The concept operates out of AquaPazza, a longtime North End Italian restaurant known for its seafood dishes, house-made pasta and traditional Italian fare. Located on Richmond Street, the restaurant has been a neighborhood staple for years and is part of the DePasquale Ventures restaurant group, which owns several dining spots across Boston.

Menu options include handmade spaghetti, rigatoni, gnocchi, fettuccine and more. Sauces include carbonara, pesto, vodka, bolognese and cacio e pepe. Add-ons include chicken cutlets, burrata, meatballs, shrimp and black truffle.
