I stopped by this store one day this week since I happened to be in the area. Upon entering I was…read moreimmediately greeted by one of the owners, who was very welcoming and said to ask him if I had any questions. As the name implies, the store's speciality is olive oil, and you can sample a wide variety of oils and vinegars. If that's not your forte, don't worry because the store has plenty more to offer. I spent a long time just browsing the store because it's beautifully arranged. Even though it's fairly small, they make good use of the space. You can get locally made ice cream and honey, as well as kitchenware imported from all over the world. I found a very cute Christmas gift for my mom. There also sell cheeses, spices, teas, hot sauces - a lot more than I can list. Easily accessible whether you're driving or using public transit. There's street parking in many places along Beacon Street and the shop is right next to the Summit Avenue stop on the C branch of the Green Line.

Easiest 5 stars ive ever given. We were here for a raclette and fondue class that was after hours,…read moreso we were able to shop with no one else in the store!! I loved the cheese. Staff was so kind and answered all of our questions. I left with many many things of cheese! We tried the cookies and chocolates, some premade goods, some shelf-stable things, and of course, cheese. My one complaint was that they did not heat up raclette for us, rather gave us raclette cheese at room temperature. I think it wouldn't have been too much to ask for it to be cooked, since they were able to do that with the fondue. I wish there was a way to do the class without the wine pairing and save a few dollars... I would sign up much more often!!

They're hot peppers/banana peppers. True hots are the red hot relish spread/hoagie spread - It'd be fantastic if the sandwiches came with Scala Bread or had an option to. I love the sesame seeded bread I ordered the Italian, and again, the meat & cheese were fantastic. They were sliced thin, and full of flavorful. Drawbacks to the sandwich is that the lettuce was spilling out from the back, and the pickles were a bit thick and perhaps had a pungent taste. Maybe the solution is to slice the pickles thinner and have a more savory brine. Regardless, tasty and you'll get your fill.

There were a lot of options for food and it was hard to decide! They have everything from Shakshuka to their "croffle"! ( croffle- croissant waffle with different toppings) We shared a Nutella and hazelnut croffle, and had omelets. The croffle was incredible- very decadent- and the omelets were very generous with their portions and had toast and home fried potatoes! It's a small spot, but doesn't feel crowded at all overall great experience and would come back!

There's tables mostly for smaller groups, but they easily accommodated us and another large group. I ordered the fig prosciutto panini, which was admittedly smaller than what I was expecting but delicious for breakfast. Coffee saved me from my early morning flight too-- effective and tasty. I think my only knock was that I'd have hoped my particular dish was a bit more generous in portioning, but given a look at the other things my friends ordered, this looks like it's not necessarily the norm across dishes. Great quick bite-- parking is pretty easy on this street in the morning too, so I'd recommend!

Since then, they have become a legendary spot and often referred to as one of, if not THE best Italian restaurant in Boston (even though it's technically Allston. I 100% lean towards the latter. You can NOT beat the quality , taste, portions or prices when considered all together. And the family oriented service is top notch. You do not have to deal with Hanover Street traffic or prices, and you will not get anything as good as this anyway. Carlo's is a MUST visit if you're headed to or from Fenway Park or I. The area for any reason. Can't miss spot.

Parking in the area can be a bit tricky, but it's super convenient to get to via the Green Line, which made it easy overall. For food, everything was delicious: The Romaine & Kale Caesar was good, though I wish it had whole anchovies for a little extra punch. The prosciutto bruschetta was incredible, definitely a standout. The crispy cauliflower was my favorite dish of the night, so flavorful and perfectly cooked. The rigatoni bolognese was solid and comforting. The Chianti-Marsala braised beef short rib was insanely tender and cooked perfectly (just wish there were a few more mushrooms!). Also have to mention the dirty martini was so good. Overall, such a great spot with a fun vibe, amazing service, and really tasty food. I'll definitely be back!

I traveled over an hour to get to this shop, as I had a recipe that required a flour that I could…read moreonly find at this shop. The price online was $6.50, but the gentleman at the counter charged me $8.95. When I asked about the discrepancy he said that online price was wrong. I travelled all that way so I paid the price that he gave me. I went to the website after I left to double-check, and I am still able to purchase it online for $6.50, so I don't think he was being honest. There was none of the flour that I was requesting up front, so he went to the back to get it. The bag he gave me is unlabeled, so now I am not even sure if I got the correct product, since I can't trust him. I was so happy to support a local business, but feel very taken advantage of. I can't speak to the quality of the products, they may be very good, but I can tell you that being lied to, does not feel great and does not make me want to come back to this shop.

It has a very cozy and unique feel, with a casual yet romantic atmosphere. The menu is set up to mix and match any pasta type and sauce - we ordered the penne pesto rosa (my favorite), caprese, and the fettuccine alfredo. The prices went up a couple dollars since our last visit but it's still affordable and big portions! It can get packed on a weekend night and seating can be a little squishy. They offer complimentary bread and butter upon arriving. Perfect for a casual and intimate date night, dinner with friends, or any occasion! Tiramisu dessert is tasty and the vegetarian weekday special pesto timballo (with eggplant) is amazing.
