Great food! Great service! Nice Atmosphere! I’ve been here a couple times now and it doesn’t disappoint. I really enjoy the Mac n Cheese, truffle fries and the Porterhouse Steak.

Enjoyed dinner following a concert. There were choices that appealed to everyone in a small mixed crowd and everyone enjoyed their food. I had Ceaser salad with steak which was nicely dressed and very tender. Some nice options on the wine list and craft brews. Service was excellent, we had Jennifer.
Would plan to come again.

Had a great meal last Sunday. The chowder was excellent and the French dip was melt in your mouth good. Our waiter Max was very attentive and friendly. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area!

We had a couple beers at the bar and they tasted great and we had amazing service. There was a pretty blonde with a fat rock on her finger was the best bartender and gave us amazing recommendations for a little bar crawl back to our hotel. Highly recommend for quick service and good drinks.

We were seated at the patio, then ignored by waitstaff for 15 mins. Not even so much as a glass of water, so we got up and left.

Great atmosphere- meh food - items aren’t prepared as the menu describes… service was slow but friendly. Perhaps understaffed

We ended up stumbling on Back Bay Social because the kitchen had already closed at our "plan A", and like the "plan B" pill, we were so thankful to have Back Bay Social as an option in a late night pinch.
The BBS Burger was one of the best things we ate on our entire trip, and the Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza was fantastic as well. A double pour of my favorite bourbon (Angel's Envy) and a sudden late-night influx of fellow Pearl Jam fans made for a wonderful evening, although the sudden rush didn't phase the team at the restaurant at all. Even when they initially brought the wrong pizza to our table, the correct pizza was brought out within minutes and the pizza was nowhere to be found on our final check.
Great experience, and love that the quality of the food does not suffer late at night as it often does at other restaurants- highly recommend!!

I had such a great time here! We had the quest dip as an appetizer, it was delicious. I got the chicken and waffles for my entrée with bacon bourbon jam, it was so good I ate the entire thing. The portions were great for the price and the service was wonderful. The atmosphere was also great, we sat outdoors, but it also had a super cool vibe inside, especially downstairs, so I’d recommend checking that out too!

I LOVE clam chowder and burgers. Whenever I come to Boston, I will eat clam chowder without a second thought. If you’re into bar food, then you have to be three sheets in before you’ll enjoy this food. I love bar food, but this one is my all time worst mistake. The clam chowder was horrific. The onion rings were straight out of a frozen plastic bag. Even the burger was bad. How was the service? It took me four times to flag down the waitress. When I told her how bad the food was, there was no care behind it at all. Do yourself a favor - pass on this place.

I got the chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries. They were good at first but later at night I had severe stomach pain.
I also got a mango cocktail , it seemed like it didn’t have any alcohol in it. Just sweet syrup.
The place was empty.
