Dino's Cafe

Was touring the city from Indianapolis and kept hearing how amazing this place was....and they were right! Ordered the Chicken Parmesan Sub and literally was one of the best subs I've ever had. The flavors and size of what you get was bang for the buck! The inside is a little small but that's the charm of this place because it's inviting with perfect atmosphere of people in the city walking by. And lastly staff they were super friendly and made sure I had everything I needed. So if you're in Boston and what an amazing eat in Little Italy...go to Dino's!!! Because if they had this in Indianapolis where I live, I'd go every week.

I’ve heard good things about this place and I finally tried it. It’s a quaint little place on the corner at the end of Salem street. They have a pretty big menu and I finally decided on the steak Bellino. When I paid I thought wow that’s kind of expensive for a steak and cheese but I had no idea how big their sandwiches are! It’s basically two subs and it was so good! Totally worth it! I got take out and had to walk a bit to get home before eating it and it was still fresh and not soggy like subs usually get when you don’t eat them right away. I will definitely be back to try other things on the menu! The pictures I took don’t do it justice, it tastes much better than it looks in them!

Great lunch spot! Order at the counter and take a seat. It wasn’t busy, but it was raining on a Monday, so I’m guessing we got lucky. The kids loved the spaghetti and meatballs. I had a wonderful chicken parmigiana. Service was quick and very friendly.

Owner was very friendly and wonderful customer service. Delicious food that was served fast and hot. But my boyfriend felt his chicken sandwich was not crunchy enough though

Can you say service? How about “great food”! If you enjoy service with a smile and focused attention, Dinos is the place to be! This guy takes orders, brings the meals out to your table, answers the phone, greets his guests, and supervises the two kitchen staff! He’s not on his cell phone playing games or browsing snap book! He’s not running around like his hair is on fire! This guy is cool as a cucumber. And the food! Oh my! It’s as good as his service! I’ve eaten enough Italian food in my life to know what’s legit and what’s out of a can. I’d be surprised if this guy doesn’t grow his own tomatoes for his sauces and raise his own cows for his meatballs! If your in Boston and want real Italian food and want to be served like it was 1965, hit up Dinos and ENJOY!

Let me tell you a story about a cup of ice. After finishing a tour of the Old North Church, I searched the area for an Italian restaurant that was casual with great reviews. That's when I came across this gem. Not only did my husband say it was the best Italian he's ever had (and we've had a lot of authentic Italian), the staff are simply wonderful. Now back to the ice...so we got a bottled Coke from the cooler. It wasn't cold, so my husband asked for a cup of ice. Well, they didn't have any in the cafe, so the owner says, I'll go across the street and get you some. He goes to the bakery next door and comes back with a full cup of ice for us so that we would have a cold Coke. Now THAT'S customer service! Everyone was so nice and the food was excellent. Definitely recommend. There are a lot of Italian places to choose from in the Neighborhood, but not all have the heart of these guys.

3.5 stars. Small local no frills Italian eatery with a small cozy interior. Friendly service! Dino greets you as you enter the door. We ordered the grilled chicken parm sub and chicken cutlet parm sub. The roll was chewy and crusty. I liked the grilled chicken parm better than the chicken cutlet sub. The chicken was juicier and tasted better since there was no breading on the chicken. Portions were generous. The pasta looked delicious as well. Maybe next time.

Come here at night! The service is great! Staff are welcoming and price is decent for such a great quality food! After the meal, you can easily grab a pastry from across the street too, the Bova’s!
