I sampled the following drinks: Pimms Cup Fruity liqueur cut with ginger beer and lemon juice, so doesn't taste too sweet, begs for seconds. Louisiana Express Sweet punch, perhaps too sweet, but the guava plays happily with vodka. Whattamelon Bae Perhaps not always on the menu, but if you're in the mood for an ice cold slurry of watermelon and vodka, lemon and rosemary, you're in luck. Finally, and of course, the vaunted mac and cheese should be on every human's bucket list. Gooey and garlic infused. Cozy, great drinks, great music, there's nothing not to like here.

There is literally fun everywhere you look from the panda stuffed animal riding a tiger on the wall to the hilarious shrek pillow. Coming right when they open I was able to see these things that you would likely not see in the evening. But to be fair I came right when they opened since it is first come first serve. A majority of the drinks were more on the savory side which was very interesting like "may all your bacon burn" with bacon bites at the top of the drink. The drinks my friend had were all stunning with the use of egg yolk to elevate the drink. We ended the evening by walking over to Bow Market and trying Viet Citron which was so DANG GOOD my gosh. The to go orders were insane but looks like they are doing very well despite recently opening in. I got the grilled lemongrass pork ribs bowl and youtiao and the side sauce was so good. The ribs were all very meaty. It looks small but I was surprised how full I was after having it. Nice night of drinks and food.

The banana pudding stole the show though, it completely blew us away and might be worth the visit on its own. One small note: the restroom could use a refresh to match the rest of the space's cool theme, since the interior design is such a highlight everywhere else. Overall a fantastic spot for drinks, great food and a memorable atmosphere. We'll be back. Oh service was excellent.

Took a few looks through the menu and pictures of the food and this was the spot. The staff are incredibly friendly, we had a server who was from Honduras and shot out to him for being super friendly to us. He recommended us this big brunch meal that came with everything to share and we also had some fried yuca tacos. Everything was incredibly savory and a very fulfilling meal. La lenador came with carnitas, eggs, cheese quesadillas and churro. It was enough to share with 3 people along with an order of tacos that I did not get a picture of sadly. But every thing we ate was amazing. I also had the Paloma cocktail and it was a great drink to complements the meal and the vibe of the restaurant. Would love to come back here again someday if I ever visit Boston!

Their bouncer checked my ID, wished me a happy belated birthday and said I could either be seated outside or find an open seat by the bar. I opted for the second option. I came in and told the bartenders I was already buzzing and trying to enjoy my last night in Boston. From their recommendation, I ordered the steak quesabirria - top knotch recommendation because as someone visiting from California, I really enjoyed this plate. I also had two rounds of the Broken Heart margarita, and got some calamari to go. Vibes are immaculate here, music choice for the nightly setting was on point. Customer service was superb. And for a restaurant/bar as crowded as it was, the restroom was so clean.

When you come in, its a smoke shop, but when you head up the elevator, you're let out into this cool little vibe of a place, that makes you feel like you're in a speakeasy! The vibes were vibin, the lights were down low, they music was full blown 90s rnb and hip hop, and just let me tell you, the staff was legit! They just knew what to do, and did the thang! All the drinks we tried were absolutely delicious, I don't even know what I had, I just said make something great and they did! The bartenders were great with checking in on everyone. The doorman and another guy who was in and out of the bar were great with checking in on everyone, making you smile, and the overall atmosphere was great! We of course, talked to everyone, and made friends while we were there. Great way to start off our New England tour!

This rooftop bar is…read moretucked away in a space with probably less than 30 seats, which is nice to create than infimate feel. My boyfriend and I sat at the bar hoping to grab a drink and apps. We learned they don't have food here but that was okay. I was feeling adventurous so I decided to order the surprise drink made for you by the bartender. She asked me what type of alcohol I liked, and what sort of drink I wanted. I mentioned soemthing sweet with a tequila. She ended up making me this peach drink with milagro silver tequila. I asked her to name it and she landed on "peach spritz". It was really good my boyfriend even kept taking sips. Drinks were a little pricey but you're also paying for the rooftop. The view isn't anything crazy as it's only 7 floors up, but the fact that it's so peaceful and private makes it worth it. I really enjoyed my experience here and would come back.

Once you get in, there's a small lounge area on the left and then a larger lounge area straight ahead where the bar is. They have small tables with couches and local artwork ond display. For their drinks, their mixed drinks are average, but they only had 3 beers on draft which was a disappointment. They do serve some bar food and snacks, but like the drinks they're overpriced. I've been here twice and there's usually a wait for the rooftop. Once on a Saturday I was quoted up to a 3 hour wait that was actually 45 minutes and on a Sunday it was a 15 minute wait. I put my name down and got a friendly text when my turn was up. The view is pretty good, but not the best since it's not by the water so it's mostly looking at the city and large apartment complexes. The rooftop is small with 4-5 tables, a TV, and some seats. It seems like they allow around 40 people in at a time. Overall, this a cool place to hang out with friends this summer!

Who doesn't love a Penthouse bar?…read more After you enter Yotel, make a left to the elevators. Once inside, hit that shiny PF button and enjoy the ride. I like how it is set up like a lounge, where they have couches available for big and small groups. You can also just sit at the bar to grab a drink. There are also tables on the terrace, but it is not always open during the winter months. When the door is unlocked, it is worth checking out the view for a couple of minutes. The bartenders can be a bit hit-and-miss, depending on the night. I wouldn't take that personally. Just order your drink and focus on your company. They will come around like 15 minutes before closing and asking you to close your tabs. Supposedly their lobby bar stays open later than 11 PM, but my friends and I tried going then got turned away by the lobby bar as well. I have always had GIN CRAZE $14 (Beefeater gin, lemon, simple, raspberry puree). It is pretty solid.
