You’ll discover what happens when premium steaks meet authentic Italian craftsmanship. Every cut is carefully selected and expertly prepared, creating that perfect balance of char and tenderness that keeps you coming back.
Our commitment to excellence means you’re not just getting a meal—you’re experiencing nearly two decades of culinary mastery. Each steak tells the story of authentic Abruzzese tradition, where quality ingredients and time-honored techniques create something truly exceptional.
This is what dinner should feel like. Relaxed, elegant, and absolutely delicious.
Since 2004, we’ve been Tewksbury’s destination for exceptional steak dining with an Italian soul. We’re not your typical steakhouse—we’re where authentic Abruzzese tradition meets premium American cuts.
Founded by Anna Mountzuris, our restaurant brings together the best of both worlds: expertly grilled steaks and the warmth of genuine Italian hospitality. Our chefs, many trained in the Abruzzo region of Italy, understand that great food starts with great ingredients and ends with genuine care.
Located conveniently in Tewksbury, we offer what many drive to Boston’s North End to find—authentic Italian cuisine with the added excellence of premium steakhouse dining, all without the hassle of city parking.
Your experience begins with our carefully curated selection of premium cuts, sourced from trusted suppliers who share our commitment to quality. Each steak is hand-selected for marbling, tenderness, and flavor potential.
Our kitchen team applies authentic Italian preparation techniques, seasoning each cut to enhance its natural flavors while maintaining the integrity of the meat. We use high-temperature cooking methods that create the perfect exterior char while keeping the interior exactly as you ordered.
The result arrives at your table as it should: perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and accompanied by our signature Italian-inspired sides that complement rather than compete with your steak’s natural flavors.
