Looking for a restaurant on Charles St. that i was at last year

[Andyboy]

Hi All,

I visited Boston last summer and ate at a very nice place on Charles St., I'm back again next weekend and would like to take my guest there again. Problem is I have forgotten the name and can't seem to find it on Google Street view. I'm hoping that it still exists and that someone knows the place that I am talking about. It is, i believe, on the west side of Charles street and is below ground, it was a little cozy Italian place that smelled wonderfully. it had a grotto feeling to it with rough walls and bottles and Chachkas displayed all around.

Thanks for any help,

Jason

Sounds like Artu, http://www.flickr.com/photos/thinkcouch/4646649600/lightbox/ , although it's on the east side of Charles. The other Italian / Italian-ish / Mediterranean restaurants on Charles (Toscano, Figs, Bin 26, Nino's, Panificio) aren't in basement spaces.
