My friends and I stopped in here on a our first night in Boston. It was Friday night and a random…read morefind. We just happened to park across the street and noticed the bar but it was closed until later in the evening. We did did our thing and explored the area and decided to check out this spot before leaving. It's a little unassuming from the outside with the words Local Bar painted on the wall, but the little neon flamingo sign lets your know you're at the Flamingo. Walking in, the vibes were cool. They have this retro 80's Miami thing going on. It was cool. That's about all that was cool though. Customer service wasn't all that. The staff seemed more interested in their regulars. Since we walked in and used their facilities we decided just to have a shot and keep it moving. The shot wasn't even all that good. If it weren't for the cold customer service, we would have potentially spent alot more money here. It's a one and done for me!

90s music. Delicious hamburger. Crispy waffle fries. Downeast cider. Excellent service…read more Gwen, a bartender, was pleasant and very helpful since it was our first time there. We went with her recommendations and will definitely be back. Forgot to take pics but the fried pickles were great. Burger was juicy and delicious - forgot the name but the burger meat was a blend. We ordered a duck taco type appetizer. Not a taco because it was tucked in lettuce and not hot but the flavors were a nice blend. It's something I'd expect to taste at some Seaport spot not at a friendly neighborhood hang out. Pleasant surprise. I'd order it again. My friend was wearing her birthday sash so they brought her a cupcake and sang :) A lovely neighborhood gem we will definitely return to.

By far THEE BEST CLAM CHOWDER EVER!! We also ended up getting the lobster roll and holy moly, did you see how much lobster is in that roll?? Unbelievable!! So worth it!! I also never had a boston cream pie before (i know, bummer) so i thought, why not try it here since their lobster roll and clam chowder is superior! Boston cream pie did not disappoint! It was not as sweet as it looks but sweet enough! The service was amazing per usual! Our server is super attentive and even though it was super packed and busy, our wait was only 15m. And ambiance is nice too because it's by the water. Overall, HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!!!! Everything was 10/10 PERFECTION!!

Totally worth the hype!…read more Came here for drinks with friends and was blown away with the creativity of the cocktails and the warmth of the staff. This place is tiny and you need to fight for your life for a reservation but it makes sense why it's so popular. The drinks are spectacular and the staff are extremely knowledgeable and will guide you through the whole experience. Will definitely be returning!

We had a wonderful visit to Farmacia for the Korean chapter…read more The cocktails were masterfully formulated and Susie was such a delight throughout the evening, being able to chat while also preparing the drinks. The other couples during the seating were lovely as well. Things I loved: *pay in advance--you pay when you make the reservation so you can just leave at the end *the cocktails--among the best you can find in boston. You can taste the care that goes into the menu preparation. *the service--we had such a nice evening that flew by Things of note: *the seating goes by pretty fast--for the volume of alcohol (3.5 drinks), the 90ish minute seating is too short. We ended up having to drink faster than we wanted to *the bar snacks--while tasty, they were teeny tiny. See my photo of the banchan--meant to be shared among two people. I was anticipating slightly more volumous snacks All in all, I totally recommend this experience and would definitely go back

Cute little dive bar that is a favorite for locals. I popped in here as a tourist while I was on a…read morepub crawl tour and we were lucky enough to get a spot at the bar. It really is very tiny, so just be aware that seating is sometimes limited. They didn't have too much on draft, thought some of that was due to the Scottish being in town for the World Cup the week before. We went with lemon drop shots, and the bartender was very transparent about the fact that he was out of most of his supplies due to the Scottish. No fault at all to them for that because that was the situation at every bar we went to. Service was friendly, the shot was nice and strong, and it was a nice little spot. Beyond drinking, there isn't really much going on in the bar in terms of activities, but there were TVs. So, watching sports here is definitely an option. I'd definitely say that this spot is worth popping in if you are enjoying a night on the town, but that it probably shouldn't be the only spot you go to.

I did return to this bar next time I was here! This place is still great almost 10 years later!…read more A lot more law enforcement patches have been added to the bar inside! Keep up the great service Durty Nelly's!

You have to enter the building with a small fox picture, go down a set of stairs and check in at the counter of said restaurant before they lead you into the back where the speakeasy is. The menu is "set" in that they have a particular cuisine focus for the night and the four food dishes are predetermined as well as the first drink. That being said, you get to order three more drinks from their cocktail menu that range from lighter to more spirit forward, ending with more dessert type cocktails. All the drink flavors were so unique and a fun twist. The food was actually very substantial. Good flavors as well. Our favorite dishes were the lamb cigars (large egg roll shape with eggplant and spices) and the whole branzino. Everything was good though. Service was a very friendly and they were open about the fact that if you didn't like a drink they'd make you another one.

Man I love this place…read more Reservations are a must and it is a little tricky to find. Look for the fox on the outside door and go downstairs. We sat at the bar and Ada was our bartender. She was great! Really enjoyed talking with her and she had great drinks recommendations. The food was delicious and very unique which was refreshing. Its a 2 hour experience with 4 drinks, 3 food courses and a dessert. You definitely wont be hungry after. Highly recommend for a date night.

We sat down at a booth. The older lady working there was behind the bar chatting with another lady. We sat and we sat. A couple of girls walked in and sat at the bar and were served right away. We sat some more. We waited ten minutes while the lady working chatted with her friend. We were not even acknowledged. We finally left and went to a different establishment to watch the game. We stopped at Eddie C's because of all the good reviews....not sure why we were not served...

Veteran Bartenders…read more What a time warp here. This used to be a very rough neighborhood, now it's fine. Eddie C's, the key here is the bartenders. Two older ladies that really made our night. We only remember Jennie. What a card? She was so entertaining and friendly and had all of the clientele under her thumb. I am assuming she's been a staple at this historic joint for decades. Great deals on drinks and beers, a very lively strange crowd, and the best bartenders. How can you ask for more? Besides Kelly Square Pub, this is the best bar in EB. Thanks
