Geppetto
About
Geppetto is a modern, dinner-only Northern Italian restaurant in Cambridge Crossing. Chef Gilson builds the menu around New England farms, fishers and foragers, starting meals with composed platters of cheese, cured meats and small bites, and the restaurant names its fried mozzarella as its favorite starter. Housemade pastas, local seafood and freshly butchered meats anchor the rest of the meal, which ends with desserts from the pastry team.
The restaurant drew early attention when Eater named it one of the hottest restaurant openings of 2021. Desserts have been led by pastry chef Brian Mercury, described as one of the city’s leading pastry chefs. Geppetto shares a loyalty program with two sister dining spots in Cambridge Crossing, so points earned at one can be redeemed at the others. The business is listed as Black-owned or Black-led by the East Cambridge Business Association.
