La Summa is the best restuarant in all of the North End and I have visited many of them over the years! A warm, family owned place with fantastic food and mostly locals at every table thanks to its location a block off Hannover. The home made ravioli is fantastic, the fettucine alfredo is outstanding, and the Veal Special is out of this world. Every time I visit Boston I drop in and have never had anything but a wonderful experience. Barbara is the owner and several of her family work with her making this a very special place.
Pros: Great food, warm family atmosphere
Cons: A little hard to find a block off the main street
