    We stopped in for breakfast. I have eaten here in the past breakfast and it's always a solid choice.. staff is always so friendly, professional and attentive. Inside is immaculate with a modern design

    Steak Frites $59.00 prime New York sirloin strip, oyster mushroom, compound butter, handcut steak fries, truffle aioli
    Corey W.

    Reserved a spot for NYE and was rather let down. Our server was friendly, but we would wait 15+ minutes between each beverage (solid drinks, classic $22+ cocktails). The overall atmosphere was fine, nothing terrible but for their prices I was expecting a bit more. Our food came out at a reasonable time, but was underwhelming. My lobster roll was disappointing and rubbery, and my mashed potatoes were cold. My partner bought the steak frites, and it was not warm enough to melt the butter it was served with. We also ordered two desserts, and finished neither of them. Each dessert was $9, and were decently sized to be able to be shared by two people. For how much this dinner cost, it should have been much more memorable for great taste instead of disappointing flavor. Overall, average food and drink for a price point that it does not deserve even remotely.

    Before attending the last show of Les Mis, I found Artisan at the Ritz for a fancy birthday dinner. Nicely appointed restaurant with a peaceful air. The wait staff was friendly but not greatly efficient. Were they short handed? The table beside me waited way too long for their food. I'm glad I gave myself 2 hours for the meal. It worked out ok. I had the mushrooms as an app (interesting but meh on flavor), the short ribs (came through as melt-in-your-mouth and best thing of the dinner), the asparagus (partially tough and flavorless), and a crème brûlée (ok but not exact) to finish my meal. I did enjoy the rich Australian Cabernet Sauvignon, although 2021 was not greatly aged. What I thought would be an outstanding experience was just .. good.

    Convenient restaurant located in the Ritz Carlton. Our waitress, Sandra was amazing. She remembered our kids name and really made us feel welcomed. Breakfast Menu: Kids chocolate chip pancakes - perfect size of pancakes although my kids never finished the whole thing. Vermont yogurt - delicious Crispy bacon - delicious Bagel & cream cheese - a bit expensive but son loved it Cereal - son was happy that Sandra ordered fruit loops for him! Dinner menu: Lobster roll - delicious and the french fries with truffle oil was amazing (my son switched fries with me) Kids chicken tenders & fries - the kids loved it so that was great Service - the lady serving us was really nice The restaurant is convenient and when my kids are too lazy to walk to get dinner, this was our go to place. As a bonus, the staff was amazing. We can't wait to come back.

    Artisan Bistro is the whole package: simple delicious food, delivered by seasoned hospitality professionals like Noelle, in a beautiful modern atmosphere. We enjoyed a fruit platter, oatmeal, breakfast sandwiches & a kale Caesar with possibly the best Caesar dressing I've ever had. We were celebrating a football win and Noelle even brought us a celebratory dessert! She couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming. We will definitely return to Artisan Bistro!

    Mussels
    Caroline H.

    Fantastic attentive waitstaff at this bistro. The mussels were fantastic. The red cherry tomatoes were delicious and also the mussel too. The sour dough bread was good too. The truffle fries were made for 2-4 people. They were garlicky good.

    Oysters
    Karen N.

    **this review is for the $1 oyster happy hour special (4-7pm) Conveniently located on the ground floor of the Ritz, this place was a great find for $1 oysters! On the day I visited, there were 3 varieties of oysters. I don't remember the exact names, but I enjoyed the two larger oyster types more than the smallest of the 3. I went with a group of 6 and we ordered 3 dozen, which was perfect. And for $1 per, you really can't complain. We also ordered 2 baskets of fries which were such a delicious complement to the oysters. They were dressed with parsley, a sprinkle of cheese, and perhaps a bit of truffle (?) - whatever seasoning it was, the fries couldn't have been more satisfying. Our servers were helpful and attentive. I will say that the overall environment and service felt a little stuffy/overly formal, but then again, it's the Ritz.

    Although neither I nor my DC are particularly impressed with Artisan Bistro, their Winter Dine Out Boston menu and relatively convenient location won us out. LUNCH MENU $25: 3-COURSE MENU FIRST COURSE BABY KALE CAESAR White Anchovies, Brioche Croutons, Caesar Dressing BURRATINI Basil, Heirloom Tomato, Beets, Toast SECOND COURSE BRAISED SHORT RIBS Cauliflower Puree, Smoked Fingerling Potato, Red Wine Jus SCALLOPS Agli-Olio Tagliatelle, Beet Tops, Shallots DESSERT IRISH CREAM GELATO Add Espresso +$4 WELCOME TO THE RITZ DUO Boston Cream Pie, The Ritz-Carlton Signature Cake We shared both RW entrees while each ordering the Burratini and Ritz Duo. The first course was refreshing and had a nice contrasting crunch from the thin toast slice against the cool tomatoes and creamy burrata. The short rib was tender enough, but the scallops were the small bay type and there was a pool of oil lurking beneath the chewy pasta. Our dessert arrived dressed up, but tiny. Slices of both cakes were thin, and a little dry. This was the most disappointing course. I guess I ought to have tried the gelato. Even the bread served warm rated higher than this dessert.

    I've been wanting to experience Yvonne's for the longest time, so I thought, why not finally go for…read moremy birthday? Unfortunately, the experience didn't start the way I expected. My birthday was noted on the reservation, but there was no acknowledgment of it when I arrived. I'm not expecting a grand celebration, but for a place with such a classy, trendy, upscale reputation, I expected a warmer welcome and at least some acknowledgment of the occasion. To me, service and hospitality are a huge part of the dining experience, and that initial welcome just didn't set the tone I was hoping for on my birthday. A heads-up if you're driving: there isn't parking immediately nearby, so expect to walk a little. Also, pay attention once you're on the street because GPS can be a little misleading when trying to locate the entrance. Thankfully, our server, Alexia was great! She was very kind, sweet, and attentive. I actually had to tell her myself that it was my birthday, and once she knew, she did what was necessary to acknowledge it and make the occasion feel a little more special. I really appreciated her for that. The food was good as well. I didn't end up trying any of their cocktails, which is unusual for me, especially during a birthday dinner. By that point, the overall experience just hadn't put me in the celebratory mood I had expected when I chose Yvonne's for the occasion. Maybe my expectations were higher because this was somewhere I'd wanted to visit for so long, but hospitality matters to me, especially at an establishment like this. Amanda helped turn things around, and the food was good, but the overall experience still left me disappointed. Will I come back? I'm honestly unsure.

    My coworkers and I had an amazing experience at The Salty Pig in Boston!…read more From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was lively and inviting. You can immediately tell this place takes pride in what they do, especially when you see the chefs in action. Watching them work with the freshly made dough and expertly handle the pizza oven added such a fun and authentic touch to the experience. The food was absolutely incredible. The pizza was hands down one of the best we've had--perfectly crisp crust, fresh ingredients, and full of flavor in every bite. We also ordered the cucumber salad, which was refreshing, light, and the perfect complement to the richness of the pizza. Everything about our visit felt thoughtfully done, from the quality of the food to the energy of the space. If you're in Boston and looking for a spot with amazing pizza, fresh ingredients, and a great vibe, The Salty Pig is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back!

While the kitchen delivered a solid meal, the service was so profoundly disappointing that it completely overshadowed the food. The culinary side of things easily earns a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars. We ordered a wide variety of items to share, and the highlights included: * The Pizzas: Creative flavor combinations with fresh, high-quality toppings and fantastic crusts. * The Bucatini Pasta: Perfectly cooked and packed with rich flavor. * The Asparagus Appetizer & The Chicken Milanese: Both executed well, flavorful, and cooked to a high standard. Unfortunately, the front-of-house experience was uniformly horrible. For a large party, hospitality can make or break the night, and our server missed the mark at every single turn: * Argumentative & Dismissive: He actively argued with our host regarding an appetizer that had been ordered in advance. When asked about vegetarian substitutions for a sold-out pasta dish, he curtly replied, "Pasta with butter is all we can do"--despite the fact that we could clearly see a wide variety of fresh vegetables being used right on their pizzas. * Inattentive: Dirty dishes piled up on our table, and when we politely asked for them to be cleared, he claimed he needed to get help and walked away completely empty-handed. Our drink orders were rarely checked on or refilled. * Rude to Guests: He displayed visible attitude and put-off body language whenever anyone asked a simple question. This peaked when he was outright rude to one of the young women in our party who simply wanted to put her order in a bit early because she had to leave before the rest of the group. It is a real shame because the ingredients and the kitchen's output are genuinely good. However, between the hostile attitude and the lack of basic service standards, we unfortunately won't be rushing back.

I ordered a draft beer from a large selection of drafts and bottle, cans options. It was Jack Abbey beer... pint came 3/4 full as left a large head on beer and better for establishment pours 12-14 oz in a 16 oz glass.. Beer was warm... bad demerit again Ordered steak tips which came with three large tips on a bed of mashed potatoes, spinach . It had some sour hot nasty pepper garnish.. I wanted roasted red or green peppers with the tips instead. Steak tips were just ok and needed a marinate or side of a dipping bbq sauce or mushroom sauce or anything. Spinach, mashed potatoes needed more butter or garlic flavoring... fresh tasting but bland. Needs more steak tips too for the price tag. It was a nice bar vibe for drinks. The chicken wing lollipops I saw for an appetizer looked tasty. I left hungry for more steak tips and wanted a charcoal char on my tips . I wanted my spinach on the side with a garlic oil next to sone grilled oil drizzled roasted peppers . I don't consider these some of Boston best but certainly not the worst .

I ordered the steak frites cooked to a perfect medium with a deep, salty crust. It was tender enough to melt but had that essential beefy bite.

    Great meal to end the upper US marathon vacation!!…read more We had no idea where we may end up eating but the trusty Yelp app led us to another victory dance!! Yay for Yelp!! We had just cruised the nearby mall center thingy and were hungry on our last night in Boston. We saw the sites and did the things. Boston is a one of a kind place for sure. This was the choice. It was a great choice! Beautifully decorated and oh so chill inside. We have a thing that we do at places with great appetizers. We just order a bunch of those and feast. That's what we did here! We started with some raw oysters. They were very nice indeed. Island Creek Oysters from Duxbury MA. is where they came from. We love the little local Junts a lot and had them all over the northeast while we were there. We also had Crab Rangoon Dip. Very good, lots of fresh lump crabmeat, with a house chili crisp, scallions, and wonton chips. Loved it! They we had some fantastic mussels to close the deal! The flavor was amazing! I wish I could have them every single day! We also had a bowl of BPH Clam Chowder. CC is one of my favorite things and this place did not disappoint in any way! Delicious!! The server was great.
