“We’ve lived in the greater Boston area for over a decade, and without question, Joyful Garden is one of the best Chinese restaurants we consistently return to. In fact, today, Lunar Chinese New Year, felt like the perfect time to finally write this review.
We came in to celebrate and once again were reminded why this place is so special. The food is outstanding, authentic, flavorful, and with an incredible variety that keeps us coming back year after year.
What truly sets Joyful Garden apart, though, is the people. The owner and manager always make us feel like family coming home. The team has clearly worked together for a long time, and that continuity shows in the warm, attentive service. Over the years, we’ve celebrated so many family milestones here, and it has become a meaningful part of our traditions.“

“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!“

“The first time as a European tourist in Boston, of course, was also on my wish list to try a "lobster roll" for the first time in my life.\n\nOn a walk to the harbour, I came across JAMES HOOK & Co, where I was simply approached by the charming house, the decoration, the planting and the information that it was founded in 1925. \n\nMy credo is always "If a business has been on the market for such a long time...they know what they are doing, do it with passion and just have to be good + if someone values the external design, they also give value to their food and will prepare it well and create an appropriate ambience for them to shine and taste".\n\nUnfortunately, I had to realize that I was there three minutes before closing time, the employees were in the middle of cleaning up and cleaning. So I took a heart and asked one of the employees if I could still order a Lobster Roll quickly as it would be my last day in Boston and I would like to try a Lobster Roll once in my life. So he asked a colleague, who in turn went into the house and asked someone there. \n\nHe invited me to come in and I quickly ordered the original ...which I received within a minute and ate outside.\n\nSometimes simple compilations can be so good...even if you as a European can't imagine that at first and initially feel pity for the lobster that landed its triggered meat in simple mayo on a warm light simple bun...but honestly: \n\nIt was really delicious...and the composition was coherent. \nThe lobster meat was of very good quality...you could just taste it. It was nicely mixed with the delicious majo and pulled through, plus the warm bun....simple but damn delicious and authentic. \n\nI can wholeheartedly recommend it...and obviously many others. Because as I only read later, when I looked around on their website, JAMES HOOK & Co even received several awards.\n\nBesides, it is an owner-managed family business in the third generation..and such businesses that are an original and bring a lot of work and passion to their actions, I think it is important to support!“

“Had a great time again! Went to celebrate another birthday which is always fun. We were really impressed with the grilled octopus as it was tender and tasty (one member doesn't even like octopus, but really enjoyed this). Ostra has definitely become a staple to our fine dining places to go for celebrations.“

Every aspect of the meal, from the creative drinks to the delicious appetizers to the fantastic main course was outstanding. Our server, Alex, was attentive and very pleasant. And last, but certainly not least, the beignets after dinner were spectacular. Looking forward to my next visit!“

“Delightful wine and oyster bar with excellent service by Jonathan. Great white wine selections. We enjoyed the crab toast, the anchovies, and the lobster spaghetti which was terrific to share as well. We started and ended with oysters! Great local neighborhood feel!“

“Very busy chinese restaurant with good quality food, slightly on the pricey side but really delicious. Many vegetarian-friendly options available, huge portions and very friendly staff. Highly recommend! Worth the wait of the long lines during rush hour. Sometimes they offer a voucher discount if you buy prepaid dining credits.“

“My favorite hand roll place. Overall great food and speedy service. The handrolls are super fresh and come out quickly so everything stays fresh and flavorful. We ordered salmon mango, foe grais, miso butter cod and spicy scallops and all of them are really good. Highly recommend the spicy scallops. Our server Stelle are friendly, efficient, and keep things moving without rushing you. Easy spot for a really satisfying meal.“

“I’d been wanting something spicy and carb-heavy for a long time, and this place absolutely hit the spot. Great for sharing, with spice levels to suit everyone. We tried the snow crab legs, shrimp po’ boy, and lobster rolls — the lobster rolls were the crowd favourite!
It is on the pricier side, but totally worth it for the quality and flavour. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be visiting again!“

“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.“

“1st time here. Have driven by hundreds of times......not sure what I was thinking....it took figuring out that you can't get Alaskan King crab legs at Legal Seafoods to force me to try this place out. Took an order to go. A+ yes messy....very messy the middle Hot sauce was excellent and everywhere. Good fun. Shared as an appetizer and we all agree Good stuff. They have "All you can Eat" on Sat and Sun I believe for $30 so a great deal. We will try again. Tiny place maybe 10-12 tables so use OpenTable. I tried Boston they did not have anything for 3-4 days at 7pm. Also had a Brookline reservation. There are ~24 locations in 8-10 states.“

“Incredibly great food. Superb drinks. We came here for the first time about six weeks ago. Have been back every week! Very varied menu. Everything we have tried has been top
notch. Appetizers are excellent tuna tartare is the best I’ve ever had served with an avocado wasabi cream! . First rate steaks and crispy fries!!! Nightly specials are
fun. Tonight we had the pork Milanese, it was out of this world.
Even the atmosphere,
we prefer the bar side the lighting is perfect and the staff (Amina) are now friends!
Do yourself a favor and get here!!!“

“We were at JP Licks a few weeks ago and saw Bluefin across the street. It was new to us, and I checked out the menu on the website. My husband has A Thing for salmon BLT and frankly I do too, so when we saw that and salmon burgers listed we knew we'd want to check it out.
Yesterday we had our chance to go in for a late lunch/early dinner around 3 pm. We were the only people dining in, but other folks stopped on to get fresh oysters (and mussels?) to go. The atmosphere is pleasant; it's a small space, but they've made it feel airy and open.
The person at the counter was friendly and the service was great. I didn't order a drink with my sandwich and when I went back to him to buy a can of soda or something, he asked if we'd like glasses of ice water. (Not providing it by default makes sense to me, since some people don't want it and it's just wasteful then!)
I got the salmon BLT and my husband decided to try the burger. They came with a simple side salad of greens with a mild dressing, maybe just oil and salt? The sandwiches were delicious. The BLT was probably the better of the two but that's only because smoked salmon is so good. Whatever sort of bread they use on the BLT makes exceptional toast too.
The prices were comparable to similar fare in the area and the portions were good.
I didn't get any photos of the space or our food this time, but we plan to go back and will try to remember. I've seen a number of little places come and go in that location, but I hope Bluefin will be there to stay.“

“I want to commend the service of two servers, Nick and John. I was dining here for the first time with a business colleague who highly recommended the restaurant. Nick came and greeted us and my friend warmly and expertly curated a delicious meal with sold recommendations, providing constant care and attention. John also assisted us throughout the evening and was making sure we were well taken care of. They took the dinner to the next level.
Highly recommended the candied bacon and porterhouse with mashed potatoes. Will be bringing future dinner guests to this establishment.“

“I have been going to Grassfields for many years and have been very pleased. The past few times I have been there I ordered the broiled scallops and have been disappointed. The muscle on the scallops are not removed which are very tough to eat. Also I feel they are gritty. I am hoping that someone reads this and corrects the issue because Grassfields is a lovely place.“
“Absolutely fine dining at fair market prices. The staff was brilliant, the food well prepared, and the atmosphere wonderful. There's not enough praise that I can heap on Atlantic Fish. We had the whole fish that came with sides topped with a fresh Guinness. Everything was expertly prepared. Dessert was through the roof. Great restaurant, attentive staff.“

“The food here was absolutely delicious! 😍 Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor. The clam chowder and lobster roll are a must-try — creamy, rich, and perfectly cooked. 🦞
The only small downside was that we were a group of four, and one of us had to wait quite a while for their soup while everyone else was already served.
Still, the food was worth the wait — definitely one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Boston. Highly recommend this place! 💙“

“Pretty good roast beef. Colder beef than the usual NS beef but also cooked a little more which I like. (The typical NS completely raw beef grosses me out). You got to love the owner though. He's been serving beefs for like 40 years, waaay before they became a foodie fad. So if you say 3 way to him he'll look at you like you're a giant dork. I think its hilarious. But anyhow the food is pretty darn good for fast food. Oh and the prices are fair. He didnt jack up his prices 200% when 40-50% inflation hit over the past couple of years. He jacked up the prices to pretty much exactly what the inflation was.“
