Beyond David and the duomo.

visit, DC had the linguine al frutti di mare (linguine with various seafood, baked in parchment) and said it was great. but most of all, DC and i think that antico forno may have the best tiramisu we’ve had in boston (not...

Does anyone have any suggestions for specific dishes at Antico Forno? I’ll be there Friday night. Thanks!

Husband and I going to Boston for Valentine’s weekend. Sat. nite will probably be Legal Sea Foods, but need a place for Sun. nite. How about Antico Forno on Salem? I’ve heard a lot of good things. We don’t need...

My husband and I had the pizza bianco from Antico Forno in Piazza Campo dei Fiori 4 years ago on our honeymoon. I’ve since sent a recipe request thru Gourmet and got no reply. I’m not foolhardy enough to think...

By definition, if you make a reservation, you should be able to go out for dinner on a weekend or any night and expect to be seated at the time you reserved the table for. I’ve reported before about Antico Forno ignoring...

Someone here recommended the roast lamb sandwich at AF..I’m a long time fan of Artu’s version and wanyed to try the AF version..both excellent but the grilled, crusty bread that AF uses makes for a great...

Went to Antico Forno for a low-key date after it got some decent reviews on the board as a midrange North End spot. Started off with the “foccaccina” - essentially a pile of standard salad mix and nondescript goat...

I havent eaten at Marco and Bacco, but Antico Forno is one of my favorite NOrth End locales! Its very authentic! They have great pasta and pizza dishes and its extremely casual and laid back! One of my favorite things that they...

I finally got to Antico Forno for the first time after reading the many raves here. I’ve also sent people I know there based on the board’s reports, and they’ve loved it. I thought it was okay, but I don’t...

I’d recommend anything that comes out of the brick oven that gives Antico Forno its name. The Neapolitan-style pizzas and oven-baked pastas are all generally pretty good. As a rule, this is probably a good place to keep it...

Can’t go wrong with Antico Forno. I’ve never been to Ricardo’s, but would like to throw out another suggestion, and that would be Massimino’s on Endicot. I was there Saturday and had an amazing dish of...

I am also a fan of Antico Forno but I certainly wouldn’t compare it to Prezza which I also like a lot too. They are two very different restaurants but when I get a craving for more “down-home Italian” at...

Me and two dining companions had another great meal at Antico Forno on Salem St in the North End last night. The North End was surprisingly quiet for a Thursday night in the holiday season so we were able to just walk in and get...

I am taking a large group to Antico forno in a few weeks. The dinner will be served family style with a few selections for each course. What are your favorite menu items that I should include in our customized menu?
