    Nice location with great scenery and window views of local architecture and street people watching. Plenty of seating. We dined here on Thursday night September 25, 2025. SERVICE: Host was interesting - not super friendly, but got us seated relatively quickly. We got a seat by a window - so we'll call that a win!! Our server was very nice, but seemed a little overwhelmed. After our first drink we kinda got ghosted...they brought out an entree with no explanation as to why only one person got food. Eventually after we told them no one else got food, they realized they did something wrong and our food came out after some more (patient) waiting. Not impressed with the service. FOOD: Here is where it made up some goodness. The food was well prepared and very flavorful (worth the wait? Not sure) but, very good. The drinks were also very good. They could have just been having an off night on service.

    Gnocchi, Mushrooms Burrata-Ricotta Tortelloni
    Desiree B.

    I REALLY wanted some fantastic Italian food to end our trip in Boston. We were within walking distance from the park and the reviews on Google were high - 4.4. I should have checked Yelp per usual. 3.9 stars as of this moment. I try to stay away when it's below 4 because I know how picky I am. We shared everything, per usual, to try more. We started with the tomato soup and beet salad. The tomato soup was savory and delicious. One could hope for more crostinis with goat cheese of course. The beet salad was strange. I feel that it needed to be served atop greens. The fried goat cheese balls on top were what I liked about it. For entrees we did the split versions of the tortellini and the gnocchi. The gnocchi direly needs a little sear. They are so mushy. The flavor is good but the texture is so bad. The tortelloni was under al dente. You could see that the pasta was not cooked through when cutting it on eat. Unfortunately, our server was also the bar tender so he did not make it to our table to offer fresh cracked pepper or freshly grated cheese for the pasta. I think that may have made it slightly better but the massive technical errors were a huge let down, especially at the price point.

    Starting with wine and popovers.

    I've always liked this space and figured it would be fun for New Year's Eve esp since they were serving their regular menu. It was a zoo and our 8:30 res came and went even tho seats were empty at the chef station. There was some reason why they didn't want us there but that's where we ended up after 25 min. That was the not great part, all the rest was 5 stars. Hostess was nice, our waiter was zen calm and sweet, the line cooks were a machine, delicious popovers with our nice pours of wine, chicken liver app was enough for two and def better than the signature steak and cheese egg rolls. My gnocchi w mushrooms and truffle were about $28 and delish. Friend loved his lobster risotto (seemed a tad soupy to me). We had food to take home and even the always orders dessert person couldn't manage. I need to go back much sooner.

    Went for cocktails and a quick bite at the bar. The bartenders were so accommodating, finding us 4 seats together and setting us up with cocktails. The bread that arrives with the food was so good! Like a huge popover. We shared a beet and goat cheese salad, and a huge half order of pasta with an absolutely delicious ragu. Would love to go back for an official dinner!

    Short ribs, side of Mac and cheese and asparagus
    Iris S.

    While visiting Boston we were looking for somewhere to get a very late lunch after trekking the entire Freedom Trail. We were parked not far from Davio's and decided to give it a try since we were STARVING. They had plenty of tables when we got there, I want to say it was about 4pm on a Wednesday. No reservation was necessary. We could see right into the kitchen and the staff was mainly standing around talking and it seemed they were all eating too? It was a weird dynamic. The bartender wound up being our waitress and did a decent job. But I had asked her for a sangria- which was not on the menu- and she said she would make one. I unfortunately received a $20 spritzer. I have never had a fizzy sangria- and cant say I care for it. Next time I know just to stick with a glass of wine like my husband. We started with some chicken parm eggrolls as an appetizer- they were excellent. Wish there had been one more! All of the sides are a la carte which is not my favorite, but they market it as being very "customizable". My husband had a filet, I had the short rib. We split a side of the asparagus and the mac and cheese. Both entrees were good, the mac and cheese was phenomenal. We agreed the best one we have had at any restaurant. They gave us a little macaron as we were leaving - which was a nice touch. However was the meal worth $250? I don't know about that.... We found out afterwards that we have a Davio's location near us in Texas. But for the price there are a lot of other options that are just as good.

    Carpaccio was. Delicious
    Timothy A.

    Had an absolutely tremendous meal here! Everything from the bread service (gf bread was amazing), to the service, to the entrees, and sale room for a gluten free diner was top notch. The steak was a top 5 steak for me.....just incredible. Ambiance was appealing to "the old School steak house diner" as well as those that like a trendier look. Hard to pull off, but they did! Highly recommend

    Gluten free pizza at Davio's... Excellent sauce and cheese, but the outer crust  is like a hard, dry breadstick.

Given the choice, however, I now prefer the modern, polished, almost clubby feel of this location in the Seaport. The restaurant isn't particularly large, but it's a beautifully designed space. For larger groups, they have a few round tables that work especially well, including one that perfectly accommodated our party of seven. You can always count on a great dining experience at any of Chef Jamie Mammano's restaurants. His commitment to the highest quality chow, attentive service, fine wines, and an elegant atmosphere has made him one of Boston's most respected restaurateurs. Our meal here was spectacular. The cocktails were perfectly crafted, and it's hard to go wrong with anything on the menu. Standout starters included the Wagyu Beef Dumplings, Tuna Tartare, and the Dry-Aged Bolognese Lumache. For entrées, we shared several different cuts of steak, all expertly prepared and presented sliced for the table. The Beef Wellington is also fantastic here. The sides are uniformly excellent, but don't miss the Char-Roasted Heirloom Carrots with Honey and the Yukon Gold Potatoes. Desserts are equally impressive. Highly recommend both the Milk & Cookies and the Bananas Foster. I'd like to especially thank our waitress, who provided exceptional service and helped make the evening truly special. We were celebrating my son's graduation, and her warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail enhanced what was already a memorable occasion. I also appreciated the excellent service from their new sommelier. Mooo continues to set the standard for the modern Boston steakhouse experience. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I will say Service was SPECTACULAR. All the staff were friendly, accommodating. Alex our server was knowledgeable about the menu and very attentive. The best bite of the dinner was undoubtedly the wagu dumplings, they were rich but well balanced. The octopus appetizer was over charred, the burnt taste was the top note, making it bitter. Sadly, our mains were also charred/burnt. The steak for the steak frites, we asked for medium well, but was really charred, again taking away from the taste. The branzino skin was burnt and the capers that came with it so charred to the point of being dry, charcoal dust balls. The French fries and mashed potatoes were well executed as was the au poivre sauce. Dessert was impressive, the bananas foster can easily serve 3 or 4 people, I loved the brûléed bananas and the presentation was beautiful. Overall, there were some standout dishes but if an appetizer and a dessert overshadow the mains, something is amiss.

While the beautiful venue, incredible food, and attentive staff certainly deserve recognition, the true reason these events have been so successful is Rob, the Events Manager! From our very first conversation, Rob has been an absolute professional and a genuine partner in every sense of the word. Planning large-scale celebrations can be complex, but Rob makes the entire process feel effortless. He is responsive, thoughtful, detail-oriented, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure every aspect of the event exceeds expectations. His commitment to hospitality is evident in everything he does. He took the time to understand our goals, our students, and the significance of these celebrations. It is rare to find someone who combines professionalism, expertise, and warmth so naturally. The Events Team and staff reflect this standard. Every member of the team has been welcoming, accommodating, and dedicated to providing exceptional service. Our graduates, families, faculty, and staff consistently leave talking about how wonderful the experience was, and that is a direct reflection of the culture of hospitality Rob has cultivated. If you are considering hosting an event in Boston, I cannot recommend Bostonia Public House highly enough. Ask for Rob...you will quickly understand why he is such an incredible asset to the organization! His dedication, professionalism, and genuine care for his clients set the gold standard for what event hospitality should be. We are already looking forward to being back next year.
