Where to taste it in Boston

Regional Partner Coming Soon

This region is still waiting for its Boston table. We are selecting the right restaurant and pasta tradition rather than forcing the wrong pairing.

Menus, ingredients, prices and availability can change. Confirm current information directly with the restaurant before visiting. Speak with the restaurant regarding allergies or dietary restrictions. Pesto Pastaria does not control restaurant preparation or cross-contact.
