Encore by Goodfellas Authentic Italian Cuisine

This month, you simply must dine at Encore by Goodfellas. Led by Owner Gerry Iannaccone, the State Street staple has more than 50 years of culinary experience and serves some of the best Italian food in the city. Don’t just listen to us, take it from Gerry.

“Much of my culinary influence comes from the region of Italy and from my late mother, Maria Iannaccone. I am completely self-taught and have worked in the restaurant industry since I was a teenager. The biggest thing I’ve learned in all my years is that the ingredients are key. Fresh ingredients are the hallmark of a great menu. Speaking of a great menu, time is running out for diners to taste our winter seasonal dishes – stuffed mushrooms, stuffed artichokes, and pork shank osso buco. We welcome you in our restaurant, and our advice? Take a seat at the bar, meet the local regulars, and enjoy.”
