“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.“

“My wife and I have enjoyed the Restaurant scene in Boston privately and professionally for over thirty years. Right now Aqua Pazza is my absolute favorite spot in the city! Aqua Pazza is kicking on my all three important points. Food, service and ambiance. Simply, I love the place!!!“

“Excelente servicio q nos dió Lily !! Los mariscos riquísimo y la paella también ! lo recomendamos al 💯. love it !! Definitely we will go back.“

“A group of us just went to Puritan for it's Clambake and we will definitely try to this again next summer. The quality of the food was exceptional and the cook on all the different seafood was perfect. It was such a fun experience and absolutely worth the money.“

“Amazing food. Don't miss out on the pasta dishes or the bread. They actually make for great sharing apps. The staff is so nice and welcoming. Drinks are delicious and unique.“

“The oysters were fresh and i enjoyed the ambience!!!“

“thy are just so good sea food“

“Took my wife for her birthday, along with our daughter. Having been to Peru before and really enjoyed the flavors, we were excited to try this out. And the food certainly didn't disappoint. All of the dishes were very flavorful, including both the mango shrimp ceviche AND the vegetarian ceviche (which was something we didn't get in Peru!). The Causa reminded us of our time in Peru, and both the Peruvian Chinese eggplant and the cilantro lamb stew were very good. The former was a bit milder than we expected, but still delicious, while the latter was superbly seasoned with lamb that melts in your mouth. On the drinks side, we had a passionfruit sour, and the Chica sour and both were delicious. The dessert was their fruit mousse which was also excellent. We were seated outside as it was a nice summer's day, so I can't vouch for the interior. The service was good, though it did seem that one of the waiters wasn't particularly thrilled (either about serving us, or in general). The one who took our orders though, was polite and detailed and pointed out the vegetarian options for my wife and daughter. Keep in mind that this is NOT an inexpensive place. The items range from $17 for an appetizer to the high 30's for the main courses. But for someone craving for something different or just very flavorful food in general, this would be a great choice. I can see why this shows up on many of the lists for best new spots in the city. Highly recommended!“

“Amazing as always and we love every menu they have ❤️ and Tristan is really nice 👍🏼 👍🏼“

“Best restaurant in Boston area. Great staff, amazing owner and the best food!!!“

“We booked the private dining area and had a great experience. Service was great and we were not rushed at all. Food and drinks were good and the overall booking process with Zoey was easy and transparent.“

“Delicious seafood options and fresh oysters!“

“everything wonderful service food atmosphere“

“Great oysters. The wine list is great, and service was friendly and professional. The problem was the entrees. Both the halibut (in coconut and saffron) and the crab gnocchi were bland and lacked flavor. They weren't very big either.
I would come back for more oysters and maybe give it another shot.“

“Possibly the best chowder/seafood spot in Boston. I’ve been going here since I was a kid when my dad would take me to Celtics games. We’d always get chowder and oysters before. The food has not changed and is always as flavorful as ever. When I’m at school I come here at least once a week cause it’s my favorite spot. I also have spent half my life in Maine so I know a thing or two about seafood. Come to this place!“

“its a pretty good place, I really had a nice time“

“Our favorite date night restaurant!! We love Berry Tavern! Great food, great drinks and great service!“

“Awesome food!! Awesome people! ❤️❤️“

“We had such a great dinner here! The crab cake was an excellent way to start, and both the clam pasta and tuna tartare were fresh and delicious. We added the Brussels sprouts on the side, which were also really tasty. Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. The whole meal was consistently good from the first bite to the last. Definitely a place I’d happily come back to and recommend to friends.“

“EXCELLENT service and fresh food!“

“500 Ocean is a beautiful property with some amazing amenities. It is in a great location, surrounded by ocean views, restaurants and very accessible to the T, literally right below the building. My husband and I had a great experience living here and had rarely any issues. The main issue we had at move-in was addressed and we were even offered a small gift for the inconvenience. I love the maintenance staff and they are always so pleasant and helpful. One of my favorite parts of living here was having an in-house fitness coach/ personal trainer- Cienna Jade! She is so amazing to work with and has really helped me along my fitness journey. It was so convenient having her come to the 500 Ocean gym, which is one of the best gyms I've seen in an apartment home. She conducts 1 on 1 sessions and will literally work with you on scheduling a time that's convenient for you as well as offering group or couple sessions! Overall, very pleasant experience!“

“This place is incredibly kind and friendly. We dined in this restaurant on the last day (July 31, 2026) we stayed at Harvard university during my daughter's summer internship period. I accidentally broke my whole glass of Hurricane drink, and my left hand was cut and bleeding, the staff extremely cared about me by providing band-aids and medication, as well as replacing my drink with a free glass of Hurricane.“

“Food was awesome and service was excellent too“

“One of the things that makes this place special is the owner. His passion for good food and taking care of customers really shows. A perfect example is his incredible Vodka Chicken Parm sub a Wednesday only special. The vodka sauce takes it to another level and it's honestly one the best sandwiches around!“

“My 100% go-to for hot pot. Sauce bar, all-you-can-eat, huge menu, and great service. What else can I say? You’ll be eating within five minutes of sitting down. Also, don’t forget the to-go ice cream if you eat in! Ibasaw checks all the boxes when it comes to hot pot.“

“Dear Turner Seafood Team, We would like to express our sincere gratitude for the exceptional service provided by your team. Our employees Christmas bonus of local fish was well received and greatly appreciated. The hand-delivered, well-packaged fish showcased the professionalism and customer support we were looking for. Jeff's assistance during this busy season was invaluable, and we look forward to the possibility of working together again in the future. We highly recommend Turner Seafood, especially for large orders. Thank you once again. Best regards, Team Insideout Health and Wellness“

“Lovvvved it! Water views make all the difference! Food & drinks GREAT.. but our server Alexa… Was EVERYTHING!“

“Went with friends this last weekend and had a great time. Service was top notch, food was well prepared and tasty, drinks were creative and delicious. We’ll be back!“

“Just went to the soft opening thanks to Professor Ed's story post on Instagram.
The uni butter sauce was a little too salty for me, but the rest of the flavors with the umami briny uni flavor were luxuriously blended and balanced. I absolutely loved the Moonlight Kiss cocktail—Tasted like the Chinese chrysanthemum tea juiceboxes (iykyk), cold, refreshing, and strong. I didn't finish because I forgot to ask for light liquor even though I'm a lightweight.
Tuna tacos were delightful—would've loved one or two more for $16 appetizer. Clam chowder was definitely good by born&raised New Englander standards. Clams were sweet and tender, never rubbery.
Yuzu tart curd was a bit sour and not set in the crust, but I would've rather less lemom juice than more sugar added. Brown butter pecan ice cream was divine. :)
Service was lovely and attentive. We had Samat, iirc, and he was one guy doing hosting and waiting.
It's a bit pricey, but the care for quality is visible.“

“My favorite North End restaurant. The food is Fabulous and the menu offerings are plentiful- I can never decide what to try. The staff is tremendous. They make sure you are satisfied. Great restaurant!“

“Todo muy bueno y la atención de primera“

“i’ve eaten here at least 50 times while living in medford.“

“Our party of 14 had the wonderful opportunity for the private room Sunday June 5th. The 50th anniversary party was treated royally by Ron and Sharon. Their service and knowledge of the entrees was spot on. The kitchen staff didn't disappoint! Everything about our visit just needed to be acknowledged! Thank you.“

“Great place, great staff and amazing food. Their pizza is as good as it gets.. But it’s tough to decide with so many great offerings.“

“Absolutely the greatest best tasting freshest largest most outstanding lobster roll we ever had. We have gone there so many times and as soon as we are done we can’t wait to return. The owners and staff are wonderful and friendly. This place is a win win!!!!!“

“AMAZING FOOD & ATMOSPHERE!! The Mongolian Beef is incredible!!!!“

“Wow. Judy's Bay has been around for 5 years, and it's my first time! What a shame as it is a fantastic gem of a restaurant! It has a very Japanese feel, but the menu is a fusion of Asian dishes. Ma po tofu, tuna hand rolls, scallop crudo, and a side of Kim chi were all so tasty and intensely flavorful! Then we had a lobster roe pasta that was the star and absolutely delicious amd mouth watering! I am definitely going back with a group of friends to share this amazing experience!“

“Muqueca Restaurante é simplesmente o melhor dos melhores restaurantes com a melhor culinária de comidas típicas Brasileira que tem aqui 🇺🇸! Tudo de primeira qualidade feito com amor ! Atendimento excelente, preços não vou nem falar,somente vocês indo lá para comer e saberá! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
