Really cute cafe worth checking out. We've been twice and once it was empty so we were served quickly but the second time there was a couple other people wouldn't call it busy. The hot chocolate was great as well as the chocolate mousse cake- the cassata though could be better. Service was horrible- others who got there after us were attended to before us, and when we asked for water they gave us attitude. After waiting 10 minutes for water we asked again, and they rolled their eyes and finally gave it to us. Overall I'd say the service is on par with the north end though.
Locals recommended to come here vs. Mike's and I'm glad we did, the pastries and drinks cappuccino & chocolate/ coffee martini were fabulous! Our server was super sweet and attentive! Highly recommend and if you still want to Mike's it's next door. No wait here and plenty of seating!
Tiramisu - Epic. Must have if you dine in. Hot Chocolate was a perfect choice for a cold fall morning. The walls are splattered with historic pictures and fun facts. The cafe is cozy and was very busy, so be prepared to wait for a seat. The items are priced reasonably. They are cash only as is the case many north end establishments
This is probably the best dessert place I've ever visited. The desserts are authentic and very well made, particularly the lobster tail. The atmosphere is social and cozy, it feels like an Italian grandma's kitchen. I come here every time I'm in the north end. I would highly recommend
Really cute cafe with delicious cappuccinos on the cappuccinos they put cocoa powder! Yum. The bakery items are also delicious, I think they get them from next door. And the vibe is super cute with old espresso machines lining the walls. Remember to bring cash!

I’ve only ever come here for dinner or dessert and it’s always great! It’s cash only so make sure you come prepared. It’s a simple, casual place but the drinks are so good, highly recommend the espresso martini and the cheesecake is delicious! Great service! A good choice for dessert after dinner or an after dinner drink when you’re in the north end!
We were looking for coffee and desseet aftervdinner and just happened to stumble upon this place. I am glad we did. The cappuccino and mocha were very good. We ordered a tiramisu as well. I didn't taste any alcohol in it like what you would expect in a traditional tiramisu but I didn't mind. The tiramisu was creamy and lady fingers were properly soaked through. Just be aware this place is cash only.
Nice, cozy, it feels as going back 20 years back which has its own charm! The Martini espresso is spectacular! Also Affogatto coffee. It has several spaces for any type of visit with friends, family. The service was fast. We just came for coffee
The service was a ok. There were limited menus. 2 for 9 people?!? It took a while to be seated as the place was packed. The waiters and waitresses were all very friendly. We had this place recommended by a cousin, but the wait was worth it! Everything was rich, and creamy and delicious. From best to worst in what we had, the order is Napoletane, Tiramisu, Chocolate Mousse Cake, Limoncello Cake, and then the eclair. Everything was amazing, except the Eclair, which was average. The only thing that I would say is bad about this place, is that it accepts cash only. Which is very unfortunate for people who don’t carry cash.
