You’re not settling for ordinary seafood when you want something special. You want that perfect combination of fresh catch and authentic Italian preparation that makes every bite memorable.
At Tartufo, you’ll discover what happens when traditional Abruzzese coastal cuisine meets the highest standards of freshness. Our signature lobster ravioli with crab meat, mixed seafood linguini, and grilled calamari aren’t just dishes—they’re your gateway to the Italian coast, right here in Weston.
Every plate showcases seafood sourced with care and prepared using techniques passed down through generations. You taste the difference in our house-made pasta, the richness of our seafood risottos, and the perfect char on our grilled specialties.
Since 2004, we’ve been Weston’s destination for authentic Italian seafood dining. We’re not just another Italian restaurant—we specialize in the unique Abruzzese cuisine from Italy’s coastal region, where seafood takes center stage.
Our name comes from the rare truffle mushroom found only in Abruzzo, and that attention to authentic, regional ingredients defines everything we do. We often bring chefs directly from the Abruzzo region because we believe in honoring the true traditions of this remarkable coastal cuisine.
Located conveniently for Weston residents, we’ve built our reputation on consistency, quality, and that warm Italian hospitality that keeps families coming back for nearly twenty years. You’ll find us much more accessible than making the trek to Boston’s North End, yet with the same commitment to authentic flavors and premium ingredients.
Your evening starts the moment you walk through our doors. You’ll choose between our elegant upstairs dining room with chandeliers and large windows, or our newly renovated downstairs space with its sophisticated bar and intimate table settings.
Our chefs begin with the freshest seafood, sourced with the same care our Abruzzese ancestors used along Italy’s Adriatic coast. Each dish is prepared to order using traditional techniques—no shortcuts, no compromises. Whether you’re enjoying our signature half-lobster tagliatelle or our mixed seafood linguini with clams, mussels, and scallops, every component is crafted specifically for your table.
The experience unfolds naturally. Warm bread arrives as you settle in. Your server guides you through our seasonal specialties. And when your entrée arrives, you taste immediately why we’ve maintained our reputation for excellence across two decades. The seafood is perfectly prepared, the pasta is house-made, and every element works together to transport you to the Italian coast.

Since we prepare everything fresh, we can often adjust ingredients in dishes like our seafood risotto or modify our pasta preparations. Our servers are knowledgeable about ingredients and preparation methods, so they can guide you toward dishes that work best for your needs.
However, because we specialize in authentic Italian coastal cuisine, some modifications may affect the traditional character of certain dishes. We’ll always be honest about what changes are possible while still delivering the quality and authenticity that defines our restaurant.
We strongly recommend making reservations, especially for weekend dinners and special occasions. You can book through our website, call us directly, or use reservation platforms like OpenTable and Resy for immediate confirmation.

If you’re planning a romantic evening, let us know when you book—we can suggest optimal seating times to avoid our busier periods, and you might catch our live saxophone music on Tuesday evenings. Walk-ins are welcome when we have availability, but reservations guarantee your table and help us provide the best possible service.
