What can you say about a bakery that is open 24 hours a day except perfecto! Bovo's keeps the sweet treats cranking all day and night as well as yummy sandwiches and strombolis coming for the after bar crowd and North End denizens all night. This is a North End must!

This restaurant doesn't have the same kind of atmosphere as most of the other trattorias and cucinas in the neighborhood, but the food is just as good and with large portions so just get it for take out. Great pasta to impress your new girlfriend with a 'homemade' dinner (wink). The subs are freakin' huge for about $8 and 2 people could easily split it. Good luck getting your mouth around one of these, I dare you to try. The service is super-friendly. No cell phones, no credit cards. Don't order a half sandwich, and DO have your cash ready in hand. Tip: if you get hots, be careful because they are served with a heavy hand.

Local restaurants purchase the homemade pasta from Monica's market for use in their kitchens. You can purchase all sorts of prepared foods here, from eggplant parmesan to pizza to meatballs. If you're entertaining or just don't want to cook for the night, you can't go wrong with the exellent dishes here. High quality.
