Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in West End

I always love symposium Wednesdays! Amazing service, food, and wine! Maria is the best :)

Superb food. The warm semolina cakes were special. The casarecce was delicious as well and the pistachio gelato (pardon my sweet tooth) was excellent! Great hospitality, the server was super helpful and knowledgeable. Giulia also accommodated my request for vegetarian food by providing us with an off-the-menu appetizer and main course option, even though their menu had vegetarian options. The quality of everything we had was top-notch. The food was paced well. We noticed that as we were there at 8:45 PM, absolutely famished! Totally worth another visit!

1st time dining here and at the suggestion of a friend had tge parmigiana alla vodka...has spice but was the most tender perfectly cooked chicken parm I've ever had. Everything from appetizer to dessert to wine selections was fantastic. Highly recommend.

Visited Libertine for the first time with family that flew in from out of Town. There are a lot of great restaurants that I usually visit when I can in the North End and I am adding this one to the list. It will become a go to favorite I am certain once I visit again and get the same level experience. The food is fantastic and the 4 people that were with me agreed and each had their own different dishes. Appetizers were awesome. We had Meatballs/Calamari/Barratta Salad. Staff accommodated some severe allergies and did an outstanding job with Gluten Free dining. Everything but the Ravioli is Gluten Free. They also accommodated several substitutions like Mash Potato for Rizzotto... Wine selection was great by the glass. Service was attentive. We did not need to ask for anything at all. This was an early reservation prior to the Bruins game and reservations were a must suggestion if you can swing it. They also have a bar which is pretty nice as well.

Fantastic, as always! We went for something a little different - the crab cakes and the uovo Benedictine, and both were great, but the real stars were the cocktails. Absolutely stellar espresso martini and “direct flight to Rome” a perfectly balanced espresso & amaro cocktail that I fell in love with. We’ll certainly be back (again and again!)
