“Definitely a spot that stands out, this place definitely has plenty of food options. It's a Saturday night and there's a live DJ not sure if this is a every weekend thing but it definitely did add to the atmosphere.
There are plenty of places to choose from so I can't say which one was better than the other but from others reviews each spot has its pros and cons.“

“Service is excellent and my salmon was perfect. Apps are good but smaller in size. Beer is cold. I would recommend you visit.“

“Literally best food and drinks ever!! Such a hidden gem in the city. The wings are INCREDIBLE, but next best are the pigs in a blanket and the sliders. Drinks never fail!! I’m here every weekend! Figie and Gabriella are the best. I recommend this place to all my friends!!“

“Finally posting a review after many visits, including for private events. It's a magical space where every detail is thoughtfully curated. The owners are experimenting and pushing boundaries to create something special and different. The cocktails are off-the-charts, and the bites - when offered - have always been phenomenal!“

“amazing atmosphere would do this again, might even book for my stag do“

“Surprising, food was delicious. Fish and chips were soft/fresh very good, great actually. The Steak with fries was cooked perfectly, juicy. The cheese burger was the only good, the sauce was “ok” but again cooked perfectly. The waitress was great, perfect timing & smiling which is a small, easy thing to do that so many forget these days. Also the reservation was made for the wrong day & they were very understanding. Go try this restaurant, it’s worth the trip.“

“I’m a tourist , found this bar && had the most relaxed vibe here , I was welcomed at the door , then I asked Corey to surprise me with a drink , told him a few likes && dislikes && he NAILED IT thank!!! Thank yall so much“

“The wait staff is incredibly friendly. We heard the onion rings were heavenly. We were not disappointed. However the salad we ordered and shared was one of the best salads I have ever tasted. I think it was the Hot Cold Chicken Salad. Absolutely delicious! After 10 pm the sandwiches are half price and they all looked delicious too!!“

“I really enjoy coming here for cocktails if in Fenway. Always seem to be an able to get a spot at the small bar. The bartenders are friendly and very attentive. Drinks are inventive but I usually have them make me classic off menu cocktails or let them take the reigns and surprise me.“

“Love Hopewell, my fiancé and I come here once a month, maybe even more than that. The food and drinks are excellent — if slightly more focus on cocktails than beers, fwiw. A little pricy (what isn’t nowadays) BUT they have a nice weekly (Thursday?) chicken sandwich special if you’re cost-conscious. Only detracting mark: beware the appetizers that use the cute little cast irons, I have a hunch (I.e., 2x time food poisoning last fall) that someone might accidentally be using grandma’s classic “wipe down” method instead of typical restaurant grade sanitization on their CI😅 But otherwise this place slaps so still 5-starred🤷‍♀️“

“one of the best meals we've had in a long time. highly recommend.“

“We had a great time! I would definitely recommend it. Make sure it’s a clear day. There are 3 levels took us a little over an hour. We did not go to the bar or restaurant.“

“We tried pizza Bianca, the famous salad and pasta with aged balsamic, and finally the ricotta cheese cake. Everything was vey good. The favorite dish was the pasta. I scored it 4/5 because I think the food portion was small. But definitely one of the best Italian dishes in the area! 👌“

“Nice place to enjoy outdoor porch 🌤🌈“

“Great menu. Beautiful presentation of excellently prepared choices. Delightful competent staff. You’ll be lucky to have Carlos as your waiter.“

“Excellent variety of un *americanized" Italian fare. The lobster tasted very fresh. Service time was a little slow but my table ordered two different temperatures of steak. Overall very pleased. Prices were reasonable. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Recommended highly“

“Great option for a relaxed Dim Sum Brunch!“

“Here for work, missed lunch traveling, was at the bar/restaurant right at open at 4 for just a quick bite. Ordered the lobster roll (when in Rome, right) and it came loaded with both lobster and a huge side of fries. Wasn’t expecting all of that, left fries even. Lobster could have used a pinch of salt but no complaints really.“

“We had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal at STK Boston. Plenty of food (turkey, stuffing, green beans, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, gravy) - all was delicious. Full menu was also available and one of my sons had the filet which was also excellent. Desserts were great too! Our waiter was Nathan and he was attentive, consistently checking in, and friendly. The vibe is always fun and upbeat - music, decorations for the holidays - nice ambiance.“

“Excellent food with very friendly and efficient wait staff“

“I absolutely loved my experience here. my wife and I went this past weekend for the first time for our anniversary and we left having a new favorite place in Boston. The menu is completely vegan and absolutely delicious. We ordered the Chunk steak, the short ribs, the maple boneless wings, a martini and a mocha latte. everything was so good and their house made vegan ranch is the best vegan ranch I've had to date. All of the staff was incredibly warm, welcoming and attentive. The restaurant itself is small but comfortable and enjoyable. Don't let this place pass you by, it's incredible“

“really nice spot. ❤️❤️❤️ to Alex. Great server! Wish you all the best. If you're ever in Northern NH...look us up in Milan/Gorham.“

“My second review went less than a week. Got takeout tonight. The food is fabulous. Staff is wonderful. There was a mess up with the toast app. They quickly fixed it. I got to sit at the bar and talk to the bartender. Really nice guy. The food is so flavorful. Usually my wife says I can cook better than the food we eat at most restaurants. (I love to cook. Both grandfathers were chefs in Boston) She can’t say that about this one. The chefs there do a great job. Love to get some of the recipes though.“

“Piatti buoni e curati , cucina meditteranea ben interpretata“

“Wow I took a cocktail class here last night and it was so much fun!! Sailor was a fantastic teacher and I learned a lot in a really cool space. We made a bees knees and a daiquiri, they were both fabulous. You can really tell there is a high attention to detail. Drinks on the regular menu were also really good (and well-priced). Can’t recommend a visit here enough, I can’t wait to go back!“

“I have to say it, this restaurant is amazing.

1. The service is great, well trained and polite.
2. The food is out of this world, I’ve had the duck highly recommend it).
3. Great drinks ?

“I travel for work and often find the reactions weird when I say I’m a party of 1. The hostess here was so kind. They had a private event but she was able to seat me in the raw bar section and my dinner was excellent. The staff are very kind and don’t make you feel rushed at all. The food quality was top notch and the raw bar was excellent. The service and quality surpass the pricing. Do not miss the opportunity to try this place out.“

“Cool place!! Frozen margs are on point! It’s always fun to find little speak easy spots - you enter through the cooler door! Also the street tacos are yummy- the rock shrimp tacos are my fav. It’s also quick and easy if you just want to stop for a quick bite!“

“Gigi’s had everything we were looking for in a cozy dinner date spot! The atmosphere struck the perfect balance between intimate and lively, with soft lighting and chic decor that made us feel at home the moment we walked in. Whoever handled their interiors really nailed it—modern, comfortable, and full of character.

For dinner, we tried the Chicken Parm and Rigatoni alla Vodka, and both dishes were absolute winners. The Chicken Parm was perfectly breaded, juicy, and covered with just the right amount of rich, flavorful sauce. The Rigatoni had this creamy, dreamy vodka sauce that we couldn't get enough of! Each bite was packed with flavor, and you could tell that quality ingredients were at the heart of everything on the menu.

Gigi’s is more than just a restaurant; it’s an experience. Both the chef and designer deserve applause for creating such a memorable place!“

“I will choose a good breakfast/brunch over going out for dinner most times. The Farmer’s Daughter never disappoints! They have a great selection of seasonal specials and drinks as well as staples on the menu that I come back for over and over. The drinks (both adult or other) are all delicious and the coffee is amazing!“

“Fantastic food and service and a unique atmosphere. Highly recommended.“

“Awesome Dumplings!! Great Service!☺️“

“I celebrated my 52nd birthday today with my daughter. Our service was amazing. I recommend this place to everyone“

“I went to Boston and I just had to go to a tapas place since I love tapas places. I absolutely love the ambience of this place, we went on a Monday and it was pretty packed. We ordered bacalao croquettes, grilled octopus, gambas al ajillo, papas bravas. I have to say, my favorite tapas was the bacalao croquettes and the papas bravas - I know they have two kind of papas bravas, one with chorizo and and the regular- we ordered the regular.
I was pretty full and happy, this is a must if you decide to visit Boston!“

“Excellent food and service! Our waiter Dean was top notch! Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Always a treat to come here! The brick chicken, bolognese, and various rotating seafood options are favourites for sure. We've been coming here a long time, since the Townshend days, and it's one of the best vibes around. Cocktails are always fantastic too!“

“Fantastic Friday night dinner at Troquet on South. Truly one of the best fine dining restaurants in Boston as we enjoyed a terrific night. Chris, the owner, greeted us upon arrival and also suggested a great wine pairing when stopping by our table. The food was spectacular and the service provided by our server, Rick, was equally wonderful.“
