“Fantastic place- Atmosphere, food people and vibe Love Cormick - the bartender !!!“

“Great food & service one o my favorite spots. However when full the noise level is impossible to speak over, especially with 2 large birthday celebrations going on in the dining room. This was such a disappointment for me, and this was before Wicked Trivia started !“

“Great food at reasonable prices. All ingredients are fresh and full of flavor, food prepared with care and consideration, and premises are clean and welcoming, albeit a little cozy on the inside“

“We stumbled on the amazing restaurant and stopped in twice while on vacation in South Boston! The food was unbelievable and the service was fantastic! 👏🏼 This is going to be our go to spot every time we make our annual trip to Boston. Love the local vibe and the chef and owner, Asia, was hand on and personally brought out the food she so skillfully prepared!! HIGHLY recommend Moonshine 152! 💕@chefasiamei“

It’s a bit pricey but nothing outrageous compared to other restaurants of the same quality in the area. Service is lovely too!“

“I "cried" when my fave VEGAN or VEGETARIAN "GO-to" eat-in place closed all their locations around Boston. That was sadly & formerly GrainMaker .. (gone now) However DiG has grown on me as their deFACTO replacement for all FRESH VEGGIES and otherwise ALL FRESH MEAL VEGAN or VEGETERIAN eats and eat-in place! This is becoming my greatly reccomended "hidden vegan and veggie gem" in Boston with LOTS of locations. They have 3 locations thus far in Boston and 2 in Cambridge. I hav ONLY visited their downtown location thus far! Just as formerly with GrainMaker, DiG is as close to authentic home cooked! & genuinely HEALTHY! AND fresh meals that you can get to. Always fresh veggies, steamed & otherwise. --(they also serve a variety of proteins, as in variety of meats and fish, but i stay vegan. I have NEVER tried any of their meats or fish here.. ONLY their veggies and seasoned TOFU on occasion.. more oft than not, i do not even get their TOFU as a protein and opt to feast on JUST their steamed or boiled or baked veggies, bases. like rice and excellent mixed veggie salads sides!) Have been frequenting it for about 2 years since 2023 now, but held off on reviewing it until i was SURE of my experiences here. Decided to review it today bcs "it's time". I spoke to the very customer service oriented and responsibve supervisor here at this location, his name is DiJuan and was served by Adonis today and he was also very accommodating (after i explained i eat vegan) and on showing me my MANY fresh veggie choices, bases, proteins (including delish prepared Tofu) and PLENTY of heavenly veggie sides, all preped like you'd expect to find in a Thanksgiving grand day family meal. (AND they do this EVERY DAY!! ) This is HEALTHY eats and quite tasty and delish! See my posted pic w this review of my choice of eats today. In short, just today, i started with very little brown rice as my base and added 2 types of their fresh salad, Cannellini Beans w dill & greens along with their steamed or boiled Kale greens and added also a sweet potato that had been steamed & also steamed brocolli. I LUV eating fresh, healthy, TASTY and "homemade style" (as in NOT processed!!). I added their Garlic dressing to top it off. It came to something like 10+ bucks (B4 tax)! Unheard of !! for a BIG & FULLY portioned full veggie plate like this! BIG PORTION of a FULL PLATE! -- i declined, as usual to get any protein with my meal today, is why, STiLL i got a HUGE portioned plate! ( I normally HAVE2 order 2 - 3 separate orders and combine them, at HoneyGrow, anuther fave local "vegan" franchise in Boston, in order to get filled up if i'm only eating OMAD, as in One-meal-a-Day, in order to get full elsewhere usually!). They have a FAMILY (feeds4) option after 3pm every day that feeds 4-5 people (adults not kids) for like $43. QUITE A BARGAIN for something like this. AND it look like a Thankgiving day meal to top it off! --(formerly anuther non-vegan place "had this", now gone, called Boston Market. However they LOADED their side protions and even base meal with SO MUCH SALT, yuck! so that was ALL you could taste. THEY supposedly made home made, but found out NOT SO!!, theirs was loaded with processed sh*t, like their supposedly home-made mashed potatoes were the powder kind, loaded with pseudo milk and SALT, YUCK!!) NOT SO ! with this place.. DiG is 180 degrees fr tht.. This is truly GREAT tasting REAL and "home-prepped" veggies. They are winning me over from my other 2 "go-to's" "vegan-ish" franchises in Boston whcih have steadily been declining for various reasons, those being Bon-Me (their employees, over at Bon-Me for last 2-3 years it seems at ALL locations i have tried, simply do not undertsand nor speak english for the most part, their food WEN i can get it ordered the way i want it, is generally good, oft times its taken over 2 returned plates in order to get it prepared the way i orderd it.. v“

“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.“

“Three of us — my wife, my friend, and I — came in for lunch and had a fantastic experience. The food was very tasty! I tried the Lamb Ribs and they were absolutely delicious — tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. We’ll definitely be coming back for more!“

“tasty steak and eggs with quick service!“

“Excellent setting for business lunches - quiet, refined and consistently satisfying.“

“Great Ports Bar in Boston Mass.“

“It’s da bomb. If you are ever in the area, don’t miss it ✌🏼♥️😎“

“Had to visit as we were in Boston x“

“Fabulous atmosphere, great food and friendly colleagues.“

“I have lived in the Boston-esque area for twelve years and have eaten so many good meals, but the fish tacos here are the only meal I needed to have before my upcoming move out west(ern MA). Cocktails are fun and creative, service is 13/10, the XL portions of fries that require to-go boxes are the only fries I’ve ever found to reheat well, and if you’re lucky, Steve will be tending bar. I love going at the slightly quieter times but I’ll never gatekeep the euphoria experienced by a meal here. Bonus perks: Max & Chelsea have the best senses of humor, the murals on the patio are always amazing, the beer and wine selection are vast (also the mocktails!), and the decor always feels like your favorite “I Spy” book.“

“Best brunch spot ever!!! Highly recommend!“

“fabulous time Sunday at the Beehive. Sonny was an excellent server and the food was great, his recommendations were right on. Highly suggested.“

“If you’re looking for well-known dishes without unnecessary fuss, but prepared to absolute perfection, this is the place to go. Unfortunately, the service felt a bit unmotivated. However, the food was so outstanding that it still fully deserves five stars.“

“Fantastic food, service and atmosphere! A must try for dinner in the Boston area 🙂“

“Get those awesome skins back…..“

“We were very pleased with our first time dining experience. Food was exceptional and our waitress was right on target with everything! We would highly recommend this establishment 😋“

“This company fires employees over nothing, due to mangers latent laziness, and refusal to back up there emploees. a good bricklayer made about 350 in the early 1980's @ chubbs tequila bar your local 7 iron workers had there charter revoked in philidelpia, I wonder why the landmark doesn't have a social media“

“The food at the Shy Bird in Fenway was absolutely delicious, especially the Chicken Dunks with the homemade sauce dips they were all so good we couldn't choose a favorite and the butternut soup was absolutely incredible, with its little kick of spice and sunflower seeds! Our server was top-notch,very attentive, friendly and made excellent recommendations. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a special occasion. The flavors were perfectly balanced and the presentation was beautiful, and the staff was friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a great dining experience. We are looking forward to our visits this summer during the Red Sox games.“

“I booked an early dinner for my husband and I and two other couples. We were all walking towards Boston Common to see Commonwealth Shakespeare's production of As You Like It after dinner. The location of Blu is perfect for seeing theater in Boston. The food is always so good. My friends and I commented on how we enjoy having multiple options on the menu that we really want to try. And the service is consistently excellent. Lastly, the view is fabulous from the fourth floor. You can see right down Avery Street towards the Common.“

“Nice space, attentive and friendly team and great food. Highly recommend.“

“Friendly service and amazing food! My daughter had the grilled organic chicken sandwich and I had the mixed greens and arugula salad-- both were delicious. Our server was knowledgeable, and several other servers double checked on us and greeted us as they walked by. We will definitely be back.“

“Great place for date night.“

“great spot to grab a beer waiting for train or bus. small plates available for food“

“Great tapas / quite filling“

“Good music and drinks lol“

“Food was great the view is phenomenal the only thing I did not like Is the fact we had a reservation for a table for 5 And the waiter could only accommodate a table of 4 with the 5 th on the side facing the wall For this reason I give it a 3 star passing note fair enough I think“

“This was my Daughter's birthday weekend and we wanted to Take her to one of the places that Guy Fieri Visited for DDD...making memories. What we got was so much more. Truthfully the Best dining experience we have EVER experienced. The hostess was super friendly and immediately made accommodations due to the fact that I am currently in a wheelchair. The atmosphere was astonishing!!! The food...we truly cannot say enough good things about an are planning when to take the trip from Vermont again to get more. We were blown away . However the highlight of our evening hands down was our Server Kevin!!! He made my Daughter's night ...focused on making her smile and gave her a piece of cheesecake to celebrate. We will remember this forever and simply cannot thank you enough“

“I have been a Seaport resident since 2018 and I have never received the level of customer service, attention to detail and overall care that I received from Scott at DIG. My food was promptly provided and the level of taste and satisfaction is unmatched. No other Heathy restaurants in the Seaport area can hold a match to DOG food and service. I am not impressed easily as I have never ever written a Seaport review but I would being doing DIG an injustice by NOT giving credit where credit is due. DIG employee Scott is a great assets to DIG for it is his professionalism that will bring me back with friends! Thank you for a great Wednesday lunch...see you soon.“

“Excellent food and brilliant staff. Turned a bad experience of being stranded due to a cancelled flight into a much brighter evening.“

“Fabulous food. Great coffee. What more can you ask for???“

“Delicious and friendly place“

“What an amazing place. In these times when we are still not comfortable dining indoors this place rocks. The chef behind these dishes knows a thing or two about bringing beer garden food to a totally new level. Thank you chef and staff in front of the house.“

“Great experience, amazing service, and even better food“

“My friends and I went to Delux yesterday for dinner prior to seeing a show. We loved the environment, loved the food, and I probably had one of the best salads with house-made vinaigrette that I have ever had in my life. Will definitely be back to try more drinks/food when not on a time crunch. Thank you for your service! :)“

“Awesome good food and awesome prices! Kid friendly and everybody is chill!“

“This restaurant has a cool sports bar vibe while also having an upscale dining atmosphere. We ordered mango chicken, mahi, and crab cake. They all taste fresh, tender, and juicy! The portions were big and the service was great. The only personal flavor preference is I wish the dishes could have less salt. Overall, a relaxing experience!“

“This was one of the finest dining experiences we've had. We've heard about Giulia for months now, reputed as one of, if not the best Italian restaurant in Massachusetts, which meant we had extremely high expectations going in. Combined with the difficulty of getting a reservation due to the popularity (with many nights waiting at 12am sharp hoping that I refreshed fast enough), and finally we had secured a reservation. The food is heavenly. We ordered the erbazzone and grilled rosemary flatbread for appetizers, and both were so delicious— especially the erbazzone, which was probably the tastiest appetizer I have tasted. I still crave it as I am writing this, and my girlfriend feels the same way. The flatbread was also amazing, though the erbazzone trumps almost anything from the night. My girlfriend ordered the vegetarian bucatini, and I ordered their famous wild boar pappardelle. Both pastas were excellent, though not as standout as the appetizers. It was really nice to note that they deducted the price for the vegetarian pasta from 28 (which would include meat) to 18, which we really appreciated. Finally, we ordered the yogurt panna cotta with beach rose, toasted coconut and winter citrus for dessert. Oh my god, this is the greatest food I have tasted in eons. My girlfriend thinks it's the best thing she has eaten (and we're both very judgy with food!). Neither of us had thought we would enjoy anything rose-flavored so much, with the taste recurring with each bit of saliva, slowly dissipating with time. It is as if rose bloomed in our mouth, slowly melted to our tongues, and withered away as we bit away and let it wither. The sweetness gave way for the rose, and the rose enhanced the coconut and yogurt tastes. We should have ordered another one. Overall, this was probably one of the top three meals in my life, and certainly best in the New England area. I HIGHLY recommend everyone to go, and honestly it might even be better to just order appetizers and dessert“
