THE DRINKS ARE CREATIVE TOP SHELF AND STRONG. I FELT RIGHT AT HOME
Where do I start? I’m all about supporting black business and not bashing them but I feel I would be doing other potential guest and owners a disservice if I’m not honest. We won’t just a group of 3 after the hbcu game I was expecting it to be more packed and ready for the vibes. It wasn’t. Service was extremely slow. We ordered chicken wings and took them almost 30minutes to tell us they ran out of chicken. We settled for other appetizers that took way too long to come out. Finally asked for a manager the manager in that night Chris came over seemingly already frustrated and was very condescending in his tone and refused to do anything about the slow service and long wait. Fine! The two waitresses Kendal and Patricia I believe were the names were super apologetic all night. As we were waiting for our final meal we heard two other guest at two different tables complain that they had been waiting over an hour for their food. One the food came out but missed two guest from the table. The other one food never came. We hoped for a better outcome but nope our food after an hour never came we finally asked them to just cancel it and had to leave and go find find elsewhere. Mind you the menu online is no longer so we went for steak and get there and there is no steak on the menu. Smh I wish them the best I may try them again but this is actually the 2nd time I have gone and they ran out of chicken and both locations are right in a section where a grocery store is located

The Pearl is a true gem in the seafood dining scene. It’s an upscale restaurant that seamlessly blends ambiance, exceptional cuisine, and an inviting atmosphere. It’s hard to find a place that excels in all three, but The Pearl delivers on every level.
A special shoutout to Adam the outstanding bar manager, who curated an incredible bar experience for me that made the evening truly unforgettable. I’ve been back multiple times ever since. And to Chris, whose professionalism and attentiveness elevated the experience.
As a Boston Landing resident for over three years, I couldn’t be happier to have The Pearl in the neighborhood. This restaurant is more than just a meal, it’s an experience not to be missed. Don’t pass up the chance to taste greatness.
Top 2, and not number 2.

I wish I could give this place more stars! My boyfriend and I came on a weekend trip to Boston from NY and this was one of the places we had the pleasure of visiting. Everything about this place is beyond wonderful. The restaurant is beautiful, clean, and the food is INCREDIBLE. The service we received by not only our waitress but everyone else working there was amazing. The drinks are delicious! My boyfriend and I have been talking about the grilled oysters for days. Definitely give this place a try, you won’t regret it!

While the inside of this location is spacious, it was way too hot inside the restaurant, no air circulating on a day that was +90 degrees.
The service from the host to the waitress was amazing.
The food was disappointing. Not much lobster in the lobster roll, in New England you have to ace a lobster roll. The fish sandwich was overcooked.

So glad this place is in our neighborhood! Food was delicious, the staff were super helpful, and the thoughtfulness and care put into the decor (even the bathrooms) shows. Great spot, can’t wait to go back!

Good quality food just overpriced ; not worth the $. Waiter was attentive ; causal demeanor that worked really well. Beer and cocktail pricier than I would have liked but again : no issues with quality. Don’t think I would go back on regular basis and pay $$$

Delicious meal and great service! Went here for a date night, and was so impressed with the food, ambiance and server. I got the chargrilled oysters to start and they were so good! For my entree I got the salmon and it’s one of the best salmon dishes I’ve had. Looking forward to returning to The Pearl!

I’m truly disappointed with the experience my group and I had at this restaurant. What was meant to be a celebratory graduation dinner for eight turned into a frustrating evening. The service was extremely slow — our drinks took over an hour to arrive, and the food took even longer.
To make matters worse, we were all charged a “delivery fee,” despite dining in at the restaurant. By the time I noticed, my card had already been charged. I brought it to the attention of one of the owners, and while they gave me a receipt indicating a refund had been issued, it has now been a full week and I have yet to see that refund reflected in my account.
I made a point to support a Black-owned business, but unfortunately, this experience felt more like being taken advantage of than being appreciated as a customer. My entire group left disappointed, and what should have been a special evening was overshadowed by poor service and unresolved billing issues.
