    We got the Bruschetta and Arancini for apps and they were both delicious. For my meal, I got the Casarecce Sausage, Broccoli Rapi and that was also delicious! They make a great expresso martini and tiramisu. We sat at the bar first because we got their early and easily transitioned to a table at the window which was lovely. Definitely will go back next time we are in the North End!

    We celebrated our 45th Wedding Anniversary this weekend and went both evenings, Friday and Saturday, to Papparre. The food here is incredible and you should make a reservation if you want to get in without waiting. Our servers were very nice and Olivia remembered my particular cocktail when I said I’ll have the same drink I had yesterday. She was very friendly and made sure we had everything to our liking. Whenever we go back we want to try all the items on the menu since everything we had so far has been amazing. They also have a great wine selection. To top off the night we were comped a tiramisu and 2 limoncello shots as an anniversary celebration. We will be back!! I highly recommend this restaurant.

    We arrived early on a rainy Monday evening for dinner to find the restaurant unusually quiet. It was the perfect opportunity to have a meal with the family without the normal hustle and bustle one expects from the North End! The food was fabulous and the service was top notch. I'll go back in a second!

    Review affected by noise level of adjacent diners. Not the restaurant’s fault.
