Another 10/10 visit to Tonino in the books!…read more It's such a hard reservation to get, but so worth it. I'm actually getting salivating while posting this review and looking back at my food pictures. I get the Eggplant & Ricotta Pizza as my appetizer and the Rigatoni Amatriciana as my entree each time I go - because they're consistently amazing. The service is always warm and friendly, and I also love the music playlist they play. Believe the hype & come to Tonino!!

People rave about this place being better than the north end; I would say it's definitely more…read moreoriginal, and the approach to food is much more intentional. However, I don't know that it lived up to the hype that I anticipated. We got the pizza Bianca with ricotta with hot honey, which was basically just like plain toasted focaccia and ricotta (wasn't anything to write home about). The taleggio was 100% our least favorite and we didn't even finish half. We had asked the waiter to describe taste profile, which they said was a "little funky" and had asked for clarification if it was closer to blue cheese. Once it arrived, it was like a verrrrrry strong/stinky Brie on the inside. The balsamic didn't really contribute to the taste at all. Sad that we didn't like this/kinda made me feel yucky after eating. The cavatelli was very good- nice light creamy sauce with the sausage and bitter broccolini. Very well balanced. Forgot to take a pic of the tiramisu but it was good, too! It's kinda salty (they add sea salt to the top). Drink menu was limited. Had two different glasses of red wine but wish they had something more full bodied on the menu!

I simply don't get the rating. Soda bread was just not good. The chicken curry was terrible:…read morechicken was so tough, flavor lacking. I just don't get it. Wife had a simple salad and compared to the salad she had last night at Tavern on the Square, this was a 1/10. Service slow. Best thing was they gladly took back a drink my wife didn't like - not their fault, just too sweet for her. Maybe an off night. People were nice. Nice place tucked away - had to look carefully for it.

Fish and chips were disappointing. I forget to ask if the fish was haddock. It was pollard which I…read moredont like as well. My fault. Iced tea was good. Husband had wings which were good and octopus which was not good. It was tough and off tasting. Won't go back

Both drinks were strong, but still had great flavor! Just taking one star off since the lighting was quite bright when we were there, even though it was a Friday night.

Extraordinary addition to the theater district/midtown Boston…read more Friendly staff, everyone with energy to spare. Great music. I sampled the following drinks: Pimms Cup Fruity liqueur cut with ginger beer and lemon juice, so doesn't taste too sweet, begs for seconds. Louisiana Express Sweet punch, perhaps too sweet, but the guava plays happily with vodka. Whattamelon Bae Perhaps not always on the menu, but if you're in the mood for an ice cold slurry of watermelon and vodka, lemon and rosemary, you're in luck. Finally, and of course, the vaunted mac and cheese should be on every human's bucket list. Gooey and garlic infused. Cozy, great drinks, great music, there's nothing not to like here.

I went in expecting big things after all the hype (Michelin recognition, "best Thai in Boston,"…read moreetc.). Unfortunately, the food came across as pretty average. It might be okay if you've never had good Thai food before, else you'll probably be disappointed. Don't get the beef massaman , it was way too sweet. Chicken ka praw was too dry. Only good thing was the white rice. Wouldn't rush back, but your mileage may vary if you're into the vibe and cocktails more than the food.

TAKEOUT review * My…read moredaughter's friend recommended this place. Easy to order online. Keep in mind they are tapas so the quantity is smaller than an entree. There were 6 of us and we ordered 6 things, and fortunately we weren't ravenously hungry because otherwise we might've needed at least 3 more. We ordered mushroom salad, pad paa (a scrumptious concoction of veggies in sauce that comes with jasmine rice), crab fried rice, roasted brussel sprouts, grilled pork cheek, chicken ka praw. The order was ready for pickup within 30 minutes (which is what it predicted online). The food was freshly made, hot, ready to go at 8 p.m. and the staff were friendly and helpful. It looked like the customers there were having a fun time. We all really enjoyed every bite, particularly the pad paa with jasmine rice. It ended up being enough food for us as well.

This chicken is now my go-to. Fantastic! So why four stars? The noise level inside is crazy high. I have fancy high-tech hearing aids and they could barely keep up.

Every time I visit, I end up ordering something different - and I haven't had a bad dish yet. The cocktails are expertly crafted. The service has been great (we sit at the bar). If you're tired of the same old menus at every other restaurant, go here. It's easily become my favorite reliable-yet-exciting neighborhood spot.
