Of all the places we could have chosen to celebrate our one-year anniversary, The Blue Ox was the perfect pick. The only regret we had was not saving enough room for dessert! The food, service, and atmosphere created a truly unforgettable experience.

The service staff and chefs were outstanding, and everything felt thoughtful and welcoming from start to finish. The experience we had was too good too not leave a review right away. We will most definitely be back.

One of the first restaurants to blaze the gentrification trail in Lynn. Was renowned for its upscale burger. Original owner sold the business in 2019. It's changed a little bit but not much.

My recent visit was a week ago. Got the oysters for an app, split with my date. I ordered the baked breast of chicken, it was very good, cooked to perfection.

The bar staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Always eager to engage in conversation. Cocktails...

My girlfriends and I travel to Boston frequently and this is now one of our favorite places! The food was amazing, the music and atmosphere was energetic and fun and most of all our server, Wade (Nate) was top tier!!! We can’t wait to visit again!
