    Great atmosphere, great food and great service. I found this little hole in the wall while walking through the brick streets of Boston’s Little Italy. I know there are many wonderful restaurants to choose from in this historic section of Boston but Eunos was the choice for me. I like small establishments with a romantic rustic feel and this place was it. I made a reservation through Open Table and confirmed it the day of after they opened for service. The manager was very friendly when we showed up an hour early to see about getting in early. He apologized saying they wouldn’t have our table ready until our reservation time. He then directed us down the street to an establishment that had a bar where we could get a drink while we waited. We came back on our 8pm time and we’re seated immediately at a table for two at the front windows. To bad it was only 30 degrees outside because these windows open when the temperatures allow. We were greeted immediately by Richard a 17year veteran server at this restaurant. He really made the night. He went through a series of specials the chef was offering for the evening. We chose a bottle of wine and selected the meatball app and the buffalo mozzarella app. The two meatballs were most and flavorful with a tangy slightly spicy red sauce and fresh basil. The buffalo mozzarella app had chunks of mozzarella ripe tomato prosciutto and basil with dressed with balsamic based dressing. I loved this salad so fresh and flavorful. Richard checked back with us to see if we were ready to order our entrees. We chose the the eggplant rigatoni and another of the evenings specials a rooster shaped pasta dressed with pesto and had large shrimp and jumbo sea scallops. It was a little wait for our food but Richard brought more bread out to us and made sure we had everything we needed while waiting for our entrees. Wow, well worth the wait because the entrees were delicious. The shrimp and scallops were perfectly cooked with the scallops seared on the outside while tender on the inside. Wish we would have had room for dessert because I really wanted to try their tiramisu. Next time and hope to have Richard as our server once again.

    We had a lovely dinner in this charming establishment. There are so many options in the north end but we were happy we went here. The wine was generously poured and the staff was quick and kind. Would've loved to see the basement but didn't mind our seats in the ground floor. We ordered the grilled artichoke, mushroom gnocchi (heavy on the gorgonzola), bolognese (perfect comfort food on a rainy day), and the ceasar (yay for using anchovies!) The house limoncello was delicious and a nice touch to the end of our dinner!

    Kevin was our waiter and did a great job. We went in a group of 5, split 3 appetizers, and then all got entrees. The portions are great for the price and food was yummy. Would have liked to try dessert if we hadn't eaten so much. We were on the main level, there is also outdoor seating and a bottom floor that I did not go to. Staff was friendly and attentive.

    Definitely my new favorite Italian restaurant. My wife and I were there with a couple visiting from India. The food was delicious and our server, Kevin, could not have been nicer. He was VERY helpful in accommodating their vegetarian needs and really went out of the way to make us feel welcome. I was undecided between 2 choices so Kevin brought a bowl of each! It was a perfect evening and helped send our Indian friends home the next day with fond memories of Boston.

    We were visiting from out of town for my son’s birthday my aunt who lives here in Boston from Wisconsin. We’re Sicilian American - very picky about our authentic Italian / Sicilian food. How it’s prepared-always looking for authentic- al dente - chewy pasta. It was delicious! The restaurant is quaint - very very cute. Exposed kitchen and exposed outside - loved this feel and appearance. The service was phenomenal. We had 3 appetizers (calamari- buffalo mozzarella and octopus- all delicious - for entrees we ordered their specials - lobster ravioli and shrimp scampi - the olive oil was Devine - ripe and green. The bread that was served was fantastic. A classic Italian and one more of cibata style. Pasta was authentic and Al dente. Service- they are very small so we felt a tad rushed at first but then Roberto could tell we really were dining for an occasion- a birthday and visiting family eased up and allowed us to enjoy our food unrushed but - we did understand the urgency - it’s small and they need to keep things moving to accollate their many desired guests.

    Very tasty. Pretty interior. Wine is reasonably priced. Small menu but that means they know how to cook each dish.

    Can’t say enough great things about this restaurant. Everything was delicious. Manager and owner treated us like family. By far the best meatballs I’ve ever eaten. I cannot wait to go back. Can I give it 6 stars?

    I chose to propose here- the staff was excellent and accommodating, did everything in their power to make the night as perfect as possible, with the care, attention, and quality you'd expect from a place double the price. The food was also beyond excellent- my personal favorite was the mushroom gnocchi, but my (now) fiancée loved the swordfish special as well. Wonderful restaurant, we'll be revisiting in the future for sure =)

    Euno is the best decision we made to celebrate our 6th anniversary. after already feeling incredible because of the service received thus far (and the amazing wine our server selected), the owner made sure to ask us how our evening was going. after mentioning it was our anniversary, the treatment took a turn towards better: extra special and attentive to detail. it was a beautiful night. the food was deliciously unforgettable, the service incredible, the atmosphere perfect, and the interior reflected the aforementioned. every 5 star review you see? believe them. i’m glad i did.

    Absolutely the best restaurant, their service was wonderful everyone was extremely nice and helpful. The food was delicious and perfect, it’s not expensive for the quality and authenticity you are getting. Me and my wife will be back when we visit Boston again.

    One of my best dining experiences in the North end, ever! The menu provides just enough choice in the specials provide something abov e and beyond. Kevin and the staff were incredibly attentive. Meals at our table included lobster ravioli, the sirloin, and two different pasta dishes. The fried calamari appetizer was light and fresh, devoured it quickly. The evening was perfect and I look forward to going back the next time with my daughter who lives in the north end

    Be sure to get reservations. Food and atmosphere are perfect for a fantastic dinner on the town. Very warm and inviting dining room. Portions are large so bring your appetite!

  • 5/5 Joshwa M. 5 months ago on Google
    The nicest staff and management anyone could ever ask for. I visit Boston at least twice a month for work - and take my coworkers and/or clients to dinner in the North End. After visiting Ristorante Euno this evening, I'll never go anywhere else! Excellent suggestions, generous portions, and superior conversations with staff and guests. The atmosphere is unmatched in the North End. Located just past Neptune, Ristorante Euno is a bit of a hidden gem. Do yourself a favor and visit. Not only was the food and service excellent, but pricing is fair and there is plenty to do nearby. Order all three courses, ask about the specials (the Pork special was tremendous tonight), and drink the wine. You won't regret it!

    So amazing! Always come here and bring my family here when visiting. Food is ALWAYS fresh and delicious. Service is absolutely amazing. Got a couple of free limoncellos for my birthday, and they even put a candle in my cheesecake! Highly recommend for any occasion, you will not be disappointed. Shout out to our server Stefano, took great care of us.

    I could never explain the dining experience we just had as a family. We are on a vacation from Miami and came across this place and there will never be enough words. This is hands down one of the greatest restaurants I have ever been to. Richard is an absolute gem, a man that puts his entire heart into this place and it shows. Him and his staff Jovan and Kevin treated us like family. The food was delectable. Every single plate. The ambiance, people, and food really couldn’t have been better. I will be returning to Boston just for this place. If you are ever visiting or in the area, do not leave without eating here. You won’t regret it.

    My wife and I went here for our 3rd Anniversary. We had a wonderful time, and would recommend this to anyone. The food was great and the service was better. Kevin was wonderful with overall attentiveness, recommendations, and going the extra mile to ensure we had a terrific time. We ordered the stuffed artichokes and grilled calamari for appetizers, and the truffle gnocchi and lobster ravioli special for main course. The appetizers were very good, (especially the artichokes), but the main courses were outstanding, with generous portion size for the quality.

  • 5/5 Sold Sisters S. 4 months ago on Google
    Great meal and service last night...Kevin, our server, was adorable and attentive. Great recommendations and atmosphere was perfect. Be sure to make a reservation on weekends...not sure about other times but we watched a lot of disappointed diners have to be turned away because they had not planned in advance. Highly recommend. Wish I had taken the picture of the creme brulee when it was on fire when it was served.

  • 5/5 JoAnna V. 1 year ago on Google
    Warm, welcoming, and friendly environment, like stepping into your grandmother's home. The staff were top-notch and the food and wine list, absolutely to die for. I highly recommend stopping by when you're in Boston!

  • 5/5 Theresa M. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a 2-hour wait for dinner at a restaurant close by, so we stopped by Euno to see if we could have drinks and a couple apps to kill some time. They had a small table by the bar free for about an hour before the next reservation and allowed our party of 3 to use it until then. The truffle fries were great and the Brussel sprouts might have been the best I've ever tasted. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Emil I. 1 year ago on Google
    Unforgettable experience! Delicious food. We were a party of three. Ordered three different meals - everything was perfectly cooked and delicious. Impeccable and friendly service. Good selection of Italian wines. Nice ambiance. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Erin Shanti D. 1 year ago on Google
    We met two friends for dinner and happened to get a table outside on the street at Euno. We were totally blown away by how delicious everything that came out of the kitchen was. Absolutely incredible food across the board! This place is a cut above the other restaurants Italian restaurants we have tried in the area. Our waiter was warm, funny, and attentive. The entire staff was down to earth, welcoming, and treated our service dogs with the same warm regard they provided us.

  • 5/5 Minehwa C. 4 years ago on Google
    There are so many Italian Restaurants in North End but this one really stood out. The food is divine. The waiter recommended the perfect wine to pair with our food.

  • 5/5 Melissa S. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow what can I say about this restaurant! Amazing food and wine. They were very accommodating when we had a guest unexpectedly join us. Our server Richard was so kind. They had meatballs on the menu for a special and it was the best meatball I have ever had in my life. The entree’s were delectable. 10/10 will be coming back here and will highly recommend this restaurant to others.

  • 5/5 Andrew P. 1 year ago on Google
    A simply superlative experience from the first moment to the last. Exceptional, friendly service, mouthwatering menu options - be sure to ask about the specials - and a wonderful wine list. all this in a beautiful, historic building in the North End, with a warm, enveloping ambience. We were treated like family. The very best Italian restaurant I've ever had the privilege to dine at. Outstanding on every level, if you want the authentic Boston Italian dining experience, this is the place. Thank you for a truly memorable night, Euno, we will be back. Keep up the great work!

    Delicious food, creative and interesting menu. Impeccable service with every staff member. Best meal and overall experience we’ve had in a long time! Would 10/10 recommend!

  • 4/5 Юлия �. 1 year ago on Google
    We visited this place multiple times already, and really wanted that to be our family restaurant, the one we go to celebrate important things happening to our family. The place is cozy, the menu is amazing and I can not even describe the crew working there, they make you feel special. If you are lucky to get their scallops from their specials- take it! Their scallops are beyond the expectations, very soft, melting in your mouth and at the same time have unique not fishy flavour. Highly recommended. Of course their pasta is also worth ordering. We are trying to explore the entire menu, but every time are distracted by their specials. It is delicious!!!We just recently noticed that the kitchen is getting less phenomenal. (I hope that was just one time only thing). We ordered the chopped pork from their specials and specifically asked for medium temp. It was over cooked. It was tough and dry, because of my deep love to that place I didn’t say anything to our amazing waiter Richard. 4 stars just because of the pork experience, either than that I would give it 10 stars! For the food, music, atmosphere and their amazing crew.з

    The intimate feeling of the restaurant and the great service is the reason to go here. The past were good, but really wish we had been warned that a single one pasta feeds 3 since we each ordered a pasta and were so uncomfortably full partway through the meal. We took home 2/3 of our food.

  • 4/5 Claire C. 2 years ago on Google
    Decent food. Good service. Tight space which I didn’t expect from the pictures. We were seated right next to the entrance and it was so cold everytime someone walked in 🥶… not to mention people bumping into us while we are eating as they walked in…😞

  • 5/5 Bailey C. 2 years ago on Google
    Wanted to try a new (to me) North End spot and so glad I did. Beautiful, cozy space. Gnocchi was one of best dishes I've had in a while. Split Ceasar salad to start and calamari - breading was perfect not too thick. Really great service too. Will definitely be coming back.

  • 5/5 Mishka C. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is great. The food is excellent, best pasta I have ever had. The portions are generous and delicious. The service is excellent and it felt like a family atmosphere. This is our new go to Italian restaurant in the North End.

  • 4/5 Mark D. 2 years ago on Google
    Stop by with my family last weekend ,terrific customer service interesting dishes and quality food. Great time!!!

  • 5/5 Star City R. 2 years ago on Google
    Came to the North End looking for some good food and was not disappointed by the meal we had. Our waiter was incredibly nice and helpful, the only downside of the meal is that since we chose to sit outside to eat it started to lightly sprinkle. The staff quickly moved umbrellas to cover us from the elements, but they can't be faulted for mother nature. I only bring this up to point out that they care about their customers experience. All in all a wonderful meal and experience, I will be back in a few months for another great meal.

  • 5/5 Andrea M. 4 years ago on Google
    What a great find! I mentioned that it was my 4th year anniversary and the service and overall experience was beyond great! We got complementary drinks and pastries. The recommendations were beyond amazing! I definitely recommend the stuffed squid. The ambiance was romantic and Private. Must go place!!!
