7 Exciting Boston-Area Restaurants Opening in Spring 2021 | Eater Boston
"Chef and owner Douglass Williams has been operating Mida, his beloved South End Italian restaurant, since 2016. Now, he’s expanding the business to Newton: Williams plans to open a second Mida outpost in June. It’s difficult (impossible?) to find better house-made pasta in Greater Boston, and Mida’s arancini is one of the best bites in the city. Put simply, Newton is getting an absolute gem. And for the uninitiated, Mida’s “Mangia Monday” is one of the best deals around: Two diners can sample five pasta dishes, salad, and bread for $70. It’s like the Olive Garden, but actually good. (Keep an eye out for Apizza, the forthcoming New Haven-style pizzeria Williams is opening inside Hub Hall.)" - Terrence Doyle
