"Let me keep it concise: I live in Canada but have visited Boston three times in my life. On my first trip, about ten years ago, I stumbled upon a last-minute hotel deal in Winthrop, not realizing it was a bit outside the tourist area of Boston. While looking for a place to eat on Shirley Street, I discovered Alia's. Having spent several months in Italy, I know what authentic pasta should taste like (and it doesn’t have to be in Italy to be good). I settled in and tried what became the best pasta I’ve ever tasted in America.
Now, whenever I plan a trip to Boston, dining at Alia’s is my top priority. This place is fantastic, and I can't recommend it enough! While you won’t find traditional Italian music playing or servers in designer clothes, you will enjoy a warm and welcoming atmosphere, savoring delicious dishes lovingly prepared by Said. Thank you for a wonderful evening!
Vegetarian options: If you have any specific requests, just ask Said—he’s more than happy to accommodate!"
