Boston Magazine Selects Top Boston Area Restaurants

Boston Magazine ranked Bistro 5 on its top 50 list for Boston area restaurants.

The magazine had this to say about the Italian restaurant, owned by chef Vittorio Ettore:

“It’s the pride of West Medford, for good reason: Vittorio Ettore’s modern Italian menu is absolutely worth the trek, with hands down the best homemade gnocchi around (and we’ve tried them all); addictively spicy Wellfleet clams with pancetta; and a sea-scallop risotto accented with grapefruit. The mood is as relaxed and unpretentious as the food is serious, and the prices (all entrées are under $30) make this a bargain compared with in-town restaurants of similar quality.”

Bistro 5 is located at 5 Playstead Road in West Medford Square.
