Best caprese salad ever! Wonderful dining experience!

This is a wonderful restauranf! We had a family gathering of abouf 12 people. The staff could nor have been more friendly and accomodating. And the food? Fantastic. Meatballs and pasta... large and very tasty!

Good food, but we were almost the only folks in the place at 8pm on a Friday night? Does someone know something we don't? ?

Been wanting to try this place and glad we finally did because we'll be coming back soon. Came early on a Friday night (they open at 5pm) and the restaurant didn't start getting packed yet.We got the Greek salad, calamari (sautéed and not breaded and fried like most places), seafood Fra Diavolo (we got one spicy and one not spicy and both were delicious with plenty of seafood), veal marsala and veal parmesan. Everyone loved their entrées. Everything was cooked to perfection and not too salty. Our server was very nice and attentive which always makes the dining experience that much more enjoyable!

I visited Porcini's on my vacation in Boston with my boyfriend. The service was fantastic, even with a waitress in training. Everyone was lovely and friendly the moment we stepped through the door. We got our menus, drinks, and appetizer fast and the food was AMAZING. We got the brussel sprouts appetizer with apricot and pancetta bits, my boyfriend got the chicken parmesan entree, and I got the stuffed ravioli with mushrooms special. I highly recommend this restaurant! It's definitely worth a visit.

Loved the experience here! Highly recommend Porcini's. The fireplace was a great touch!

The storefront is a bit unassuming so if you are driving you need to keep your eyes open to not miss it. We ordered two of the burgundy beef to go.

Walked in on a cold and rainy Halloween evening and was greeted and walked to be sat, passing a warm and inviting fire place. Megan, my server was knowledgeable, accommodating, pleasant , and offered fast service. Went in for a quick dinner before a movie. The food was hot, fresh, and oh so delicious. The patrons were friendly and so was the entire staff and chef, who took the time to greet my friends and I and thank us for dining. I will definitely return the next time I visit Boston.

Fantastic food! 5 star service.

We ate alone in the dining room as the a/c was on the fritz. I had the seafood fra diavolo. It was excellent! My wife had scallop risotto. Also delicious!
