Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Chestnut Hill

All of our meals were amazing. Service was fabulous, we will be joining again!

Excellent creative appetizers which made for a perfect dinner. We will be back for more!

Great dinner at Toscano. Service was excellent with Fernando taking great care of us. My veal parm was one of the best I’ve had. Wife loved the clam spaghetti. Others had the T-bone steak which was also a big hit. Overall an excellent experience.

Food was great, just a little tight depending on where you’re seated. We got the truffle Arancini to share, so delicious! Im not usually a huge arancini fan, but this made me change my mind:) I got the Milanese for my entree, it was nice and crispy. I also enjoyed the arugula salad on top, it was perfectly dressed. I will say, I love sitting on the patio during the summer!! Best spot on Newbury in my personal opinion!!

Every dining experience I've had at Standard Italian has been wonderful - both the themed dinners they put on, and regular dinners out. Their staff has always been so warm & friendly, the food is always insanely delicious and approachable (I think I could eat the tuna crudo every day of my life and be happy), and don't get me started on their cocktails. I find the value for the portion sizes to be right on point, though for me it's always worth paying a little more for a delicious & unforgettable meal. I'm a fan of the whole ESK/Standard Italian group - I'll keep coming back and recommending them to anyone who will listen.
