Peach galette
Sharon W.

Sulmona is exceptionally hospitable! First time I called, I asked for a table of 8 and then I needed to update my reservation a few times as our party grew to 16 during a busy graduation season. The inside of the restaurant is gorgeous but we actually like outdoor dining. Their portable fireplaces in the outdoor area kept us warm and gave everyone a beautiful glow that makes everyone look younger and beautiful. We enjoyed our food! Our end of the table had fungi pizza (tasty, thin crust), arancini balls, and linguine alle vongole (fresh, light, and flavorful). Best of all the menu and kitchen are nut-free except for a few dessert items with precautions to limit cross contact. Thank you for a lovely and memorable evening. Our host Michael was an angel and joined in on the fun with us. Best evening ever. Well done and thank you.

I always enjoy coming here after the Cambridge 5k's for a delicious brunch! They have always been able to seat our large parties immediately as they open the restaurant, which I'm super grateful for. They have a great selection of classic breakfast dishes and drinks, and the servers are often prompt with service and ordering. I enjoy their large and filling portion sizes, always having some food to save for later! I surprisingly loved their pizza selection, each made perfectly with a deliciously crispy crust. Their porchetta hash is incredible and small but mighty! We keep finding ourselves returning here for brunch as it's one of the easiest places to get to from Central that's open early!

Friday afternoon was lightly populated. Started with a cappuccino, which came quickly. Cappuccino was nice on a winter day, hot with good foam proportion. The setting is rustic/industrial, with nice leather and wooden seats and furnishings. Edison bulbs hand from the sealing next to a cute red vespa suspended in the air. We ordered a margarita and fig + prosciutto pizette and a cubano with skinny fries. You can see the large open oven from across the room with the flames flickering and herb bundles dangling from the ceiling. Inspected the bathrooms, for which they have multiple single washrooms for additional privacy. Clean, with white tile and motion sensor sink + toilet. Pizza was next level. Dough was cooked perfectly. Flavors of both pizzettes really complemented each other. Hints of garlic, good cheese proportion, not greasy. The cubano was good but could use something to give it more flavor "pop". Bread was toasted perfectly. Fries were amazing, thin cut with appropriate amount of salt, not too crispy not too soft. Service was great. Would definitely come again

Black truffle burrata

My girlfriend and a few friends and I made a reservation last week for Sulmona, and it was nice! I wasn't the most impressed with the service for the most part. While my girlfriend and I arrived early and were seated promptly while we waited for our friends, it was a bit chilly and we were right next to the window. We asked for the window to please be closed, to which they weren't able to. They also weren't able to move us despite the multiple open tables around us. While we were a bit cold throughout the night, the food (and the rest of the night) really made up for it. We started with the truffle burrata, which was delicious however the portion could have been a bit bigger for four people. We got an array of dishes including pastas, wild boar ragu, chicken parm, and porchetta. We were all really impressed, mostly so with the wild boar ragu- a great option! Our waiter really made sure the service was improved throughout the night. He verified allergies/restrictions at our table and even brought the chain from my friend's bag outside that had fallen off inside the restaurant. Overall a solid option for Italian food in Cambridge!

The restaurant wasn't busy, and there's plenty of space around 5pm. It's spacious and conveniently located near Kendall. It's especially lovely during the summer. The service was good, and I really enjoyed the cacio e pepe bucatini pasta with cheese and a truffle topping. The portion size was perfect, and the noodles were thick, creamy, and cheesy--absolutely delicious! The pizza was great, though the skewers were just okay. Overall, a great spot with a lot to offer!

It's a pretty big space--lots of seating! We came in for brunch and there were plenty of tables. Service was fast and friendly. I shared the tiramisu French toast and smoked salmon eggs benedict with a friend. Both were good, although the French toast was maybe on the drier side. My husband got the porchetta hash, which was tasty but a bit rich--he wasn't able to finish it. My siblings split the mascarpone French toast with a ham omelette. Everything was pretty standard brunch fare, and I can't recall a standout, but the portions were decent. I think their strength is probably dinner, which I haven't tried yet.

Spaghetti
Tiffany L.

Wow, I was pleasantly surprised by what a good lunch I had here! If I could find anything to nitpick, it would just be that the server didn't check in on us as frequently as I would have wanted them to. It took us a while to order and a while to pay the check, because we couldn't find someone to help. First off, Sulmona was decorated for the holidays and it looked so nice indoors. I loved the natural lighting and how open it was. I ordered the spaghetti and a side house salad. The spaghetti portion was small, but the side house salad was huge! Made me wonder how big the actual entree size is. The spaghetti was cooked perfectly al dente (how I like it). And the house salad was delicious as well! Would def recommend this combo for lunch / I would love to come back for dinner next time!

Nutella iced coffee w/o vodka

We went on a Tuesday morning as soon as the restaurant opened, and were immediately greeted with great service and a warm atmosphere. Our server was so kind, although I'm failing to remember his name. The food and drinks were 10/10 delicious, and we will definitely be sure to return. Also, we heard that the same owners are in charge of Amelia's down the street, so we might have to go there too!

prosciutto, cheese, bread
Ashika G.

We went here for a team outing and for such a fancy restaurant with steep prices in a prime part of Cambridge, I was really disappointed by the service and honestly the food. I was craving some italian and sadly this place did not meet the standard. Now the part I would come back for are the appetizers. There was a meat and cheese platter and the fritto misti that we really enjoyed (it even included fried sardines that were a hit!). We ordered the truffle burrata which tasted nothing like truffle, it felt like one tsp of truffle oil was drizzled on top, but a let down nonetheless. The portion size to the price was not worth it in my opinion. There was probably a half serving of linguine in my clam linguine, with only 6 clams. The lobster ravioli's lobster portion was also severely overcooked, it barely came off the shell! The bread served with the prosciutto was hard as a rock! We also ordered a bottle of wine, which they first forgot to bring and gave us a complimentary glass (nice of them), and then brought back a bottle of warm wine. We had to ask twice for a glass of ice to try and cool it down. There were several times we had to repeatedly ask the waitress for simple things such as silverware or more water that took longer than we anticipated. We expected more from this location and would hesitate to come back for even the vibe!

Arancini Dinner and pasta

Amazingly fresh draft beer. Great food, great place right opposite the Ragon Institute.

Came here for brunch on a weekend. Wasn't busy and there's plenty of room. Service was good. Food was tasty, but didn't blow me away. They have a broad menu so maybe I'll return to try something else in the future. The scene and ambiance is well suited for a group of friends to catch up so invite me next time you head there.

New place in Cambridge. Service and food was good. People were very nice. A little loud but I would recommend this place to a friend.

How is parking here?

There is metered parking.

Can you BYOB?

No I'm sorry.

What is the best cocktail?

All of them - just kidding. The Aqueduct was delish but I am more of a wine person and the Italian list is pretty good!

Made 1:00 pm lunch reservations with the girls. Our server, Rayna, was attentive but also gave us…read moreplenty of time gabbing as cousins were catching up; she also gave suggestions based on some of our questions. She was great! We all enjoyed cocktails--I had the Whisper Eden, which by the description, seems like an odd combo, but it was delicious and beautiful. My friend's Torino (espresso) martini was adorably garnished with cocoa nibs AND glitter. We opted for the specials menu, which were all sandwiches. The table ordered the eggplant parm, turkey pesto, and I had the mortadella & pistachio pesto with burrata. Many added a side salad--I had the crispy fries. Food was plentiful and tasty. The interior of Posto is modern but charming, and the bar area has a nice vibe, though sparsely populated at lunchtime. The restrooms are also pristine. I'd suggest trying the pizza as well because several pies (delivered to other patrons) looked amazing!

Hmm, this is difficult. I visited Posto twice in one week…read moreand the first time visiting, I loved it! Unfortunately the second time I visited, it was incredibly disappointing. My guess is, the first visit was shortly after lunch time so it wasn't all that busy so they had time to make the dishes good. The second visit was very busy on a Friday night & our server was nowhere to be found most of the meal. Food was not the same. Ordered calamari both times and the most recent visit, the calamari was overcooked, bland, and not good. As for the rest of the dishes we ordered, they were kind of cold already & not very flavorful. Just okay. Another thing I'd like to note is, we were sat in a separate room (with other ppl) but it was so hot & muggy in there. Wished there was some air conditioning or something. So, I'm not really sure how I feel about Posto because both experiences I had were polar opposites of each other.

I'm from the east coast but now live out west, so I'm always craving truly good Italian food. This place was the real deal! The prosciutto de Parma, the bucatini and the pistachio gelato were all fantastic! You must get all 3! :) I actually left genuinely sad because I knew I wouldn't be able to come back again during the rest of my trip! Reservations are very booked up, and you can only get them two weeks in advance. I honestly don't even want to eat anywhere else on this trip... it was that good! And the ambiance and staff were so delightful too! Reservations only open two weeks in advance so grab one while you can!

However, the main dishes such as the skirt steak underwhelmed both in terms of presentation and taste. Dessert menu was creative but bordering on cloyingly sweet for items we tried. Service and ambiance were adequate but could use more polish and attention to detail. For example, a server replaced a napkin but placed it partially on top of a half eaten dish soiling the bottom of the napkin. Boston has plenty of other choices that we would want to try before repeating Giulia. Overall, B+ and the waitlist hype is a tad overrated.
