Samuel LavoieMay 2, 2016Gnocchi sweet potatoes! Quite large portions so don't be afraid to skip the starters if your not to hungry. Great Italian wine list!
Micaela Rojas EspínolaDecember 19, 2018The carbonara is a must!! Wine list is excellent. Is a place for do all the steps (starter/main/desert) , even though considering the size of dishes. Great service!
Sofia PapastamelosAugust 15, 2016Beautifully creative and fresh, seasonal menu. Kind of a hidden gem tucked into a corner of back bay. Try the chef's specialty: roasted boar with rosemary and fermented grape sauce.
AustinJuly 1, 2017The wine list - OMG. Very, very well done. Great job! Oh, the food is very good as well.
Boston.comAugust 4, 2014The pasta dishes and the wild boar with fermented Concord grapes are wonderful. So are the prices, considering the level of craft here; entrees run $19-$29. Read more
EaterJanuary 12, 2012Perhaps the only Boston restaurant to serve elaborately prepared sunflower buds, Erbaluce is no stranger to the title of the city's "best Italian restaurant." [Eater 38 Member]
Dee AnnisSeptember 9, 2013Pasta w/ meat sauce normally might be easily dismissed, but their homemade pasta with wild boar ragu was delicious! Don't overlook it!
Joyce ElvenFebruary 12, 2011Aroma di Venus. Marjorum magic. Sophisticated and sensuous. Nick brings food history to life at the bar. Erbaluce - best place in Boston to eat intelligently, leave amazingly satisfied. Thanks, Nick.
Amanda EveyOctober 22, 2012Seriously one of the best Italian restaurants in Boston. Panino sandwich on the bar menu is the best comfort food.
PatOctober 27, 2013Marscapone and goat cheese cheesecake, quite possibly the greatest dessert I've ever had.
Sara SigelMay 18, 2013Fresh herbs on the table and very cozy feel! Try the pastas, we got them all and loved each one.
Claire BarrettFebruary 11, 2012Great food served at a relaxed pace, good staff and lovely atmosphere. Rack of wild boar was superb. Loved the belly pork.
👸CindyrellaSeptember 8, 2013Sunflowers are not just edible - they are delicious. Very special preparations using the freshest veggies and herbs.
Anything you order will be a delight. Take advantage of seasonal items. Be sure to ask Nick what special cocktail he is dreaming up! Wonderful restaurant atmosphere!
Gilt CityAugust 5, 2011This is truly Italian food at its best. We love the fresh, seasonal menu and of course, the deep wine list!
Svetlana JavakhyanMay 28, 2012New discovery! Great food, atmosphere...perfect for a dinner for two, but good for girls night out!
Highly recommend the wild boar. Chuck & Joan, the chef/ owners could not be more hospitable! Hidden gem. Splendid creative cooking with wondrous fresh flavours!!
Chris EFebruary 22, 2016Excellent service, pleasant date ambiance. Food below expectations. Wild boar meatballs were overcooked. Cacio e Pepe was tasty but overpriced. At a comparable price point, Sorellina is better.
Chefs FeedAugust 22, 2014Brian Poe, chef of Poe's Kitchen at the Rattlesnake, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Veal short rib. Read more
Alec SternApril 11, 2010Love this: Go to Erbaluce for a great experience - authentic, original, creative and local... Chuck is a genius in the kitchen! Read more
