Known for their extremely elaborate burgers, this is my go-to spot. They have about 30-20 burgers on the menu and each is just as appealing as the one before it.

This is the Italian section of Boston and is a great place to spend the evening. I could suggest places to eat but they are honestly all amazing. Mike's Pastry and other bakeries in the area are a good place to stop for desert while you walk off the pasta.
