Divine eggs, omelette and poached, for brunch at this Cambridge eatery. A warm and welcoming place to catch up with friends over good food.

Sulmona in Boston offers a delightful dining experience with exceptional service. Our server was fantastic, recommending a great wine to complement our meal. The Caprese salad was beautifully presented and delicious. Though the artichokes were slightly overcooked, the attentive server promptly addressed it by removing the charge. The pizza was a perfect ending to a satisfying dinner, making Sulmona a recommended spot for Italian cuisine in Boston.

Decent food. Side of bacon is a must good vibes but a bit pricey

Torn between a 3 and a 4. The service is generally very good and the cocktails are execellent with a good selection of well crafted espresso martinis, classic boulevardiers, and fruit forward options. The food is fine but not particularly noteworthy. Our reservation for 6 was very clearly placed at a table for 4 so we were a little squished and to people got the table crack spot. The table of 6 next to us had a normal 6-person table. It can feel drafty if seated near the door. The plates are nice for sharing.

Sulmona provided a brunch experience that exceeded expectations. The ambience was enchanting, with a perfect balance of rustic charm and modern elegance. The moment I stepped in, I felt a warm and inviting atmosphere. The diverse menu offered a range of brunch options, and each dish was a masterpiece of both presentation and taste. From the delectable avocado toast to the perfectly brewed coffee, Sulmona crafted a brunch that lingered in my memory. The attentive service and cozy setting made it a truly amazing dining experience. Sulmona is a brunch haven worth revisiting.

Fantastic brunch with lots of different options and sizable portions. We were able to get a table easily on Saturday afternoon. The Sunday sauce and porchetta are a standout. We'll definitely be back again when around Kendall Square.

A great Italian restaurant with a terrific menu and wine selection. The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating and will see that you are comfortable. The dining area feels intimately spacious, and an inviting marble topped bar, about 20 seats long with TV’s for sports. This is a great spot to dine, wine, and just relax. Definitely worth a visit.

Came for dinner. I have been several times and the dishes are always interesting, but the execution is always a bit lacking. I find the food too oily and lacking in distinctive flavor. The pizza was particularly disappointing - it was freshly made and should have been delicious, but ultimately too greasy with too much cheese and not enough flavors that came through. It's almost like a generic frozen pizza, but made fresh. That said, there is good variety and the basics are there. Most people will be happy with their meal. The food is consistently good, but I haven't found much great here.

This was my second trip here within the past two years, and I regret not coming here more often. I remember liking the food the first time around, but I didn't have the pasta; so figured if pasta is what they are known for, I have to try it. It was absolutely worth it. My favorite part of my meal was the red sauce in my pasta and tasting how fresh the tomatoes were. I nearly asked for a jar to take home. The ambiance is perfect for a date night as the lights are slightly dimmed and they have these beautiful arches along the bar that set the scene. The best part of it all was service we receive. We were catered to as if we were the only ones in the restaurant, and it definitely was a special experience. Special Shoutout to our wonderful server, Mohamed, who was absolutely lovely and catered to our every need. You are the best! *Atmosphere: 9/10 *Food: 9/10 *Service: 10/10 Must Try Items: *Mussels Antipasti *Amatriciana *Wild Boar Ragu

The food was great, and the service was good. The only thing was that we did not have one waiter. We had different waiters and it took a lot of work to place orders. When we ordered desserts they kept forgetting what we ordered and how many. Other than that the food was great. I ordered small appetizer "PANZEROTTI", and a dessert that was on their special menu. Desserts called "Dolce," it was Tiramisu. I was in love with it. I also tried their special "Limoncello Spritzer." It was okay. If you like Limoncello, you will like it. The atmosphere in the restaurant is nice, and the decor is good. It is kind of hard to find parking. They do not have a parking outside of the restaurant.

Came here for brunch on a weekend. Wasn't busy and there's plenty of room. Service was good. Food was tasty, but didn't blow me away. They have a broad menu so maybe I'll return to try something else in the future. The scene and ambiance is well suited for a group of friends to catch up so invite me next time you head there.

Wow, I was pleasantly surprised by what a good lunch I had here! If I could find anything to nitpick, it would just be that the server didn't check in on us as frequently as I would have wanted them to. It took us a while to order and a while to pay the check, because we couldn't find someone to help. First off, Sulmona was decorated for the holidays and it looked so nice indoors. I loved the natural lighting and how open it was. I ordered the spaghetti and a side house salad. The spaghetti portion was small, but the side house salad was huge! Made me wonder how big the actual entree size is. The spaghetti was cooked perfectly al dente (how I like it). And the house salad was delicious as well! Would def recommend this combo for lunch / I would love to come back for dinner next time!

3.5/5 The decorations and ambience here are quite nice, but I would pass on the brunch food and only come here for dinner in the future.

Food and drinks were excellent. The only issue was the service. Though very friendly, multiple tables had orders entered incorrectly so everything ordered came out at the same time. We ordered an appetizer that actually never came, but our entrees came out first. A similar issue happened at the 2 tables next to us (at least they got their appetizers).

Solid 4 stars! Everything was really good, but nothing wow'd me. The wild boar ragú had nice flavors and consistency. It was well portioned. I was very full by the end of my meal, even without an appetizer. The red wine sangria was quite nice as well! It was fruity and refreshing. The ambiance is classy, perfect for a date or special occasion.

Went with a large group. Three of us ordered the same meal. I think they made all three at once as I received no fish or shrimp but the other 2 had a lot. For 47.00 I want my shrimp. When I told the manager he brushed it off and kept walking. Will not use for a large dinner again.

Came here to reconnect with a friend and I think it was a great restaurant for this purpose. The restaurant is pretty big and has multiple tables, suitable for both small and large parties. The lighting is dimmed and moody, and there was chatter all around us our server was very kind and punctual, he gave us some good recommendations. I really enjoyed my pasta dish and I think it was the perfect portion size. The noodles were thick, creamy, and cheesy, just how I love it! I am removing a star for now because the salad dish wasn't as great, but when I come back, I am looking forward to trying their other pastas.

The service is wonderful, i had the mixed berry waffle made with lemon zest and topped with marscarpone was delicious. It was light and fluffy and the perfect amount so you don't feel overly stuffed, i had to get a side of bacon because sweet had to be balanced out with a lil' bit of salt. My espresso martini w/bailey's was delicious and decorated perfectly. My friend had the montecristo that had french toast breading yes maple syrup on the side for dipping yes that sweet and savory. It looked really good and it came w homefries. It is a relaxing, calm and cozy atmosphere great for conversation instead of a hustling busy bar.

Came here at 11am on a Saturday morning. I made a reservation, but the restaurant was pretty empty--likely that you can walk in without much of a wait time. In terms of ambience and vibe, I was a big fan of this restaurant's decor. The dark walls + wood details made the space feel elegant and high-end despite being relatively affordable. I ordered the porschetta hash ($17) and it was divine! It was my first time trying this dish and I think I found a new brunch favorite. The meat and potatoes were well seasoned, and I really liked how crispy the pork was. I also felt that this was a fair serving size for the price. All in all, I had a great brunch experience here. Service was quick and the space was clean. Would definitely come back to try more of the menu!

Absolutely loved this place for brunch!! The atmosphere and food are top notch. My girlfriends and I shared 3 dishes so we could try a little bit of everything. The mushroom pizza had a variety of mushrooms and was so creamy with the fontina and Asiago cheese. For the eggs benedict we decided to try the prosciutto. LOVED the prosciutto and highly recommend this one. Finally, we tried the famous French toast. Specifically the banana bread. Absolutely delicious. If you like bananas you'll like this. If you're not a huge banana person, it might be a bit much, however I really enjoyed it! This is such a cute, trendy brunch spot, and will definitely be a go-to for me!

The inside of this restaurant is beautiful- I love the ambiance, the decor, and all the natural light. There is a lot of parking all around the building, which is helpful if you're driving. Easy location to access. The service was really poor and would stop me from coming back here. The waiter came by 3X to ask about food and drinks, before we even had time to look at the menu (within the first 5 minutes). We then put in our order for appetizers and drinks, and told him we would place our main meal order later on. He came back 3X in 10 minutes to try and take our order, and seemed annoyed for us not being ready to order yet. It was frustrating more than anything to keep telling the waiter over and over we didn't want to put in our food order yet and then him in return being annoyed with us. After delivering our main courses, he went MIA and didn't return the rest of the meal (had to ask other waiters for water and the bill for the next hour). The food itself was average Italian food, nothing was special about it. We ordered the burrata (with tomatoes and pesto), meatball, arancini, and cacio e pepe pasta. All dishes were solid, but again, dishes you could get from any Italian restaurant. Very underwhelming.

I hosted a work lunch here and requested the quietest spot in my reservation. I really appreciated that this was taken seriously. The layout is quite open and may have been more distracting if the spot had been busier. I would absolutely host a work lunch here again, especially on a weekday. I had the House Salad and added chicken. The salad was a refreshing choice on an exceptionally hot day. Would order again. The chicken was a smidge dry and I would choose a different protein. The waiter was not good at anticipating needs and we waited 20-30 minutes from finishing our meal until they brought the check.

Sulmona is one of my new favorite restaurants since it opened several years ago. The chef also owns Amelia's, another Italian restaurant on Kendall Square. It is a contemporary restaurant with nice ambiance. I have brought friends here a few times for lunch and enjoyed the atmosphere. In my experience, the service has always been good, and I love the food!

Went to Sulmona for dinner and it was a really nice spot. Slightly busy in a thursday which made for a good atmosphere. The staff were so nice it was my boyfriends bday and they were great in getting us a dessert with a candle! We got a pizzette which was nice and I got the cacio e Pepe and my boyfriend got the chicken parm. The star of the show was the arancini! Would go again

Had a wonderful dinner experience at Sulmona this week - we went on a Monday night around 6 and it was POPPING! The sign of a great spot (especially given most places nearby were nearly empty at that time.) The ambiance is lovely, with super unique décor (such as a red motorcycle hanging from the ceiling - coolness) and a very friendly staff. It's about a 10 minute walk from the Kendall Square T stop - not inconvenient at all! Top 3 orders: Rosa cocktail: This almost tasted like a daquiri - sweet, flowery and so, so delicious. It was such a fun way to start off our dinner experience - it looked as good as it tasted! Sunday sauce: Despite what the name suggests, this is available as an appetizer EVERY DAY - and you have to get it. Super hearty and comforting, with a few different types of meat, heartwarming tomato sauce and a generous helping of cheese on top, this is a must-have at Sulmona. Affogato: I just feel like this is one of those things you have to get. It's obviously gorgeous, and has the perfect mix between sweet and savory (and cold and hot - opposites clearly attract here!) with the gelato and espresso poured on top. They give a generous helping of gelato, as well - not too shabby for a nice restaurant! This is a great place for a date night or to spend time with friends - it's definitely versatile, but has so much character. Would definitely recommend for anyone in Cambridge or Boston!

Walked into the place took a look at the menu and the door host told me not to touch the menus, 1st red flag. Second red flag, our waiter served us water and didn't come back for 10 mins. Third red flag, look at the cacio e Pepe (photo on this review) it's literally soup. The noodles on the end taste like water straight from boiling. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing but yes no stick to other items at this restaurant.

Sulmona's brunch may be lesser known than nearby Cafe Luna, but it is not to be overlooked! We were able to make a Saturday 11am reservation only a couple of days before, by which time many other popular brunch spots in the area had been booked up. The atmosphere and decorations are nice, and the menu has a good variety. Service was good and efficient. We ordered: - Smoked salmon + Red onion + Capers Eggs Benedict: what you would expect from a standard brunch dish with these ingredients, and they were generous with the smoked salmon. - Prosciutto + Kale + Garlic Eggs Benedict: yummy! The prosciutto amount was also generous. I had expected it to be sliced thinner, but the flavor was nonetheless very good. - Tiramisu + Coffee Glaze French Toast: cutely arranged and the tiramisu + coffee flavor was good--a note is that this is just a regular french toast (i.e. not stuffed). - Pepperoni Pizza: a solid pizza. All were yummy and I thought portions were appropriate for the price! Though it's not known primarily for its brunch, I felt Sulmona was on par with other local places. And without the need to wait or reserve days in advance, Sulmona is a great brunch option!

Fantastic Italian fare We hit up this spot for lunch on a Sunday. Seated right away without a res. I am surprised I didn't know about this place considering it is just a few steps away from Kendall. We started off with the seafood fish fry which was a mix of fresh seafood. Super yummy. Then we shared 2 pizzas. The pizza itself was perfectly done. Good crisp on the crust, perfect amount of doughyness. Funghi was really delicious mushroom medley. We tried the lox pizza because we felt adventurous. Came with tons of salmon. Fresh herbs were a nice touch. It was a tad salty because of the capers but otherwise loved it. Next time will order capers on the side.

Nice Italian restaurant for after-work appetizers or dinner. Good: - grilled octopus with crispy smashed potatoes and spicy aioli - hurrays with marinated tomatoes, basil pesto, foraccia crostini Ok: - carciofi fritti fried Roma artichokes with pecorino cheese - caciibe e pepe bucatini pasta with some cheese and truffle purée could be better with mushrooms and some meat.

Service from Roosevelt was amazing. He came up with drinks for us that were not on the menu and they were perfect. Pizzas were good. Also had the porchetta and it was really, really good. Had a kid that really enjoyed the spaghetti and meatballs. Overall amazing experience. Will revisit next time in Boston. Thanks Roosevelt!

Found Sulmona very underwhelming. The atmosphere is definitely nice, with mood lighting and good decor. Service was friendly and really fast. But the pizza was well below my expectations for such a place. Maybe that's just not what you should get here, but I figured it was pretty central on the menu and good pizza would be a speciality of an upscale Italian place. Instead the margherita was really bland, the Bianca was over salty but otherwise also bland, and for both the taste and texture of crunchy crust was by far the dominant part of the dish. You can get much better pizza at other, much less upscale places.

I heard this place wasn't great for dinner, but thought I'd check out the brunch. Service was great. Waiter attentive. Good coffee - love it when a brunch place serves decent coffee. I can never decide between savory and sweet so split the prosciutto benny and mascarpone french toast with a friend. Both were delicious. I'd definitely come back for brunch!

An awful first impression walking through the freezing cold winter wind thinking of a warm pasta dish and glass of red wine ....walked in and asked for a seat at the bar only to be rebuffed by the guy at host station talking down to me indicating there was a private party going on that was ending but they weren't open.... And back to his screen.....nice impression Richard. Found a place just down the road that greeted me with a smile and happy to serve me wine and pizza!

Been a patron since they opened and continued (as much as possible) through the pandemic--as we wanted to continue to support the restaurant. Excellent food and drinks up until a certain point. Great food and we love the owners as we try to support local/private businesses. However, the service, quality and prices have been atrociously compromised as of late. Now, the food is hit or miss and often the meals don't come out at the same time for the entire party. This causes some to eat cold food. Servers are way too slow and keep screwing up on the food orders and or bills. Its become a cliche of an overly rated restaurant that I know has a real charm.

Carbonara was meh. I wasn't impressed with the 62-degree egg add-on. Pastas, in general, are a bit too salty. The pepperoni pizza was something you could order from elsewhere. Lamb skewers were good, but I've had much better Fritti and Aranchini in the North End. As for the service, our waiter was considerate of our dietary needs, but we didn't really liked the host by the entrance who gave a rather brazen and rude attitude when greeting us and getting us seated. My friends and I liked the vibe. I'd recommend going to North End for better food and service instead.

I can't compare this restaurant to other brunch places in Boston (since this is the first one I've visited), but overall we enjoyed a decent meal with nothing amazing to speak about. The prices here are also a bit high. The English muffins from the smoked salmon were a little cold, but the dish was very flavorful and they were generous with the smoked salmon. The potatoes on the side were also good but could've been a little bit crispier. The french toast with mascarpone and berry compote was a little dense and had a more eggy flavor than I was used to. The mascarpone and berry compote was very good though. My partner thought the burger was solid.

Had been hearing good things about this place for a while, so decided to take a work group here for dinner. All the food was made from very organic ingredients, and you could tell by its taste. The bruschetta and burrata was FANTASTIC - such simple but organic ingredients that tasted amazing and fresh. The arancini was fantastic as well. The carbonara was less good - quite watery and lacking in taste. The chocolate cake with ice cream was also incredibly rich, velvety, and a great way to end out the dinner. Service was great - we had a very large party and they brought our food correctly and speedily. Ambiance was kind of like a firehouse - nice lighting and good location. Would recommend getting dishes with fresh ingredients

I wasn't a huge fan of the old fashioned (which doesn't seem to be on the online menu), which was a little confused in taste IMO? But it was quite a strong drink, they were not skimping on that! In contrast, the three appetizers were all decent to amazing. The best, carciofi fritti (15$), had perfectly fluffy and crisp artichokes, with great flavor. The panzerotti (13$) and arancini (14$) were tasty, but not as special. The funghi pizza (18$) was super tasty, with lovely mushrooms and creamy cheese. The pepperoni (17$) was not very good, with salumi that were in huge chunks and didn't combine well with the cheese base, leaving unevenly salty bites. Overall, perfectly adequate, if a bit hit or miss at a slightly high price point.

We were so happy to find this restaurant for breakfast! The food and service were excellent. Our sever, Vanessa, went out of the way to get my wife strong dark coffee. We loved the eggs Benedict, the skillet pancakes, the banana bread, the chocolate waffles, and the Italian country eggs special. Highly recommend for breakfast and brunch.

I want to break down my review for service, ambiance and food. I would have given 3 stars for food, 3 stars for ambiance and 2 stars for service. So average would be 2-2 1/2. Let's start with ambiance. The restaurant is very open, bright and cozy. One of my biggest pet peeves however are tables so close that a servers back side is practically touching my table (or does touch). And to be clear it's the lower back side. No one wants to have that experience. I've been to other restaurants with close tables who have handled this differently. I would rather have a server reach around me then have their backside graze someones table and be in their face. I've walked by this place a few times and decided to give it a try. Was looking forward to trying their arancini and some brunch. The arancini was just average and disappointing as it came to us lukewarm. I always like trying a restaurants arancini since there can be so many variations. This one was well seasoned but since it came lukewarm the cheese inside was barely melted. I'm sure it would have tasted better if it was hot. I ordered one of the eggs Benedict while my friend ordered the hash. Both dishes were good. The eggs Benedict was well made, perfect egg on top. The garlic kale and ham was a flavorful combination. And overall the price to portion size was on point. The hash was just good, nothing special and a smidge overpriced for what you got. And now the service....sigh....it wasn't horrible but it was bad. I've been in the food industry for over 30yrs. I've done the front and back of the house, serving and cooking and also the business side. I know that good food alone does not equal success. We were greeted with a smile and friendly host. We were seated promptly. One job of a host is to notify a server they have a new table in their section, that clearly did not happen. After being sat we saw many servers walk by our table, menus still prominent and empty water glasses. It was well over 7 minutes when we saw another table seated and I politely asked the host who our server was. He said he knew looked around and then grabbed a pitcher to fill are water glasses and if we would like to order which we did. The host apologized and said they were short staffed. Yet, the other table that was just seated and also one after we ordered had a server greet them and fill their glasses within a few minutes. I may sound petty but I understand a busy restaurant. It doesn't take much effort for a server to glance over and say "hi I'll be right there" just to be acknowledged. When I was a server, my table or not if I saw my fellow coworkers table with empty glasses and menus after a while I'd definitely say something. I am guessing since it was clear to the host our service was not so great up to now they put a rush on our food. Which in the long run did not work in their favor since the arancini came out quickly but again was not hot. The rest of our food did come out in a timely manner and again was good. Servers walking by were now clearing away any empty plates and filling are glasses. I would like to add my friend finished his plate first while I had a few more bites. A server walked by to take his plate and then proceeded to take my side plate with my knife on it. I was taking a bite of food before I could stop him but all I thought was why??? at least ask me. Once I was finished I had some left to box up. Then came another long wait. When we finally got the food to go and the check we waited a few minutes for our server to take it but just left. While good/great/spectacular food is essential for a restaurant the entire dining experience must also have good-decent/common sense service. If the service had even matched the good food we'd prob go back to try their lunch menu but unfortunately we won't be. As always never take my word and try it yourself.

5 stars for the wonderful suprise this place was! We picked it mainly because it is on Seated (and can get cash back), and because the interiors looked very cool. we were right about the space: lots of natural light, great decor. Our tummies were very satisfied as well. I ordered the sangria and the wild boar ragu, which was served on homemade cavatelli - could use a bit more salt, but otherwise the pasta was cooked al dente and it was a great choice for the kind of sauce. The sangria was crisp and refreshing, and tasted like actual fruit, not syrups. Everyone else at the table got various types of pizzas, which also looked very tasty.

My family and I made a reservation here for 2pm, but they kindly seated us despite us arriving 30 minutes earlier. The restaurant was nice and clean and we were seated at a table inside next to the open windows where we could enjoy the light breeze coming in. We shared the tiramisu French toast, panzerotti (potato croquettes), hanger steak eggs benedict, and the sweet cheeks pizza. For drinks, we ordered the Nutella iced coffee (nonalcoholic version), red sangria, and pineapple express. The tiramisu French toast tasted slightly burnt to me, but it had just the perfect amount of sweetness. I loved the plating of the dish and the lightness of the cream, which was honestly the best part of the dish. The potato croquettes were alright, yummy enough, but I wish they were crispier. The sweet cheeks pizza was too oily for my liking and the crispy pig cheeks were sparse and tiny, but really chewy, reminding me of this dried pork meat my mom loves to eat. The best dish is definitely the hanger steak eggs benedict. The juiciness and tenderness of the hanger steak paired with the spinach and cheese was absolutely amazing. I have never enjoyed an egg benedicts dish so much! The Nutella iced coffee was also really good, just right amount of sweetness. I enjoyed the sangria and appreciated how big the glass was. The pineapple express, in comparison to the other two drinks, was just alright. I would come back for their hanger steak egg benedict and to check out their other pizza options!

What a wonderful brunch experience! We were seated outdoors, which was adequately socially distanced. Our server was very nice and recommended menu items and customized caffeinated drinks. We were a group of 4 and ordered the Waffles, Paninic Margherita pizza and the tiramisu French toast. The Margherita pizza - I haven't had such soft thin crust pizza in a long time! The toppings were nicely spread with a mix of tomato and cheese with basil leaves on top. The pizza was fresh out of the oven and perfectly baked. The tiramisu French toast however was the start dish. I wish I had not ordered it to share! It was not overly sweet and you could taste the French toast and the tiramisu. It came with a drizzle of chocolate and lady fingers. 10/10 would brunch again. Will likely end up getting the tiramisu French toast only.

Came here again with coworkers. We shared 3 different kind of pizza. It was perfect since 6 pieces/kind and we were a party of 6. I really loved all kinds of pizza. I hadn't had good pizza for a while, so I give now 5 stars. I had Maine beer and that was good, too. The service was excellent, too.

Ahhhh. I love dinner here. Maybe my favorite go-to "nicer" dinner in the Kendall area. Been here several times for dinner so here's a laundry list of thoughts Apps - arrosticini: grilled lamb skewers, so tender. They are $12 and very worth it - arancini - fried rice cheese balls also $12....need I convince your more? Dinner - once I had the langostini special and it was incredibly expensive and not filling - not recommending that - Wild boar ragu is a great option if you're drinking a red wine! Very rich and filling - seafood pasta (on the specials menu that night)... to my great pleasure actually had perfectly cooked seafood; unforgettable and unfortunately a rare occurrence for dining here. Always get my seafood mishandled but I can trust sulmona! Would suggest this place as a nice first date place for cocktails as well. Their bartenders are fun and did some tricks with orange peels for us :)

Had a great experience here! We got the burrata, Italian grain bowl and fish special, all of which were delicious. The service was great; we had Freddie, Fernando, and Mohamed helping us, and they were all super nice and friendly. Would highly recommend Sulmona!
