Restaurants in Boston

“Asia Mei is easily one of the best Chefs in Boston. I've eaten here several times, but I can't believe that I haven't written a review before now! My husband and I had brunch at moonshine 152 last weekend and told friends about it. Next thing you know, the four of us were in there around noon time today having brunch again. We shared three starters, alongside sharing all four entrées and everything, I mean everything was to die for! Ms Asia herself delivered some of our plates and she is just as delightful as she is talented. Needless to say, dinner is amazing here as well. The vibe in the restaurant is so easy and you can tell that the staff get along very well together. What I can't believe is how this place wasn't fully packed today or last weekend even. Definitely a good amount of patrons, but I've had brunch at places that are hard to get into and left much less satisfied.”

“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.”

“Delicious food and beautiful atmosphere”

“The Dungeon Master Roll the Dice”

“I love the wine and food but the service provided here has been so special the two times I've gone! My first time the bartenders chatted with us and were hilarious the entire time. The second our server was amazing and educational and patient, as we had limited knowledge of wines. They even ran after me through the street when I left a flower I'd been carrying behind! So sweet. I don't know your name but thank you to the first wine slinger pictured on the website!”

“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!”

“A very good find for excellent Thai food. The flavours were spot on. Careful about the level of heat you can handle.
Make sure to order your appetizers first only. Order your mains only after, otherwise everything arrives at the same time and in no particular order.”

“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.”

“Perfect place for Mothers Day when Valet is a must!”

“Dining in a cozy yurt surrounded by freshly fallen snow was fun winter experience for our family. Great ambiance, and the food and service were exceptional. Highly recommend for a unique and memorable outing!”

“My husband and I had dinner last Sunday night. It was a beautiful experience with impeccable service. I am going to remember my quail dish for a very long time. Highly recommend”

“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”

“food was amazing. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥”

“Pazza is AMAZING! Great service and the food is incredible. Highly recommend!”

“Bartender James was the best! Thanks for the recommendation!!”

“I loved the outside patio area vibe with the music, nice weather, great service from our server Charlie who was super attentive, and of course the food and drinks were amazing!”

“Very Energetic! Bartender was fantastic”

“Great Yemeni and Mediterranean food”

“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.”

“I wish Bova's Bakery are coming in Oroville, California”

“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!”

“bellissimo posto , location splendida e di un certo livello ,piatti italiani e non , curati nella presentazione , materie prime eccellenti ,ampia scelta di vini . consiglio vivamente ! .ps. personale preparato e attento alle esigenze del cliente.”

“I work at the hospital and I don’t know what we would do without Panera as it is 24/7. They are so kind and the service is amazing. They also have healthy choices and the breakfast are amazing!”

“favorite spot for ice 🧊coffee ☕”

“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.
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.”

“Best burger king this side of the railroad I'll tell you that much”

“Lightening fast despite a long line. I was impressed by how quickly the team worked together and was getting orders out. Never seen a Dunkin operating so smoothly.”

“Bien,bueno pero para más tranquilidad, de los clientes,debieran de controlar,los estudiantes..van haciendo mucho escándalo, uno no puede comer tranquilo,pensando que hasta armas podrían sacar...”

“This place is amazing!! The customer service was top notch!!”

“Delicious pizza. One slice is actually two huge slices! Affordable prices. Will visit again.”

“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.”

“Ambiance and ambiance and beer and beer”

“A treasure of a restaurant on busy Cambridge St - walk through the door and you’re in a different world. Servers quickly become friends. Great spot for a romantic dinner for two but still a place where a solo diner feels welcome. Wonderful menu with choices for the adventurous and not so adventurous eater. My new favorite spot for lunch or dinner in Boston.”

“Loved the Texas brisket sandwich. Delicious. Nice atmosphere.”

“Delicious food and great ambiance! We will come back!”

“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.”

“Great experience, our waiter Brian gave us Great service and recommendations. The food was AMAZING! Steak melts in your mouth!”

“I love it there my first time there and the staff’s were amazing and I did enjoy everything”

“The food is excellent and the staff are extremely friendly. My favorite dish is the Isshindo ramen - the broth, noodles, egg and pork are delicious - you can’t go wrong ordering this! I highly recommend giving this place a try :)”

“Piatti buoni e curati , cucina meditteranea ben interpretata”

“Fantastic breakfast! Best in Boston hands down.”

“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!”

“The pizza was fantastic and the atmosphere was great. Regina's North End”

“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.”

“Better Sorts is a great spot to hang out. The decor is great, it’s chill, and the drinks and snacks are great. The space is beautiful and the details, like glassware and cocktail accessories, are top notch. Hidden gem I. Downtown Boston!”

“First time in the city and this was an amazing dinner for us. The food is delicious.”

“The food was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!! Perfect for a special occasion.”

“Good food, great prices & friendly service! 👌”

“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.”

“By far the best, authentic Italian food in the North End. We have dined at several restaurants but the service, ambience and food is the best! They make their own pasta and sauces daily. I cannot recommend Casarecce enough. Delicioso.”

“The soup broth is amazing. Get the spicy and tomato soup. The meat is also very good and fresh. They have very nice ingredients and sauces, you should really try the all you can eat.”

“Incredible! I dine here all the time.”

“Grilled Clams make it so worthwhile”

“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.”

“It’s da bomb. If you are ever in the area, don’t miss it ✌🏼♥️😎”

“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!”

“This is really awesome🥰🥰”

“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.”

“Food was amazing! The staff was friendly and attentive…. Will definitely be back!”

“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.”

“This was an exceptional experience! Watching such highly trained, talented chefs was a real treat. Each course was utterly delicious and a work of art! Highly recommend for a special occasion.”

“Sleek ambience, fresh and creative dishes and attentive service make it perfect for a special night out. Must visit for sushi lovers!”

“Absolutely amazing!! I can’t wait to go back.”

“Love it! Ingredients were fresh and the sushi rice was delicious! Will definitely return 😋”

“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.”

“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.”

“We had a wonderful night. Food was delicious, the room was beautiful and the service was impeccable. Special thanks to our server Sebastian who was knowledgeable, attentive, and pleasant.”

“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.”

“Wonderfully perched atop the Newbury, views of the Public Garden. Chic, delicious, always an incredible time.”

“We had a wonderful evening at Moo Seaport. The establishment was really cool, like a real hotspot in the seaport area. The wine selection was great. I had the Japanese A5 Wagyu Kagoshima Prefecture - and it was PERFECT... perfectly prepared and perfectly seasoned. Love this cut of beef. My wife had the American Wagyu filet...unfortunately it was a bit overcooked - ordered medium but came very medium well. That was the only down point of the night. The sides were great - the tater tots were like yummy croquettes in a tater packaging. The broccolini was perfectly done. We were too full for dessert - though there were some good options. All in all, we shall be back!”

“It matches the hype. The Sicilian Pizza is…perfect. There’s not enough superlatives to do it justice and if there were, even then it wouldn’t reach hyperbole. Craziest thing of it all is the pricing. Four slices, arancini, and a drink for $16.00? How? In today’s economy how are they keeping the price this low? Also amazing. Just go. Don’t think about it, don’t pass go, don’t collect $200…go get your dang perfect slice.”

“If you want a family atmosphere and to feel at home, eat here. They were incredibly kind and generous to our young family. They loved our kids and made their morning so special. We went home smiling and wishing we never left that atmosphere. Thank you so much!”

“Coffee, Baklava, and most importantly the unique experience of being able to peer into arguably Boston’s coolest full-service motorcycle shop. If you’re there you might even get a sneak peek at some of the Madhouse teams latest projects!!!”

“Awesome pizza.. huge slice”

“Ron’s is truly a hidden jewel, the ice cream is amazing and you’re going to love the bowling alley.”

“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.”

“10/10 experience! Great coffee and breakfast. Love the vibe of the atmosphere!”

“The food here was very good.
My husband ordered the carnitas tacos and enjoyed them. I opted for the chicken nachos and found them to have a good amount of cheese and meat on them. It was also a decent sized portion.”

“Food was amazing! Happened upon this while touring Boston and loved it so much, we came back the next day for more. Small space, and serve your own drinks, but the food is worth it. We had their garlic bread, burger, fries, baked ziti and pizza.”

“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”

“Lovely spot, thoroughly enjoyed my fish & chips, the DJ was also great!”

“The best IRISH ☘️ bar in Boston! 💚☘️ Mary Ann Love 💚 you guys!”

“Some of the best pizza I've had in Boston. I didn't have to wait long despite being a walk-in, and the owners were very friendly. The Four Cheese was stellar 👌🏼”

“Good banh mis, would highly recommend taking it to go for a picnic. The beef, pork, and tofu were all flavorful and the ratio of ingredients was right.

The jalapeños were for some reason super spicy. Nice staff and cool vibe inside”

“The food and coffee are delicious! They are quick to take your order and get your order out to you. The tables are wobbly. I found if you step on the base of the table it makes eating on them easier. Overall good experience.”

“This restaurant is amazing. Exceptional service, food, and atmosphere. Great architecture and historic design.”

“Owner influenced exceptional warm friendly atmosphere with pleasant service and neighborhood charm. Excellent pastries highlighted by out of universe blueberry muffins (that go fast). Good food constantly attended to by owner. Feel good place.”

“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.”

“Incredible! I dine here all the time.”

“Delicious food and great service”

“Great place to buy fresh fish. They also have some fresh vegetables. The salmon is just excellent.. Highly recommend.”

“They have an amazing and fresh falafel I've ever had in Boston!”

“Had a blast. Servers are the best. Singing doorman is so entertaining. Great vibe.”

“We had a delicious lunch on Saturday the 26th. Chicken Quesedilla and guacamole were so flavorful. Very friendly service.”

“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.”

“Hi , I went for lunch and Jesus Morales was a very friendly employee he greet me and serve me well his a good customer service person .”

“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”

“A hidden gem in Dorchester ! One of those spots you’ll easily become a regular.”

“Friendly service with awesome sushi. Best around town.”

“its a pretty good place, I really had a nice time”

“Amazing food and atmosphere!”

“we had a wonderful experience all around on a busy Sunday. The manager, Russ, greeted us with a warm smile, setting the tone for a great evening. we sat outside and Jorge F, took great care of us. He was prompt but we never felt rushed. the food was excellent, the Lobster cones are a great new item. we also had the classic mussels. The grilled salmon was delicious. Russ was leading his team through a busy shift but was able to make time to ensure everything was just right. The best in the Seaport.”

“We were celebrating our 16th anniversary and my retirement, and wanted to do it up right! We picked the right place for it. Coming in from Cape Cod, for a concert at Fenway we had reservations for Abe and Louie’s, but there were 2 at the bar so they let us sit there instead of our table. Our bartenders were great. To our surprise, Bree almost immediately said “Happy Anniversary!” And our drink order was taken. Michelle made a spicy margarita with a nice kick and a heavy glass, and a soda. Then we ordered shrimp cocktail which were brought out in mere moments. The shrimp were huge and cold and crunchy- perfect! We took our time and were not rushed to order our meal, but once we did, with Kendal, she asked all the right questions, offered to split our salad in the kitchen, and made some great recommendations. I wanted my Filet with their wedge salad as my entree and was told no problem. Our meal, my huge filet and my man’s ribeye were both cooked as requested and his suggested garlic whipped potatoes were creamy and yummy! The food was all out of this world, but what made the dining a true experience was the tango these three women danced around each other, each knowing what the other was doing and exactly what their patrons wanted. You can get a great filet many places but I pay for the service and we both felt like we were treated like royalty. Thank you Bree, Kendal and Michelle for making our anniversary and my retirement a true celebration!!”

“Food was delicious. Our waitress Rita was incredible! She made the experience memorable.”

“Went there on a Sunday night for the jazz music. Great food ! Great service and definitely try the Queen Bee. Highly recommended”

“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.”

“Linzy was exceptional! She opened our lobsters, no work involved for us. Thank you!”

“Awesome app's and excellent wine menu. All beef is grass fed. One of the best restaurants that I've been to.”

“Had to visit as we were in Boston x”

“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!”

“Exceptional service and superb food and drink! Very cozy and comfy atmosphere!”

“Had burger, beet salad & wings, all was very good”

“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.”

“It was great places and I love this service because the waiters is very nice”

“I’ve wanted to go this place and made it in the late lunch on Saturday during my short trip to Boston. The hospitality was nice to offer the best seat available at that time with recommendations on food and wine. Great quality of time.”

“The Hummus shop has four main options that can be served three different ways. Not a ton of options but they definitely taste great! Falafel was crispy, staff was attentive and kind, and as a bonus we got free stickers!”

“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!”

“Food
is amazing, i got the salmón roll, great flavor, for drink i got the Soju Aperol Spritz. Jonathan is one of the best bartender. Perfect atmosphere, highly recommended!!!”

“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!
-the revere bandits”

“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.”

“This place is amazing. Brought 20 teenagers here and had them feed and out the door in 30 minutes. The food was so good. The Boston Slice was the best!!! The owners were so friendly too.”

“Our maître d'hôtel, Mimi, was perhaps the best hostess I've had the pleasure of meeting in Boston. Thank you for a wonderful evening. Steak was extraordinary.”

“Delicious, high quality pizza that uses fresh ingredients. They do half or full pies, which is great for mixing and matching. They also have great home-made cookies and icecream sandwiches”

“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.”
