My friend Nicholas and I went to Dom's a couple years ago, after a
long, long hiatus. The guy sat down and (not recognizing us, as neither of
us had been there since his father [?] ran the joint) rather superciliously
gave us a bunch of incredibly palate-dead recommendations. We nodded
politely and ordered what we would have ordered anyhow. The food was
somewhat less than what it had been under Toni-Lee back in the 1970s
when it was the preeminent Italian restaurant in Boston; the rest of the
North End has since caught up and well surpassed it, so we haven't been
again. Terramia (where nobody cozies up to you at your table) is so
much better than Dom's I can't articulate it, and there are now places
nearby that are better still.
