"Just like Nonna’s kitchen, this stylish Italian spot in East Boston can feed a crowd. Make a reservation for the sleek red banquets indoors or on the expansive back patio. Choose from a menu of classic dishes like garlic bread, Tuscan pesto chicken pasta, and Italian cutlets, plus a build-your-own Parm option. After dinner, check out Next Door, the craft cocktail speakeasy hidden behind a secret door." - Erika Adams
