I tried it with wife and friends this past weekend. I loved the place. The food was excellent, service no problem, and a wonderful atmosphere. The chef greeted us at our table and prepared some wonderful food. We will go back. Truly a delight in our opinion.
Pros: very good food, nice atmosphere, good service
Cons: it's small (but cozy)

Had one of the best, tastiest, and most memorable meals here. It was a couple of years ago, so I can't offer too many details...but the fact I can remember it says something. We had the lamb shank and it was "off the hook" to quote our funny waitress. The service was great, the place was cozy, and like I said, the food is excellent (the kind of meal you remember years down the line!). I hope things haven't changed (although we went some time ago, it is possible things aren't as they were for our experience).
Pros: excellent food and service
Cons: can be crowded

We rarely make it out to eat outside of our South End-North End-Back Bay comfort zone and were rather hesitant when friends invited us to join them at Pava in Newton Center. We thought it might be another suburban horror with bored couples eating anything grateful to be away from their 2.6 children and Volvo for the night...but we were very pleasantly surprised. The decor is a little stark but for the space is welcoming and stylish- as was the hostess and the owner who made a point of greeting us. The menu is brief but we were impressed by the deep complex flavors of the duck and the smelt appetizers and the lamb and sole entrees. The wine list is decent and the mark ups bearable- we had an enjoyable pinot noir without feeling we were being fleeced. The wait staff were attentive and friendly without being intrusive. We did not have room for dessert but will definitely be back. Highly recommended.
Pros: Decor, waitstaff, menu
Cons: Its in Newton

This is one of my all time favorites. The cooking has always been outstanding and the service friendly. The dishes I recommend the most are the Mushroom Julienne and the Sturgeon Tzar. The pan friend pototates are also great with Russian taste of dill to them. Cranberry Vodka is great by itselft and between courses to clean the palate.
Pros: Cuisine, prompt service
Cons: need reservations

Whenever I think of Papa Gino's, it reminds me of when I was a child and my parents would bring my brother and I to the restaurant for dinner. It's just a kid-friendly atmosphere. It is old and it needs to be updated, but the food is fine. The pizza is good - it's not gourmet or anything, but it's still good. You can request crispy or well-done, which will be executed for your liking. There are also pasta dishes which are good. There are lunch specials during the day, like two slices of pizza and a soda or a pasta dish with a soda. Their subs also good, such as the steak bomb or steak and cheese. Papa Ginos's, it's a great place for families to bring their kids.
