“absolutely fantastic! went and got breakfast for dinner and loved it so much. i got the cinnamon roll waffle which tastes just like a fresh baked cinnamon roll, and my dad (who's not vegan!) got the stuffed french toast and loved it! would recommend for vegans and non vegans alike“

“I came to the Hummus Shop for a quick lunch before heading to a flight.

It’s a fairy hidden place, but there’s a sign on the street — you just have to go down the hallway. It’s a cozy spot with limited seating.

It was my first time here and the person working at the front was very helpful in ordering and walking me through the menu. They have a few main options based on their proteins. I got a pita with the eggplant. It was great!!! They were very flexible in making this vegan by replacing the egg with a couple of falafels.

Great food to go and it was delicious as well, the sauces were especially good. It was messy to eat but that’s what makes it fun!

Would definitely recommend, I hope to be back to try the vegan “chicken” as well.“

“amazing food. INCREDIBLE service. can not say enough good things about my experience there last night.“

“I attended an event yesterday at this amazing Restaurant. The atmosphere is so inviting, the drinks were delicious. Food was absolutely scrumptious. And the staff all so kind and friendly. I highly recommend stopping in for a cocktail or dinner, you won’t be disappointed!!!“

“Giulia was amazing. Fantastic service, incredible food. From cocktails and the semolina cake sfizi which was the perfect small bite to start to the three desserts we shared around the table (affogato, orange blossom panda cottage, strawberry semifreddo) that generated debate over which was the favorite, every bite and every sip was thoroughly enjoyed. I will tryntonget a reservation every time we make it back to Boston!“

“not a single dish disappointed!! the gnocchi was definitely the highlight of the day - it was so tender and blended really well with the veggies. we liked the sweetness in the crispy pork ribs, and the asparagus was great too. would also recommend the cocktail with the gochujang element in it — the spicy aftertaste was super special! everything was amazing, would definitely come back again :)“

“We took a friend out to dinner at Oleana last night for her birthday and it was one of the best meals we’ve had. We loved being able to share and sample so many dishes, and each one was a masterful balancing of herbs, spices and flavors. The service was also top-notch. We can’t wait to return! It’s no surprise that it’s hard to get a reservation.“

“June 2026
Absolutely outstanding brick oven pizza! We ordered five different pizzas and a charcuterie board for a group of eight, and we destroyed every last slice. Crisp, delicious, and bursting with flavor. Highly recommend this place.“

“Had dinner at Lucy's while adventuring and it was hands down incredible! Everything was outstanding. The staff, the food, the environment, right down to the ice cold water and beer! 🤣 I will definetly be going again, because I wanted everything on the menu! Thank you Lucy's!“

“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 tapas / quite filling“

“Delicious vegetarian/vegan and gluten free friendly food. The Gobi Manchurian Cauliflower is delicious.“

“We had an incredible experience at Grill 23 & Bar — easily the best steakhouse we’ve been to in Boston. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The food was phenomenal. We ordered both the filet mignon and the ribeye, and each steak was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and truly outstanding. The sides were just as memorable — the macaroni and cheese was rich and comforting, the Brussels sprouts were perfectly prepared, and the mashed potatoes were smooth and delicious. Adding the Béarnaise sauce on the side was absolutely worth it and paired beautifully with the steaks. Dessert was the perfect ending: warm chocolate chip cookies served with vanilla ice cream — simple, classic, and done flawlessly. A huge highlight of the evening was our waiter, Bernardo. We will absolutely be requesting him on future visits. He offered thoughtful suggestions, anticipated our needs effortlessly, and somehow managed to be there exactly when we needed him — and never when we didn’t, if that makes sense. Just genuinely attentive, professional, and welcoming service that elevated the entire experience. An unforgettable dinner all around. We can’t wait to come back.“

“By far the best, authentic Italian food in the North End. We have dined at several restaurants but the service, ambience and food is the best! They make their own pasta and sauces daily. I cannot recommend Casarecce enough. Delicioso.“

“Dining in a cozy yurt surrounded by freshly fallen snow was fun winter experience for our family. Great ambiance, and the food and service were exceptional. Highly recommend for a unique and memorable outing!“

“It matches the hype. The Sicilian Pizza is…perfect. There’s not enough superlatives to do it justice and if there were, even then it wouldn’t reach hyperbole. Craziest thing of it all is the pricing. Four slices, arancini, and a drink for $16.00? How? In today’s economy how are they keeping the price this low? Also amazing. Just go. Don’t think about it, don’t pass go, don’t collect $200…go get your dang perfect slice.“

“Amazing! Every bite was delish! First visit and will be back for sure!“

“Yummy! And dog friendly patio.“

“Took my 9 year old son here today for lunch When we were done, he said “Daddy, this is the best pizza I’ve ever had!” My 9 year old is a major pizza snob“

“This restaurant was exceptional!!!! The food was authentic, flavorful and delicious. The corn cakes were amazing. Price and service were excellent. We thought it was just take out and were pleasantly surprised to see about 20 people could sit down. If I lived here, this would be my GO TO! Thank you for a great food experience.“

“Great menu. Beautiful presentation of excellently prepared choices. Delightful competent staff. You’ll be lucky to have Carlos as your waiter.“

“Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

“Words don’t accurately describe the best chowder I’ve ever had. And doing so in a cozy dockside spot by a window overlooking a snowy bay and pier. You’ll have to experience it yourself, and do so frequently!“

“Stopped by here during a work trip and can 100% say I will be back! thank you guys for the amazing food and service!!“

“Very Energetic! Bartender was fantastic“

“May 2026
I was anticipating an amazing wagyu beef burger given the $35 price tag, but it was very ordinary and forgettable. It was cooked well-done even though I asked for medium-well, and it had absolutely no flavor, not even a hint of salt and pepper. The fries were dry and not very good either. But the corn bread was absolutely delightful and probably some of the best I’ve ever had, and the pita bread with hummus and pimento cheese was delicious, as well. Overall, about 4 stars considering the appetizers saved the day, as the wagyu burger was a flop.“

“Food and service are excellent!“

“the Opa Greek yeeros the best In Boston and the deserts are delicious and after all this frappe cafe my perfect diner .“

“Ambiance and ambiance and beer and beer“

“Absolutely love Juicy Greens in JP! 🥰🥰“

“Excellent, creative, tasty and healthy food in a very welcoming and relaxing space. Wish you would open one on the South Shore!“

“One of the most flavorful meals I’ve ever indulged in! Love the vibes there, and that everything is healthy and organic. Impressed that the prices weren’t too high either! Was just traveling through Salem on vacation in September & glad I found this place. Highly recommend. (Pictures are of the Rainbow Harvest bowl and Blue Magic Smoothie) - which had a kick to it, but tasted like Christmas.“
