In the fall of 2002, after 17 years on Newbury Street, Davio's relocated to 75 Arlington Street. Handsomely filling the first floor of the legendary Paine Furniture Building in Park Square, the room's urbane sophistication remains true to the integrity of this landmark Back Bay structure while fulfilling owner Steve DiFillippo's restaurant wish list.
The space has allowed Davio's to build an enormous open kitchen backed with a bakery where both pastry chef and baker make all of the desserts and breads offered here. A temperature-controlled wine room holds more than 300 different bottles while two full-time wine stewards are employed.

Davios Northern Italian Steakhouse
Italian steakhouse pleases the Back Bay's high rollers with a classy atmosphere and high-end menu. - Eric Grossman
With its handsome, high-ceilinged dining room (complete with massive columns, 18-foot windows and a huge open kitchen), Davio's lays claim to having one of the city's most striking restaurant interiors. The welcoming bar area's couches and booths offer a comfy place for an after-work drink, as well as a good vantage point for spotting celebs. (The restaurant is a favorite of visiting athletes.) Attentive servers stay active while traversing the 9,000 square-foot room.
The Food
Davio's menu offers a most sophisticated take on Italian and steakhouse classics. While house favorites like a grilled porterhouse veal chop or lobster risotto with fresh asparagus impress gourmands, fussier diners can opt for divinely rich mac-and-cheese with white truffle oil or the bar menu's steak burgers and thin-crust pizzas. Sinful tiramisu and lemon panna cotta with caramelized pineapples make for delicious dessert options.
