Dining in Boston - Part 1 - Cafe Quattro

With all the choices for dining in Boston, how do you choose? I have to admit, this is no easy task!

But with this article, I hope to spotlight some of the noteworthy and worthwhile places to visit while having a hunger craving in the city of Boston Massachusetts.

Somerset Street is a little side street off of Beacon Street, near the Massachusetts State House and there is where you will find a little place called "Cafe Quattro". A little cafe that never ceases to amaze me with the fine entrees and what is more amazing is that the restaurant almost blends into is surroundings.

Walking down Somerset Street one afternoon, with my Lady, we stopped to look at the menu in the window of Cafe Quattro.

We'd passed by the restaurant many times before but never stopped, this time we did.

We didn't feel like cooking that night so we ordered a pizza to go.

"Gennaro" was the style we settled on, a thin crust pizza made with marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, and sliced onions!

First of all, this was a 20" pizza for under 10 bucks!

Second, this pizza was the best either one of us had had in a long long time!

You could tell just by the smell that it was going to be good, and with the first bite we were hooked!

Fresh ingredients, fresh made and just the right combination and amount of toppings.

This pizza is a masterpiece!

Before long we were ordering this pizza every week, sometimes more often.

Then we branched out, tried the other pizzas, those too were winners!

We were hooked on Cafe Quattro!

Next, we tried the Spinach Salad (with tomatoes, onions, mozzarella cheese and bacon bits), now mind you, I never cared for raw spinach until I tasted the Cafe's Salad.

Perfect!

Then we tried the Crabmeat Salad (over a garden or Caesar salad with artichoke hearts, onions, black olives and roasted red peppers), the Tuna Salad..

Not a single disappointment, the portions are generous and the prices are more than reasonable.

Most everything in Cafe Quattro is priced at under 10 bucks and all of it is made fresh!

Cafe Quattro is located at 4 Somerset Street, just off of Beacon Street near Suffolk University.

The Cafe delivers locally and also has a catering menu.

When you're touring Boston, this Cafe is a great place to stop to refuel!

Try the "Gennaro" Pizza - YOU'LL BE HOOKED!
