Our son recently moved within walking distance to Molinari's. Based on posted reviews we decided to give it a try. Good... decision. We were seated on time despite it being very busy. Server was attentive and accurate. Kitchen has their act together.Food looked and tasted great. Portions are large and prices are very reasonable. Overall this neighborhood spot is a greatalternative to the North End. Plenty of free street parking, minutes off of the Expressway. Read more
One of the best meals ever. Flash fried calamari, sole picatta, chicken over pene..
I highly recommend Molinari's! The ambiance here is wonderful and the restaurant is tastefully decorated. The waitress was... friendly and service was incredibly efficient. Above all, it has several delicious vegetarian options -- the bruschetta andMargherita pizza were incredibly flavorful and wholesome! Read more
Always a couple of seats at the bar. We wait all year for the squash blossom app to swing back around. Garlic cheese bread is... devine. Skipping the caprese though, strike 3 for us, needs more balsamic. Still, 5 stars, as otherwise pastas, pizzasconsistently delish, service is quick. Bartender will make wine suggestions, this Lambrusco our latest favorite. Garlic lovers,don't forget to take a chicken broccoli ziti to go, best 2nd day-we prefer to heat ours up on the grill.

I wasn’t wild about the place but my four guests all loved it. My biggest complaint was the place was pretty noisy and a bit... crowded. (It’s a small space) The staff could not have been nicer from the second we walked in the door. Our server waswonderful. We started with a chicken wing appetizer that was very nice. My wife had some pasta with lobster. They make alltheir own pasta which everybody seems to love. I’m the type of guy who thinks the stuff I buy in the supermarket in a box isjust as good.???? I had a chicken Parm sandwich which was pretty good. The bread was very nice. Next time I’m going to trythe meatball sandwich. The desserts were very good. There is sufficient street parking so you should be able to find a spoteasily enough. My wife wants to go back and try the pizza. Next time we will go on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. We had a 7PM reservation the night we went and I think that’s why it might’ve been a little crowded. Check it out…. Read more

I ordered takeout, I did not dine in. However, my food was five stars. The ordered the Arancini and Wood Oven Chicken... wings. The ARANCINI is soooo good. I wish I ordered 2 of them instead of one because I wanted more. I also was very pleasedwith the wings. They were very good and seasoned. Read more
I ordered some take out from there a while back and it was delicious. The Pizza was phenomenal. Just the other night I went... there for dinner. The drinks were a little lackluster but the bar was very crowded and busy. The further we got was absolutelydelicious though. I'll definitely be going back probably time and time again. They do have an awesome Arancini appetizer that ispretty delicious that's made with a touch of pesto. The staff was all very friendly. Although the atmosphere was very loud, Itwas still enjoyable.. We just had to raise our voices slightly so we could hear each other in conversation. Read more
