I have had the pleasure of dining at Servia several times in the past 5 years. The food, drinks and service are consistently amazing. Best kept secret in Boston! Highly recommend!

Food was great, and our server was super nice!But service was very slow; we waited at least half an hour for our drinks (wine and sodas).

Jordan is the best, along with his fabulous team, serving up the best Mediterranean food and delicious drinks. We watched as many people passed bye, the service and food are incredible, we suggest stepping in, try the lamb chops, FRIED FETA w Honey (it's encrusted with sesame seeds, warning, you may order more!!!), the triple fried potatoes, Brussels sprouts (magic), the hummus and falafel, grape leaves, roasted lemon chicken, pork chops, and more. We ordered family style and loved every byte.

We were in Boston to celebrate my birthday, and based on the online photographs and menu, I thought that this would be a great Mediterranean meal. However, when we got the restaurant for a 7:45 pm reservation, we were basically the only table in the restaurant - which typically wouldn't bother me if the food was great. But, the food was nothing like what was presented online - for example the mezz sampler only had three of the dips - and when I asked about it we were told that they decided to change their menu - but they didn't bother to say anything to us before we ordered. This is not an experience (especially for a birthday dinner) that I would choose to have again.

The restaurant had a musty smell, none of the food came out hot, everything was cold, and it was extremely overpriced.

Almost everything about Servia was fantastic—the food and drinks were delicious, and the overall ambiance was great. However, the service hours were confusing, and the staff’s attire felt too casual for the restaurant’s upscale environment. Our server was kind throughout the meal, but the experience soured when he added gratuity to our party of three without informing us, seemingly in an attempt to receive an additional tip. This left all three of us disappointed and diminished what was otherwise an excellent dining experience. Not sure if I’d recommend.

I’ll start by saying that perhaps we made a mistake when we walked in. First we entered in the dining room and no one was there so we stood at the host stand for around 15 minutes. The food was fine I don’t think the pricing matched the quality. We had the spanakopita which could have used another minute in the oven. The calamari was missing salt and seemed to be frozen but I could be wrong. We had the truffle gnocchi which was definitely our best dish although if you’re not a fan of very salty dishes it might not be for you. The mojito was by far the best thing we had the whole night.

My wife and I had an amazing time eating here. The Mediterranean platter had sides we couldn't identify which impressed us 😆. Our wine flight was awesome, our cocktails were awesome. Jordan made us feel like family.

Be warned - they add gratuity and do not mention that in person when they deliver the check or clearly on the menu (only says “gratuity will be added in certain circumstances”). We were a table of 3.

We were about to leave when one of us took another look at the receipt and saw the gratuity charge. We would have left a 46% tip!! We added a 25% tip onto a bill total that included the added grat charge.

The service had been great, but this really spoiled it. I’ve eaten here a couple times, and now wonder how many nights I’ve paid a 46% tip. We left feeling like they tried to scam us. Very disappointing end to the evening.

We don’t have photos to share, just our experience. As a large party, we were impressed by the well-crafted, balanced, and expansive menu—there was truly something for everyone. The food was superb, with each dish thoughtfully prepared and uniquely presented in both flavor and appearance. The chef’s skill, precision, and care were evident in every bite. From appetizers to desserts, we were thoroughly delighted.

Unfortunately, the front-of-house experience didn’t match the excellence of the kitchen. While our server, "J," was caring and knowledgeable, the lack of a wine list meant we had to rely on his memory, which proved unreliable. The server assistants were inattentive and seemed disengaged. Fortunately, these are easy fixes, and the outstanding food more than made up for it.

We’ll gladly return—because the chef is just that good!

Everything was wonderful, immediately felt welcomed in by the staff.

We got three appetizers and they were all amazing, and the entrees were just as good.

Our server, Jordan, was stellar and did an amazing job and was incredibly delightful.

Will happily return when I’m in the area!

We were overcharged on our bill and there was a 20% gratuity added on. They said this was for parties of 6 or more but we were only a party of 4. The wait staff disappeared from the restaurant for about 25 minutes and no tables could be served. We found them in their side bar next door. Something is definitely up with this place.

The place was empty and while servers were pleasant they were inattentive. Little reason for an empty wine glass to sit with very few patrons. Also slow to clear plates and generally not focused on the diners experience. Food was only OK. Oh well. Will not return - too many better options in Boston.

Food was really good but it was a weird vibe with the music not matching the cuisine at all. I was expecting more Mediterranean type music not the beegees. There was also a set up with a large table in the dining area where it seemed people were printing menus / like some work area. Quite strange. Servers were very friendly and knowledgeable however.
