   Terrible. Placed in the dungeon downstairs with no airflow. Asked to move and the only option was to stay in the dungeon closer to a stairwell with some air. They boggled my dairy allergy. Multiple attempts to communicate with the server. We ended up with cold food and cold service. Never again. There are too many good options in the North End. Skip this place.

   Food was super amazing, as was the Italian. Met my cousin and her fiancé who live in Boston and recommended. It was ❤️ on a plate! I’ll be back!

   Save your time and money and do not come here. One of the worst dining experiences I’ve had in years! The waiter could not have been less interested in taking our orders and serving us. For instance, the drinks came after a round of bread and appetizers. Entrées took over an hour to come out for a table of two. No apology or proper acknowledgement from the server. Dining room is barely full and yet we were ignored. I will not be coming back! What a waste.

   BUSY Saturday night. Even though staff were very friendly, dinner norms such as being served TAP water (15+ min) (and actually realizing when I got home that I was charged $8 for a bottle of water), appetizer order taken (right at 30 min), complimentary bread (30+ min) and entrees (90+ min) came much later than standard service. Previous visit was excellent. If seated downstairs in the lowest level, you must avoid being sat near the restrooms and ice machine…extremely noisy.

    Absolutely amazing. I am local to the North End and have lived here for years, but someway, somehow this was my first time dining at Assaggio! We came for a girls dinner to celebrate a birthday and were beyond thrilled with the entire experience. The food was so delicious, and the wine list was excellent and reasonably priced too. The flavors of every dish that we had were so elegant and refined, yet felt like home at the same time-- the perfect combination in my opinion! The wait staff was extremely friendly and attentive, and the manager and hostess were so welcoming as well. I also loved the vibe of the restaurant-- great energy with excellent food without being noisy or wild. We will absolutely be back soon-- it's both a neighborhood staple and someplace I'll absolutely bring more friends/family in the future!

    Phenomenal meal as always! Forgot how good the Grigliata is- not to be missed and you love fish. Portion could easily be for two especially if you have appetizers which we did not knowing what we ordered. I also had shrimp fra diavolo which was a request- fresh pasta delicious. Pair with wine- great evening.

    This was the third time in a row thw food was too salty. It's a shame because it would have been good otherwise. Way too much salt in their pastas and sauces. Great service and ambiance. Go for the drinks I guess.

    We were celebrating my friend’s birthday and we were seated downstairs right underneath a TV showing sports games. When asked if we could have the TV turned off the manager said this was not possible and moved us one table back (still in direct sight of the TV). The lighting was poor and having the TV flashing in the background really detracted from the purpose of the meal, which was a nice meal out, not a sports bar event. Worse than the ambiance was the food. Both my friend and I got sick after eating here! So not only was the dinner ambiance ruined we also got sick! Worst birthday dinner experience I’ve had in Boston. Highly disappointing… the one thing I will say is that the serving staff was attentive but the manager being unwilling to accommodate us due to the TV situation was unacceptable at an “intimate” restaurant suggested for “romantic dining”… I’m sorry but when was basketball considered romantic!

    I intended to have a great time, as I heard great things about this restaurant. The food was, moderately, well prepared and the Dine in Boston menu was comparable to other establishment The biggest problem with my experience was: two other table adjacent to me were served before I was. Both table actually got their deserts and were finished very close to the time I received my main course The wait staff and the manager were pleasant, enough, but the excuse that they made a mistake is unacceptable. In my opinion service levels should be higher not lower. By the way I intentionally gave my waiter a 20% gratuity, not to prove a point, because these folks work hard. My disappointment would never allow me to short change the waiter, but I would think twice about going to this establishment again

    We ate for Dine Out Boston. The food was terrific although the octopus was a little over done (hence only 4 stars on food). Every thing else was sublime. The Earl Grey panna cotta made me want to pick the plate up and lick it. Our server Kevin was a doll…..gave his opinion when asked about wine profiles and made sure we were all good. Ditto the bus boy (didn’t catch his name) who was as cute as a button and also attentive without being intrusive. We’d absolutely go back!

    We went there for the restaurant week, I make a reservation for 6 but add one more person at the day of our appointment and they set up the table nicely for us. It was a very busy night, the drink and food came in a timely manner. their restaurant week menu has good variety. The food quality are great and portions are decent. Calamari & Fritto Misto, sauté of Claims and the Filet Mignon are outstanding. We already plan to coming back in the near future.

    FOOD WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND SOOO FRESH! Service was lacking!!! Sat for 15 mins without water or drinks I had to get the bartender to help us at our table. The manager is working on getting the servers trained up. This should not stop you from going if you would like a good meal. I would highly suggest sitting at the bar if you would like immediate service.

    We liked our appetizers-carpaccio and clams. Bread was delicious and plentiful and attentive service. Our main dishes were not acceptable. Chicken parmesan and pasta. The chicken was tough and overcooked and blackened so hard to even cut and the pasta was undercooked. We were disappointed. We did not pay for those dishes-thankfully but left hungry.
