“Great tasting lobsters and lobster sandwiches. Best lobster bisque in the world--seriously. Seafood chowder also very good. We always go here for the lobster special, which is reasonably priced. Where else in Boston can you get 2 lobsters and a bowl of mussels for less than 50 bucks? This place rocks.“
“Tatte Bakery & Cafe at One Boston Place offers a delightful culinary experience. The ambiance is cozy, with a charming atmosphere perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet moment alone. The pastries and baked goods are simply divine, each bite bursting with flavor and freshness.“
“Ion served the food rapidly. Delicious traditional Moldovian food. The taste of Moldova was delicious. The only complaint I could have is that I personally like less fat on my meat but it is quite typical to get fattier pieces of meat in Eastern Europe.“
“We had an absolutely phenomenal time at MIDA!! The Caesar salad, the spacatelli al pesto, and the tiramisu were particularly incredible, and the whole team was so kind and welcoming! Absolutely the best place for date night and to celebrate my birthday ? “
“Excellent lil shop, excellent service. The croons were out of the world. We have been looking for good quality croons and other than amorino , I didn’t like anything. But now I have a new favourite place. I got 6, I ate two of them because of couldn’t resist it and I couldn’t help but write a positive review about this business. I definitely recommend this place if you are looking for some high quality croons and coffee ( especially the dirty chai latter )“
“Solid ice cream shop. It is family owned and sauces and ice cream flavors are made there too. You can sample ice cream flavors before deciding on your order. Recently bought banana lazy bar and it was delicious. Who knew banana flavored ice cream can be decadent and tasty. It doesn't have any bitter artificial aftertaste. The crumble outside wasn't crazy sweet and had a lovely texture.“
“When visiting a French restaurant expectations are high. The food tends to be exquisite and some dishes are here. The Foie Gras is amazing and so are all the deserts we tried. However the escargot which is something I always try at French restaurants was only ok.The service varies on who your server is as we had friends who came to the restaurant after we sat and we ordered before they even got their menus and yet they had their appetizers first. When looking for someone to call for a refill and even when we wanted the menus for desert, it is very difficult to catch anyone looking at your table as if each waiter will only look at their own table only. On the bright side they brought us water as soon as we sat and refilled it often. That is how I would get someone's attention...finish my water so someone could come by and I could ask for something.The place is very small and you will have to be a party of two and be lucky to get a table without a reservation, which is what happened with our friends..who came in a little after we sat and were hoping they could sit with us, but with such little space it seemed unlikely they would even be able to get a table but as they were asking a table for two was leaving.Its rather on the expensive side which can be understood with the quality of some of the dishes, however I would except everything to be great for these prices.Its a good place with potential to be great.“
“The food, drinks, and atmosphere were all incredible. We ordered a breakfast burger, brussel sprout salad, and french toast. It was all delicious and looked so good that we forgot to take pictures of it. The drinks were also tasty and decorated in a fun way. The waitstaff were so friendly and nice which led to a fun and easy-going atmosphere. It was a perfect place to go for brunch. We can't wait to come back and try lunch and dinner here too!Vegetarian options: There's a salad section and vegetarian options in the shareable section.Parking: All of the parking lots in Assembly Row are free if you stay under 3 hours.Kid-friendliness: This is a great place to bring kids and families. Its also great for a group of friends and couples.Wheelchair accessibility: The tables and entrance are all wheelchair accessible.“
“Exquisite pastries. The hazelnut cream, the tarte au citron were 2 of my favorites. The meringue on the tarte was so airy, the hazelnut flavor light and moreish. Coffee eclairs have a depth of flavor...and well the chocolate fondant and cake were all one could expect. Very buzzy at 11 am and service with a smile!“
“Nautical themed seafood restaurant near Harvard University. Really cool vibes. A bit pricey but everything tasted amazing! We spent about $70 with tip for two people. Try the lobster roll and fries.Dietary restrictions: Our server immediately asked if there were any food allergies or restrictions when we ordered. Very prompt, professional, and considerate.“
“Sailor was one of the nicest bartenders I’ve ever met. She was sweet and informative and her class was paced well so that no one got left behind. And also we had all questions answered. We learned about some very unique drinks. Thank you Sailor we enjoyed it very much and we are very excited to try the drinks at home with our new Bourbon.“
“I recently tried the lobster butter roll at James Hook and Co. in Boston and I was extremely satisfied with both the food and the service. The roll was packed with delicious lobster meat and the butter added a rich and indulgent flavor. The roll itself was perfectly toasted, adding a nice crunch to each bite.I also had the crab cake, and it was outstanding. The crab meat was plentiful and there were very few fillers, which allowed the natural sweetness and delicate texture of the crab to shine through. The crab cake was fried to perfection, with a crispy exterior and a moist and flavorful interior.One thing that stood out to me was the fast service. Despite the popularity of the restaurant, my order was prepared and served in a timely manner. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that I had a great dining experience.Overall, I highly recommend James Hook and Co. for their lobster butter roll and crab cake. The quality of the food, coupled with the fast and friendly service, make it a fantastic dining option.“
“Jinny’s has been our favorite pizza since they opened. Everything is amazing from the pizzas to the appetizers and the service is 10/10. The pepperoni pizza and caesar salad are a must! The ‘mike’s hot honey’ is great added on to the pizza. Don’t forget to add a buttermilk ranch dippin’ sauce for the crust.We do both dine in and take out. Seating is pretty limited so plan ahead. No reservations. Worth the wait! They move quick too.“
“Well ok, I admit the cookies are good, it's expensive but mama the taste. On the other hand, the new lemon cookie which is $4.75 instead of $4.25 would be a matter of dosing. The uncooked dough still of course falls in the stomach. Still a line but it goes quickly.“
“Small eatery in the seaport district that we tried that had good reviews. I had the traditional lobster roll that was STUFFED full and delicious. Never had a traditional one before so for a first time one, it was a good one. Although when we trying to ask questions when ordering, the girl at the desk (you order immediately when you walk in after looking at a huge board) was no help and did not seem interested in answering any unfortunately. My husband ended up with a chicken sandwich. The place is quite small. We were able to find a table in the enclosed outdoor eating section so that was nice.“
“Amorino Gelato on Newbury Street offers a delightful gelato experience, with excellent service, a charming interior, and high-quality, flavorful gelato that sets it apart.Full/Extended Version:My visit to Amorino Gelato on Newbury Street was a delightful experience from start to finish. Located in a bustling area full of enticing bubble tea spots, restaurants, and a nearby Trader Joe's, Amorino stands out as a gem for gelato lovers.One of the highlights of my visit was the exceptional service we received. The staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about their gelato offerings, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The interior of the gelateria was charming, with a cozy ambiance that invited us to sit and savor our gelato.But the true star of the show was, of course, the gelato itself. Amorino's gelato is a cut above the rest, offering a natural denser, richer flavor than traditional ice cream. Each scoop was bursting with flavor, and the quality of the ingredients was evident in every bite. The variety of flavors and the way they were presented, shaped like a blooming flower, added to the overall experience.Whether you're in the mood for a classic flavor like stracciatella or something more adventurous like mango or pistachio, you can expect nothing but the best from Amorino. Each flavor we tried was delicious, and it was clear that a lot of care and attention went into crafting each batch of gelato.If you're in the mood for some delicious gelato in a charming setting with excellent service, look no further than Amorino Gelato on Newbury Street. It's a perfect spot to satisfy your sweet tooth and indulge in a scoop (or two) of high-quality, flavorful gelato.“
“First time ordering from here & I was very satisfied with the wait times, food & friendliness by the cashiers & cooks. Atmosphere here is really good & I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who likes Mediterranean food or wants something fresh & made with love!“
“This place is an absolute vibe. They have the best Milk Tea/Boba I have ever had, and their mochi waffles are delicious. Strawberry Cheesecake waffle and Coconut Brown Sugar Boba is my favorite! I first visited about a year after COVID when it was counter service only and you couldn't sit down. I immediately fell in love and now I stop in whenever I can. Now that it's open again it's even better. The staff is amazing, so friendly and they will remember you by name! It makes me so happy to see this place continue to thrive and grow.Oh, and they're also car people. So from one fellow gearhead to another, cheers! A must try place in Boston if you love Boba or dessert ❤️“
“One of the best breweries in Boston with the coolest vibe. The beers are super fresh and they have such a great variety between IPAs, lagers, porters & sours. Super friendly bartenders and a beautiful, spacious patio which is perfect for the warmer months. Plus they have great coffee!“
“We had a blast trying candle pin bowling for the first time! Such a cute and friendly establishment. Alexander and Jim were great hosts and very helpful as it was our first time. Our waitress was very kind too. Yummy flatbread pizza and drinks. The bowling is fun, fast paced, and so unique. You learn self scoring and they provide the scoring sheets & pencils. You can get food and drink delivered to your bowling area. I highly encourage reservations but they are also flexible with walk in if you arrive early enough! Would totally go back and definitely recommend for some different and fun.“
“There was a very soulful and fine guitar player filling the attractive, open space with with the songs of Central and South America. A warmth and feeling of community abounded. The food was great and i'd never had grasshopper tacos before!“
“Place was rocking on a Saturday afternoon after a short renovation and reopening. Metal music, dogs, and hazy IPAs. A bit of an outdated concept at this point but it still seems to be working for them. On the pricey side but came for the lagers and was not disappointed. Both their Helles and Czech Dark were quality and quite good. Would drink the Helles (Logic Gate) regularly if I were local. Good taproom vibes and a few good eats available.“
“Absolutely delicious and authentic style Mexican food. I had the TACOS BIRRIA my girlfriend had the tempura shrimp tacos. We are from NY and here staying at an Air BNB up the road , if we lived local we would be ordering from here at least once a week ! Highly recommend.“
“Had a great dinner with family on my birthday! The restaurant was packed with happy diners and the staff was extra accommodating as we waited a few mins for our table to be cleared and reset. The hostess knew we were celebrating and made it an extra special experience. All of the food was delicious - both during dinner and as leftovers (even the bread!). Can't wait to bring the family back here again soon.“
“I always get the classic with house mayo, and it’s made perfectly every time (seriously, how do they get a runny egg so perfect?). It’s the perfect breakfast sandwich to start off my day, and it’s so affordable (under $10!) I swear my life improves just a little bit every time I eat my favorite breakfast sandwich at Mike & Patty’s.“
“They have lots of interesting dishes that you don’t usually find in a sushi restaurant in the US. The location is also great, with lots of restaurants and pubs nearby. They also have metered street parking nearby.Parking: Paid street parking from Mon/Sat during the day. Evenings and Sundays are free.“
“This was my first ever Tatte location I went to. It was warm out so I sat outside for a nice view. Got the prosciutto toast with pesto and goat cheese and now it’s my go to Tatte dish. Their honey halva house latte is a must try too - also my go to Tatte drink.“
“Serg & Evelina have created my favorite little-known coffee shop and I almost do not want to write this post and blow up my spot. My husband and I go here as often as we can. It is so nice to feel like a part of a neighborhood and community. We stumbled upon Bikeeny and are so happy we did.“
“My son ate all of your greek style pancakes and thats a huge compliment to the food! Everything else from the brunch menu was super tasty and service was great. it gets busy early, so come as early as you can. Overall, great food great service and very airy and spacious space. Loved it!“
“I really like this mall. It has shoppable stores for every budget and it’s bright, spacious, and clean. I’d check out the directory before going so you know where to head. Parking is expensive. You’re definitely paying for the convenience. Overall 4.5 stars“
“Be transported to Egypt with the most incredible, delicious menu at Koshiri Mama! Brought to you with love, compassion and plant based goodness. You’ll feel like family - and enjoy absolutely amazing food that’s simply divine - and good for you too! We had a wonderful catered affair recently and Sahar and her team made the evening absolutely magical. Can’t wait for our next event with Koshiri Mama ?Vegetarian options: Everything is plant based and deliciousDietary restrictions: No worries about any dietary restrictions- you’re in expert hands“
“Came in for a quick visit and the main seating area was very busy. Lots of people working, which is to be expected for any cafe in Boston. The staff was friendly and lively when they took my order. I just got a raspberry crumb bar and it was linzer tart like and delicious! They had some other tasty options it seemed so I will probably be back for a study session.“
“This is a hidden gem! We came in here after a bike ride for coffee and an egg sandwich. The egg sandwich was on a homemade biscuit and one of the best egg sandwiches I've ever had. The baked goods were unbelievable. The owner, Ramona, is so sweet. We will definitely be back! 10/10 recommend you check this place out!“
“Julia is one of the kindest and most thoughtful human beings I have ever met and her hazelnut iced lattes, breakfast sandwiches, and baked goods are delicious! It feels like stopping by a family member or close friend’s home every time we pop in. Our dog learned the words “coffee shop” because of Julia and her treats. Well worth any wait when they are super busy- Julia genuinely cares about you and your order no matter how many customers she has!“
“I can’t say enough about Soc’s. We live in Boston and although we love visiting new ice cream stands, Soc’s has become our go-to place and a tradition. From a customer’s perspective it’s just a fantastic business. The ice cream is consistently excellent, as is the service. Both are exactly what you’d hope to find at an ice cream stand. The hours and fantastic, and they have a longer season than any other ice cream stand I know of. It feels like the summer is extended by months.There isn’t anything I would change.“
“i've taken my 2 dogs many times.it's a great place for them to unwind. my older dog interfaces with a lot of other dogs but my younger one goes there to meet people as he sits for long periods of time on the laps of strangers. best thing about it is that everyone there loves “
“Maria's Taqueria has very cost-effective and tasty tacos in a convenient location! Portion sizes are great as well. Would definitely consider getting tacos, taco salad and burritos from here and the best part is that it wont break the bank! The service is nice and quick. Atmosphere has room to grow.Food - 12/20Service - 6/10Atmosphere - 3/10“

“Students get 10% off on Mon-Thurs.Get a cone and choose as many flavors as you like. If you have layering preference, do tell the staff upfront.The last time I visited, I ordered a large cone with strawberry, mango and pistachio. Flavors were all great!Large looks asthetically more pleasing but might be too much (and too sweet) for a dessert trip. Still overall a great dessert place.“
“Food I'll come back for! You order at the door, so best to check the menu before coming in, to make sure you get seated the quickest. They'll serve your food after the order. The food and drinks were ?? They do have the cold pressed drinks in bottles. So if you're eating in, maybe skip them. We had the Spicy Peanut Noodles, The Adventurer Bowl, Elote Avacado Salad and and drink Frozen Mochaccno, Orange Blossom Cold Press and Ginger Crush. They were the best.Vegetarian options: All Vegetarian, killer food!Dietary restrictions: Would accomedate any dietary restrictions. All option clearly marked on the menu.“
“Mirette is an incredible artist and baker. We requested a specific design based on a board game she was not familiar with but she completely understood what we were looking for based on pictures and descriptions we shared. The cake was stunning to look at and was delicious to eat!“
“Absolutely wonderful!From the young lady helping us navigate the menu to pick out what we wanted,to the wonderful cook Carlos who got our order out quickly and cooked to perfection! These Texas girls(caterers to boot!) We're very impressed! Thank you for making our experience so wonderful!“
“My mom hosted my Bridal Shower in the private room at Night Shift Brewing's Everett Taproom and it was a dream come true!The space was recently renovated and looks amazing! Table/Couch configuration is customizable and Night Shift provided a few folding tables as well.My shower was in February and Valentines Day themed, I am *still* hearing from guests on how great the space was, how everyone enjoyed their drinks (& were so surprised Night Shift served more than just great beer!), and how wonderful Mike and the rest of the NSB team was!“
“I recently visited this bagel shop and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of their bagels. The bagel I ordered was perfectly baked – crunchy on the outside and delightfully soft and chewy on the inside. However, the limited seating space meant that I had to wait a bit before finding a place to sit down. Despite that, the cozy atmosphere added to the charm of the place. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and would definitely recommend it to fellow bagel enthusiasts.“
“Love this place and the owners, Rosemary and Hydn! They are welcoming and have a fun assortment of fabulous nutritious drinks, smoothies, and snacks. Kids are welcome too and can even get their own special small drink. So happy to have them in the neighborhood!“
“Even from the menu, you could tell that this is authentically Brazilian. They offer many authentic topping options, such as brigadeiros. This place is significantly better than those chain açai and juice spots in town. However, the price was very high!“
“My recent visit to Busy Bee Restaurant for breakfast left me feeling like I had stepped into a cozy home. The warm ambiance set the stage for a delightful dining experience. The staff, especially our waiter, went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Their genuine friendliness and proactive service made us feel truly valued. Now, let's talk about the food. It was delicious! Generous portions at reasonable prices, cooked to perfection. Overall, Busy Bee Restaurant exceeded our expectations with its welcoming atmosphere, impeccable service, and mouthwatering food. Highly recommended!“
“Fantastic authentic Brazilian steakhouse. Great buffet, great service, delicious food. Deceivingly large with a lot of seating inside, but don’t be fooled - it can be competitive to get a table here on a weekend evening. Order all you can eat and watch the servers bring you delicious cuts of meat all night. Freshly sliced table side, in the traditional Brazilian steakhouse way. There’s nothing not to like about this place. They have a small parking lot, but street parking can be found. Just passed the restaurant. You’ll see cars lining both sides of the road and realize what an attraction this place is.“
“My husband and I hosted our rehearsal dinner at Break Rock Brewing. It was an absolute hit! We are huge brewery people and this place was right up our alley. It is right on the boardwalk of the beautiful Marina Bay with stunning views of the marina. They reserved an area for us where we had plenty of room. They don't serve food, so we had our dinner catered by Fat Cat right around the corner. Their beers are delicious and their staff is super friendly. The planning process was incredibly easy and their event manager was very responsive and transparent throughout the entire process. They also had a live DJ and arcade games which were a huge hit! Highly recommend hosting your event here!“
“This spot has easily become my go-to for a delightful breakfast or a relaxing afternoon treat in Boston. The avocado Tartine stole my heart – generous portions of creamy avocado on not one, but two perfectly toasted slices of bread! It’s a rare find in a city where most places skimp on portions.What’s even more impressive is their full gluten-free menu, catering to various dietary needs without compromising on taste or quality. The staff here are not only kind but incredibly helpful, making every visit a pleasant experience. Whether you’re craving a wholesome breakfast or a satisfying snack, this place hits the spot every time. Highly recommended!Dietary restrictions: They have a full gluten free menu.“
“We are from Southern NH and read an article on Boston eateries. This came up as one to try. We thought the name was funny, so decided to look them up on Yelp. Not a lot of reviews yet, but high praise. Down for a road trip to stuff our faces, (because what else is there to do during COVID times?) we set out for Mr. Roni cups. Worth the 52 minute trip! The.Crust.Is.Amazing. Magically crispy and chewy all at once. It seems a bit pricy, but the gourmet flavor of the cheese and sauce is also worth the expense. Would love to see more than a few flavors, but we would definitely make another trip down for this deliciousness.“
