Not all Italian food is created equal. Just ask anyone who has been to Maggiano’s. From homemade sauces to indulgent desserts, practically everything is made in-house and on-premises. The enormous restaurant is located across from the Boston Park Plaza Hotel and is a great spot for some pre or post-theater family style dining. There is a large bar at the main entrance as soon as you walk in surrounded by a massive dining room lined with red and white clothed tables and booths. (Be sure to ask for a window table for some fun people watching).
