The restaurant brings another elevated dining experience to the North Shore, with a menu that highlights fresh seafood, handmade pastas, wood-fired pizzas and traditional Italian entrees. Early favorites include the squid ink frutti di mare, grilled branzino and a signature bistecca alla fiorentina.

Palazzo’s bar crudo features oysters, clams, jumbo lump crab and shrimp cocktail, while antipasti selections such as baked clams, grilled zucchini and bruschetta offer lighter starters. A rotating selection of Italian wines and craft cocktails complement the menu.
