Two great Italian Rest come to mind, but not in Cambridge, they are in Boston in the North End. Mamma Maria's Rest next to the Paul Revere House is a great intimate place in sort of an old house setting. Parking is the only drawback, but a cab would be perfect and the maitre'D can call you one after dessert. Fresh ingredients, made with care, Entrees $12-$25 but well worth it. Nice wine list. Reserv. a must. The other rest. is also in the North End on the second floor of Washington st and Causeway st where Polcari's used to be. The Brink's Garage parking is 100 yards down Causeway St.Oh yeah the name of it is Filippo's and features an eclectic cuisine that is neither or both northern and southern Italian. Exquisitley decorated including the ceiling. It is the Cistine Chapel of food. Look up when your are seated. Fish fowl pasta they are all uniquely prepared and served leisurely. Enjoy. Mangia!
