    Came here for dinner this past Friday night. We had no reservations, we were able to walk right in for a table for two. I had the Dreamy Clouds sake by the glass. My husband had a Sapporo. We split the following: Spicy Tuna Roll - basic and delicious Green Monster Roll - I believe this was a special. Pretty spicy, fried and I wish I had paid more attention as this one was like $10 more than the spicy tuna...but it was vegetarian. Sizzling Steak & Noodles - very fresh and high quality ingredients. The staff was friendly, the ambiance was beautiful and it was a cute little date night.

    (Disclaimer: This is a 3.5-star rating, since Yelp doesn't do half stars) We came to Mystique for a night out before wandering the casino. The space is chic and stylish, definitely a "see and be seen" kind of spot. Service was straightforward and efficient. With five people in our party, we got to try a good spread. Appetizers: Miso Black Cod - Good, but not the best I've had. Flavors were mild; nice, but not memorable. Salt & Pepper Calamari - Crispy, well-seasoned, and a solid portion. Spicy Salmon Rice Bites - Underwhelming; lacking flavor and the rice wasn't as crispy as it should be. I'd skip next time. Hamachi Usuzukuri - Refreshing yellowtail sashimi with ponzu and chilies, but the fish lacked richness and depth. Mains: Wagyu Tomahawk Ribeye - Cooked beautifully, and the radish ponzu sauce paired perfectly. That said, about a quarter of the steak was untrimmed outer fat, making it inedible which feel like a waste for such a premium cut (and money) House Fried Rice - One of the surprise highlights. Flavorful, well textured, and paired nicely with the steak instead of the usual potato sides. TikTok Chicken - Essentially a pricey General Tso's. Fun name, but flavorwise, you can get it anywhere. Bottom line: Cute atmosphere and a few solid dishes, but with the competition in the area, Mystique won't be our top choice. We'd return if we're already in the casino mood, but not as a go to dinner spot.

    Great food and fun vibrant atmosphere! Service was definitely lacking, but they were very busy on a Saturday night.

    Very nice place with very nice staff!! It was a bit loud on a Saturday so if you don't like noisy restaurants it's not for you. The food was delicious as were the drinks. Not too pricey for what you get. Definitely recommend for a date night or night out with friends.

    When we walked in the host gave us an option of sitting in the bar/lounge area or dining area. Definitely a different depending on your choice. The bar is loud with tvs and you can watch the chefs cook in an open kitchen so a very cool experience. We however opted for the dining area. We were brought to a large booth for just the two of us which was very nice and it overlooked the garden. Our server was so fast and extremely attentive. Our food came out extremely quickly and I was very impressed. Things tasted great. I would say that what we worded however had tons of salt. Not for someone with high blood pressure. But the taste was great for us! Cocktails are pricey but expected $20-$23. Tasted good but didn't blow me away for the price. All in all was happy to have had experienced Mystique and would come again.

    "Lobster" fry rice.

    I ordered the lobster fried rice, but it was really hard to find lobster in it. When I asked my server, she said she had checked with her manager and that "this is what it is."And then left. It was so weird.

    Went to Mystique for our anniversary and had an amazing time. Our waitress Princess was an absolute sweetheart and provided exceptional service. Food was excellent as well. Our 2nd time going and will be going back again when in Boston

    Nice place! Very cozy spot with a nice vibe. Staff was very nice, we closed the restaurant but never felt rushed. Singapore noodles were yummy with tons of scallops and more. Great flavor. Sushi was good albeit average. I was interested in much more on their varied menu so we will come back next time we're at the Encore for sure.

    Poke was delicious - the highlight of my meal.
    Navin K.

    Mediocre experience given the expectations I had for my first dining experience at the Encore. I was seated at a corner table in the back, right next to the kitchen entrance, though there was plenty of other space. I was too tired to complain, and famished having just flown in from the west coast. I ordered the calamari and cauliflower appetizers, then the poke for my entrée, and added a lo mein at the servers recommendation. The calamari ($30) and cauliflower ($18) were generous portions and tasted like I expected them to. The poke ($25) was small but delicious, probably the highlight of my meal. The disappointment was the lo mein ($29) - I left it untouched after a couple of nibbles. Service was indifferent, and the meal was pricey (well over $100), so Mystique only scores a three star for me.

    I had a great experience at Mystique for NYE. The food was amazing and the service was spectacular. We were sat in one of their rooms toward the back which was nice to be away from the noisier bar area. Cocktails were delicious but definitely on the pricier side. My favorite dish was the Spicy Tuna Rice Bites - a must try!

The menu is enticing and leaves you wanting to try multiple of their house cocktails (all which have been really solid) and the staff is good at helping you decide what drink to get if you're unsure. Some of my favorites are the golden banana, what's new pussycat, and electric kool-aid acid test. Also their daiquiri time out (dto) is always a good option if you're looking for something to order for the table, to get the night started. The atmosphere is gives off speakeasy vibes, but is also very unpretentious. It's a place where you can relax and enjoy yourself without feeling out of place. From my experience, the crowd seems pretty young -- not necessarily college students but more like young professionals -- and it can get pretty lively when it's busy -- not overwhelming bar vibes, but more like a nice cocktail party / social event. This place remains a go-to spot when planning a night out in the Cambridge area!

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.
