Always a pleasure to dine at Coppa and this time we brought our nephews who loved every dish. We shared appetizers, pasta, salad and pizzas plus two desserts! Absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Unique preparation and the finest ingredients made for another exceptional meal. The wait staff were busy but upbeat and helpful also!

Many times in North End. First time at Ciao Roma - great food; great service. Based on reviews, I expected great food, and it was fantastic Italian without disappointment. Even beyond expectations, we celebrated our anniversary and the details Ciao Roma paid attention to were exceptional. I'm usually hesitant to give more than 4/5, but no hesitation here on 5/5. Well done! Thank you, and we will return. 🙂

My work family and I came here for our last night in Boston! And what a great experience we had! From the time we arrived and walked into the awesome ambiance to our server Edward (who provided great service with a smile) to the waitresses that brought out our decadent and delicious food! Like EVERYTHING was so tasty! The drinks were not only beautiful, but super delish! Thank you for the experience! We will be back!
