I have a love-hate relationship with Heartbreak Hill. It's awesome cause it represents when the…read moreBoston Marathon course starts to get consistently pretty, but it sucks cause it comes at mile 21 when yr leg muscles are battered from all of the downhills and yr glycogen has run out. According to Wikipedia, the nickname "Heartbreak Hill" originated with an event in the 1936 race. On this stretch, defending champion John A. Kelley caught race leader Ellison "Tarzan" Brown, giving Brown a consolatory pat on the shoulder as he passed. His competitive drive apparently stoked by this gesture, Tarzan Brown rallied, pulled away from Kelley, and went on to win--in the words of Boston Globe reporter Jerry Nason, "breaking Kelley's heart."

Brookline is a really nice and fancy and relaxing City to the south west of Boston which is really part of Boston, let's be honest. You'll find lots of suburban niceties here but also some citiness and some cool stuff in terms of food and drinks and just in general I really like it here.

It's been the backdrop for so many of our lives' milestones--we've swapped stories in the salon chairs about incredible birthdays, beautiful Bat Mitzvahs, and countless unforgettable events hosted there. We are absolutely sad to hear that they are closing their doors. The food, the incredible atmosphere, and the wonderful staff will be deeply missed by our entire salon community. We are holding out hope that this is just a "see you later" and that they will reopen in a new location soon. Thank you for the memories!

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.

We ordered gnocchi dish (it's huge) and a caprese instalata. What we really loved was the warm bread that they brought to the table right away with the favorful olive oil to dip. We felt right at home. The salad was amazing, super fresh and arugula was crisp, tomatoes fresh and the drizzle atop the mozarella was perfect. Beautifully presented. My daughter really liked her gnocchi, perfectly cooked, (soft but has a little bite to it!) with amazing red sauce. The interesting thing is she found two random pieces of chicken in her dish but no worries, we just placed them aside. Overall a wonderful experience, we'd come back again for the flavors if we are in this area.
