About this business
Located within the Liberty Hotel, Scampo brings in a delectable twist to traditional Italian cuisine. Chef Lydia Shire has crafted a menu that embraces the diversity of modern dining, while staying true to the restaurant’s Italian basis. The bread at Scampo is Naan, which is surprising, but offsets the Italian dishes nicely. Try the steaks, cod and cauliflower preparations. The duck also offers a refreshing variation. The heavy use of fennel is classic Italian, but the combinations of certain flavors certainly doesn&rs... read more

Great appetizers, nice manager, nice place overall – I've been to Scampo twice for dinner. It's in the Liberty Hotel which was a jail way back in the day. It's a great location and nice ambiance. The first time I went there, I ordered the elephant ear which was very tasty and very unique. I enjoyed it very much. For my entree, I ordered orecchiette pasta which was not good. It was in a light white sauce that was pretty bland. The manager came by our table and he's a very friendly guy. I went there several months later and th... read more
Love the Food, Great dining experience! – My husband and I come here frequently and we've never had a bad meal nor bad service. I love the fava bean dip with the bread sticks and Patrick's Naan is a MUST. The The Mozzarella Bar is amazing...we love the king-crab cocktail. If you like Lamb... try the Saturday night supper special. I also recommend the tagliata ..(thinly sliced sirloin steak.) The pizza's a re great! eat and enjoy!!
Inedible Fish – I took my wife for her birthday to Scampo The mozzarella was great - had the avocado/crab combo which was awesome the spaghetti with cracklings was good also unfortunately the cod was inedible and think she may have gotten sick from the meal. Initially it came out and was very undercooked - the manager brought the food back and apologized - when she returned the fish was so bad we could not eat it. I was disappointed as it virtually ruined the night... Not a go to place at all.
Great for out-of-town-guests – For the most part, I'm digging the latest addition to Lydia Shire's empire. Hidden on the ground floor of the fabulous Liberty Hotel, the airy space, marked off by exposed brick walls and arranged around a spotless open kitchen, is a great place to bring out of town guests for a bit of Boston ambiance and history (the Liberty was an old jail). And compared with Locke-Ober, it's a far less stuffy, masculine and meat-centric place to sample the cuisine of Lydia Shire, who is herself a piece of Bo... read more
Boston's beloved Lydia Shire puts a spin on comforting, modern Italian in the Liberty Hotel, with extensive wine and mozzarella bar. – Befitting its location in the uber-chic The Liberty Hotel, Scampo's (Italian for "Escape") stylish dining room hosts a mix of dressed-down hotel guests and eager Boston foodies. The sleek setting includes two full bars and a copper-colored dining room that features a wall of wine bottles. The large, fast-moving open kitchen features a raging brick oven, as well as a tandoori oven. Menu highli... read more
Wish I ate here – My first piece of advice is bring a sweater or a jacket. It's like a refirgerator in there. Our first table, in the icebox section, was too cold to handle. I looked around and didn't see many people around. Probably because ice crystals would have formed on their food. We requested a new spot, but were told to wait at the bar until something in the "dining area" opened up. Dining area? So, where were we just at? We sat at the bar for a while eyeing another couple that were seated at our old table. They were... read more
