Torelli Trattoria

Great place for a Romantic Itaian dinner.

The restaurant and atmosphere are simply delightful. Super casual atmosphere while maintaining a fine dining level of professionalism. Pricing is amazing for the location, a must try on Melrose

Truly authentic Italian.
Incredible dining menu with classic old world selections.
Amazing wine list and by the glass offerings.
Price to high-quality ratio is fantastic
Cozy, comfortable, and stylish interior with a great, large European style patio.
A must visit place.

Okay, this is bar FAR the best Italian food I've had in the US ever. EVER!!!

I'd write a longer review if I wasn't in a food coma right now. But let me suggest that you try these things:

Calamari - it's fresh and unlike anything I've ever had, even at the most fancy restaurant or in Las Vegas.

Lasagna - made with real bechamel instead of ricotta. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you've never had REAL lasagna before.

Carbonara - again, made the right way. No cream. Just eggs, pancetta and cracked pepper. My god - now I'm hungry again.

Wonderful staff and atmosphere. I walked in and was served right away. The menu is very unique and I was able to start with a Caprese. The bread was soft and fresh. Looking forward to visit again for lunch!
