Giaocomo's Restaurant and Taranta

Italian food is always a winner

There are tonnes Italian food fans in Boston (and, in general, all over the USA) who rely on colourful and appetising restaurants such as Giaocomo's for a taste of authentic Italian cuisine. It’s great value for money and the food comes highly recommended. Giaocomo's serves dishes such as calamari, fried bites, mozzarella, marinated mussels, beef with mushrooms and ham and all types of pasta (fettucini, ravioli, linguine...) accompanied by an endless variety of ingredients: prawns, scallops and broccoli in a creamy sauce, chicken and prawns with pesto; pumpkin with asparagus and diced ham in a Mascarpone cheese sauce... You’ll find it at 355 Hanover Street, in the heart of the North End. Another Italian restaurant, with slightly higher prices, is Taranta, which fuses southern Italian cuisine with Peruvian influences. Find out more at www.tarantarist.com.
