petulas - Review - South Boston - Boston - The Infatuation

"Petula’s has an old world charm and a new world energy—like the Gardner Museum, but make it Southie—with those bentwood chairs and bistro tables you’ll find in every cafe in Europe. This casual spot lands smack in the middle of the Venn diagram between date night and a lazy afternoon cocktail with old friends. Small plates like the tomato burrata salad topped with crispy bits of prosciutto sit on the menu alongside comfort foods like vodka tomato pasta, the seasonal vegetable pizza (currently zucchini and summer squash with housemade pesto), and the pepperoni pie with curled, crispy ’roni cups. We also strongly endorse their $10 martini Mondays as the best possible way to start the week. photo credit: Humar Miranda" - Tanya Edwards
