- AMAnneMarieGreater Boston •10 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe have had a gift card for some time, and just hate going into Boston, especially the North End where parking is abysmal!!! Boy, was this worth the drive and horrendous parking! I had the Frutti di Mare which was delicious! My husband had the veal parmigiana! I have never seen veal parmigiana like Umbria’s! Huge veal chop, butterflied on the bone breaded and prepared parmigiana style! Presentation was amazing as was the flavor! Could easily be shared by two people!More infoUmbriaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• North End•4.5

- DMDonnaMGreater Boston •2 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoMy boyfriend is very picky when it comes to pasta. He tends to only prefer his own, and something in restaurant pasta is always not quite right. Not THIS time! He ordered the bolognese and could not stop complimenting it. He gave it a full 10! That’s NEVER happened before. I had the salmon and it was delicious too.the mussels were unlike any mussel I’ve tasted before. So good. Our server and busser were excellent and attentive. We went early (4:30) so it was quiet in the back room. BF is still talking about the pasta today so I’m sure we will be back.More infoLucca North EndPrice: Expensive• Italian• North End•4.6

- XXinevipGreater Boston •11 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 1, 2023Always a go to! Went with my husband and two boys (15 and 13) on a whim and was able to get an early res for New Year’s Day. I got the gluten free pasta with truffle sauce and mushrooms - chef’s kiss amazing - and everyone else had their own lobster ravioli dishes - yes, that good!! We CRAVE this place. Make a res through Open Table to make seating easier, then head to Dolce at the corner for gelato and/or and affogato for dessert :) You won’t be disappointed.More infoTrattoria Il PaninoPrice: Moderate• Italian• North End•4.4
