AAA Diamond Inspector Notes

This buzzy, rooftop hot spot boasts impressive views of the city skyline and the Boston Public Garden below. Inspired by the grandeur of Old Italy and the glamour of the 1920’s and 30’s Art Deco movement, this jewel is one of the hardest tables to secure, so visit midweek for your best chance. Bring a friend along to sample as many of the perfectly prepared dishes as possible including the Chianina beef carpaccio, pizzas, and most notably the spicy lobster capellini; an absolute must try.
