Don't let the waiters' military-style uniforms (complete with Italian-flag epaulets—or is that Mexico?) fool you, the mood at this North End standby is anything but regimented. From the moment you enter the warm, candlelit, romantic dining room off Hanover St., owner Franco Graceffa will cajole you into having a good time, whether you're on a quiet date or a blocking group party. The food here shines, too, with a menu that covers traditional Southern Italian dishes and some regional specialties. Start with the involtini di Melanzane ($10), an eggplant rolatini that continues to be a crowd favorite, and the fried calamari ($10). Move on to massive portions of chicken, veal, and pasta, making sure to sample the chicken braciolettini ($20) and mozarella, portabello, and spinach-stuffed veal ($30). One caveat: even with reservations (highly recommended), you may have to wait a bit to get a table, especially with big groups. That said, once you've cooled your heels at the bar and joined in one of Graceffa's boisterous sing-alongs, you'll be ready to take on the delights Dolce Vita has to offer. Life here is indeed very, very good. Entrees $15-30.

Improv is at its craziest—and best—at this underground comedy haven. Tucked into the beginning of Hanover Street in the North End,mainstage shows combine improv and sketches into a slap-happy laugh orgy (W-Th 8pm, $15; F-Sa 8 and 10pm, $20). After the mainstage, late shows ($5-10) offer routines and sketches from guest artists as well as the cast. The all-improv Midnight Show (Sa, $10) is even zanier. Students can enjoy all NXT shows, featuring the “developmental” cast, for free ($5 for non-students). The onsite bar does a brisk business. Improv Asylum also offers classes ($250 for 8 3hr classes), corporate training, and private performances. Call a couple days ahead to ensure admission, a few weeks ahead for large parties.

Flower Shop
They have a pretty little storefront and in the summertime have ready-made bouquets of roses that can be purchased on the sidewalk of Hanover Street. They also have several people selling single roses to tourists and couples as they make their way along the street, which definitely adds to the charm of the North End. Reasonably priced, so you shouldn't balk for a second about buying one for your sweetie pie.
