Alba Restaurant

This place was an amazing restaurant by far. The service there was impeccable. They were so nice and they did their job very well. I ordered the bolognese and it was big enough for two people. It had an amazing flavor in the shredded cheese on top and the sauce with the pasta made it perfect. It was also a little bit dark to enhance the atmosphere and I thought it was very nice. I cannot wait to come back here because of how good the food is and the restaurant. The only minor problem that I had was that the lava cake that we had for desert didn't have the melted chocolate ganache inside. It just didnt melt but it was still very good. This was an awesome place and I highly recommend it to everyone.

We had been to this restaurant once before and had a pleasant evening, but tonight was one of the worst restaurant experiences of my life. We received a very chilly reception from the hostess, and felt oddly out of place all night as we were sat very far from everyone in the restaurant. Then, we ordered a medium-done steak and medium-rare steak. The latter was SO rare, it was still cold. The medium steak was poorly seasoned and had giant chunks of peppercorn stuck to the outside that were not pleasant to eat. I just got engaged tonight and my fiancee had hoped to give us a nice evening out, but this was unfortunately just terrible. I will never go back.

I have been here multiple times and sat in all the rooms and rooftop bar. The rooftop is very nice, with a full bar and tv, perfect for warm days. The two different dining areas in the interior have different vibes, one is a nice restaurant that could border on formal and the other side has a bit more of a bar vibe. It can be a bit confusing to find the main entrance as there is a big glass sliding door that stays locked on the side where the main street is. The door is actually on the corner. ALBA and Zef cicchetti are part of the same restaurant so it pops up as both when you search it. The servers have always been attentive without rushing. The food was DELICIOUS. I'm a big seafood lover and the raw bar/seafood options do not disappoint. I can recommend Crab cakes and raw oysters for an appetizer. These were the best raw oysters I've ever had. For entrees I can recommend the Diavolo linguine and the grilled octopus. Both were very tasty. I highly recommend getting an order of truffle fries because they are addictive. It all paired nicely with a Chianti red wine. I will for sure come here again on date night. Suitable for solo, friends, families and dates. More upscale and pricey of a setting but well worth it in the food! It's central location to Quincy Allows for a bit of a run around looking for parking but it is doable and it is also fairly close to the Red Line T. It is nice to take a stroll along the strip after dinner and take in Quincy Center.

Came here when we went to Boston, and we walked from our Airbnb. This place has such a great rooftop vibe - very energetic and lively. We had fresh oysters here, and they were so huge and fresh. I loved them. Then, we had a salmon sushi roll, and that was the best salmon I have ever had. We shared the sword fish steak, and it was a bit fishy at first, but it was good after a few bites. This place was very good though, and I highly recommend it.

We love Alba for the food and the ambiance but wanted to give them a special shout-out for the service and attention we had on our most recent experience. Around 35 people came to the roof deck on a rainy stormy night for a 30th birthday party. The staff was so incredibly accommodating - from offering to help set up decorations, to slicing up and serving a birthday cake that we brought in, to staying open even as the rain picked up and only our group was up there. Even our phone conversations with the manager on the day were next-level in terms of willingness to help accommodate us. Can’t recommend enough! And try the Winter/Summer in Italy drink - it’s fantastic.
