“ Love this restaurant! The food is excellent and the service is phenomenal. We discovered this restaurant on our last visit to Boston and had to go back this time. It's expensive, but well worth it. Must try the warm chocolate chip cookies for dessert. They're exceptional! “

“What an amazing place. In these times when we are still not comfortable dining indoors this place rocks. The chef behind these dishes knows a thing or two about bringing beer garden food to a totally new level. Thank you chef and staff in front of the house.“

“Had the fixed price menu which was superb. The Boef in particular was perfectly cooked and incredibly tasty. The accompanying Rhone blend GSM was reasonably priced and was excellent. Service was impeccable and the ambiance was superb. All in all a memorable dinner experience.“

“As always our meal at Dovetail was spot on. I had the snapper and my wife the scallops. Bother dishes were thoughtfully prepared, attractive and very tasty. We've been fans for years and have never been disappointed in our meals at Dovetail or their sister restaurant, Brewers Fork.“

“We came from Chicago to explore Boston. After we visited Bunker Hill, we were looking for a place to hide from the rain. The only place that was close was the "Brewer's Forks". Honestly we were pretty skeptical at first, but we were extremy delighted by the very tasy, delicious food and warm and nice atmosphere. We loved it so much that we decided to stop by the next day again before we went to the airport! We met Jeorge and Kyle who are very professional, polite and nice guys. They helped us choose from their very interesting and outstanding pizza flavors. We have never tried such delicious pizza before. Also the big variety draft beers was very impressive. I would recommend everyone to visit this place. Delicious and authentic food all made fresh at the restaurant, professional stuff and warm atmosphere, everything that you need to feel good!!!“

“Excellent menu (and preparation) for those who are looking for something beyond typical Italian. Wonderful ambiance and table arrangement. Great place for a romantic dinner or two "best friends" couples; there's a feeling of intimacy about the place. I would not necessarily recommend it for large parties.“

“First timer but won't be my last. Ambiance was cool. This particular Sunday was quiet...just a few patrons. Small but super cute. Service was great. Very attentive and polite. The menu selection was a little limited but we made do. Not your typical brunch but still had the big players like pancakes and a breakfast that consisted of eggs, pancake and home fries. When the plates came out we were a bit surprised at the amount of food but it was the “perfect” amount. We left satisfied.“

“Always a delicious meal prepared and served by a great team. If you like watching how the magic happens, book the chef's counter. And order the crispy chickpeas to start--delicious. We had a toasted farro pasta with deliciously earthy mushrooms and the wild boar bolognese. The fennel salad and chicken liver mousse were scrumptious.“

“When visiting a French restaurant expectations are high. The food tends to be exquisite and some dishes are here. The Foie Gras is amazing and so are all the deserts we tried. However the escargot which is something I always try at French restaurants was only ok.The service varies on who your server is as we had friends who came to the restaurant after we sat and we ordered before they even got their menus and yet they had their appetizers first. When looking for someone to call for a refill and even when we wanted the menus for desert, it is very difficult to catch anyone looking at your table as if each waiter will only look at their own table only. On the bright side they brought us water as soon as we sat and refilled it often. That is how I would get someone's attention...finish my water so someone could come by and I could ask for something.The place is very small and you will have to be a party of two and be lucky to get a table without a reservation, which is what happened with our friends..who came in a little after we sat and were hoping they could sit with us, but with such little space it seemed unlikely they would even be able to get a table but as they were asking a table for two was leaving.Its rather on the expensive side which can be understood with the quality of some of the dishes, however I would except everything to be great for these prices.Its a good place with potential to be great.“

“This was a really good restaurant. Very authentic Italian cuisine. Food was all amazing. Jeff, our waiter was the nicest most cordial man I've ever met has a very sociable personality. He gave us good recommendations on what to order and was very accommodating. You could close your eyes and point to any random dish on this menu and you will NEVER be disappointed. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone.“

“stuffed cabbage (rice + pork) smothered in tomato sauce. middle — grilled kielbasa on a bed of ‘bigos’ aka hunters stew (fresh & cured meats + mushrooms + sauerkraut) right — variety of boiled pierogis + caramelized onions & bacon bits. everything deserves the ‘chefs kiss’ rating. this is a sampler type plate, but it was the perfect dinner that day.“

“My boyfriend and I came here on Friday night with an 8:30pm reservation. From the reviews and photos it looks like a nice spot but when we came in we were greated and served by Ayla… she’s amazing… request her everytime. She knew exactly what we were looking for and curated the experience for us. I will never come back to Boston without coming here and requesting Ayla. Amazing must go to!!!“

“This was my second visit to prima to celebrate a special event with my daughter on a miserable rainy Thursday night. The restaurant was packed and initially thought we would need to wait an hour for a table . We proceed to the bar where we were seated almost immediately! Darren was our bartender. He was pleasant and attentive. Our food was brought quickly and was absolutely delicious ! Scott the manager introduced himself as a table had become available and I appreciated that personal introduction. After our yummy meal, our bartender surprised us with a complimentary dessert to celebrate our special night . I was so impressed!! Again another wonderful experience at Prima!!“

“Capital Grill is consistently good, however Peter our server took it to a new level. He treats guests like family, goes way above and beyond. He doesn’t miss a detail and makes you feel special. We even thanked the manager in the way out. It didn’t end there, a minute later at my car - out comes Peter to bring out my coat that I forgot. Peter is as good as it gets.“

“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“

“This is one of our favorite restaurants! The food and service are fantastic. Dan, John & Tony bring it every time - they are the A-Team! Last night we tried the “Meaty” Mushrooms and it was excellent! Mixed Fat Moon mushrooms, miso-roasted gilfeather turnips, herb-butter pan sauce, parsnip puree, crispy onion. I am a lover of wild mushrooms, and this dish is one of the best I’ve had. I love how they use farm fresh foods and change up their menu accordingly.“

“The service was excellent! The custom menu to commemorate my daughter's birthday was such a nice touch. The entrees were phenomenal! Everyone loved their food. calamari, shrimp cocktail, several filets some with lobster tails, some with crab meat, some sliced filets, lobster mac and cheese, chicken, and salad with chicken. The cheesecake was delicious as well.“

“After cruising around for parking for nearly 30 mins, the bartender was generous enough to allow me to park in their lot in an illegals spot and not have me towed. I had called and he could hear the stress in my voice since the rest of my party had already been seated. Upon walking in late, he immediately came over and poured me a complimentary glass of one of the most delish glasses of French red wine idea ever had. The food and service was top notch. EVERYONE that worked there was incredibly knowledgeable, nice, and just seemlessly working together to ensure we were taken care of. Hands down one of the best dining experiences I've had in years based on the quality of service and creative dishes. 1,000/10 recommend!“

“Wow. Wow. Wow. Honestly blew us away. I’m a classic pizza person however, we went for the ramen pizza and I have zero regrets. Amazing food. Amazing atmosphere. Insanely wonderful service. If you go, and he’s available, ask for Danni. He will give you the most honest recommendations while also making you feel right at home. A truly wonderful experience.“

“Pleasant ambiance, nice playlist. The hot waffles are yummy! But get them out of the paper very quickly or you'll be eating some of that paper glued by the sugar... Coffee wasn't "the best" in Boston, but it's smooth. Only issue was (the lack of) the space. It's very small and the few tables were hoarded by people on their laptops...“

“Ok let me be clear this is a very fun little spot. The charcuterie is next level, well sourced selection you’re gonna be hard pressed to find, BUT when we were seated a waiter reached over me at the bar twice to mess with some small glasses, first time fine whatever, second time he dropped the glass in front of me and it shattered absolutely everywhere. There were tiny pieces all over me, he was super apologetic and luckily there was no food in front of me yet, but I’m disappointed nothing further was done about it. He wasn’t our server. Our servers name was Peter, and HE was an absolute delight. I would go there again just to small talk him. He made the experience fun. Will still go again because we dream about the honeycomb and cheeses.“

“Seriously the best Italian food I’ve had yet in Boston, I prefer Ravellos to most places in the North End. Short Rib Ravioli is unreal, food is fairly priced for Boston, and the quality they deliver is unmatched. We live down the street and prefer to come here whenever eating Italian. 15/10 stars for this “

Couldn’t name a better place in Southie, let alone Boston. Dates, family visits, drinks with friends - bring them all here and make sure you ask for Gwynne and give a shout to Miles (get the pickles)! Will be back ASAP“

“Fantastic experience with our server Loraine. Our party of 4 opted to try their classic tapas style dining for $55 per person. WOW. We left so full and satisfied! This is the best way to try several classic dishes, the seafood paella and churros. All of the dishes were excellent and their potatoes were honestly the best potatoes I’ve ever had. Perfectly crispy. We will absolutely be back!“

“What a gem! Super approachable, super service, super variety... it really is super bien! Pop in and grab one of their empanadas when you're waiting for a table in Charles Speedway. Or, sign up for one of their wine tasting classes (wine and hot dogs, anyone?!!). Or cozy up at the bar with your favorite person and try one of their expertly curated wines. Oh -- don't forget to grab a lil something from their ready-to-go deli fridges: flan, salads, all sorts of fresh goodies.There's no bad choice here: you'll have a super bien time :)“

“Our dinners were seasoned with a lot of spicy which the menu/ingredients did not specify. Although we enjoy some spicy in our food, we would have chosen something else if the server would have indicated so since the dish description on the menu did not. The music was so very loud and we could not hear ourselves talking, while heading out we walked out with 3 other couples we did not know who made the same comment. We could not hold a conversation over the loud music.“

“In-laws are visiting and wanted to eat Italian in the north end. This place was recommended on reddit. We ordered the wild boar ragu, shrimp fra diavlo, veal, and salmon. I want to comment specifically on the shrimp and veal because these are so easy to over cook. The shrimp was cooked perfectly. The fra diavlo sauce had the right amount of heat (actually spicy) and was simmered perfectly. My father in law asked for the veal to be cooked medium- and it was perfectly medium. One of my favorite restaurants in the North End so far.“

“I would certainly return to this restaurant. The bread isn't very good with artificial butter but don't let this deter you. Everything (except beef tartare)made up for the bad first impression. Beef bourguignon - 5 stars Filet mignon - 5 stars Tartare de boeuf - 3 stars (didn't come with chips contrary to the description.and was very acidic) Foie gras sautee - 5 stars Cocktails - 4 stars - no better or worse than you typical cocktails Crème brûlée - 5 stars - hard to go wrong here but delicious Service - 5 stars - our waiter was so friendly and went above and beyond to make our experience excellent. Hands down the best service I've had in Boston. I would give him 10 stars if I could“

Our waiter Andreas took wonderful care of us. And Marrisa made us feel like VIPs! The place is beautiful as ever, the food incredible, the surface outstanding. Tom continues to run one of the nicest restaurants in Boston! Thank you all for a magical evening!  we promised her to wait this long next time! “

“Came here with my girlfriend for a quick mid-week dinner and left feeling satisfied and impressed! The eatery is small, and has a dark-cottage like feel. We sat ourselves and were served promptly. I ordered the chicken quesadilla, which was very juicy and jam-packed with minced pieces of fajita vegetables. It was delicious and cheesy. Every ingredient was very fresh and of good quality. It came with a side of cheesy refried beans, which were incredible! They were so good I'd honestly order them on their own. Wow! My girlfriend reported that her Bahn Mi sandwich was good, but a little on the hotter side. If you're a spice lover like me, though, that is a perk! Overall, we had a great dinner at Shay's and will definitely be back!“

“Everything about Limoncello’s is terrific. I started back in the early 2000’s having lunch when visiting family that lives in Chelsea. Then we came this past summer for my son’s 10th birthday. We dined there Friday and Saturday night this past weekend because my son loves it so much. If you haven’t tried it, then get there! It’s the best I’ve had in the North End! Maurizio is a gentleman and his family treated us wonderfully. Chico is a great server and LuLu is quick witted, kind, and BEAUTIFUL! Every staff member was great…especially one person that really made my boy feel special.“

“The only complaint I have is the food is a bit on the salty side. My boyfriend took me here for Valentine’s Day. It’s so gorgeous and romantic with nice ambiance. We would be back to try it the second time. Our waitress(girl with short hair; can’t remember her name) was extra sweet. Drinks were great.“

“A very detailed review from someone who has eaten a lot of tapas!Outstanding bartender! I’ve been a bit disappointed lately when I go into high-end cocktail bars, and they don’t have ingredients I need for making my favorite drinks. Not only was this bartender excellent and knowledgeable, but as I was naming my favorite drink, he knew it, and he loved it as well. I ordered off the menu though, and enjoyed the “kitty’s got claws” because I am a big Mezcal fan and it looked interesting. It was beautifully balanced.Then I saw him making what I thought was a corpse reviver, and we talked a bit about that, and I was thrilled that he knew how to make one, so as I watched him making one for somebody else. I ordered it as my second drink. I know I’m supposed to be reviewing the food, and I will get to that, but a quality bartender, who is interesting and fun, and above all… Knowledgeable, is a very big part of an experience that has a full bar. Bravo, to this bartender! I only wish I remembered his name.On to the food. Interesting interpretation of tapas. Especially the cabbage, which was different than any presentation I have had before. A large piece, braised perfectly, with a creamy sauce. Patatas bravas were an interesting take as well. Often they are either too small with a bit of sauce smothered on them or they are too big and only spiced a little bit. These were a great size and they were seasoned, but did not have any sauce on them, which is wonderful. And then there was some romesco sauce (made of tomatoes and roasted red peppers, and usually almonds) on the side; a really great interpretation of this classic Spanish dish. (Note that a typical bravas sauce has smoked paprika and tomato paste) and I really enjoyed the romesco as a nice change. We also had a lamb slider, which was big enough for lunch for one person. So keep that in mind when ordering. It was actually halfway between the size of a slider and a regular burger. Also, the homemade focaccia was very fluffy! The rosemary butter is a good compliment.Atmosphere is cute. Loud and bustling and definitely not the type of place that is quiet and you can hear the forks clinking. Really great vibe. Wonderful neighborhood place. We lived in JP for years and raised our kids here and it was great to come back and see this new (to us!) restaurant in the neighborhood.“
