It was during a trip to the United States to visit family when I noticed the abundance of so-called "Italian restaurants." Aside from the fancy names on their marquees, these establishments held no trace of the flavor, freshness and sense of tradition, which defines true Italian food. My family and I felt it was our responsibility to provide a fresh, made-from-scratch Italian food to Boston.

What a GEM this tiny place is! Fresh, authentic, homemade Italian food! The pasta dishes taste like a warm hug from an Italian grandma who doesn't speak English. Every meal is just so warm and comforting, I can't seem to get enough!
My favorite is any one of their handmade pastas with the Alfredo pesto sauce. This sauce is perfect. It's creamy and savory with a great consistency; not too heavy or too light (watery) like I've experienced at other places. I also add some meatballs to my pasta which come with a bit of marinara sauce on them - I know this is an unusual combo but

Incredible food. Fresh, delicious, and huge portions. I live in the North End, so thankfully get to experience some pretty delicious Italian food, but this place is better than most (if not all?) of them, and of course much more reasonably priced. Well worth the wait when there’s a line. Highly recommend.

As good as it gets! Wow what amazing food. The spicy Italian sub-sammy was outstanding with sliced-to-order imported capicola (aka gabagool) provolone, "hot stuff" (as we Bostonians say) roasted peppers and fresh, delicious bread. The meatball sub had some very tasty meatballs and sauce and the slices of pizza were outrageously yummy. The pepperoni slice has imported Italian REAL Pepperoni. And a slice is the size of your head, seriously. Also tried the chicken Broccoli with fresh fusilli in aglio olio (garlic and oil) and it was cooked to order with the freshest pasta and succulent chicken

What is not to like about a place that serves up traditional Italian food to go in the heart of downtown Boston? What would I not recommend here, the sandwiches are fantastic as well as the pasta dishes. If you are looking for something really substantial, order a slice of pizza, which is not really a slice but more a whole quarter of a pie. I have not had one bad meal here! The only call out is the line that can get rather long during the lunch rush, but that's to be expected for great food. A huge recommend for here.
Also note that the seating is rather limited here so you are much

People on here seem to rave about this place, but I've tried it now three times, with three items, and my experiences have been between "meh" and today's "I'm not even going to eat this." So maybe it depends on what you order, or who's in the kitchen that day? I don't know.
Today I ordered linguini with pesto sauce and chicken. I had thought with the rave reviews that I'd be getting legit pesto, like I might make at home. Not even close. It's just olive oil with some dark flakes of what was definitely not fresh basil. It's pretty

Very good food. The sandwiches are to die for, and include high quality ingredients for a reasonable price. I ordered online for pickup and paid extra for pesto, which I didn't get on my sandwich. The cannoli was also just okay. It was a Sicilian connoli with two cherries on the end of the filling. I will be returning to try pasta and some other sandwiches!

Casa Razdora is right out of a movie. It's 100% what you'd dream a small Italian restaurant would be. This lunch stop did not disappoint. When you immediately walk in the door you get "next!" shouted your way to get your order, but don't get frazzled. You can take your time to look if you need it! And, if you can't read the board on the wall there's individual copies of the full menu laying on the counter ledge where they take your order. I will say it gets pretty tight in there as you order & wait because of their popularity.

Amazing, tasty and authentic!!! Fresh made daily you can taste. The staff speaking Italian was music to my ears and made the experience even that much better!! I felt like was in Italy for a bit and made me excited to go!! We each had 3 different dishes and ALL of them were perfection!! The Seafood Ravioli thoooo...... They're a small family business in the financial district so they mainly cater to the people who work in the area during the lunch rush hour. Open from 11am - 4pm, Monday - Friday and I'm all for it! If you ever go to Boston I highly recommend it!

A go-to lunch spot in the Financial District. The food, especially the sandwiches, are awesome! The bread is fresh, the meat is freshly sliced and the sauces are all made in house.
The ordering experience can be overwhelming. If you go during rush hour (11:45-1:00) expect there to be a line out the door or winding through the shop. The menu is really large (and very finely printed), making it difficult to decide what to get. I suggest looking up the menu ahead as you are often asked what your order is the second you walk in.
My order is the Ottimo sandwich; add hot peppers and salami. Excluding

I've been here only once, and that was enough to give them 5 stars for their pasta. When I went, I ordered before and it was ready on time. When I picked up, it was a cute little hole in the wall and the people working there were speaking Italian; it felt so authentic.
I got the linguini with Campagnola sauce (they have SO many options for sauces and pasta). And it was so light and full of flavor. It was the perfect portion and for only $8.50. Oh and you get bread with it, which was a great little addition.
HIGHLY recommend! Great price, great variety and great taste.

A very popular Italian place for lunch!
Everybody I know speaks very highly of this place, and rightfully so. They have a pretty extensive menu and even have different daily specials. I got the breaded chicken breast Thursday lunch special and my friend got a meatball panini. Both were very delicious.
This place operates very efficiently, be prepared to know what you're going to order before stepping in! They get the food to you very quickly, I got my chicken breast within a minute of paying!
Would definitely come back

Good food, ambiance, and most importantly, prices. The last time I went, I got the seafood ravioli with some lemon based cream sauce. Not my brightest moment, it was not a particularly good pairing, very sweet but lemony (zesty) sauce. All the other times have been pretty good though it's ok! Lines get long during lunch rush so plan ahead.

As others have said, this place is tiny, with just a bare handful of tables and a booming takeout business at lunch. They serve up a huge menu of authentic, fresh, delicious Italian-American classics with their pastas made in house every morning. But I think their greatest offering is the piadini menu, at least a dozen different versions of this famous Italian sandwich. Highly recommended.

Quick order Italian at Casa Razdora. If you don't want to go to the North End and want your pasta, this is the spot. I ordered online and headed over to pick it up. It was the middle of the lunch rush and rather than "cut the line" even though I was only picking up, I waited anyway. There really isn't enough room to split "ordering" from "paying" here so keep that in mind.
My pasta was hot and fresh and ready. I brought it back to the apartment and dug in. Nice fresh marinara sauce with penne noodles. Very hot, very fresh. The meatballs were quite good,

Having some business in the area a couple of days, I came here based on the Yelp reviews, not Guy Fieri. Not a hater or anything, but I don't watch as much Triple-D as I used to.
I went for the shrimp scampi special my first trip and was provided a decent portion of good quality pasta. There was sufficient reasonably-cooked shrimp to be satisfied.
The diavola pizza is very good and definitely worth getting. I love sopressata, and it's a good alternative to pepperoni. The size of the slice you get amounted to two slices itself. My slice came piping hot and fresh. Good mozzarella cheese

Definitely some of the best Italian food I have ever had!
First - pay attention to their hours! They are only open 11am-4pm Mon-Fri and closed on the weekends.
My husband and I stopped in here for lunch one afternoon while we were in town visiting. Also beware that it's a small place - like super small. There is constantly a short line to order your food and then there are like 2 tables and and a small bar for seating. It is really more of grab your lunch and go kind of spot. We were lucky enough to catch a couple getting up from the bar so I snagged the seats. I told my husband
