Excellent Italian restaurant in Needham. The pizza was as though I was in Naples Italy. Homemade meatballs like Nonni made. The service was fantastic and ambience authentic and modern

” Authentic Is so real “
Authentic Italian food is so real , fresh and just delicious. Deep rooted with its authentic flavors and ingredients. You’ll leave this place feeling like you just visited Italy minus the plane ticket . Don’t forget to top off your meal with the cappuccino. The service is amazing. They provide great attention to detail and make sure you’re well taken care of . Just like you ate at your Italian friend’s house that treat you like family . The vibe is welcoming. Lots of parking so no worries .

We recently held a private event at Spiga and could not have been happier with the outcome. The manager, Jose, was incredibly helpful, supportive and professional, as was the staff. The food was delicious, fresh and flavorful. The ambiance is warm and inviting and the space is very private. We were able to use the whole room during Sunday lunchtime when they are not usually open. We have also had dinner at Spiga many times and always enjoyed it. It is a hidden gem and we will definitely be going back!

Spiga is our absolute favorite restaurant!! We’ve come a dozen times and it is always the best meal! This particular time, I made a reservation for Father’s Day but I accidentally booked it for a week prior – the manager was so incredible and could hear the desperation in my voice, so squeezed us in and made it work by his own kindness, even though the restaurant was fully booked. Our waiter was amazing – the service was incredible from beginning to end and our meal was absolutely delicious and so freshly homemade as always! We cannot wait to come back, thank you Spiga!!

Really surprised to discover this place here – while we had heard good things about it, it was the first time we went here and truly enjoyed the food and laid back ambience. The food was as good as some of the better north end restaurants without the many hassles of north end and the service was attentive and knowledgeable. Starters were good but the burrata for example was not the best of best though the sauce that came with it was pretty good …the shrimp was OK.
Entrees and pasta were decent sized and tasty. The entrees came with some risottos which were both excellent. The pasta was fresh and tasty. The desserts were stand out good – all of them – look at the pics to make up your minds.
Lots of parking and easy access so there was absolutely no hassle in getting there or leaving.

The chicken dish was okay. There was only one gf option for a chicken dish. Small portions. Flavor lacking. My friend got the steak and she said it was a bit overcooked. The atmosphere is great-loved decor. If you’re hungry and looking for food gf options, I would say look elsewhere. This was close to our hotel which is why we chose this (the Sheraton Needham). Also, both my friend and I got the Eggplant side dish with our meals and both had horrible stomach pains – we think due to Soy or some type of “filler” that it was cooked with.

We love Spiga!! Jose is an absolute angel and went above and beyond to make my sister’s baby shower a raving success. The food was incredible (both for the shower and also in general for dinner, as my family eats here all the time!) and the space is beautiful and relaxing. Cannot say enough wonderful things about Spiga and truly never enough about Jose! If you are looking for a place to host your beautiful event, look no further!

The whole experience here was incredible! My waiter, Fernando, was very attentive and professional. Jose came over to check on us after the meal and chat briefly which was great! We had mushroom arancini, veal meatballs, vegetarian lasagna, and a cannoli. Every dish was to die for, I was very impressed! The ambiance was the best part, very quaint and small which was very nice. I would recommend!

We sat outdoors at Spiga, and I really enjoyed our waitress and my entree. My partner was a bit less impressed with his food, but he’s a Sicilian cook himself, so he’s often less impressed than I am with our food choices. He had the veal Parmigiano and felt that it could have been crisper and more highly spiced. My fish and risotto were excellent.
We both loved the canolli dessert and would highly recommend it.

Ordered take out, checken under the brick had blood on the bones, clearly undercooked. The other dishes were gnocchi and veal cutlet and were ok, nothing to be proud of.
