The orchestra is pretty amazing. Came here for the Children's Christmas show.

Skip the POPS where you have to listen to a goofy host who will find some way to offend you. Go to a symphony concert and have your soul touched.

Amazing food and service. There are stations for soup, cheese, fruits, dinner rolls, salads, entrees, sides, and desserts. Hot tea and coffee are complimentary with the meal. You do to have a concert ticket first to get admittance into Symphony Hall. So buy your ticket and then make reservations for the symphony Café for the day of the concert. Patrons have up to 2.5 hours to dine before the evening concert starts. $60 for the dinner buffet ($48 plus tax and mandatory gratuity).There is a lunch buffet for the Friday afternoon concerts and up to 2 hours are allotted for dining at that time.

Had a great pre-concert meal at Symphony Hall. Can't beat the convenience, and a meal here helps enhance the entire experience. Best of all, the buffet is back after being dropped until this season due to Covid. The appetizers, soup, salad, entrees (roaster salmon and maple chicken), and deserts were delicious. Wait staff were very attentive and the pricing is reasonable. Highly recommended.

It's a really nice place and food was good.

One of the most iconic venues in Boston! While Orchestra seats are generally the most desired, the first balcony center front rows are some of the best in the house with sweeping views of the stage.
