Union Oyster House

• Everything.
• Nothing.

“The bartender was very accommodating and we enjoyed hearing the history of this very old restaurant. When we got called to dinner (up a long staircase by the way, no elevators), the bartender carried dinner up the stairs for us. The meal was very good, and the service at the bar was unforgettable. We enjoyed our trip.”

Pagliucas Restaurant

• I liked being in the North End of Boston.

“Going there for the first time was very disappointing. We didn't get seated until 8:30 and waited another 10 minutes before we were even acknowledged by a waitress. There was no apology nor consideration from the restaurant for this ridiculous wait. The food was nothing special. The Angel hair pasta was soft and overcooked. My veal Saltimbocca was way too salty. My friends neither complained nor raved about their dishes. I'll not go there again.”

• Atmosphere.
• Overpriced, unsanitary, awful service.

“Perfect atmosphere but the food is extremely overpriced and really not worth the money. The service is even worse than the food. The staff is very unprofessional and unsanitary. I have had lunch and even had an event catered by them in the past. I will never make that mistake again. Sebastian's is far superior and dependable.”

Pagliucas Restaurant

Overall Rating: 10

• Always delicious.
• Living 1600 miles away.

“My wife and I found Pagliucas while walking/running through the North End getting drenched in a sudden down pouring rain. This was about 12 years ago and we have been going back every time we are in Boston. The food is wonderful, authentic, and cooked to order. I always have the Zuppa di escarole fagioli even though it is so huge I can't make it through the tender Veal Marsala. Have a Tiramasu and Sambuca with your espresso and you will return time and time again to this North End treasure.”

• Food and service was good.
• Appearance.

“Nice quiet spot to stop and have a bite to eat and drink. We had the appetizer sampler which was very good. A lot of food for a decent price. Overall appearance of restaurant was not that great but enjoyed the service.”
