Very tasty wings and big choice of beer on tab or bottle. Many screens for sport watching.

Came here with a group of people (around 8) for dinner and it was ok. Nothing really special about this place except that it is like any other place that serves burgers, steaks and a few other items left unnamed. Would I come back? Sure --for happy hour only! Good clean place in general. Recommend if you simply wanna grab a bite or a few drinks.

I was excited to try this place. I heard the burger was good. After a long day of walking in the seaport - we were hungry. We came in. Were seated. 20mins passed. No water. No waiter. No service. No nothing. We packed up our things and left.

First time I went there perfect service and wonderful salad. However the second time I went there the host a tall blond lady had a nasty attitude because I asked to be seated in the back. I work in a near by hotel and like to be seated away from view. She couldn't understand that. I use to refer a lot of my hotel guest here. But NOW all because of this one host I refer people to Da Claudio!

Stopped in here for drinks and a bite to eat before heading to Pier 17 for a concert. Pros: A/C worked great. $6 Stella pints during Happy Hour Classic burger was ACES. Nice and juicy with bacon and cheese and the bun was sturdy. It did not become a soggy mess until the last few bites of the burger. Cons: Asked for mild wings, they arrived on the spicy side. $18 for a Hennessey and ginger ale. GTFOOH Overall, I'd come back for the burger and Happy Hour Stella.

Michael is without a doubt the greatest waiter/bartender I've ever had. Exceptional service and very helpful. He always made sure we had drinks and was great at checking in on us. Not to be dramatic, but I would trust Michael with my child (if I ever had one), great restaurant and even better waiter. If you are at the Ainsworth in FiDi ask for Michael. I promise you will NOT regret it!!! Thank you, Michael!!!!!!!

Our group bought a bottomless brunch deal for 2 people for $40. Great deal - or so we thought. We were charged extra because the gratuity is calculated based off of all the drinks ordered. E.g. if you ordered 10 bottomless drinks that would be calculated out to $100 and then 20% of that is added to the total. So we had a large tip on our bill that was supposed to be around $120 was bumped up to $300+. Would NOT recommend this place for bottomless brunch - there are many better options. THE FOOD: We order steak which was an extra $4 for the bottomless brunch. I had a minuscule amount of steak it was only about 5 bites. DRINKS: As we kept drinking the bottomless mimosas they started to taste more and more watered down. Maybe the it is a placebo effect - but I did not feel like I was getting my money's worth at all especially after seeing the final bill. Would not recommend this place for bottomless brunch or for lunch.

AINSWORTH AIN'T WORTH! First off, upon entering the restaurant during brunch hours on a Saturday, a normally busy time, the restaurant was completely deserted. That should've been a red flag in itself, but my group had a pulsd voucher to redeem. The entire meal was fine up until the bill came out; drinks came out smoothly and frequently, they were out of bacon for an entree so offered to substitute it for something else, etc. However, when the bill came out, the total was somehow $298, when the bill should've instead been in the $100's. Upon reviewing their itemized receipt, it was revealed that they charged for service based on each individual drink ordered as opposed to the "$35 bottomless brunch" advertised on the menu. They based the gratuity on "52 mimosas, 12 apple spritzers, etc." It's not as if we ordered individual entrees and drinks; we ordered the bottomless brunch package. Multiple other customers at this restaurant also received the same issue and complained, but to no avail. Our neighboring table actually complained to us about the same issue! If every customer in the restaurant is complaining about this, clearly there's something shady going on. How is the supposed bill $140 but $298 after gratuity?! That's more than double the bill itself. We had no issue tipping for the base price of the food not including the voucher either. We tipped 30% of the base priced bill, not including the voucher, directly to the splendid waitress we had in cash; don't give any extra money to this terrible management. The restaurant is deserted for a reason; every customer that makes the misfortune of dining here never returns and tells all their friends. Do not come to this restaurant under any circumstances!

dont go here for bottom less brunch. they charge for every individual drink the gratuity that they charge you will be more than your entire bill

Honestly speechless..this place really dropped the ball. They charge their gratuity based on each individual drink. Get mimosas somewhere else this place is a pyramid scheme.
Unfortunately not the best place for accommodating vegetarians or vegans. We came here on a friend's recommendation who went to one of their other locations and ordered the Mac n cheese burger but swapped out the beef patty with the chickpea patty. Usually this is not a problem as chefs try to be accommodating with dietary restrictions. When we asked for the vegetarian swap at this location, the waitress was very hesitant and said that the cook there most likely wouldn't do it. So instead, she put our order in as the black bean burger with a side of Mac n cheese. It was very disappointing to say the least. We're grateful that we got anything at all, but we were expecting something else. Service itself was slow. It took a while for us to get our drink orders in and 15 more minutes for the waitress to come back and take our food order. It seemed that there was only one waitress on a Wednesday night right before July 4.

Went here after work with friends. It was ok. The bar is huge and they have TVs everywhere so you can watch from every angle. The food was just ok and the same with the drinks. Happy hour was until 7 which was good. They don't serve ice cream with their molten chocolate cake which was disappointing but the waitress was nice enough to make an exception. They charged $7 for a side of fries so keep in mind it's a bit pricey. The best thing on the menu was the macaroni burger to me.

My mom and I came here for dinner after work. Staffs were friendly and service was quick. The ambiance was pretty nice too. We decided to treat ourselves to a cocktail. So mom got the Fuzzy Navel and I got the Old Fashion. Both cocktails tasted great! For dinner, we craved burgers. So mim ordered the Classic Burger and I ordered the FiDi Burger. Both came with fries as sides. Mom and I decided to share half of our burgers. The classic burger was well executed, just the right amount of every ingredients to make it the classic burger lol. For the fidi burger, omg.... the first bite took me to heaven! So amazing!!! And the fries... omg crispy on the outside and soft on the inside!

Great service, good food, big space, nice decor! we had a group outing and were well taken care of by the events manager who organized a special area for us. Drinks were good and food arrived promptly. Good FiDi place (and without much attitude is a big plus!)

Lunch on business day, got table without reservation. Service was great, friendly, prompt and inviting. Tried brick pressed chicken with asparagus and wine reduction, it was flavorful, moist but well cooked. Crispy skin made it all special. Heard alot about fries so had to try that, and was not disappointed. Will surely return to try other things on the menu. Happy hour menu at the entrance also looked interesting and worth checking out another day.
