What People Are Saying About Joe Tecce's Ristorante and Cafe

In Short – Awash in the red-sauced legacy of Italian-American Boston politicos, Tecce's is a straightforward and unpretentious spot to sample some B.N.I. (Before Nouveau Italian) fixings--which, incidentally, aren't half bad. The "Fabulous Specials" are all named after local (mostly Italian) luminaries. The heaping plate of "John A. Nucci," for example, was christened such in honor of the clerk magistrate, and is a heaping pile of baked and stuffed calamari over linguini swimming in marinara.

Great place for a corporate or family event!
by BostonDiner at Citysearch
I was at Joe Tecce's for a company holiday party in December 2005. It must have been just before the renovation. While, the party was lovely and the passed Hors D'voures tasty I didnt truly get to experience Joe Tecce's since the menu was already selected for us. I returned this past Friday and to my surprise, the restaurant had outdoor dining, a great roomy bar and a warm inviting italian menu. I was impressed with everyone I met from the valet attendant to the bartender and our waitress. I will most certainly be back to Joe Tecce's sooner rather than later. People should definelty consider this as a pre or post event meal if you have a Celtics or Bruins game or concert at the Garden!
- Pros: Valet Parking! Outodoor dining!

great italian-american food
by Annunziata1 at Citysearch
ok, for all of the people who have been to Italy on a vacation......this is Boston, not Italy. I understand that Italy has different food depending on the region you visit and I love the food in Italy too (I lived there I didn't just go on some bogus touristy vacation) but when you are in America you are eating Italian-American food unless your italian grandmother is cooking :) This restaurant has great italian-american fare and a great atmosphere. I think Tecce's falls below the radar because of it's location and poor advertising and that's a shame. Some things to try.....I love the calamari and antipasti and the pizza is very authentic unlike some of the close by pizzerias....they also have a good red wine selection and the prices are reasonable for the area. Definitely give it a try!!!

Simply Amazing!!!

For the idiot who gave this place a one star who has been to italy once in their god forsaken life. You are quite wrong. I had the chicken marsala and it was the best dinner I have had in years. My family are true Italians and all of them adored the mouth watering food. So if you like your dollar menu chicken marsala when you went to Italy and stayed at the Holiday Inn then you are in for a rude awakening. You obviously have not the slightest idea what a good meal consists of since you probably nibble on your own T urds. So next time you go to the North End save us all the grief of showing your face at Joe Tecce's because no one likes a complainer.
- Pros: Great Decorations
- Cons: Nothing...
