The lobster roll had huge pieces of lobster and was filled to the brim. It was like eating the sea - so fresh! It came with fries and cole slaw. I didn't care for the slaw because it has raisins in it. Hubby said chowder was good but not the best he ever had. DD liked her mac and cheese. We shared a Boston cream pie with no whip cream. We never had it before. It was pretty good with custard in the center and moist cake and not too sweet. Service: busy place. We waited about 40 minutes to be seated. But our server was very friendly and checked on us a couple times. Ambiance: great location by the water. We had an inside seat. Very loud bar experience. Parking: we parked in a lot not too far down on the same street. They do not validate.

Had a really good experience at Boston Sail Loft. My wife really loved it . The waterfront…read moreatmosphere already sets the mood, but the food definitely made the visit worth it. We tried the calamari rings, lobster roll, and Sail Loft Cup soup. The calamari was crispy without being overly heavy, the lobster roll was the highlight for me, and the Sail Loft Cup was a great choice alongside the seafood. Service five stars. I also recorded some videos of the restaurant, waterfront setting, and menu so you can get a better feel for the place before visiting. Definitely a spot I'd recommend if you're in Boston and looking for a relaxed place for seafood with a great waterfront atmosphere.

Steak tacos are - as someone else has mentioned - to die for. My filet mignon was juicy and VERY tender. I mean, it was so easy to cut apart. I think the chef and whoever is making the food are really carrying this place. The hostess and our server, Alex, were also very very nice and welcoming. My dinner partner had the foie gras dish, and it was also great! I definitely want to come back. Just do not order cocktails, haha. The video I am attaching is of the very first dessert on the dessert menu.

Well we arrived in suits and dress clothes because it said "fine dining" but we were totally…read moreoverdressed at this establishment. Maybe I'm too old, but fine dining should involve that refinement. Stop calling yourself fine dining and call it expensive food with uppity servers and no dress code. Food was amazing- so please know I would absolutely go back for the food! We had lobster bisque, the best Caesar salad (top 5), calm chowder, shrimp and clams, lamb and a fillet. During our meal just after the lovely table side service of the lobster bisque my son accidentally moved the table with his feet and the drinks flew into my food. Our server watched it happen and walked away. She turned not to help but out of disgust walked the other way! The food runner came to the rescue! But then we were charged for another drink that spilled! I don't know but when your at fine dining and you get double charged for a table moving and treated like you are an inconvenience that gets me. Plus she was clearly angry with us. Food 5 stars, service 2, price for the service we received totally not worth it. Don't waste your money to get treated badly. Sorry kitchen but front of the house ruined it.

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! We had just arrived to Boston and we were starving so I didn't take photos.

Our team at Suffolk University has had the pleasure of hosting two major graduation celebration…read moreevents at Bostonia Public House, and both experiences have been nothing short of extraordinary. 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.

From the moment we arrived to the moment we walked out of the door, the attention to detail was exceptional. The food was absolutely excellent and worth every dollar. I had the steak frites and my husband ordered the halibut. Both were Fresh, flavorful, and well portioned. We also ordered a side of Brussels, crisp to perfection. The decor and ambiance are gorgeous. I had two cocktails: the lychee martini and the 1928, both were delicious and well portioned with spirits. The service was fantastic. We never had to ask for our glasses to be refilled, our waiter was attentive and professional. My husband had indicated on the online reservation that we were celebrating a birthday, and that was the only mention of our celebration. And yet when the dessert came out, it was a happy birthday, custom dessert. So without having to remind a soul, the team remembered and incorporated the celebration without having to be asked or reminded. Phenomenal attention to detail. One of the best dining experiences we have had. Already thinking about our next visit!

We got a bottle of still and it was tasty. I ordered a coffee and my bestie ordered a diet coke. The coffee was good but the cup in came in was tiny. I had to ask for a refill at least two times before I finally got one. That was kind of annoying. I ordered the BLT and my bestie ordered the burger. Each entree came with fries. I asked for the sauce - green goddess - on the side. I used it to dip my fries in - it was pretty good - very unique tasting. Both of our entrees were tasty - we enjoyed them till our plates were empty. We were too full for dessert but they did offer a menu. Maybe next time. If you're looking for a brunch place that has chill vibes and good service, check out 1928. I will definitely be back to try their cobb salad.

The only thing I have to say is that the bartender wasn't that attentive.

Probably highlight of the meal 2. French Onion Soup. 1/5. Not good at all. Very watered down. The broth was basically lightly seasoned water. Cheese topping lacked flavor. This was very disappointing for a French restaurant. 3. Mussels. 4/5. These were fresh and came with standard sauces. 4. Coq Au vin with pasta. 3/5 Came out hot but seasoning felt off and didn't quite it the mark. Service was good and it's in a cute spot. But Overall, disappointment with our food and wouldn't repeat.

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 .
