The 14 Best Italian Restaurants In Boston

"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." - tanya edwards, joel ang, dan secatore

Where to Eat Excellent Italian Food Around Boston

"It’s easy to fall in love with Petula’s, Rachel Titcomb’s Italian-ish newcomer that opened in Southie in May 2023, from the small plates of whipped ricotta with pickled red onions and herb honey on grilled sourdough, to classic pasta with vodka sauce that topped with chili flakes and fresh parmesan. The vibe is date-night chic, too — check out the dining room’s warm blush tones and the dried blooms hanging over the bar — whether your date is a pal for martini Mondays or a partner to split the pristine prosciutto and delicata squash pizza. Or even still: A treat-yourself date of truffle cacio e pepe with confit mushrooms. That way, you can hoard the whole meal for yourself." - Nathan Tavares, Tommy Ranucci, Eater Staff
