving in as many people as possible to quickly take our money. $8 for four, nasty, small pieces of bread (more like one normal piece of bread cut into four tiny pieces). Food lacked flavor and hardly had any sauce. Food tasted premade, dry and old like it had been sitting for awhile. So glad we went somewhere else for desert. I really expected it to be really good based on these ratings. The ambience and the culture felt like a sad chain restaurant and the food was not much better. Not romantic as described by others. It was really hot people had to ask them to drop the temperature. We heard because their table was so close to ours. I would go anywhere else in the North End over this place. You can see how close the table next to us was in the picture. They should know how to manage a restaurant without customers telling them how to improve as they mention in their replies.
