"It’s a feat in and of itself to keep a restaurant alive and well for nearly ten years and one pandemic. But the Venetian-inspired SRV — which stands for the Serene Republic of Venice — isn’t merely still standing after all that time in the South End. The restaurant keeps giving us reasons to return again and again: the chefs are always adapting the Italian menu to showcase fresh, new ideas (but they don’t overdo it; old favorites stay on for a reason) and the staff’s hospitality is second to none. It’s no surprise that so many diners keep coming back here for a consistently outstanding meal. Can’t decide what to order? Try the restaurant’s $65-per-person Arsenale option, a shared tasting menu for the table that pays homage to Venice." - Eater Staff
