"Just about everyone loves Italian food (and if they don’t, they’re probably not someone you want to work with, anyway). Sportello is not only one of the better Italian places in Boston, but thanks to a bright space that feels like a C-Suite cafeteria and a location in the Seaport surrounded by law firms, tech companies, and startups, it’s a great spot to share a bolognese while discussing the future of viral marketing. If you’re with people who are off carbs, there’s a good selection of protein entrees too (get the pork milanese)." - dan secatore
