Bencotto

Awesome place! Food was incredible and the service was just as great! Our server Jenn was not only knowledgeable about the menu, but recommended other things that narrowed down our selection. She was also very attentive and friendly. My girlfriend and I happened to stumble upon this place but I would recommend it to anyone. Great, authentic Italian food and a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The lobster raviolis are out of this soiled as a suggestion.

Perfect North End experience. They squeezed us in on a Friday evening with no reservation, wonderful friendly service. Superb menu, classic high quality fresh pasta and some of the best pizza 🍕 I’ve ever tasted. Great selection of good wines too. Try the bruschetta with balsamic and fresh mozzarella - heaven

Walked by and the wife saw pumpkin ravioli and it was over. We were greeted and sat right away, excellent service. They have a very nice wine selection as well as beer offerings. The food was excellent albeit a bit pricey from what I'm used to but may be standard for the area. The dining room is small and intimate but not crowded. Only reason I put 4 stars for service is we waited a bit for drinks when it wasn't that busy but I feel like I'm nitpicking here. Go try this place out.

We are calamari aficionado and this is hands down the best we’ve had. US, coast to coast. Even the calamari we had 2 hours later down the street didn’t compare. The atmosphere with the open window walls and the chill, polite staff was an awesome way to spend a perfect evening in Northend. We were there for drinks and apps, but the dinner at the table next to us looked great.

We stopped by after a day of shopping at Faneuil Hall Marketplace. The wait at the time we went was only about ten minutes for them to set up a table. Our meal consisted of Chicken Penne Broccoli with cream, Bencotto Panino, Misto Di Pesce, Bruschetta and Pumpkin Ravioli. The food was flavorful. I would advise you triple check if you have an allergy before ordering the ravioli since it’s not made in house. Even after we advised there was a tree nut allergy at the table we were told the ravioli was safe. Then we were told they use amaretti cookies in pumpkin ravioli AFTER the food was delivered and the person almost ate it. This could have been prevented if the waiter let us know before we ordered as this could have been a very bad situation.

This place is small and usually really crowded so I’ve never tried it but I went yesterday for an early lunch and it was great! The Paul Revere pizza was so good and I especially recommend the pumpkin ravioli! The sauce they make it in is SO good, I want to go back just for this dish! My mom and aunt also really enjoyed their pistachio martinis!

We came on nice summer day when all the folding window-walls were open. It was very comfortable place to be. The restaurant was busy, but fortunately did not have long lines like some others in the area. The Saint Agrippina pizza was very good, and the kids enjoyed the cheese pizza and penne with meatball from the kids menu. The tables are pretty crowded together, but the staff seems to be able to move smoothly through the crowd to serve everyone. Our servers was pleasant and efficient.
