    This little hole in the wall was a slice of Italy. It had a very authentic feel and reminded me of places that I have eaten at when traveling in Italy. The polenta was delicious. The marinara was very salty. The lemon chicken and fish dish were wonderful. The salmon was done quite well but a bit too salty. The Brussels sprouts were yummy too but also slightly heavy on the salt. The cocktails were good but a little watered down- that's what I get for going with the house vodka. Our waitress was lovely and gave us great service. I liked the experience over all and will return. It was much nicer than so many of the others in the area.

    This was a cute little restaurant, very few tables inside make sure you make a reservation. Everyone was very pleasant and the food and service was quick. We ordered calamari and bruschetta for appetizers. The bruschetta was excellent, we should have ordered more. The calamari was unique, I've never been served calamari that wasn't fried. The texture wasn't for me, but the garlic lemon sauce was tasty. I really liked my pork chops, the apricot sauce was a nice touch.

    What a fantastic local spot. My only complaint is that it took me this long to go! The bruchetta was delicious..as was my crab stuffed salmon. The salmon was cooked to perfection and the flavors were spot on. Ended the meal with the pistachio cake ...light and airy..not too sweet and paired perfectly with a cappuccino. Highly recccomend reservations!

    I left a review a couple of years ago and just wanted to reinforce what I said then. Simply put, this place is wonderful. The food is outstanding. The service is great and the atmosphere, is perfect if you're looking for a cozy, low key dining spot. It's a small place, with what appear to be a number of regular customers, so make a reservation. I can't wait to go back.

    A very cute restaurant in downtown North Attleboro! It's definitely small, so I'd recommend making a reservation if you plan to visit. The food was absolutely delicious!

    I went to visit friends last weekend and we went to Cucina 38 which has become a favorite of theirs. This spot is a cute neighborhood restaurant filled with yummyness. The staff at first I felt was not that friendly but once we sat down they warmed up. The waitress was kind and attentive. I ordered a salad to start which was so good and the margarita pizza which was delicious. My friend got a fennel and sausage pasta which looked so good as well. My favorite part of this meal was the cannolis. OH EM GEE! These were the best I have ever had! I could have taken them home haha. I would recommend coming here for easy casual lunch or just for some warm comfort food.

    Highly recommended place is very small but the food is great ... The chef made me an appetizer with shrimp that was not on the menu and did a dish for dinner with veal and where I'm picky he did it the way I liked it and with pasta my wife is easy she got a pizza Very nice staff an we got to meet the owners to my surprise the chef an his wife are the owners ty for making it a good experience an we will be back soon

It had a perfect kick of spice, very tasty and the portion was huge. The quality of all the dishes seemed higher than expected at a tavern/sports bar type place.

There were a couple empty seats at the bar, some of which seemed suspiciously untouched and we soon realized why; the AC was blasting overheard and although it felt nice in the beginning since it was HOT outside, after 10 minutes it felt frigid. We stayed there anyways since there was a huge TV right in front of us. I wasn't sure what to order, but the chicken and burrata sandwich sounded really good, mostly because of the sweet, salty, and creamy contrast. I ended up ordering it and upgraded my fries to parmesan fries. My friend ordered a burger with sweet potato fries. After about 15 minutes, the food came out. I knew the chicken would be grilled since I asked before ordering so my expectations were low, but it was surprisingly still moist, did taste grilled, but lacked some seasoning. I did not open the sandwich to check how much burrata there was, but adding some more would not have hurt. The fig jam was definitely the star of the show. It overpowered some of the other flavors, but I didn't mind. The caramelized onions might've also contributed to the sweetness; they were soft and good. I was glad they did not add too much arugula since it can get bitter. The ciabatta was a good choice of bread for this sandwich, and it came lightly toasted. I did not taste much of the garlic. The fries were good. They were like regular fries, but with some parmesan cheese sprinkled on top and a parmesan dipping sauce. I also ordered some secret sauce for my fries because I went down a Reddit rabbit hole and was compelled to try it. I was not impressed and it indeed tasted a lot like ketchup and mayo, with maybe a couple other things. We stayed for the full match including overtime. Thankfully it wasn't busy enough where I felt they would kick us out for taking up chairs for too long. Our waitress was great.

(This is my second review as my first was about 7 years ago and I believe they were just starting...had to give it another shot!) Ok I am Mexican and I love finding places that show our delectable cuisine. This place is a fine example. I started off with a michelada and it was made just right. The correct blend of lime, spice, and seasonings. My son ordered the birria ramen. He is a soup guy and he did not leave any behind. It was tasty and with a little lime it was perfect! I am a molcajete connoisseur and have tried them everywhere I have visited in RI and MA ....and I tell you it is the best I have had! What makes it is the cheesy sauce! My friend and I could not stop spooning it that we asked for bowl to have it! (My mouth is watering.) This family owned restaurant is beautifully decorated. Colorful and welcoming! Our waiter Gabriel added to our experience. We will continue to visit the wonderful location!

The Birria Burrito was good, not amazing. The consome wasn't rich and flavorful like it should have been. Mostly just some beef stock with Onion and cilantro added in. The beef in the burrito didn't have a ton of depth or any of those hallmark spices that I'd expect. Overall, nice space, good experience and I'd give it another go at some point. But my search for excellent authentic Mexican continues.

I thought the band was good in all of its incarnations. There is a definite music theme throughout the décor. From the mural of rockers which covers an entire wall to the Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin base drums and the guitar shaped neon. If you wanted to watch the band and could not get a seat in the front room, there were a couple of cctv's showing the performers in the back and bar area. There is a full bar of about 20 seats with a decent selection of draft beer. When we were there the place was packed and the two bartenders were doing a good job of keeping up with the demand. There were about ten tables and no waitresses. You can order at the bar but I believe a sign is needed to direct one to the appropriate place to order. Food is available. We had a pizza that was very good. Mike
