Reviews for Carlo's Cucina Italiana in Allston, MA
Divine!! Tiny little joint, but massive portions of absolutely delightful pasta. Loved it!! Arancini app alone was huge - could... have been a meal in and of itself - and totes delicious. We continued though with the penne w chicken & broccoli, andFettuccine Marysa, and basically fed ourselves for the whole next day just on leftovers lol - HUGE. Service was perfect -attentive but not overbearing. Carlo's is now on our Must Do list for every visit to Boston/Cambridge ?????????? Read more
Excellent Italian restaurant outside of south Boston. Everything was perfectly presented and cooked to perfection. The taste was... exquisite and the lunch menu was very well priced. Chris was very pleasent and was very attentive to us and everyone else at thefamily style restaurant. I highly recommend this restaurant and you should give it a try, you will thank me afterwards:) Read more
Best Italian food this side of North End, consistently serving great meals since the 90?s ?The Rachel? with its sausage,... meatballs chicken and eggplant parmigiana is hard to beat when sharing with someone. In short: haven?t had a bad meal here ever,from simple shrimp scampi to fra diavloo. Read more
The food is really good and service is great too. Expect big portions and know that the food is Italian American not Italian.
Great small little place. Service is top notch with food to match. The location is pretty small. I imagine on a busy night it... would feel cramped but there was plenty of space for us. Food is served quickly and the waiting staff is quick to take yourorder, filled your drinks, and bring out the check when you're ready. Worth going to for sure. Read more
If you're driving parking is very difficult. The restaurant is small maybe 10 tables. We got seated right away, it wasn't very... busy. The waitress made great suggestions and the food was very good. Going to the restroom could be challenging for those withbad knees, because you've got to go down some stairs to the basement. Read more
The food is very well prepared and well portioned. I was pleasantly surprised with the reasonable prices. We had a table of six... and all agreed their individual entrees were delicious. We will definitely return as the staff were professional and courteous. Read more
Veal chop marsala special was amazingly flavorful. The sauce and risotto matched perfectly. However, upon a return trip a week... later, I got the Marsala chicken with risotto, it was just okay. Perhaps I got really lucky the first time and the chef wasinspired. Read more
