    a crowd of people watching a concert
    Bea T.

    The number one place for free entertainment All Summer Long. In addition, this is the best place where they run a lot of fundraising events. I love the fact that they have free classical performances every Wednesday during the summer. On certain weekends, they have radio concerts like Oldies 103.... Loved seeing the Beach Boys and Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. They also hold cultural festivals like the Bollywood Festival and everyone's favorite...Boston Pops on July the 4th which is the most crowded so get there early. If you have young kids take opportunity to attend the Free Friday Flicks! And if the movie is lousy, the kids get to run around towards the playground nearby. They have food vendors around serving typical fastfood like fried dough, ice-cream, hot dog and burgers.

    This is One of the cool perks of living in a city. I never know what to expect when I stroll past this place on the esplanade. Some nights there are free Zumba classes, other weekends there are free concerts, and the the 4th of July is kicken wih the Boston pops! It gets crowded, but what concert venue isn't?

    Gather your friends, grab a blanket, prepare some picnic food, and head over to the Hatch Memorial Shell for some fantastic outdoor live music! It's located right by the river, so take the T to Charles/MGH, walk across the bridge and ta-dah, you are there. I came here recently for Earth Fest 2012 with some buddies and had a great time. I left the place feeling slightly burnt and toasted, but was glad I got to experience some great outdoors with live music and great company.

    My family had the best evening at Grace for my aunts birthday! The food was delicious, the service…read morewas excellent, and the overall atmosphere was grown and sexy.

    Starting with the most important part- FOOD: If it's a table…read moreshare, you'll have to order multiple apps. But all the apps were cooked very well, delicious. Ribs perfect, glad they were meaty pieces and not scrawny bones. Entrees: (and yes I tried all!) I am a steak fiend and was expecting more from the pallet but it was just eh OK. Salmon was dry and bland wish it was paired with a sauce and side dish but it was a big portion of just rice and fish. The BEST dish was the creole pasta and the two piece. I was not expecting that two piece to be the entire fowl! It was huge and tasty, not dry, biscuit was sweet and moist ! But the entrees are a good portion ! Ambience: Chic music lounge. Atmosphere is nice. It's a small/tight place, the pictures make it look bigger. We were a party of 6, sat at a booth. So some will have their back towards the stage but there's a tv screen of live view. Service: waitress was nice/attentive until it got later. Then it was harder to get someone to our table. the place turned more into a full lounge. Singer/band: perfect Drinks- kudos to the bar tenders: just right! Mixed well! Gratuity and an entertainment fee are included in the bill. Would I go back- YES
