In Short
Tresca, which serves multi-regional Italian, sports an acclaimed wine cellar that houses more than 500 vintages. The main dining area, with its fireplace and slightly rustic feel, yields a romantic atmosphere. One of the North End's priciest menus includes a lengthy assortment of hand-made pastas (ricotta ravioli with green garlic and sweet pea puree) and prime steaks and chops (veal porterhouse with broccoli rabe and lemon-scented EVOO).
