I've been to three shows here and I have to say that it is not my favorite venue for listening to music because of the way that the room is set up. As others have noted, seats are close together and the tables are set up perpendicular to the stage so I always leave with a sore neck.
But that's not the purpose of tonight's review. I want to talk about Joe. My wife and I came early and had dinner in the dining area. We started with the baked fig and goat cheese which was quite good, but the toasted baguettes were hard as a rock. We brought it to our service attention and the baguettes were replaced with some delicious pita bread.
The rest of our meal was good. My wife enjoyed her Burger and I enjoyed my lemon pepper herb parmesan wings.
When Joe, who I assume is the manager, heard of our problem immediately told us that he was going to comp the baked fig and goat cheese. Dayenu! He also offered us complimentary cocktails but as we do not drink we opted for after dinner coffee. Dayenu! He also offered us a complimentary dessert, but we were pretty satisfied and simply didn't have room for dessert although the offerings were tempting. I told Joe that the small problem with one of the dishes will be forgotten long before the extra lengths to which he went to make everything right. Thank you to the City Winery and to Joe for going above and beyond.

City Winery Boston continues to deliver an outstanding experience, and i highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, classy, and well run venue. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! Great service and wonderful entertainment! The staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere made the show even better. A fantastic place for a night out highly recommend!

WOW! We finally saw a show at City Winery and we were NOT disappointed. We saw Luke Spiller on Thursday Nov 20th, what a performance, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. With that said, I just wanted to write to say EVERYONE at City Winery, from walking in the door, to our waiter Jarred was absolutely BRILLIANT. It's very hard these days to get great customer service, and my husband and I will never forget our 1st night at City Winery. We WILL be back for more. Keep up the good work, GREAT workers are very hard to find. THANK YOU!

Went to Harry Potter trivia last night and it was not a great experience. From checking in to ordering at our table the event seemed super disorganized. The service was awful and my friends and I didn’t even get the drinks we ordered.

Enjoyed the best show ever at the Winery in Boston. Andre Ward was AWESOME. The place was sold out! I'm going back for more to see Bony James! Love the Winery!! The food is awesome too

I heard about Aloe Blacc coming to City Winery when I was at the Avery Sunshine show earlier this year. I was so excited to finally see him in person, I got my solo ticket the minute they announced the tickets were available! Picked my tall table in the back, roomier and even planned the meal I was going to eat the night before. The guest sitting at my table ordered her solo ticket too, we met that night and hit it off, laughing and taking pics of AB✨during his fabulous performance. Ordered a Ritual mock-tail, CEASAR salad with shrimp and the delicious Citrus cake. The salad was cool, crisp and cheesy, the shrimp grilled and flavorful and the cake was the sweet treat that topped off the delicious meal. The music and sing along was inspiring and the atmosphere was a true A. I. M. vibe. We were able to get signed CDs, t-shirts, and a selfie with Aloe Blacc‼️. Can’t wait for the next City Winery event.

I’ve seen several bands at the City Winery Boston. It’s a musicians spot to check out music. I think they know that, the proximity to Berklee brings in likeminded people who are into great music and City Winery delivers. The food is great (I can put an entire order of truffle fries away on my own) but everything I’ve tried has been fantastic. TL;DR Great atmosphere great bands great food and there’s no bad seats.
Eric Roberson waa a fantastic act to have perform, funny, sassy, creative and uber uber talented. Venue is always fun, good easy food, nice wine choices!

City Winery is a stunning venue, and I’ve only attended events at the main stage. My only major complaint is the seating arrangement. The chairs are packed in so tightly that there’s virtually no room to move. If you order food, you’ll likely find yourself elbow-to-elbow with the person next to you. I would honestly prefer if they raised prices on food or cocktails to allow for fewer seats and more space per table. As it stands, the cramped setup feels not only uncomfortable but potentially unsafe.

Amazing venue-amazing show!!!

I love the vibes of the audience and the entertainment. The food is great, they have something for everyone. Service is terrible, they need more servers. Over all I did have a great time!
