Taqueria el Barrio, Orfano, T&B Pizza, Restaurant Reviews - Eater Boston
"The Boston Globe’s Devra First stops in for an early look at Tiffani Faison’s brand new Italian-American restaurant in Fenway, Orfano. With a motto of “sorry Nonna,” Orfano delivers a “winky-respectful salute to tradition,” First writes. There are “warmhearted takes on classics,” including clams with pancetta and toasted breadcrumbs, meatballs, and pasta dishes like lobster bucatini and cacio e pepe made with stuffed tortellini instead of spaghetti. The drinks are noteworthy for First, including a sidecar cocktail, Lambrusco, and a heavily Italian wine selection. The restaurant’s pepper grinder is also of note, for its size close to that of a small child. Overall, First writes, “Orfano serves food with a point of view and a sense of humor.”" - Dana Hatic
