“Had my birthday celebration at Blackmoor today. Excellent experience all around. Large Beer and Cocktail list and the appetizers were amazing! I had the Cod and it was one of the best meals I've had. Excellent service and atmosphere and this delicious desert to top it off! Highly recommend!“

“Left another place to come here because the customer service was bad. What a 180. Citizen staff was friendly, great w/suggestions and helped secure me a seat at their busy bar. Had two great cocktails and a delicious pepper seared filet. Well done Citizen Pub!! I will be back!“

“Non rushed long lunch. My short rib grilled cheese was huge and delicious. Enough leftover for tomorrow. The French fries were some of the best ever- served in a cute metal basket. Excellent service. My pomegranate margarita was nice - not the best I ever had. I'll be back“

“Great food and the service is fantastic.“

“My nonprofit group enjoyed a private party at Tokenfire. The hot appetizers were a great start to the party, with meatballs, pork dumplings, the best brussel sprouts and savory flatbreads. We enjoyed the authentic Shepherds Pie, perfectly grilled salmon, and a vegetarian pasta dish. Dessert, including a fig bread pudding with salted caramel gelato and tiramisu was fabulous. The service was excellent and the ambiance was delightful. I hope to return when they have live music.“

“Hosted a family funeral coalition for 40. The food was great. The menu had something for everyone. Accommodated special requests. Service was excellent.

“Our " Cheers" Bar. Love the staff, the food and the atmosphere ! !“

“Perfect little spot to go after the aquarium. In walking distance. My fiance and our little birthday girl came in from Wareham today. The birthday girl was fussy at first. But our server was fantastic. We sat outside. Beautiful little spot. Food was good. Service was quick. Prices were typical for the city area. And the server gave our birthday girl a miniature yellow rubber ducky which cheered her up quick 😊 Thanks for a lovely lunch Granary Tavern!!“

“Love the monthly rotation of empanadas“

“Fantastic restaurant/bar!! The owner is amazing! So friendly and great food! Do yourself a favor if you are in Boston and stop in! You will not be disappointed!!“

“Great time last night!! Highly recommend. This restaurant went above and beyond to accommodate a fundraiser that was held at the restaurant.“

“I only had the opportunity to have a single drink here. It was an old fashioned, which is so eady to make, but still usually screwed up. This was definitely a very good one, almost worth the ~$19 price. I will be back.

But speaking of backs, none of the seats have them -- those of us with back problems can't sit comfortably for long. Hence the three stars instead of five on atmosphere.“

“WINGS!!!!! You have to get the wings.
Fall off the bone, almost like a dry rub but you don’t even need a sauce. Seriously incredible. And the older gentleman bartender you will just fall in love with. He makes it feel like home, but a home that has wings to die for.“

“Excellent vibe, great food selection and cold Guinness 👍🏼👍🏼“

“I really liked the PULL FOR CHARITY. Baramor donates $3 every pint poured to the non-profit charity. It’s a great way to donate.“

“Cozy, relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and efficient service. Great food and drink!“

“AMAZING atmosphere!!! AMAZING service!!!! AMAZING food!!! Seriously run to grab a bite here and ask for Sara as your waitress!! The burratta was Michelin star worthy. The best bite of food that I have ever had.“

“Love the Town Tavern! The atmosphere is relaxing & comfortable! The staff is knowledgeable & attentive! The food is DELICIOUS! (And the portions are large). Highly recommend this restaurant!!!“

“Pepperoni pizza was GREAT!!“

“Great Korean fusion spot in Seaport. Between the three of us, we shared the chopped cheese rice cakes, General Lee’s fried chicken, and the OG Broccolini, and it was more than enough food. The chopped cheese rice cakes were the standout dish and an absolute must-order.

The only downside was the outdoor seating. We were hoping to enjoy the nice weather outside, but there were noticeable fumes above the patio area that detracted from the experience. Aside from that, the food was excellent and we’d definitely come back. Despite that minor issue, the food was creative, flavorful, and memorable enough that we’d gladly return.“

“If your are looking for a place with high quality this is a excellent spot. Very much recommend this spot. 🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Fairly good for an airport hotel restaurant.
Pros: The service was friendly and attentive. The onion rings were nice and crispy. The cook on our burgers was a perfect medium.
The cons: A little too much grease on the buns. The kitchen missed small things, for example, we had to ask twice for condiments.“

“Great food and drinks! Our waitress Christen was very friendly and attentive. We’ll be back!“
