Maitake Mushroom Risotto

$25.00

Creamy risotto with roasted maitake mushrooms and herbaceous notes.

Tip: This is a lighter option if you're watching portions. One risotto can feel substantial alongside other shared dishes on the tasting menu.

Risotto Milanese

$22.00

Hand-stirred risotto with saffron, bone marrow, and Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Tip: Order this as a side or standalone course — it's rich enough to anchor a meal, light enough to precede the steak.

North End·$$$

$138.00

Creamy risotto prepared with butter and Parmigiano-Reggiano, seasonal vegetables.

Tip: The risotto comes in the middle of the meal and pairs well with the white wine they suggest. It's a palate-setter before the heavier mains.

Risotto with Truffles and Parmigiano

$42.00

Creamy risotto finished with shaved white truffle and aged Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Tip: This is a splurge dish when white truffles are available — it justifies the higher price and is worth the expense.
