Wow. Is all I can say. We ate here as a group and they did separate checks and were very attentive. We had the pork meatballs and the osobucco with risotto. The veal shank was fall off the bone tender and was a very generous serving. The risotto was creamy and gave me that down home feeling of real Italian comfort food. There were a few veggies on the plate but not anything one would take note of given the veal shank and risotto. The pork meatballs were served on a plate with four different sauces. My favorite was the mint sauce. Amazing mixture of sweet and savory that just blended so well with the pork. A very easy to share appetizer. We also shred the baked oysters. They were huge and perfectly cooked in a crisp set of toppings and cheeses. I can t recommend this place more highly. But it is pricey and you might have to make reservations but don t miss this north end treat.
