About this business

This Southern Italian favorite in the North End has been popular since it opened in 1931. You will spot the big, neon sign over the bustling scene on Hanover Street. The dining room is filled with tables, plush plastic booths, ornate posters and bright lighting. Hearty, traditional meals are the draw. Expect to see generous portions of spaghetti and meatballs, chicken parmigiana, lasagna and veal piccatta. No fusion is allowed, but the red sauce has something of a cult following. The restaurant also serves beer and wine.

Each one was as good as its predecessor if not better. The wine list gave us many options at every price point. The owner Johnny D came by our table to greet us and to see if we needed anything. The chef came out to talk to my brother about his shellfish allergy with options for alternative foods. You don’t find many restaurants w... read more
