Rooftop Italian scene in the Newbury Hotel — scene first, food second

Based on 1,648 reviews

Best for: Special occasion where the room is the point (anniversaries, birthdays) · Out-of-town visitors who want a 'see Boston from above' meal · Cocktail-and-snack visits at the bar (less commitment, same view)

Busiest: Friday-Saturday dinner (7-10pm)

Reservations: Essential

What to Order

6 dishes

Veal Milanese

$78.00

Pounded thin, breaded and fried golden, finished with arugula and lemon — the menu's most-photographed plate

Cacio e Pepe

$38.00

Tonnarelli with pecorino and black pepper, tossed tableside — solid but priced steeply for what it is

Vitello Tonnato

$32.00

Thin-sliced veal with tuna-caper sauce, a classic done in the MFG house style
