“the oysters are out of sight! delicious bravo! bouillabaisse was amazing! I did like my server. I do suggest they get some sleep nobody was smiling.”
“Always great food! We always hit this spot when we are in or going through Boston!”
“Honestly some of the best Italian food and breakfast food I’ve had in Boston. Far better than anyplace I’ve eaten in the North End and the staff is super nice! Definitely am coming back many times in the future.”
“Attractive room. Great cuisine and wine list. Service was excellent, including host, who graciously sat us when we mistakenly arrived an hour earlier than our reservation. We will gladly return.”

“Very tasty food, great service. No reservations, first come first serve. Prices are not super inexpensive but it is worth the cost. We were only grabbing a snack as we had some commitment afterward. Only pitty is that it is difficult to share bites if you are like me and want to try it all. I guess we will have to come back! 😜
My favorite was the shrimp tempura, but the eel was great too.”

“Excellent lobster salad roll. Honestly, my favorite in Boston so far. Full of lobster and perfect bun. I also enjoyed the “Frozé” frozen drink. A great stop as you explore the seaport district.”

“Left another place to come here because the customer service was bad. What a 180. Citizen staff was friendly, great w/suggestions and helped secure me a seat at their busy bar. Had two great cocktails and a delicious pepper seared filet. Well done Citizen Pub!! I will be back!”
“THIS PLACE WENT FROM BEING ONE OF THE BEST GEMS TO A PLACE THAT FEELS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO EVEN SET A FOOT IN. I'VE BEEN TO THIS PLACE FOR OVER 10 YEARS, SINCE PANDEMIC HAVE NOT GONE. WE FINALLY WENT, THE MINUTE I WALKED IN THE PERSON AT CASHIER SAID WHEN YOUR READY TO ORDER YOU COME HERE, BLINDED BY IT AS IS A RESTAURANT NOT A FAST FOOD SPOT I LOOKED AT HER AND ASK FOR THE MENU SHE LOOKS AT ME AND POINTS INFRONT OF HER TO GO GET IT MIND YOU, THERE ARE 3 OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND HER WHO WORK THERE .....I LET IT PASS AND TRIED TO GIVE THIS PLACE A SECOND CHANCE COMING BACK THE FOLLOWING WEEK AS THE FOOD ACTUALLY WAS GOOD THE WEEK PRIOR. WELL SERVICE WAS ONLY WORSE THIS TIME AROUND, THE WOMAN AT CASHIER LOOKED BOTHER BY JUST BEING THERE TAKING OUR ORDER AS THE TIME PRIOR OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND HER WHO ALSO WORKED THERE STANDING JUST THERE. WE GET OUR FOOD REALIZING I GOT CORN TORTILLAS ASKED IF THEY CAN BE SWITCHED TO FLOURONE OF THE EMPLOYEES RESPONSE WELL IF YOU DON'T EAT THEM THERE GOING TO THE TRASH AND I AM LOOKING AT HER LIKE OKAY IS FINE CAN I PAY FOR AN EXTRA ORDER OF TORTILLAS OF FLOUR. THE AMOUNT OF DISPLEASSURE THESE WOMAN HAVE BEING THEIR IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY WHERE YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SERVED, ASIDE FROM THE FOOD FEELING SO RUSH THIS TIME AROUND AS WE GOT THERE AT 8 THEY CLOSED AT 10PM. I UNDERSTAND RESTAUTANT INDUSTRY IS NOT EASY BUT FOR ME TO GO TO AND SPEND MY MONEY IN A PLACE THAT FEELS SO FORCED TO WORK IS NOT WORTH MY TIME NOR MONEY.”
“We visited haley.henry on a Friday night around 5pm. The staff (starting with Hannah, then met Ann Marie, then Meg) was warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable. We sat at the bar and had the loveliest time. The atmosphere is warm and inviting.
The tinned tuna belly with toasted bread made us so happy and easily enough to come back for. The octopus in garlic and olive oil was insane, however. This is the place I'm coming back to every time I visit Boston. What a special place.”
“Went to get lunch when we got to Boston. Was close by our hotel and I love craft beer so was excited to try something local. Split the burger for lunch which was excellent. Tried three different beers and enjoyed each one. They didn’t do flights but do offer small pours so it made it easy to try different brews.
Venue was nice as well and easy to get to in the Seaport area.”

“Some good, some bad, but the good overall won out. Had an overnight layover in Boston during a multi-day train trip and I figured an all-night diner would be a good spot to while away some time. I have multiple disabilities and travel with a service dog. I rarely have any issues with this, so I was shocked when before entering I was told I couldn't bring her in, even once I explained that she is a service dog. Worse, the young man I spoke to asked to see "service dog papers," which is a major violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. When I explained that there are no such thing as service dog papers and began to explain the ADA regulations, he interrupted me, saying, "If you don't have any papers, I don't know what you expect me to do." Fortunately, at that moment, another server swooped in and told him that he was breaking the law and that if the owner had a problem with it he could take it up with her. She seated me, apologized, and took my order. The menu had a really nice selection of vegetarian breakfast options and the portobello benedict was quite good. Once I was seated, nobody hassled me and the server (who said she had recently graduated from law school and knew the ADA regulations) was really nice about the whole thing, apologizing honestly more than she needed to. Overall a good experience, but if you have any accessibility needs, be prepared for potential problems.”
“In August I took my mobility-challenged Dad to iHop for lunch. He used to go to this location frequently when starting his career, especially on the night shift, and has fond memories. We went at midday to avoid crowds. As we were crossing the flat parking lot (yay, thank you!) with me pushing his wheelchair, a car beeped and an iHop employee got out of her car to hold the door. She then left, but had stopped at the end of her shift to to help. Another employee inside immediately came and held another door. The staff was so kind and helped find a good comfortable spot. The food was delicious - and the coffee as good as always. It was the first time we didn't get breakfast food. My Dad loved the BLT and especially the onion rings. He got the senior sandwich which was perfect size and a good price for seniors. I had the chicken biscuit sandwich. I reluctantly saved a piece to bring home to my mom because I knew she'd love it so I wanted her to try. The service was impeccable. They were attentive but let us linger. My Dad enjoyed himself without feeling like he was holding anyone up. He doesn't like to go out a lot, due to mobility and memory challenges, but he had such a good time. Next time I'm home we will be back. Thank you for a great experience!”
“This chain coffee shop located outside North Station offers affordable and delicious coffee as well as a variety of donuts to choose from at affordable prices.

“Not sure why there are so many bad reviews as we found this parking garage to be just what we needed. It was close to our hotel (3 min walk) and the hotel wanted to charge $70 per day for valet so $80 with tip. PI Alley was only $28. Just scan QR code when entering and leaving. They clearly stated that you can't go in and out during the stay. As noted on other reviews it is a bit tight so may be challenging for large trucks and suv’s. We would certainly recommend.”
“The service there was outstanding, and the server was one of the nicest and most professional people I've ever met. I definitely plan to go back and specifically request her service again. Overall, the restaurant has the friendliest staff, and everyone treats you with respect and dignity.”
“This company fires employees over nothing, due to mangers latent laziness, and refusal to back up there emploees. a good bricklayer made about 350 in the early 1980's @ chubbs tequila bar your local 7 iron workers had there charter revoked in philidelpia, I wonder why the landmark doesn't have a social media”

“We were looking for breakfast that we could order ahead and would also be delicious. Sunny Girl fit the bill perfectly. We ordered our sandwiches en route and rhey were ready, waiting, and hot when we got there. It was early in the morning and we didn't hsve to wait long before we headed back out and on our way.
It was hard to take a great photograph while walking around, but I promise you the breakfast grilled cheese was delicious! Highly recommend.”

“10/10–same rating I would give Sarma! The mortadella app was fantastic (honestly I didn’t think I liked mortadella but this stuff melted in your mouth!!), and the cappelletti was unlike anything I have had before! The panna cotta was so special (we ordered all three desserts and they all were amazing!)! Everything was great!”
“Absolutely phenomenal meal and service. Very authentic! Highly recommend trying at least one of the specials (on any day!) and the Pappardelle alla Bolognese. Looking forward to returning!”
“Great experience, our waiter Brian gave us Great service and recommendations. The food was AMAZING! Steak melts in your mouth!”

“POE-LENTA RESTAURANT REVIEW:
Poe-lenta at the Time Out Market in 401 Park is a place that really impressed me. The portions were exactly right, filling without being overwhelming, and the flavors came together beautifully. Every bite felt balanced and carefully prepared, turning a simple dish into something memorable.
The service was outstanding. My food was ready within two minutes, which is incredibly fast, and the staff were genuinely kind and attentive. They even took the time to show me photos of the different meals before I ordered, which made the whole process much easier and more enjoyable. That kind of personal touch made the visit feel special.
One thing to keep in mind is that they only accept card payments, no cash, but for me that was a small detail in an otherwise excellent experience.
Overall Poe-lenta is absolutely worth trying if you are visiting Time Out Market or spending time around Fenway. Between the perfectly portioned dishes, the rich flavors, and the welcoming staff, it is the kind of spot you want to return to again and again.”
“This is an excellent restaurant 100% Greek food and drinks Excellent menu and service Nice vibe and atmosphere- tables inside and out (with heaters) Our daughter is coeliac and therefore cannot eat gluten. The staff were 100% up to speed with a marked up menu and awareness of cross contamination etc Well done p.s One tip for the owners - you have done all the work on GF - why not put the GF menu on the website or mark up the main menu and get the extra custom”
“Just had an okay meal here. Vibes and atmosphere were nice, but the food did not live up and we were disappointed with how long the end of the meal took. They were clearly short staffed, as we saw our server running around trying to help all of her tables and so we do not blame her—she was great! It just shouldn’t take 30 minutes to order dessert after receiving the menu. The meatballs and ham & cheese sandwich were my favorite, but still a 4/5.”
“I attended an event yesterday at this amazing Restaurant. The atmosphere is so inviting, the drinks were delicious. Food was absolutely scrumptious. And the staff all so kind and friendly. I highly recommend stopping in for a cocktail or dinner, you won’t be disappointed!!!”
“We accidentally met Chef Lester earlier in the day; ironically, we already made a reservation for my birthday dinner later that day, before this introduction. He mentioned the Pumpkin Risotto special and said when we returned to ask for him. The food was excellent and he personally came to our table to check on us. He then had our server bring us a beautiful platter of desserts, topping off an outstanding experience and birthday celebration! I will definitely be back!”
“Yummy! And dog friendly patio.”
Fine Dining
“The second we walked in we were met with amazing service. The staff is super pleasant, and helpful. They were able to accommodate a dietary restriction in my party with ease and enthusiasm. Every single dish in the chef’s tasting was fantastic. The food was full of flavor and the portions were a good size. I would come here any time any day, Chef/Owner Jen came to check in on us and chatted with us and was super nice. Love this place. Come here for a great time.”
“Sit at the counter and enjoy the best food in BOSTON and a show! This local chef is whipping up creative dishes in an immaculate kitchen that runs like a well oiled machine but with a laid back cool chill vibe. Hey Michelin this place should 100% be on your Bib Gourmand list!”
“We had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal at STK Boston. Plenty of food (turkey, stuffing, green beans, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, gravy) - all was delicious. Full menu was also available and one of my sons had the filet which was also excellent. Desserts were great too! Our waiter was Nathan and he was attentive, consistently checking in, and friendly. The vibe is always fun and upbeat - music, decorations for the holidays - nice ambiance.”
“Absolutely fine dining at fair market prices. The staff was brilliant, the food well prepared, and the atmosphere wonderful. There's not enough praise that I can heap on Atlantic Fish. We had the whole fish that came with sides topped with a fresh Guinness. Everything was expertly prepared. Dessert was through the roof. Great restaurant, attentive staff.”
“We had the absolute pleasure of dining at Mooo in Beacon Hill, and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere struck the perfect balance of upscale elegance and welcoming warmth. Our server, Jeffrey, truly went above and beyond to make our special occasion unforgettable. His attentiveness, genuine kindness, and thoughtful touches made the evening feel personalized and celebratory. To top it off, the manager stopped by our table with warm greetings, which added an extra layer of care and hospitality that you don't often find. The food was superb, every dish beautifully prepared. The filets were cooked to perfection, lobster amazing, and all the appetizers, sides and dessert!! We just kept eating and eating!! Combined with the flawless service and the lively yet refined vibe of the restaurant, it created the perfect dining experience. Mooo is the kind of place that turns a dinner into a memory. We left feeling incredibly impressed and grateful, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommend for any special occasion, or simply when you want the best of Boston dining.”
“Food was good, service really annoying coming to our table very 5 minutes. I understand you need to check on us but interrupting our conversation every 5 minutes makes it very uncomfortable.”

“We got the muffuletta sandwich and it was SPECTACULAR! It was a new sandwich for us…the bread was perfectly paired to the style of sandwich and fresh. The meats and cheese were delicious and the olive garnish and herbs enhanced this unique taste experience. We took the sandwich to go but the restaurant was clean and relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and fast service.”
“We made reservations online for the Omaska. It was $300 which broke down to $120 per person with tip and tax. The tables were perfectly space out. They gave us a 2 hour limit which was enough time for the 12 course Omaska. Presentation on everything was amazing. Each course was fresh and delicious in their own way. It was hard to hear the man over his mask so I couldn't get any names. We had uni, tuna belly, scallops, and more. All the Courses were small but packed with favor. You can take there was attention to detail in the ingredients and presentation. Definitely, worth the money was a special event like a birthday. Would definitely come back”

“one of the best meals we've had in a long time. highly recommend.”
“We are doing a world cruise on the Coral Princess and went to Yankee Lobster for lunch. It was absolutely delicious, heaps of lobster in the roll and fries too. My hubby had a roast chicken sandwich with fries and a Fresh Lobster Ale as well and he loved it. We had a recommendation from our tour guide and a taxi concierge... so we knew it had to be good when the locals say to go there. I forgot to show our waiter the photo I took of him, so I hope he sees it here.. Thank you 10/10 gor food and service.”

“We booked the private dining area and had a great experience. Service was great and we were not rushed at all. Food and drinks were good and the overall booking process with Zoey was easy and transparent.”
“A quintessential North End Italian experience. Small and intimate without being claustrophobic. Great food. Easily shareable portions. Noise level loudish but expected. Attentive service without being overwhelming. Second floor location gives you a perspective of being hidden. Watch the stair rail — you can get pinched. Would absolutely dine there again.”
“This place is truly phenomenal. From the presentation to the balance of the drinks, everything was superb. Saul was very knowledgeable and was able to cater to everyone’s needs, and this place is so unique. Couldn’t recommend enough!”

The incredibly friendly staff sang me happy birthday, and even gave me a small gift! What more could I ask for?”

Our server was top-notch,very attentive, friendly and made excellent recommendations. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a special occasion.

“First time to Mistral, celebrating my wife's birthday. We enjoyed a terrific dinner, from the food thru the service, and the ambiance. We will definitely return as well as share the experience with friends.”
“I was there at Jian Nan Syosset, Long Island. Everything went great!! But, those took the orders needed to be more educated to understand each dishes. We were a fairly larger group than standard party size. Some dished were small and some dim sum served with small quantities, like 3 or 4. Those who order for the large group, should give suggestion to order multiple orders for the same dish. So, each one in the group can have at least one.”
“We celebrated my husband’s birthday here last night. My steak was amazing. The service was excellent. We had a wonderful time thanks to the professional staff!!!”
“North End -Boston. Amazing food! Quick service! You won’t be disappointed! If there is a wait… stay! You will be happy you did! Can’t wait to get back!”

“We were just across-the-board street from the restaurant. We had had a full day and were tired. Ordered here for pickup and they were right on time and the food was just right for tired bodies. The shrimp was cooked fabulous with the right amount of seasoning and the spinach salad was fresh and delicious. Thank you.”
“the service is a bit slow. However, this can be attributed to the fact that Cool Shade's quality of food is fresher than its competitors. The quality comes out it the taste of the food. The dining area is small and cozy. If the service can be improved the restaurant would be around for a long time.”
“Heidi’s House of Coffee is an Oasis in a Food Court full of Fast Food corporate types of restaurants. The coffee is great, pastries are great, and the service from Heidi is second to none. Everything is individualized to your liking. Start your day with a friendly hello, the best coffee, and a genuine smile. You won’t go wrong. Dave”

“Kudos to Chris our awesome waiter yesterday. He was very helpful with describing their menu as I have an unusual food allergy. He confirmed with the Chef my concerns and I had a delicious meal. The petite lobster roll was the best ever! Highly recommend this restaurant and hopefully your waiter is Chris.”
“My wife and I visited Bricco during our first trip to Boston, and let me tell you, it was amazing! Top notch service provided by Manuel Machuca - He was outstanding, and incredibly helpful. The food was upscale and delicious and the atmosphere cozy, inviting, and perfect for date night.”
“Wonderful dinner at Riccardo's! Soft fresh bread dipped in seasoned olive oil to start Followed by Pollo Exquisito for two of our party, which was delicious! Husband had lobster ravioli which he really enjoyed. Excellent service all around. We would definitely go back!”
“We had a really nice mid-day lunch. Eataly was relatively uncrowded(!) and the restaurant was not jammed. I don't know if the experience would be the same on much busier days. As it was, the appetizers and main pasta dishes were excellent, and there is an excellent choice of wines by the glass and other alcoholic drinks. The dining room sits in an atrium, so the day time experience is light and airy. We told the server at the beginning of the meal that we needed to leave for the symphony, and he paced the meal very well, and was attentive throughout. A little pricey, but it was a nice mid-day treat with a good glass of Etna rosso.”

“We had a wonderful dinner a Mai during their soft opening. The foods good. The service amazing and overall a great night out. We tried a variety of hand rolls and some apps. The fish is definitely high quality in the hand rolls. Our favorites are the Akami, toro, Salmon, spicy tuna and the Duck Foie Gras”
“Great start to what can become an amazing cocktail spot! The decor and vibes are great. The space is small but not loud or overcrowded. Drinks were very well balanced. We came as walkins shortly after they opened on a thursday and waited about 40 mins so resys are definitely recommended .
Overall a great addition to the neighborhood my only complaint is not having a full bar and only have flavored spirits. the bar tender mentioned that full bar would be coming within the year so looking forward to coming back for a true gin martini.”
“I honestly can't say enough great things about this hidden gem, the service was spot on from start to finish! Every cocktail was creative, delicious, and thoughtfully paired with their accompanying food. The bartenders were friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel fun and relaxed. It was the perfect spot to celebrate a birthday, we’ll definitely be back!”
“My love for friends truly made me love this place more. I got the banana bread chai latte and the chicken noodle soup and it was AMAZING. Not only was the food amazing but the workers were all so kind and even told me if I did not like the chai I could get something else. The cafe is gorgeous and just encompasses friends completely. I 1000% recommend for anyone going.”
“PJ went above and beyond to take care of us! It was a beautiful night and the food was fantastic! Every thing we ate was wonderful. The Cesar salad is unreal and covered in cheese and bread crumbs, what more can you ask for?? And you’re missing out if you don’t get the honey buns 🤤 Our waitress was so sweet and attentive even though it was a packed Friday night. thank you to the whole team for making us feel special!

“Fine pastries made by chef Sharif and his team… great espresso with a French vibe all the way down to the bistro chairs and marble top tables situated in a picturesque cobblestone alley overhung by ivy and beautiful trees. Portsmouth’s greatest hidden gem that everyone seems to know about.”
“Tried this spot for the first time tonight, not expecting much, but the vibes were high and the food was bomb. Chicken was insanely good. Shoutout our gorgeous waitress Sarah. Totally on top of service and super friendly, really made the experience memorable. Will be back.”
“Dave’s Hot Chicken – Boston Visit (May 2025)
I recently had the pleasure of trying Dave’s Hot Chicken in Boston, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations!
From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. A special mention to the lady who took our order, an absolute gem of a person, who set the perfect tone for what turned out to be a fantastic meal.
The chicken? Absolutely awesome. Juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor. We sampled the full spice range—extra hot, hot, medium, and mild, and each one delivered. The extra hot was just right for me, with a bold kick that didn’t overwhelm. The spice blend was spot-on, adding a delicious complexity to every bite.
I had tried Dave’s once before in Dubai and wasn’t particularly impressed. But this Boston experience? A complete game-changer—and totally worth the extra heat.”
“We stumbled on the amazing restaurant and stopped in twice while on vacation in South Boston! The food was unbelievable and the service was fantastic! 👏🏼 This is going to be our go to spot every time we make our annual trip to Boston. Love the local vibe and the chef and owner, Asia, was hand on and personally brought out the food she so skillfully prepared!! HIGHLY recommend Moonshine 152! 💕@chefasiamei”
