Review & FAQ:

There is something almost theatrical about Nico. Run by famed chef Salvatore Firicano, some might go as far as saying that Nico is the North End; the restaurant to end all restaurants in Boston's historic and famed "Italian Restaurant Row." Inside the aromatic enclave of Nico, Chef Salvatore sets about performing painstaking work on a daily basis, with something constantly simmering and spices smashed fresh for each preparation. Local produce takes center stage at this legendary restaurant, and each diner's table becomes a canvas of remarkable flavor. Amongst their offerings of uncompromising Italian cuisine, some must-tries include the crespelle all'aragosta, homemade Italian crepes that are stuffed generously with lobster meat and topped with onions in a lobster pink sauce, and the costata di vitello, a perfectly grilled 20-ounce veal chop that is topped with incredible wild mushrooms in a truffle sauce.
