I liked the friendly family vibe that I got as soon as I got in the door. The wait staff was friendly and helpful but probably too attentive. If my water glass got below half, someone would rush over and fill my glass and my date’s glass. It interrupted our conversation. I thought the menu selections were good and reasonably priced, but my pork dish was over-seasoned and overcooked/dry. My date liked her dish (though that was overly seasoned too). The bread and bruschetta were amazing! The creme brule and cannoli were tasty – I particularly liked the unique cannoli filling!

Amazing food and ambiance. Owners are very friendly and knowledgeable. Chef played piano for us while we were there. Eggplant very good and sauce impeccable. Clams and escargot.

We were looking for a new place to dine to to celebrate a milestone birthday and selected this place based on reviews . As we got to the place we were all in doubt and speculated if we should go in . But our speculation turned out to being a spectacular find.

Don’t be in doubt by the inconspicuous location and outside . Walk in to discover some authentic Italian ( Sicilian ) food.

A home style restaurant with cozy yet spacious quarters with an old world Italian charm.

An engaging couple Chef Filippo Russo and his wife are the owners. They clearly love food and entertaining. This place was opened in 1988 making it the oldest Italian restaurant in Somerville .

Bertha (Berti) who is the Chef Russo’s wife was the hostess and our server . She is a bundle of energy and kept us entertained with her charm and warmth.

We tried quite a few items and loved every one of them as it offered something special .

Octopus in red sauce – tender and saucy

Fried arugula with Parmesan and cream sauce, you will want more

Their Bruschetta is one a kind – MUST TRY

Shrimp pasta was our groups pick of the day and it didn’t disappoint. Jumbo shrimp with semolina pasta and peas.

I picked the fresh cavateli with marinara and sausage – I highly recommend it .

Pan seared Mahi Mahi was delicately flavored well seasoned with fresh flavors.

Profiterole and Millefoglie were our desserts.Profiterole was the star and we ordered a 2nd one to satisfy our greed .

Chef & Owner Filippo Russo played the piano and sang for the guests and a special birthday wish for our table top . He is Sicilian and his food reflected the fresh flavors of the island .

Overall this place stole our hearts in every aspect. The food , ambiance , the owners.. it is a place to celebrate with family and friends.

This is one of the most authentic Italian restaurants I have ever encountered. Every dish is amazing, and the daily specials are absolutely the way to go when ordering. If you ask nicely, the chef will come out and entertain the diners at the piano! An amazing experience, and even better food. Also BYOB.

Thank you for such a warm and memorable meal!! Such a lovely experience from authentic Sicilian cuisine we felt like we were back in Palermo to the one of a kind hospitality. The reviews here say it all. Wish them many many years here and can’t wait to bring my family. Simply unique in all the ways. Chef has such a beautiful singing voice too. What a treat to have him play songs for us. Made us feel so lucky to live close to Somerville
