Mamma Maria
The sophisticated Tuscan fare served at Mamma Maria matches that at other lauded North End eateries, but what makes this restaurant noteworthy is its private dining rooms. Although a meal anywhere in this restored 19th-century town house feels special, book Piccolo, the smallest of the private spaces, for a festive occasion. The room, dominated by a window overlooking historic North Square and the Paul Revere House, can seat six people but is especially popular for dining à deux. Flickering candlelight, heavy draperies and white-glove service combined with the view transport couples to another, more refined era. The restaurant does not charge for a reservation in the room and Piccolo books quickly, so plan ahead.
