“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 is probably my favorite restaurant. I am usually really happy with what I order, and a few dishes (shakshuka and croque madame, nutbox, I'm looking at you) are my favorite foods anywhere. I have some constructive criticism though.First, ditch the round cafe tables. One plate takes the whole table, leaving no space for your friend to eat comfortably with you. Forget about setting your laptop up while eating.Second, some of the desserts need adjustments. Overall, anything lemon based needs more lemon and less sugar. When I bite into a lemon meringue tart or a pavlova, I expect to taste a bright, citrusy, refreshing curd. It's missing here - all I get is the intense sweetness of meringue.Overall, Tatte is great! Keep doing awesome things. Visitors should be sure to try the lemonade (best anywhere), the brownies (with nuts!!), and the shakshuka. Pear tarts and (when in season) stone fruit gallette are always a win!“
“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 A bit of an outdated concept at this point but it still seems to be working for them.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.“
“The menu is quite expansive, so this is a good catering option. I love middle eastern/Mediterranean food, so I’ve tried a lot of different places in Boston. Compared to other places, I wouldn’t say Sultana’s makes the cut for my favorites, but it wasn’t bad.- Spinach feta quiche: The portion size is good, but the flavor was bland. I wasn’t able to finish it.- Cookies: The cookies weren’t overly sweet, which I liked. They were crumbly yet soft.- Fruit yogurt pastry: This was my favorite. I liked that they are bite-sized (though, this is also dangerous because you’ll end up eating a lot). The pastry was flaky, and the yogurt was sweet, which balanced the tartness of the fruits.- Caprice acma: I wasn’t a fan of this. The acma was too doughy. Maybe it would have tasted better warm.Happy to have tried a new place, but I probably wouldn’t come back.“
“Mangia Monday is one of the best food deals in the city- $80 for 2 salads and 5 full sized pastas for 2 people. The food is always incredible- amazing flavors and textures. The eggplant parm is one of those dishes you think about for days. Phil was our server tonight and he was so great. He was knowledgeable, kind, and didn’t make us feel rushed at all. Great vegetarian options, they always are very accommodating for dairy and gluten allergies. Highly recommend!“
“This is the most Authentic French Restaurant I’ve tried in Boston. The food is generous and smells and tastes like a Sunday at my grandmother’s. The staff was amazing. They even offered us their Mousse au Chocolat for my friend’s birthday. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. ?I loved the maxi profiteroles and the salmon. And the bread was warm and fresh.They also do vegetarian options!French or not, you must try it.“
“We were welcomed in and they made excellent suggestions me and my son home from college. Also I left my wallet behind ( never happened to me in 56years) They had it for me with a smile and over $400 cash. Left a nice tip and I thanked them , I told the I would leave a review. Genuinely nice people work hereThe coffee drinks were amazing. Go there it's right behind Pho Hoa same bldg very nice space .“
“Nice spot, great vibe. We sat at the bar on Friday evening and were greeted by 2 very nice bartenders. The calm chowder and calamari were fine. We decided to share the seared cob. It was just ok. Not a lot of taste. It was too thick for my liking. The fixings were a bit too funky. I don't think the value is that frigate money.“
“Their honey maple tables, spacious rooms, and plush seats are a haven for anyone who appreciates a genuine speakeasy for enjoying a good drink with friends. As someone who doesn’t drink, their juniper belt is my go-to, and it is zesty. The distillery itself is in a pleasant part of town, as the staff is so friendly and wants you to truly enjoy yourself.“
“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!“
“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.“
“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.“
“We live in the neighborhood and visited Lazy Bear after having dinner at a neighborhood restaurant. The staff was so nice to me and my daughter. They gave her samples of the ice cream...which she LOVED. She got cotton candy ice cream. It tasted just like cotton candy but without being clowingly too sweet. It was delicious. I'm not a big fan of sweets, but "When in Rome..." I got the black raspberry. Super delicious. My daughter and i both got "single" scoops in a cup. Lazy Bear's scoop is extremely generous. It was actually more like 3 scoops. They also have free sample of their hot chocolate... which was equally delicious. One of the guys told us his grandmother makes homemade fudge that they sell. You can smell the fresh cookies in the background. And, they make their own whipped cream in several flavors. Lazy Bear has our business from now on. Great products, great staff, no pretentious stuff, great variety, great store... they delivered on everything. We're already agreed we'll be back next week.“
“For my first visit, I tried the signature chocolate chip walnut cookie that started it all. $5.25 was quite expensive for a cookie, but the cookie was very heavy. I liked the crispiness of the outside and the thick, gooey center. The walnut taste was distinguishable but subtle. I definitely recommend heating up the cookie to melt the chocolate chips because it tasted better that way. However, it also tasted fine at room temperature.The inside had a cool mural of Boston but no seating. However, there are seats outside, which would be nice in the summer. It was empty when I went, so service was fast.“
“Lobster roll was fantastic, the clam chowder was excellent, and the lobster bisque was a debbie downer. (No flavor nor pieces of lobster present ?). Service was quick, parking is bare minimum behind the building close to 7 spots. Seating was very tight maybe 6 tables. If you wish to purchase a live lobster you can choose it out the tank. When I return to Boston, I will return for more menu items that struck my interest.“
“FRIDAY 3/8/24. The Manager Gene call me was very apologetic. Gave a refund for my orders. It’s a very popular seafood restaurant and unfortunately things happen. The big thing is they acknowledge the problem and took corrective action to make me a satisfied customer. OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE!Friday 3/1/24 I drove 29 miles for 42 minutes to get Seafood from this restaurant. A few weeks ago I ordered 2 3lbs live lobsters, because I couldn’t get live Lobster that size at my local seafood stores. This time I wanted to try to fried seafood. I ordered the skipper’s platter (fish, shrimp & calamari). Also order a 3 pound live lobster. I wanted to substitute the calamari with scallops. Of course, I was informed that it be extra charge. That was not an issue for me. When I drove back home, realize that they upgraded the skipper’s platter to the captain’s platter (fish, shrimp, scallop’s & clam bellies). The shrimp was delicious. The fish was bland - no taste. The scallop’s was huge, but when I bit into one of them got a mouth full of sand. Try another one same results. My total bill was $142.49 tip included. I try calling on 3/2/24 (Saturday Morning) to speak with manager/supervisor no one was available. The service was excellent. Also the atmosphere was good. My server (Mike) was outstanding. Not Happy with my Meal!“
“Busy but delicious. Had a walnut rose and pistachio croissant, both were delicious. The best part though was their house Latte - honey and halva flavour - I came back again the next day for another. Very busy, couldn’t find a place to sit but was happy to walk 3 minutes to Boston Common in the sunshine.“
“You all must try this place!! The gelato is just simply amazing!! There isn’t anything simple about the taste. The flavors are so robust and exquisite! This is one of those places you try and then take everyone you know every chance you get. Highly recommended.“
“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!“
“I have walked by this establishment everyday to/from work for the past three weeks and always notice how busy it is on Friday night’s. Tonight I decided to stop and have drinks along with dinner after a very stressful work week. This place is truly a hidden gem.I started out with an espresso, martini and a “Snack” Deep Fried Olives with blue cheese. Delicious!!Next, I had an “Appetizer” Pork Belly with citrus marmalade. Not disappointed!!Another expresso martini and ordered Expresso rubbed salmon with arugula and maple glazed sweet potatoes for my main entree. One of the best salmon dishes I’ve ever had. I saved half of the meal so I could have dessert. Ordered tiramisu and another espresso martini. Excellent food and drinks.The atmosphere was very soothing, and a great way to unwind after a long week at work. Mary Beth, my server, was very attentive to my needs, and the bartender, the other staff, are constantly working as a team, to make sure their patrons were well taken care of.By far one of the best experiences, I’ve had so far in Boston area and highly recommend a couples night out, a solo dining experience, or coming as a group. I will definitely be back before I head out of town.“
“My partner and I had a lovely dinner here. Food came out fast! The eggplant appetizer (pictured) and the spinach stew were fabulous. The mushroom shawarma was also good but a little rich for my taste. I'm already planning my order for the next time I visit.Also very impressed with the beer list.Nice people.Would love to see risers on the clear chairs because the seat to table ratio was a little off.“
“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 ❤️“
“Beautiful place but the food was flavorless. I was really excited and the bowl looked truly amazing but the flavor was missing. Perhaps it needed more salt. From 1 to 10 I think it had a level 2 of salt. I wonder if it’s because it’s a healthy restaurant. However, I prefer dishes with more salt because it brings out the flavor. In this case, the bowl had lots of great ingredients but since it was SO low in sodium it literally tasted very plain.I would say though that the place is really nice. I liked the atmosphere and would be willing to give it a second shot trying their the açaí bowls!“
“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.“
“This gem is my go-to cafe. The food and drinks are delicious and they have healthy and unique options. It is very clean, cute, and they play good music. The staff and owner are very friendly. It's a great cafe for reading/working as it doesn't get too loud.“
“Great brewery with a fairly small selection on tap, but always a well curated one. The space at Bow Market isn’t huge but there’s usually a spot open. The bartenders are very friendly and kind. They don’t serve food but you can order food from any place literally steps away and eat it there. The trivia on Monday nights is really fun and well thought out!“
“We visited for coffee and a light dessert after brunch across the street. As you would expect on a Sunday early afternoon the place was lively and very busy yet we were able to get our order in after a short wait in line. Some of our company were more particular about things and their particularities where satisfied quickly and without issue. Very impressed with the hardworking staff thank you very much!“
“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.“
“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.“
“This was our first time and it was great! My husband saw this place on a show and was dying to try it. We made a reservation at the bar for 5:15 (they open at 5:00..place was full by 5:20)The bartender was attentive, knowledgeable, and pleasant - not over bearing but there when we needed them.The food….the menu was a little overwhelming for me. We ordered a total of 6 small plates. The flavors were amazing.The only reason I gave it a 4 star for atmosphere was my own preference - it was a tad to dark for me (very dimmed lighting)I highly recommend and can’t wait to go back and try more amazing plates.“
“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.“
“Nice, clean, convenient local place with kind attentive staff. Nice selection of beers. Join fo I d is cooked in the pub but the Pub has Mexican food available from the adjacent nexixan restaurant which delivers to pub customers. Would visit again if in the area.“
“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“
“Only just realized I've been coming here for 10+ years but have yet to leave a review. Small, family owned business with love & effort put into everything coming out of the kitchen. Great spot for breakfast & lunch during the week. Highly recommend a breakfast sandwich in the AM or a spicy pork plate for the afternoon! Love supporting Bonne Chance Cafe, thanks ya'll.“
“My family and I were visiting Boston this past weekend and made it a point to go to Flour Bakery. I bought the Chocolate Mousse Cake, cinnamon roll, chocolate cupcake, raspberry filled donut and croissant for us to all taste and every single thing was amazing!“
“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 “
“This is my number one spot to go. The people who work there are so kind and so knowledgeable and really into growing and developing their fantastic business. They work so hard and they strive for excellence and making their customers happy. That’s why they have returned customers. I love this place. The quality of the drinks are above the moon!!! Thanks D and B! They deserve the best because they work so hard and everything is fresh and they love their customers and it shows“
“Finally, I tried a breakfast sandwich from Mike and Pattys in Bow Market. It was delicious and loaded with flavor and ingredients but the sandwich wasn't too messy to eat and the bread didn't get too soggy even with the different sauces.I'm not exactly sure why the sourdough bread was an extra dollar vs the multigrain because they looked pretty much the same, but I do recommend trying it out!“
“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!“
“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.“

“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.“
“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!“
“We stopped by on a Saturday night, brought some takeout food, and had a nice chill night. We tried four different beers which were all great! Service was friendly and fast. They had a live band which was fun. The indoor space is very cute and there were plenty of spaces to sit. It looked like there was a small parking lot but plenty of spaces on the street, even though it was pretty busy inside. Overall it was great beer and a fun eclectic vibe! We will definitely be back!“
“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“
“Our server was very sweet and very prompt. All my requests to exclude specific ingredients were met. I got the Wagamama Salad with tofu and my partner got the Spicy Pork Ramen and they were both great. We understand that the food here isn't authentic, but wanted to try it and still thoroughly enjoyed it!“
“It is one of the most beautiful coffee shops in Boston. I loved it. It is delicious. Its coffee is delicious, clean. The smell of Bakri is delicious. I tried their black coffee, apple pie, and flat white. It was very delicious. I will go back to it again and try their breakfast.. I am writing this summary for the Arabs so that I can benefit you “
“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.“
“This is such a lovely cafe!! The prices are great and food and drink tasty! And the atmosphere is fun and beautiful! We were visiting family and took full advantage of Evergreen as a morning fuel-up. Thank you for your awesomeness Evergreen Cafe????“
“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.“
“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!“
