“You can roll a D20 to get a mystery drink, and the concotuons we got were very good but wild. One was the spiciest drink ive ever had. The food here is fantastic, but the plates are small. The restaurant itself is even smaller, so you'll need a reservation to eat.100% would go again.“

“At Barcelona and it has been amazing. I visit the Atlanta location often but they do not have Elizabeth. Found out that the company trained her for a Manager role and I think it was the best decision they could have made. She should write a book on the service industry and how to do it right. I am thankful for the experience and her time at this location. #winebar #goodservice #boston #bostonfoodies #bostonstrong“

“Although none of the dishes blew me away flavor-wise, this is solid place for seafood tapas in the South End. We went with a large group, so got to try several small plates on the menu. Main thoughts on the food are: - Calamari and patatas bravas were the standouts. Would definitely recommend. - Both the clams and mussels appeared to made with a similar sauce, so could have just gotten one or the other without missing out on much. Also, the sauces had a noticeably butter-y taste. - Meatballs were small, tough, and so tightly packed that none of the sauce could permeate inside. Would skip. - Hamachi and salmon crudo were both fresh and well-presented, but had similar citrus flavors so again could have just gotten one or the other. - Cauliflower was not particularly memorable or unique, would skip. - Mushrooms were tender, but made with vinegar. This take was unique, but I was personally not a fan. Overall, this is a cute place to go with friends. Service, decor, presentation, portion sizes, and food quality were all great. Just didn't have that extra oomph of flavor to make me excited about coming back again. 3.5 stars“

“I had a fantastic time here! The hospitality was great, the food was excellent, and the atmosphere delivered a very Southern feel, particularly because of the music choices which were big band and Dixieland type of tunes. I also had fantastic company, and that counts for a lot of the experience, in my view.“

“Very unassuming from the outside but very cool interior with a spacious dining room and large bar! We got there 2 minutes after they opened and I'm glad we did because by 1130 the place was packed! They gave us fair warning if we were going to have the spuflee pancakes then they are going to take a little time to cook and you should place orders for them as soon as you know. They weren't kidding as it was about 35 minutes from ordering until our dishes arrived but it was well worth the wait! Everything was absolutely delicious the fluffy pancakes soaked up all the strawberry creme freche making for a burst of flavor with every bite. Wonderful job team!“

“Was here with a friends for a bday dinner. It was absolutely delicious from drinks to mains and to dessert. We had their private room and it was so great to make all the noise in there. Totally recommend everything but our favorites was the croquettes, patatas bravas, shrimp in garlic and the salad. But totally do the omakase pre doze meal they have. Let them do all the thinking. Sit back and drink and stuff your face. Can't wait to go back. Service was phenomenal too!!“

“Visiting Boston and came as here was recommended by local. It’s a great place to visit. Food is great, had the best bone marrow, and the foie gras is definitely recommendable. service is busy but good, atmosphere is great.The only thing is it was freezing and we both got sick. The backyard outdoor patio is still freezing though there are Mr heaters near the wall outlets. The heat wasn’t strong enough at all to cover the area. Would only go again if got in door seating in winter.“

“Almost perfect. Really cute lil spot in Southie. Can’t seem to decide if they want to commit to being upscale or not. Certainly priced at the higher range. The food and cocktails (mostly) live up to the price, but feels like service and decor don’t quite match up. Would love it if Petula’s was a bit more affordable to make it a regular go-to spot, but for now it remains a worthwhile indulgence.Vegetarian options: Great for pescatarian. Veggie options, but not a lot well balanced with protein.“

“I went here for the Saturday hot chocolate experience. It was very confusing and disorganized to figure out how to get seated. We were waiting in a cluster/line but there was no host to facilitate the seating. I think it was self seating? And then the service was very very slow. The interior was gorgeous and the hot coco was cute and fun. I think if they were more well staffed this experience would have been better.“

He gave us great recommendations on what to try and what would pair well with what we had ordered. My wife is vegetarian so he was even able to give us the veggie options that weren't on menu.The meatballs are extremely good and the citrus salad was so yummy. The pizza was light and crispy.The location itself is small but very cozy. A good cocktail and wine list as well. I would highly recommend this place for food!“

Getting a drink is exactly what you expect with this crowd. Not easy especially on nice days. People working seemed to be pleasant and hustling though!“

The crepes on the lunch menu and lattes are amazing.Kid-friendliness: It’s not loud like most Southie restaurants/bars and they have plenty of room for a stroller or anything needed to accommodate kids.“
