A true gem among all those rhinestones in the North End, this rustic, but cozy trattoria with stucco walls and beamed ceilings specializes in creative interpretations of Italian classics. The bad news is that there's no coffee or dessert. The good news is that you can work off dinner with a stroll around the neighborhood before stopping someplace on Hanover Street for an espresso and a pastry.

The Scene: With only about a dozen tables, this popular Salem Street restaurant guarantees an intimate atmosphere, especially on weekends, when the place is packed and harried waiters struggle to recite the nightly specials over the noisy crowd. Still, gourmands and well-informed tourists put up with the prohibitive noise levels and cramped seating arrangements in order to enjoy some of the... more

The restaurant serves no dessert or coffee.

Terramia Ristorante offers an Italian cuisine. Expect the average entrée to cost for the most part in the range of $12 to $20, and you should dress casual.

A true gem among all those rhinestones in the North End, this rustic but cozy trattoria with stucco walls and beamed ceilings specializes in creative interpretations of Italian classics. Behind Terramia's pane-windowed storefront on Salem Street is a busy 39-seat trattoria decked out in linens, candlelight and paintings of the Italian countryside. Like the cuisine here, the atmosphere is... more

Nearly everything this little autumnal-colored restaurant kicks out tastes home cooked and authentic. The simple, largely southern Italian cuisine is full of game (look for boar, venison, and quail specials) and rich, fresh pastas tossed with equally fresh ingredients. The risottos come perfectly cooked and powerfully flavored. Dessert and coffee aren't on the menu, though. Lines can get long... more

With the menu's relatively high prices in mind, budget-minded diners should split a starter and skip the wine (a glass of house red or white costs $8).

Hoping for a sweet--or caffeinated--finish? Expect to head down the street to one of the North End's famous bakeries, as Terramia does not serve dessert or coffee.

Tucked away on a quiet street in the North End, the maroon awning and open windows of this restaurant beckon to those with a taste for modern Italian fare. My favorite is their Maine lobster with raddichio fritters. The homemade Abruzzi-style spaghetti and the risotto is also delicious. Restaurant serves beer and wine and prices reasonable.

Cozy space with friendly, knowledgeable servers. Salads were sauced excellently. Halibut special was cooked to perfection. Ravioli was to die for. Will return soon. Highly recommended.

I had never eaten great Italian food until I visited the North End. Since my visit to Boston was brief, I decided on Terramia because of the many good reviews. The restaurant is set away from busy Hanover. It's actually larger than what the facade would imply. The interior is softly lit by candles and the seating is slightly cramped, which didn't represent a problem until people rose. Everyone... more
