The owner Sal has been here for 51 years and hasn't changed his recipe and there's no need to! The bread in the garlic knots and the pizza crust are the perfect combination of crispy outside and chewy inside. Great local spot- will definitely be coming back here again!

The minute I walked in I knew I came to the right place. It really took me back to those nostalgic days with those familiar smells I grew up loving. Everything is made fresh, and to order at K&S Italian specialties. I wound up buying their pasta salad, fresh Italian bread, imported dry pasta and cookies. This place was busy and I saw many people ordering their different types of sandwiches which are large. I love that they have a sandwich with chicken cutlet, broccoli rabe and fresh mozzarella. They make all different kinds of pasta dishes and they do catering too. As I walked around I noticed they have wonderful imported soppressatas, ( dry cured salami's) fresh pastas,and dry pastas, imported olive oils, balsamic's , Italian cookies, delicious Italian breads. Imported meats and cheeses. They sell beautiful imported dishes and platters from Italy. The staff is very friendly and a lot of locals come here. I highly recommend this store

Needless to say, the food was amazing and the brussel sprouts were a personal favorite. I LOVED the brownie made with sweet potato(??)! It was unexpectedly delicious.

Before I entered the establishment, I could smell the food from outside and knew we were in for a treat. Kudos to the DIG team for accommodating 50 people at one time, while having some of the friendliest personalities I've seen in the food industry. I started off the evening with a ginger mint lemonade. I originally declined, because I hate ginger. However, the combination of flavors made the ginger taste subtle, and I thoroughly enjoyed the refreshing beverage. I thought the experience would wrap up with a demo then dinner, but I was wrong. We got to work in the kitchen, building our own focaccia, and this interactive experience is one I will cherish forever. I also appreciate the focaccia kit to make at home. For dinner, I ordered the steak and potatoes, which was a hearty meal. Chunks of potato and potato skin in my mashed potatoes? Count me in! The chili lime brussel sprouts soon became soggy, and could have used a little less salt. The sweet potato brownie was a pleasant surprise, and didn't have me feeling bad about serving my sweet tooth. All in all, yesterday's meal left me full, but not bloated or sluggish. This is a prime example of "healthy eating" thanks to a restaurant that cares about its ingredients, preparation, customers, and staff.

I received a coupon in the mail for a free large cheese pizza, so I figured to give this place a…read moretry. The order was placed over the phone and slated for delivery. The food arrived in a timely manner. Besides the large cheese pizza, mini-Italian rice balls ($6.99), and a large antipasto salad ($10.99) were ordered. The pizza had a good amount of cheese present and it balanced well with the tomato sauce. The tomato sauce had lots of seasoning present it seemed like. The crust was a little doughy. It could have been cooked a little longer, but nothing drastic. Overall, the pizza was tasty. There were 6 rice balls present and they were bigger than I thought they would be. They appeared to contain some peas, ground beef, and some cheese present. They were decent, very crispy, but they seemed to be missing something such as seasoning on the beef and rice. The antipasto salad had mixed greens, ham, salami, provolone, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, Kalamata olives, roasted peppers & a house balsamic dressing. This was very good. There appeared to be more meat than mixed greens present, which is never a bad thing. Everything tasted fresh and was nicely presented. Will I go back? I would.

The restaurant is small, quaint, and cozy, run by a husband-and-wife team who split their time between Italy and Somerville. The authenticity and care really come through in both the food and the experience. We started with the bruschetta, and it was hands down the best bruschetta we've ever had - we still think about it. I ordered the Paccheri alla Norma, a fried eggplant pasta in a rich tomato sauce, and Matt had the rigatoni al ragù. Both were easily some of the best pasta dishes we've ever had. The service was wonderful, the decor was adorable, and we're honestly still dreaming about that meal. Perfect for couples or small family dinners. The best Italian restaurant in Somerville, hands down.

I…read morenever get excited about getting Italian food (I grew up in an Italian family and no one makes Italian food better than my mom) but I will definitely be returning to this place. The ambiance and service were all excellent (although it's a bit loud and cramped inside), but I was truly blown away by the food. I ordered the fried zucchini flower as an appetizer and the Bucatini alla Nonna as an entree. The zucchini flower was very popular and I noticed everyone around us ordering it. The flower itself was crispy and warm, and then stuffed with a rich and creamy cheese filling. It was much better than I expected, and I can see why the dish was so popular. My Bucatini was similarly amazing. I did not expect the pasta to be home-made, as this isn't heavily advertised for the restaurant, but the pasta was so fresh and actually home-made. The pasta was cooked perfectly (not too al dente but still with a bite). Even in NJ, I have found it so hard to find pasta that is truly home-made and cooked this well. The sauce was also exceptional. I truly enjoyed this meal and can't wait to return.
