We stayed at the Westin so this spot was perfect and convenient. The food was outstanding and the vibe was really cool! Great menu for kids and adults.

Date night with another couple. We had Tix for Laugh Boston - comedy show at 7pm and it's in the same building, so convenient for bad weather. All located in the Westin - Seaport hotel. Drinks were good. I'm gluten & dairy free, so I ordered the quinoa salad with falafel. It was good, fresh and healthy, but I was still hungry after. Table ordered fried calamari for an appetizer. One person had fish and chips another a salad, and hubby ordered a burger. Service was good, but we were there early so it wasn't too crowded until we were on our way out. Fun vibe.

My husband and I ate here during our trip and it was a great find especially during the holidays creating a joyous atmosphere. Everyone was great from the front host to our waiter. The food was outstanding and we will definitely be back in the future!

The restaurant had a million of mice running around under tables and no one seemed to care. They remained open as there were mice running around everywhere

My wife and I spent last weekend in Boston. We made reservations for dinner online prior to arrival. Upon arrival and check-in at the hotel we went to MJ O’Connors to confirm dinner reservations and have a couple of drinks. When we approached the desk, the young male behind the counter immediately stated they were not taking reservations, confused I showed him the text and email confirmation of the reservation. Again, without hesitation or even a care restated that they were not taking reservations. My wife and I approached the bar area for a drink to rethink our evening plans. There were no seats at the bar but a couple of high tables that were unoccupied. I walked back up to the front and asked if we could sit at one of those. Again, very nonchalant the male states no, you need to be on the list. We put our name on the waitlist and 30 minutes later we were seated. Not at an available high table but at a table for four in the back corner. We sat down and laugh amongst ourselves. 15 minutes later (literally) a nicely dressed woman came to the table and asked if we had been helped, we answered no and ordered a couple of drinks. She brought us our drinks and went on her way. My wife and I sat there being unapproached and completely ignored. The establishment wasn’t that busy, our area was somewhat empty and three separate waitstaffers walked by without even a glance. After our drinks we sat there and timed how long it would take us to get any kind of interaction. 35 mins passed and we both said enough is enough, I walked to the service area at the bar and paid our bill and we left. I, we, have never experienced anything ever like this before. We have praised the westin, laugh Boston, and the breakfast buffet to all- and yes, we also have discussed in detail our experience at MJ’s. It’s too bad to have such a horrible experience there when every other aspect of the event filled weekend was totally amazing.

I had the classic american burger and it was delicious. The service was also good, very friendly waiters. The ambient is cozy.

This Irish pub was an absolute gem! The clam chowder was hands down the best I've ever had – creamy, rich, and packed with flavor. The fish and chips were equally impressive, with crispy batter and flaky fish. I'm officially ruined for clam chowder outside of New England. This place is a must-visit for anyone looking for hospitality and delicious food!

Ordered a classic burger cooked medium with cheddar cheese. Got a charred hockey puck on a bun with Swiss. Fries were overseasoned to the point of inedible. Absolutely gross disappointment. Won't be back.

For some reason this place is really disappointing. It was convenient for the location but the food is really cheaply made and lacking in taste.
Watched a man who had clearly drugged a woman try to wrangle her into a car, only to have her stumble and crack her head on the cement. When confronted by others, this man abandoned the woman (who he claimed was his wife), left her on the ground, stole her purse, and ran over the curb in his attempt to flee the scene. When asking for an ambulance to be called, female manager was completely put out and was standoffish and rude. Like it was an inconvenience that someone had been assaulted during her shift. The restaurants actions were abhorrent, and if you’re worried about the drink spiking epidemic that is happening in Boston, I’d steer clear of this place.

Tonight, I ordered a burger medium-well, to go. Got back to my room, changed into my pajamas and I bit into a burnt hockey puck. Grossest burger I have ever had...it tasted absolutely charred. I am too tired to change, go back down and wait for something edible. A burger should be on the most basic of cooking skill levels, aside from toast and scrambled eggs. If you are in town for a night or two, do not waste your time here...

Perfect location for a pre-dinner at Laugh Boston. Made a reservation and was seated right away. However, it took almost 10 minutes for our waiter to come by and I had to ask another waiter to have him come by. Even then it took him another few minutes to come by. Once he did, we got our drinks right away and our food came out fresh and fast. We both got the Quinoa power bowl. Very tasty, great mix of vegetables and quinoa and the dressing was great. I did have to ask a host to have our waiter come by with our check as we hadn't seen him since our food came out. Would definitely go back though!
