    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.

    Wonderful food. Nice atmosphere. Cute macaroon delivered with the bill. Next to the Ritz Carlton. Great for pre-show dinner.

Salty Pig Pizza: A pizza with the same name as the restaurant! Who was the genius who came up with the idea of ​​salted pig and beer caramel? It's brilliant! The salted pork appears to include Prosciutto di Parma from Langirano, Prosciutto Cotto, and Salcissia. Baking rendered the prosciutto's fat, which blends with the caramel to create a beautiful golden syrup that flows across the pizza's surface. The prosciutto was savory, oily, and tender; the minced salcissia retains its coarse texture and rich meaty aroma; the caramel was sweet and mellow with a honey-like sweetness, forming the top, middle, and base notes respectively. The arugula was slightly warmed, losing its astringent and raw taste while maintaining its crisp texture, helped to cut through the richness together with the Parmesan cheese powder. The crust was crispy, while the inside the dough was soft and chewy. The cooking time and seasoning were all just right, and the restaurant's proud wooden oven added a charming smoky flavor. Affogato: I had high expectations, but it was just okay. The espresso was too sour, and the vanilla ice cream couldn't balance it out. The almond biscuits had an overpowering almond flavor, and the flavor of plant-based protein was terrible! (Oh, this should have been a plus...)

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 .
