Food was amazing from the appetizers (calamari, mussels) to the main dishes and everything was delicious. We were able to order off the menu which has so many choices. And I don't want to forget the specials which were indeed, *special*! The service from Dina and her team of ass't servers and bus people was amazing! How she handled 22 people so calmly, warmly, and efficiently is beyond me. Very comfortable and clean restaurant, including the bathrooms. We can't wait to return to this wonderful restaurant. It's totally worth the drive!

My best friend and I have been wanting to try Femmina since he moved to Medford a year again…read more Finally the situation presented itself and we decided to head there on a Friday night. The parking lot was PACKED and it took a bit to find a spot. We were told there would be a 30 minute wait, which was significantly less than I thought considering they do not take reservations for parties less than 6. We were actually sat in 15 minutes and our server brought us waters and Arnold palmers while we perused the menu and specials. After placing our order, a food runner brought us buttery warm garlic rolls and a different style of crusty bread as well. We decided to start with the arancini ( Italian rice balls) which came with four huge rice balls stuffed with a ground beef bolognese style and served with marinara. Our house salads came with a thousand island style dressing and consisted of chopped romaine, grape tomatoes, and cucumbers. Very basic but the dressing seemed like it could be made in house. For our entrees, I did the limoncello chicken and my best friend did the paparadelle with lobster. Mine had the most decadent lemon cream sauce bathing several chicken cutlets covered in crab meat with melted cheese and a huge mound of capellini. His was covered in chunks of lobster claw meat, mushrooms, prosciutto, and peas with a sherry blush sauce. Both entrees were huge and we took more than half home but everything was delicious. For dessert we opted to share the tiramisu since it's made in house. It had a thin layer of chocolate on top, which made for the most delicious mocha flavor. Our server was wonderful, the place was packed with people celebrating birthdays and everyone sang every time another candlelit dessert was paraded through the dining room. The ambience is cozy and comfortable and I can't wait to go back!

They have been here for 25 years the closest to real Italian food to being in Italy. Great for groups it's a BYOB. The portion sizes are large enough to split between adults.

The owners are very nice and they are very hospitable.

Another visit to ITA101 and another fabulous meal! On a Friday morning we made reservations for…read morethat same night at 7:15pm on Open Table. We arrived a little over 15 minutes before our reservation and were seated immediately. I love the size of the restaurant. Compact with tables set very close together adds what feels like a small, homey vibe to your dining experience. Our server was outstanding! He brought energy, knowledge of the menu, professionalism, and class. He elevated our experience and may have been the best server we've had at ITA since we've been frequenting. When dining at ITA, like always, we always have to order a variety of dishes to split. We started with a perfectly cooked Oven Roasted Cauliflower appetizer. Split 3 different pastas: a rich & savory Carbonara (probably the star of the night), a gorgeous cavatelli with tender wild boar ragu, and a spicy but balanced capellini with spare ribs. All of their pasta, of course, is made in house and is beautiful and rustic, and is always cooked perfectly Al dente with a great bite. The combination of the creaminess of the sauce, the saltiness and texture of the guanciale, and the doneness of the tagliolini; led us to agree that the Carbonara was our favorite. We were split on the other two, but you can't go wrong with any of the pasta dishes on the menu. We've never had one we weren't blown away by. The entree we chose was a fluke stuffed with shrimp and served over a bed of shiitakes. The crust on the fluke was to die for and the presentation couldn't have been better. ITA is always such an elevated dining experience. You'll be hard pressed to find local, authentic Italian food that is as unique as it is here. There are a couple things we really love about it here other than what I've already mentioned earlier in this review. First, it's great that it's BYO as it helps offset the prices (which are well worth it for the quality of food served) as we can split and enjoy a nice bottle of wine with dinner. Second, the menu is constantly rotating every week and part of their menu highlights and features different regions in Italy. There are always new menu items we've never had before. I'm sure my wife feels the same, but I already cannot wait until we're back dining at ITA101.

A wonderful experience all around!…read more My gorgeous and super sweet Godson treated a small group of us for his mom's birthday. The restaurant is small and quaint, with simple, understated decor. It's located on Main Street in Medford (adorable and reminds me of Haddonfield). A relatively small menu, with stellar selections. I went with the Halibut, that was accented with a pistachio cream. It was truly excellent! Two others had the stuffed chicken legs. Both loved it! The remaining two had homemade pasta dishes. Both loved it! I had a small pre dinner salad (pretty good) and we were given complimentary homemade Focaccia bread. It looked amazing but I had a carb load at a breakfast baby shower, so I passed (but was drooling!). Carol, our server was so on point, very accommodating and a great photographer (we were all laughing with all the shots and her posing of us - loved it)!!!! I doubt Id return, simply because of the hefty prices, but Id definitely recommend going for a special occasion.

They had a pineapple burrata appetizer special which was something I haven't seen before so that immediately caught my attention.

When we first arrived, we were greeted by a gum-chewing hostess and seated right away, which was fine. It took a few minutes for our waiter, Juan, to come over and take our order. We didn't order any appetizers, so our salads came out quickly. After that, we waited...and waited...and waited. The delay was long enough that the manager came over to ask how everything was and whether we were interested in dessert. I had to tell him that we hadn't even received our meals yet. When the food finally arrived, everyone else enjoyed their dishes--veal parm, chicken franchise, and a few others. I ordered the special, described as a porterhouse pork chop with potatoes, vegetables, and a mushroom cream sauce. Thankfully, I asked for the sauce on the side, because it was very sweet--even the waiter mentioned that. The pork chop itself was cooked the way I like it, but it was not a porterhouse cut. A true porterhouse pork chop should be bone-in with both the tenderloin and loin sections. What I received was more like a pork loin cut, and while it was listed as 16 oz, it didn't appear to be anywhere near that size. Moving forward, we'll likely take a break from Casa

The fresh basil sauce was flavorful. The generous portion of seafood and pasta was well worth the price and it was all cooked perfectly. We did not have room for dessert right after dinner but you can bet we took home the rich peanut butter bomb for later. The service was on point as well. The staff is very efficient, warm, welcoming, and so extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend and I will definitely be a repeat customer!

We ordered the calamari, Trio di Mare, and the grilled salmon, and every dish was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. The complimentary house salad, fresh bread, and cheesecake dessert were all excellent and made the meal feel complete. The atmosphere is comfortable and perfect for a relaxing dinner with family or friends. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is that the restaurant charges a credit card service fee without informing customers in advance. A simple notice on the menu or by the register would go a long way in avoiding an unpleasant surprise at the end of an otherwise enjoyable meal. Overall, the food and ambiance make Cucina Carini worth visiting, and I would gladly return.
