 I really like Toscano on Charles Street in Boston.  It's not in the
 North End, but it's in a fun, historic part of the city.  Fairly
 pricey, but very fine Northern Italian cuisine.  They have valet
 parking.

 Well, if you want something that's actually *in* Boston and not the
 suburbs, I'd suggest Terra Mia on Salem Street in the North End.  It's
 newer Italian style, I had awesome polenta with portabello mushrooms
 there.  I'm sure there are a ton more but Italian restaurants to
 suggest but I haven't gotten to that many.
