My experience here was amazing! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was prompt, and they were so kind to offer me a free tiramisu dessert for my birthday. They were also very accommodating for my friend with celiac disease, and they made sure to cook her GF pasta in a separate pot so that there was no cross contamination to her food. Would definitely come back here again!!!

Incredible experience! We had visited the Old North Church and were walking back to Long Wharf to catch the Boston-Charlestown ferry. The menu posted outside said they had gluten-free pasta, so we decided to stop. We were immediately greeted by a gentleman and seated near the window. We later learned that Saraceno is his family restaurant, and his name is Tony. He took excellent care of us. Told me what dishes could be made gluten-free. Overall, a fantastic dining experience!

Small cozy Italian restaurant in the North End of Boston. They offer a good selection of dishes, including meat and sea food, ravioli and veal. Great service and delicious food served hot and fresh.
Highly recommended for date night or special occasions.

Yummy food, tomato sauce very very good, but overpriced I think for what you get. They sat us in a downstairs level that felt a little bit damp/humid. Ordered a coke, was charged $6 for each, which I find to be insane. Tip is automatically added at 20%.

We got seated in a second floor section, which was a little quieter. The bread and Parmesan and olive oil were very good, and the calamari is also delicious. I had the octopus and seafood mixture as my main. Perfectly seasoned and delicious.

We arrived around 4pm to an empty restaurant . At first glance we saw the sign that was certainly a relic and almost gave us second thoughts . We were greeted by a very personable Hostess/ waitress and she seated us immediately right in the small front window area that contains two small tables. Let the people watching begin!
We ordered a Couple of delicious Moretti Lager beers and were served ice water and bread along with freshly grated cheese and olive oil , both family style. The bread was crusty with a soft almost sour dough interior and the olive oil was just amazing! A beautiful imported extra virgin oil with a dense appearance and that beautiful first cold pressed color . The grated cheese was fresh too! Perhaps a Parmigiano Reggiano but I forgot to ask- no need to ask for cheese ever it is amply supplied for the table.
We started with fried calamari . This was the best fried calamari we had ever eaten. A Simple light coating and fried perfectly tender in fresh oil . The tomato sauce on the side was balanced and not overpowering . I also tried the olive oil and lemon which took the pristine calamari to another level of greatness.
For entrees we ordered the Veal Parmigiana and the Spaghetti with white clam sauce . Both entrees were excellent! The veal is fork tender and the clam sauce was surreal account my wife , a self proclaimed clam sauce expert. Dipping bread in the fresh clam sauce also prolonged the enjoyment.
Overall , Saraceno is a classic old school Italian restaurant that sticks with the basics done well. Service is great , the owner is an authentic old school hard working hands on presence in the restaurant too!
We will be back asap many times. As we got ready to leave the crowds descended upon Saraceno , obviously a well known dinner spot.

The Baked Ziti is world-class,
Try to make a reservation for parties larger than 3. The atmosphere is calm and family friendly.

Extremely cramped. It’s almost impossible to even sit down and get to your table without bumping into furniture and people. Typical north end Italian food menu. Nothing interesting. Very slow service. Extremely small. Fairly overpriced.
