In short:
A great Italian place, good food and good cocktails. Recommended to go during the happy hour (4:30-6)

In length to those who love the details:
Posto has a happy hour between 4:30 and 6:00 pm, that include one appetizer, one pizza and one dessert. We were two people, we shared one happy hour and took two cocktails

Food:
Apatizer: We took the arancini in the marinara sauce - was nice and the sauce was good and spicy.
Pizza: the mashroom pizza - one of the best mashroom pizzas I ate. Many meaty mushrooms, with spinach and garlic that added to the earthy and umami taste, with lemon zest that added great freshness to the mix. Highly recommend this pizza.
Dessert: we took the tiramisu that was nice and small, not to heavy and sweet. A great ending for a great meal.

Cocktails:
We took the sun-kiss with mezcal instead of tequila and the euphoria. The barman was amazing. He served all the people who sat in the bar, and created the most beautiful cocktails. Each one carefully made and the results were nice to look at, but even better to taste. We usually don't like sweet cocktails, and the euphoria was a bit sweet, but it was well balanced in the cocktail, with the great fennel tastes. The sun-kiss with mezcal was amazing. I really like mezcal, but I know that the smokey taste is not for everyone.

Absolutely amazing experience, packed Friday night but they sat us down fairly quick. Got the raspberry mule and it exceeded expectations. We tried the octopus, carpaccio as entries, and the prosciutto and margherita pizza. The dough, tomato sauce and cheese are high quality, kudos to chef Juan Gabriel and his team for their artesanal work. Very satisfied, great music and ambient, highly recommended wether
you are visiting with a group or for a romantic date. Will definitely come back soon to try other things they have to offer.

Been going here for years since I grew up in Somerville, pretty much have been going ever since y’all opened, and it hits every time. Excellent food, ambience, kitchen team, and nice servers/hosts. Never sat at the bar but I bet it’s great too. I’ve recommended this place to friends new to Somerville and I don’t make food recs lightly!

I’ve been wanting to eat at this restaurant for a very long time and finally had the chance. It did not disappoint me and it was just as good as I expected. The pizzas were absolutely delicious, I particularly enjoyed the combo of the Calabrese Chili Oil and honey in the Soppressata. We also tried several appetizers and they were all amazing, the focaccia was to die for and the tomatoes on the bruschetta were just perfect. The restaurant is beautiful, modern, cozy and welcoming, great service and yummy drinks (I warmly recommend the Rosso Italiano. Wonderful experience, can’t wait to go back and try their pastas and desserts!

Went in because it was recommended by a colleague, and was not disappointed. Although the restaurant is a bit far from Boston and too dark inside for my taste, the pizza was quite nice.

Pizzas (of course) were a hit. Margarita and special burrata specifically were delicious- very light yet crisp crust and delightfully acidic sauce. Next time I would probably skip the corn pizza (something was lacking…) and arancini (not as hot as I would have liked, nor as crisp on the outside) though. Very friendly service though and nice environment. Also doesn’t hurt that they were voted top 50 in the US! :)

We went there for a casual dinner on Monday; everything was great. The ambiance was good, and the food was excellent. We had the burrata, arugula salad, gnocchi, and carbonara. The plates were well-portioned and delicious! I'm not a fan of Carbonara, but this one was perfect! Creamy and rich, I could eat two!
Everything was superb. We are definitely going back and recommending it to my friends.

I absolutely loved Posto. The atmosphere was warm with quiet chatter and flickering candles. The service was lovely. I was there for my reservation a bit earlier than my sister so I waited for a bit and was offered a drink (I went for Vogue Vibes, sister had Sweater weather, both tasted divine and looked fabulous as well. The food....WOW. We didnt exactually get much as we were just catching up and I had kids to get home to but wow. I highly recommend both the arancini and the bruschetta. So good I told my guy we are absolutely going back for date night. It's a bit small but theres more space than I originally thought. As a usually overly anxious person, I felt very relaxed at Posto and HIGHLY recommend this Davis Square GEM!

Awesome spot for a great Italian meal. We had the carbonara, shrimp pasta, and pizza, and all of them were delicious! Portion sizes were nice, enough for brunch leftovers!

Short rib gnocchi was great, very rich and the gnocchi melts in your mouth. The shrimp pesto pasta had a very light and refreshing feel to it, not heavy garlicky pesto. The creamy mushroom ziti was perfect, as well. Brussel sprouts are served with a maple goat cheese which really completed the whole dish, very delicious. Calamari was standard. Grilled octopus came chopped up with greens and potatoes, would have preferred a singular charred tentacle but was still good nonetheless and had a savory red pepper sauce that paired perfectly. Mushroom pizza was delicious. Their pizzas are wood-fired neopolitan style and if you like that style, here is the best you can get around Boston.

I've been to a lot of pasta and pizza places in Boston, this may be top 10. The past here is AMAZING. It's fresh, bursting with flavor, and packed with delicious ingredients. The pizza is next level. It's soft but not raw, few ingredients but complex flavor, and thin but not a flat bread. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The chef/owner was working that night. We asked to speak with him and he was humble and kind. I was blown away with the high quality of dishes. The restaurant itself is warm and inviting. This place is a must!

This was a 5-star experience all around. The atmosphere was lively, classy yet casual, with great music. Our waiter was knowledgeable about the menu, able to make good recommendations, and had a sense of humor. The food required little wait and the drinks were solid. I never thought any pizza could top my favorite restaurant in Medford, but this place may win my heart. The crust is chewy and perfectly charred- they provide half a menus’ worth of pizza options that you can adjust as needed. Short rib gnocchi was also good which was reminiscent of my dad’s beef goulash (except with fresh gnocchi). All in all, Posto is the first restaurant in a long time to have blown me away- we will absolutely be back to try more!

Amazing pizza, great service and a really good authentic tiramisu as well. I can 100% recommend this place. It also has a great variety of red and white pizza for you to choose from.

The Neapolitan pizzas are EXCELLENT. Possibly the best in the area. We ordered four different pizzas to try as many as possible. The mushroom white pizza was by far the favorite. It had mushrooms, spinach and lemon zest. The prosciutto pizza was also very good. The crust of all the pizzas was very thin, as it should, with tall crispy borders. We ordered Peroni beers to drink. We were there just before closure, unfortunately, so we couldn't try desserts or drinks. Will go back earlier and try that too.

Went for Saturday night dinner. Very quick service. Good mocktail options. Got the buffalo chicken pizza and mushroom rigatoni and shared both; still went home with some delicious leftovers. The mini cannoli trio was fresh and tasty, too.

TL;DR: Fantastic food. The drinks were great too! Not too much not to love here.

Food:

Arancini - One of my favorites around Boston. Definitely get these.

Brussels - These brussel sprouts are always cooked to perfection with a nice cheese in the middle.

Olives - A plate of olives with puts and slices of orange zest. If you like olives, you can't go wrong with this dish.

Pane - It basically tastes like a margherita pizza without the sauce or the cheese. It's a flatbread. Lol!

Margherita Pizza - One of the best margherita pizzas in the area, prepared in a wood oven.

Meat & Mushroom Pizza - It's exactly what you would expect from the description. I loved this pizza.

Mushroom Pizza - I'm not usually a fan of white pizzas but this was exceptional.

Dessert:

Double Chocolate Cake - Once again, no complaints. The cherry sauce compliments the cake very well.

Drinks:

Sangria - Just a standard sangria. I wish it had more fruit pieces in it but it's still great.

Pear with me - I love this drink. It tastes like a pear and comes with a dehydrated pear slice.

Visited this location while on vacation and fell in love with the concept. Had the pleasure to meet Chef Juan. I tried the happy hour with the bbq chicken pizza, tiramisu and Bruschetta. Everything was to die for. Look forward to return again.

Romantic dinner! We ordered the calamari and it was very crispy. Ribeye with greens and potatoes, delicious. But the star of the meal, Margherita Pizza with extra mozzarella and fresh basil. 10/10 must try!
