Massimino’s is a local spot where you eat like you were back in Italy. A Mediterranean menu, that works withhold pressed olive oils, hand made pasta and the best cuts of meats. Our seafoods all hand selected. The wines that accompany our menu are amazing, working with smaller vineyards from italy. Come and enjoy what the North End is really like. Buon Appetito.
Italian-American classics served in petite, rustic surroundings with a familial atmosphere.

Cozy Italian restaurant off the beaten path in the heart of the North End. Friendly, knowledgeable waitstaff too. Nonna’s meatball was fantastic. The sauce was very good. The scallops, shrimp limoncello was amazing. Fresh fish and great noodles too. I will return to this restaurant in the future.

The food and service was fantastic! My parents love going to Italian restaurants and this is now their favorite one in Boston. We started with a fabulous antipasto and I had an espresso martini – one of the best I have ever had. Then my dad and I shared linguine with clams and vinegar peppers with chicken and sausage. My mom had the chicken broccoli penne in a garlic and oil sauce. Everything was delicious!

Anais provided exceptional service to us even hand picked me some chili peppers ️ from out front because I asked to try them. She didn’t have to do that but it pleased me that she did.
Atmosphere was pretty good, felt old school and rustic which was good feeling.
Food wasn’t that great however, the food was a pretty small portion size for the price, the sauce carried this place to a 3 star food rating from me but I wouldn’t return, unless it was for more of Anais’s peppers.

Have never been before so was a little nervous trying without it be recommended. 6 of us stopped in for a lunch and every meal was good. The eggplant was a stand out. Service was great and the place was very cozy and comfortable. Good job everyone. Well done. We had the linguini with anchovy, seafood pasta, cacio a Pepe, amatriciana. All good. Drinks were solid.

This has been my favorite place in the north end for many years. It was a busy Friday night and we didn’t have a reservation, but were lucky enough to score two seats at the bar downstairs. We enjoyed Clams Casino and Artichoke Margarita for appetizers . Our main dishes were Escarole Fagioli and the Shrimp Margarita. Everything was absolutely delicious! Our bartender/server Marysa was so much fun to talk to as well as delivering impeccable service. They offer a wonderful wine selection and full bar. Lots of North End energy in the atmosphere. Thanks for a great night!

Service is great! Bianca will make you feel at home, totally cater to all your wants & needs. I had the amazing homemade linguine pasta with shrimp & scallops and they made it light on the cream sauce for me. They have gluten free penne option. Highly recommend. Last photo is of the lasagna, Bolognese. Chefs kiss.. delish.

After waiting almost 10 minutes at the door, we ware assisted (I had reservation) we finally were guided to a room downstairs. What we ordered was delicious and the services was good. It was a little loud because the restaurant was busy, but the food was on time. Service was super..!! I do recommend it if you want to have a taste of Italy in Boston

What an awesome Italian dinner experience. Everything was amazing — octopus was perfect, burrata was great, the meatball is out of this world, calamari is solid. The wait staff was so great and even recommended a good wine that was below my target price.

We were recommended to Massimino’s by a friend. A restaurant we’ve been waiting to try. Our server Bianca was amazing. Super attentive, checked on us whenever she could. Paul should be extremely proud of his employee. We will definitely be back.
