Tuscan Kitchen - Boston

My husband and I met his Uncle here for Dinner. The location is very convenient and looks beautiful! I like that there is an "outdoor" version and then you walk up the stairs to their bar/lounge or restaurant area. The atmosphere was very romantic with floor to ceiling windows. We sat in a circular booth. It was comfy, but veryyy tight (as I am a plus size person). We ordered our drinks (I had the Mai Tai), and then we ordered the Polpettoni, Calamari Fritti, and Burrata. All three were absolutely delicious! The calamari came as either actual fried mini octopus, or the rings (which is what I prefer). My husband who normally doesn't eat burrata loved it here.We also split a Caesar salad which was absolutely delicious and had lotsss of parmesan cheese, yum! It even came with crunchy focaccia bread!Our waiter was very helpful and accommodating. We ordered a bottle of wine, the Chianti Classico RSV. Normally I am not a major wine fan, and this was a dry red (which made me nervous) but it was actually very good!!!For Dinner, I ordered the Bolognese pasta which was absolutely DIVINE. So delicious. My husband ordered the Salmone and his Uncle ordered the tableside truffle tagliatelle (which was super cool to see!!!) A chef came to our table, lit the parmesan cheese wheel on fire, melted the cheese for the pasta, and then prepared the pasta right in front of us! As for dessert, we had the pistachio gelato, the chocolate cake, and the chocolate almond cake. All sooo heavenly! We also appreciated that we were not rushed and we were able to enjoy our meals, catch up with one another, and enjoy!

The dinner we just enjoyed at the Tuscan Kitchen at the Seaport was the best dinner we have had in Boston in a very long time. No exaggeration. This is a beautiful restaurant able to serve many people comfortably at one time, with the addition of private rooms for private affairs. We entered on street level where there is a little bar and small dining room just off the sidewalk. Here is also an elevator (for easy access) and a grand stairway to bring patrons to the second floor main dining room. The menu is spectacular as is the food and wine list. Service is immediately attentive and tremendous. I had the Buratta della Casa to start and the most fantastic Pan Seared Scallops served over Safron Risotto with fresh Lobster meat. Amazing. The winelist is great with some of the finest Italian wines, especially the Falinghina, which we enjoyed.This place is the best!

Great ambiance great food and great staff! Would highly recommend for a date night!! We ordered the salmon and the asparagus and sweet potatoes. Delicious!!

Came here twice now. The vibes are great and different depending on where they seat you. They have a pretty strong menu with lots of good options. First time I came here it was just for drinks and some apps. The crudo options are good. They also sat us somewhere cozy upon request. Second time I got the short rib plate which was huggeeee. It was delicious, only small complaint is the meat was a bit dry, but the entire plate had a lot of gravy to dip it in. Reason for dropping a star is the service. Service is huge for me and our waiter just wasn't attentive. I even made eye contact and she told me she'd be right there and didn't show until 10 minutes later. Also when trying to pay it took some time to get the check and then again 10 minutes went by and I had to flag another waiter down to get the bill paid. I'm sure I'll show up again though and do recommend.

Seaport is the land of lowered expectations. It's what happens when you make a neighborhood with more space for lobbies than people. In this kind of atmosphere, a pretty medium place like Tuscan Kitchen becomes a downright oasis. I've been here a couple times and both times the staff was super nice to us, even though (both times) we kept them open past closing. They were never pushy about anything, though, just kind of let us hang out.The atmosphere is actually super classy, though the place is cavernous, so cozy, it ain't. The food is...pricey. But by seaport standards, it's just another meal. They definitely put in the work, though, and when you're surrounded by places like Empire and Committee, the epicenter of the land of high cost, low return, it's a treat. Their fried calamari was pretty good, a small portion, but not too overcooked or oily. Their burrata was a bit small for the price, but not short on taste.I recommend the place, if for nothing else than to be treated like a human being. Yes, this is seaport and the bar is that low.

Best dinner I have had in the Seaport! Had the pizzette with figs, prosciutto, scallions and burrata and it was absolutely amazing! Also had the scallops with saffron risotto and lobster and it was just a melody of flavors! Diego, my waiter was attentive and helpful when I couldn't decide what to get! Will absolutely eat her again!

Buon Giornio Italia!That is how I felt after eating at the Tuscan Kitchen. We had just finished swearing in our Father in Law as a new US Citizen and we wanted to celebrate the occasion.It was very cold outside and trying to find a good place to eat, until we smelled an amazing bacon, garlic and other combinations of aromas coming out of the Tuscan Kitchen, so we jumped in!We need to start with the drinks, which as you can see from the picture, were beautifully served with great combinations, colors and decor. We loved the Aperol Spritz with Orange Juice, which the bartender made for my father in law, who loves a screwdriver, but wanted to taste a twist to it and he loved it. My wife's Sangria was great as well and with plenty of wine, which you can see in the color. We have been at other places, where the mix is more juice than wine, so she was happy that hers was blended the right way. Having said all of this, my main dish, the pasta bolognese was absolutely amazing and out of this world. I had this plate in Siena, Italy, which is at the center of the Tuscany region. That restaurant had help the spot for the top bolognese I have had, but this one topped that one and one that I will never forget. The picture just shows the amazing colors coming out of the sauce, dark reds, plenty of spices and fresh ingredients that you could taste throughout. It was clear that the person cooking or managing this recipe knows their stuff and our bartender told us that he was Italian and hailed from the area. I must confess that I came to the Tuscan Kitchen with my reservations, given that the Seaport is trendy and this is an Italian Restaurant chain. They have many locations in Boston, Burlington, etc. but this place did not disappoint and I am looking forward to coming for dinner, as we were there mostly for drinks and lunch and were surprised by this place!Thank you for making our day, especially as we were celebrating an amazing occasion and hoping to see you soon!Cheers!

We recently hosted a lunch time event at Tuscan Kitchen Seaport to celebrate our son's baptism and we can't recommend it highly enough. Olivia, the events manager, was a pleasure to work with, accommodating and collaborative throughout process. She helped us with menu selection, event space design and collaborated on overall flow of the space and the timing of events for our 3 hour event. Our guests all spoke very highly of the food and the service was extremely professional. Overall the process was extremely smooth from start to finish with selecting a private room to accommodate our guest count, picking menus and finalizing small details. We also appreciated the printed menus for our guests to view while selecting their meal option. The room set up was lovely and the view of the city with floor to ceiling windows made the event space look very special for photos. This was the second event we hosted there and we look forward to hosting more.

Very good service and good wine selection. Large servings but fish was dry from overcooking and tiramisu was still frozen! Guess they prepared it ahead. ;)

Beautiful restaurant. Great service and staff. From my perspective, the food was ok. Everything tasted a little too salty for us. The desserts were delicious though.
