We had a delightful meal at Tresca. The space is open, not elbow to elbow and you can actually have a conversation! Food is fresh, honest and flavorful, with new and classic dishes to suit everyone. But the standout is the excellent and attentive service; what a great team and the owner is there making sure all goes smoothly. We are local and have eaten many times in the North End and Tresca is like being with family. Bravo!
