Overpriced for the quality and poor service. 5/22/2007

Ive dined in the bar and in the main dining room. The bar was a better experience as the service was much better. In my opinion, its the same overpriced, average food, and poor service that existed with the prior tenant in this space, Black FIn. Unfortunately the name change and small face lift didnt improvie my experience. In fact, the best experience was the Vodka promotion night and that was only because drinks were free. more

Food and Service were Great 3/30/2007

I liked many things about Sasso, the food was tasty, I had the crudo misto for appetizer and the braised wild boar for my entree, and they were as good as I had hoped for. Our server was great, and very knowledgeable about the food and wine selection, and we even had a table visit from one of the owners who were there, Ted Kennedy. The space was a bit loud, so I would recommend going there with the right crew, but not for a romantic date, however, my experience at Sasso was to my expectations. Pros: Service, Food Cons: Loud Space more

Totally lackluster 3/7/2007

After dining several times, we find ourselves still lost in the cold, vast dining room. The food is lackluster, there are definitely far better Italian meals to be had in back bay/south end. Even with the supposed change of chefs, the food still seemingly unchanged. We keep hoping that the experiences would get better, as the service is usually what kept us coming back, but it only covered up the fact that the food, just really isn't that good. As fans of the heralded Lucca, it seems as they just took the same simple mediocre food, upped the price, and took away the cozy ambiance. Wines are very fairly priced, again service has been good. But food lovers be weary ! Pros: service, wine list Cons: vast dining room, poor food, way over-priced! more
