“Had a Ball!!! Absolutely wndderfulnstaff and cocktails“

“Really impressed with this restaurant! I've developed dietary restrictions due to health reasons which have prevented me from going to a lot of restaurants. When my friend planned a going away dinner here, I reached out via email asking if it was possible for them to accommodate me. They wrote back an extremely kind response saying they were looking forward to hosting me- that really made my day. The wait staff was wonderful, listened to all of my requests attentively and my meal was perfect and delicious. I will absolutely be back, thank you Audubon!“

“Holy moly! Rainy first night in Boston staying up the way at the Commonwealth we visited the Kenmore. Nathan took great care of us. Solid pour at the bar. Can I say enough about the K Burger? Likely not other than the first bite blows your mind. Quality over everything else. Great spot, will be back tonight and tomorrow night looking for Sturgill Simpson fans.“

“A bar dedicated to my favorite poet? It was a no-brainer that I was gonna love this place. Might add, one of the best Guinness pours I’ve ever had. Perfect!“

“Very cool idea. I love not having to chase after the ping pong balls. 🤪“

“The Liberty is a neighborhood gem, interior has the bones of a classic diner street car, all narrow lines and lived in charm, with none of the gimmicks some places lean on to fake that feel.

The crowd is what makes it. A comfortable mix of working folks and locals who clearly know the staff by name, and the staff know them right back. Service is warm without being performative, the full bar is a nice surprise for a no frills spot, and the food is exactly what you want when you walk through the door: home cooked meal with generous portions.

One of our favorite local stops for an unfussy, satisfying meal. If you want a place that feels like a neighborhood rather than a concept, this is it.“

“great experience and awesome Bar Keep.“

“Everything. They are the perfect place to relax , have fun, and enjoy great Spanish music and great Spanish food. I love this place. 💜 Norvia is the Best!!!!“

“Great local place! Very casual vibe, great for casual drinks with friends (playing cards is great here). There’s the BEST trivia you’ve ever been to on Thursday nights at 8pm. Definitely recommend getting there 45 minutes early if you have a big group. It’s a unique trivia that isn’t just question and answer.“

“the best food ,salmon ,salad,drinks and so much more“

“Came here prior to a night out and so glad we found this place. Quality food and incredible cocktails at a reasonable price. Vibe and service is outstanding. Cassie and Kyle made our nights! Will definitely return any time we’re back in Allston.“

“We stopped in because of the cool hangout vibe. We were not disappointed. Highly recommend!“

“Stopped in for a delicious brunch. The food was reasonably priced and served quickly, and we we able to get a table right away. It took a little while for the check to come, but they we in the middle of a shift change, so I won't fault them for that. Always our go to breakfast option when we're in the area!“

“Delicious food! Great service and definitely appetizing food, I can’t wait to come again! My gf feels the same way, highly recommended!“

“Dining at Lifted gives you beautiful elevated views of Boston's south end. While enjoying a refreshing cocktail and a delicious meal. The staff are warm and welcoming and provide above and beyond service with a smile. The crudo we had was fresh and vibrant. The Bolognese and Poke bowl each equally superb. Whether your staying at the Omni or just looking for a lovely roof top bar experience Lifted is a great place to go. We will be back again.“

“So much Tequila and a great beer selection. Fun atmosphere and great food“

“I was hoping to order a la carte, but my only option was the breakfast buffet. Our waiter was less than enthusiastic. The buffet was well stocked and the lady who made my omelette was sweet and she did a nice job. Bananas Foster were yummy. I think we got there at a good time. It was quiet. I would hate to be there when it gets busy. It was ok, but I wish it had been a tad cheaper for what it was.“

“Seafood was excellent and service was great“

“Fun place!!! Friendly bartender!!“

“Best onion rings I’ve ever had. Convenient to Charles Theatre. Nice selection of their own brews. Fair pricing too! We will go again for sure!“
