Casa Razdora on Water Street in Boston’s Financial District has been a city Italian pasta institution since it opened, building a menu around the hand-rolled pasta traditions of Emilia-Romagna — the Italian region that produces tagliatelle, tortellini, and the egg pasta that represents the gold standard of Italian noodle craft — with the kind of technique and from-scratch commitment that earns a Boston restaurant its national food media reputation. It appeared in Season 21, Episode 4 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Worldwide Flavorfest,” which aired September 26, 2014. Guy Fieri found a Boston Italian kitchen doing hand-rolled Emilian pasta with the authenticity and quality that earns a restaurant its place among the city’s most celebrated Italian dining destinations.

What to Eat
The Hand-Rolled Tagliatelle al Ragu — fresh egg pasta rolled by hand in the Bolognese tradition, served with a slow-braised meat ragu — is the signature that earns Casa Razdora its Boston Italian reputation and the dish that defines what Emilian pasta cooking means when done properly. The Tortellini in Brodo — the filled pasta in a rich capon broth that is one of the great dishes of Italian cuisine — is the item most serious pasta lovers seek out specifically. The Lasagna Bolognese with hand-made pasta sheets, ragu, and béchamel is the baked pasta classic that earns its own devoted following. Find a Boston hotel on Trivago.
