for the new customers and some of the regulars..

just to spare you or your guest of a trip to the ATM ,you'll have to know that both of the restaurants are CASH ONLY ,or the way one of the waiters likes to say it :"we like dead presidents!", with a little change in the Back Bay restaurant that do take checks...also...there's no reservations ,no valet parking ,no desserts in the North End restaurant...but you can make a reservation for the Back Bay restaurant , you can valet your car for 12 $ or you can sweeten up with desserts ...both restaurants do take-out the minute they open...
