The view was amazing. The menu is limited but what they have is very good The view is amazing. It's worth going just for that. It would be a good place to go to just for drinks

The view was beautiful, Food was delicious, and the bartender was really nice to make us a own special mocktail drinks.

I had a wonderful dinner with my girlfriend at Over the Charles. The food was excellent, and the view was absolutely breathtaking. We watched the moon rise, which made the evening even more special. The staff surprised my girlfriend with a birthday cake, which was such a thoughtful and much-appreciated gesture.

The rooftop was perfect. Not too hectic or noisy. Our server was Maria and she was amazing !!! So kind and sweet. I highly recommend this location! The food was great too!

The cocktails were delicious but the food was a huge letdown and our waitress was less than attentive. The crab dip I ordered was so overcooked I couldn't dip the chips into it and since our waitress didn't come back to check on us, my boyfriend had to go searching for the manager to resolve the issue. I ordered the mojo tuna tacos as my replacement meal, which were also a "swing and a miss." All I could taste was wasabi, which wasn't listed in the description and was missing the sliced avocado. To top it all off, our waitress never offered us another round of drinks.

The view is great which is the selling point. The food was not good maybe because it's a bar. It deserves better chef, better dinner entry and better service.

I love this place. Beautiful views of Boston and Cambridge over looking the Charles River Menu is small but very good food Service was excellent Great experience especially around sunset

Probably one of the best views in the city. Food menu is limited and challenging for vegetarians. In general the food was good but took longer than usual. The view and the fabulous waitstaff made it a good experience.

I wanted to take a moment to recognize the exceptional service I received during my recent visit to Over the Charles. I'm somewhat of a regular, but my sister and brother in law were visiting from out west and I brought them for dinner here on Saturday night. Olivia, our server, was the best- she managed to balance giving us space with checking in just the right amount, and her thoughtful, funny demeanor truly made our visit even more great. Also, the gentleman at the door (I unfortunately didn't catch his name) was wonderful. He offered me many options for seating while the restaurant was quite full, but shortly afterwards he offered a better spot with a fantastic view when it became available. We had the best time catching up, but left talking about how wonderful your team is. Thank you!
A fun evening with impeccable views pre-concert at Scullers. And - an amazingly good lobster roll.

Salad ordered with salmon is of an appetizer size. Piece of salmon was 2” x 2.” They didn't hold the cukes as requested. “Mixed greens” contained about half raw kale and pieces of old, rotted lettuce. Nobody refilled our empty water glasses from the time meal was served. We watched diners at next table leave, and then a new party seated, without table being wiped down. May be OK for a drink because the view is nice.

The staff, the place, the food... all amazing. So good. Our server was the sweetest lady. 10/10 recommend.

Food was ok. Chicken sandwich was chewy, burger was dry. For the price and quality, not worth wasting money on it. Waitress was friendly when at the table, but took 40 minutes once appetizer arrived and actually getting up from our table to get someone to serve us. we also waited another 30 minutes before seeing our waitress and we had to again ask the bar tender to flag our waitress down to get our check. View was nice, but unless you're at the edge, your view will be obstructed by other patrons. Try other rooftop bars if you're hoping to eat. We aren't picky or high maintenance, but the cost-to-value ratio is heavily against the value. This is my first review for anywhere I've eaten and only wrote one to save others money and time.
