This was our first time dining at Toscana Forno in Reading Mass and it was excellent! The menu is well varied with a range of options and prices so there is something for everyone! Not only is the food delicious but also the presentation is quite appealing. Service was superb and there was an obvious air of teamwork among the staff!

We have been fortunate enough to frequent this establishment for the past four years while our child attended college in Boston. The ambience is spectacular and all the staff make you feel like family. The food and service is top notch. We feel it’s the best restaurant in the north end in the city of Boston.
