    Toscano is always buzzing with the joy of dining out, and its location in the heart of Harvard Square amplifies this. We celebrated our anniversaries here last night, and it was delightful! We felt well taken care of, the food was outstanding (sea bass fillets & steak from the daily specials), and we never felt rushed - encouraged to enjoy our evening together at our own pace. We will add this experience to our (long) list of treasured anniversary memories.

    The food variation from the cauliflower to the spareribs as well as the drinks make Wusong our favorite place to eat. In addition, the service is always really good - our waiters are always easy going and helpful when we have a hard time making choices- and it’s often hard to choose because everything is so tasty!

    We really enjoyed the family style sharing of many different items. The dishes were all very flavorful and delicious. The ingredient combinations were unique, and they worked really well together. We had our three kids with us and they enjoyed trying everything too. Definitely would love to return for another wonderful meal. The service was very attentive and we thought the ambiance was chic and welcoming.
