late night walking around Boston after walking around Boston all day and the realization we've not eaten except eggs and meats and toasts and fruits at breakfast so victuals are high on the list of things to get followed by home - actually Tina's place but whatever... so around the corner and across the street from the sideshow that is Faneuil Hall we find some tables outside a bar and ask for menus and a jug of water. decided on oysters (tina always eats well on my dime) lobster roll for MLB, and a burger and fries for me because the other thing I wanted (fish and chips?) was not available. no complaints about any of it except maybe was a little steep but it was late and the bar is attached to a hotel and it's Boston and not at all out of line all things considered. service was warm and efficient and we were never left wanting attention or coffee for me. the portions were fair and my burger came out extra medium just like I like it with substantial fries to boot! plank fries suitable for seafaring, you could almost walk these if you had to. no complaints from the ladies, just muted sounds of tastinesses amid the small talk. so yeah, I'd eat here again. read more

Chicken was extremely overcooked and not good. Menu is incorrect in various areas and you are not served what you order... The server took a very long time to take order and brought incorrect food when serving. Definitely a GREAT bar and very good alcoholic drinks but not a great restaurant.... Food is average.. Also, play a Sox game instead of a soccer game....we are in Boston... The positive was the environment and the cleanliness. read more

A nice restaurant in the Bostonian hotel. I had mad reservations a week in advance and it seamed odd when I did not get a confirmation number. When we arrived clearly they did not take the info down. Lucky it was not busy and they could seat our 10 person party together. Service was very nice and the food was great. 20% tip is added for parties over 7 so look over your bill. read more

I ate here for breakfast after a stay in the hotel. The restaurant looks fairly new and has a smattering of TVs around the area. I was traveling alone but noticed a couple families comfortably seated and enjoying their meals. The breakfast food was pretty good, nothing crazy. I suspect this restaurant has more to offer for lunch and dinner but I was out and about at those times. read more

Terrible service one server working the whole place, breakfast was mediocre and expensive. Water was served straight from the sink, coffee was burnt and gross. read more

Food was amazing - service was perfect. Wine glasses sucked. $18 for a glass of wine in a $2 glass - no way. Then we had tax charged to the food and drink so it was different price than the menu - of then more tax with no explanation- we were told city tax. Then put that on the check. Then her is the big one. Cash less than card - that needs to be advertised. Sorry food was really great - but you're not messing with me again. Will not return. read more

This was my first time in Boston and my friend selected this restaurant for brunch. The only great thing was that the staff was very apologetic and were understanding of our experience. We made a reservation for 10:45 and were seated about 10 minutes after. They were short staffed it seemed as they handed us menus but it took them another 10 minutes just to get water for our table. The table next to us was seated after us and got their drinks and food before us. When our waitress came over she did state they were short staffed but spent several times coming back over to re-do our drink orders or that she needed clarification. The coffee mugs were 4 oz. so our group was constantly needing refills. They did not have avocado toast that I ordered so I got a breakfast sandwich that came out later than everyone else's. They did comp my meal as well as take 20% off my friend's bill as well which was great. But overall, it seemed that the prices were too steep and the food wasn't worth the wait. The staff was friendly enough but short staffed is still short staffed. Pictured below is my friend's bloody mary ($18) as well as the meals everyone received ($14-$18) read more

Nice lil bar and restaurant located in the Bostonian. I was staying here for a quick lil trip and decided to drop in, this was a nicely made dish for the location it was in. The Quincy market is right across the street so it gives u an alternative to all that stuff read more

They now only have breakfast menu and a 4-5 item regular menu. When you come in, during the week in the afternoon expecting a lunch/dinner menu you are handed the large breakfast menu and a very small teeny tiny lunch menu that is not reflective of their menu online or in previous Yelp posts. I watched multiple people come in and leave upon learning this and I myself then followed suit. Not a single chair was occupied and for such a prime location mid afternoon that speaks volumes. read more

Ratings are about right for this restaurant in the Bostonian Hotel. Service was fair. Food was just ok. Got the chicken and waffles and the chicken was a little overdone and unseasoned, ie flavorless. Wife got the lobster Bene which was good. Value is junk even for Boston. Was better off hitting the kiosks in the nearby Boston Public Market. read more

Coffee was lousy.. Very expensive. You could get better food at a diner. They automatically include the tip which should be up to the consumer. And they charge a Tray fee. Should have done an about face when I saw the place was empty. Place is dirty and torn up seats. read more

Pass on this one. It's the Bostonian Hotel restaurant and not great. High prices, low quality and add 20% to every bill. We sat down, server handed us menus and a supplemental menu. As I was reading the supplemental, a server took it from my hands stating this isn't valid as it ended at 7. At this time it was maybe 7:15? Bummer, cause I was eyeing the fish tacos. About 20 min later, the server is telling another client the specials, specifically fish tacos are available. When k asked she said they were not. Hmmm. Not a great experience and way over priced for my son and wife's meals. read more

Gross. Made my hangover worse . . . . We frequent Boston a lot, Probably not coming back here read more

Had a great brunch here today before leaving Boston and was not disappointed! Our waitress was a doll. She knew we were starving and brought us warm bread. She was on her first day there and did a great job. My hubby had the turkey panini with salad instead of fries. I had the tuscan sunrise sandwich served with home fries. The Tuscan sunrise was a fried egg, asiago cheese, bacon, and arugula on sourdough. We really enjoyed it. Portion sizes were big and prices were fair. Highly recommend! read more

Buyer BEWARE! They auto add 20% Gratuity to every tab and don't tell you about it! Wish I would have read the reviews before dining here. My bad! Was staying at the Bostonian, so we were enticed by the Lobster Benedict offering. The staff seemed stressed and short staffed but were friendly and got to us as soon as they could. Food was quick 4 stars, the bartender was friendly and kept our mimosas full 4 stars, minus stars for auto adding 20% tip and not telling us. I ended up leaving another 25% because I didn't realize that was their policy. It feels very shady and I got ripped off, not a nice feeling to leave with. If adding Auto Gratuity is your policy, fine, but it needs to be clearly circled and/or verbaled to the guest. Unless your in the business of ripping people off, then by all means keep doing what you are doing! read more

The food was good Menu was limited Service was horrible 30 minutes to get wings and chicken fingers Too tired to complain They charged me an automatic 20% tip in which the server didn't deserve. read more

Was able to get in last minute with a party of 7 on a Saturday. Impressed with how they handled the fact that we forgot to make a reservation. They were very accommodating. The menu is huge and the food was delicious. Philly eggrolls! Nachos! read more

Came here for lunch Thursday to get the lobster special. It was $20 for a 1.5 lb. Lobster, corn on the cob, potatoes, and a cup of their clam chowder. You do have to purchase a drink, which, was no big deal to us hahah. It was a great deal and I would definitely come back for it. The service was a tad bit slow but our server was nice. Will be coming back for another boujie lunch :) read more

North 26 Restaurant and Bar - Lobstah special! - American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

We were definitely the oddballs last night at North 26 (we were too hyped), the presentation was vibrant and beautiful! On top of that, each bite was BURSTING with flavor! I was surprised they had such low reviews, but I took my chances during the Dine Out (Boston Restaurant) Week deals. For $38, you can have a 3 course meal. This place is also perfect for Romantic Dates! For appetizers, the Lobster Brisque looks small and unfilling, but boy, it packed a whallop. Even the aroma is strong enough to get to you. We savored it as long as possible and used it as dipping for the bread. It was a tie between our entrees, but I'd say if you want to eat sushi without seaweed and bite size rolls, the Blue Fin's the closest to it. My Pan-Seared Scallops and Shrimps was well decorated with very addicting puree and sauces. Not a fan of the veggies underneath though. The Molten Cake is easily the winner because it's light and small, compared to the giant Boston Cream Pie I ordered. Also, I'm not a fan of the cinnamon. read more

How can scrambled eggs, bacon and toast fail? Extremely poor quality ingredients. Foamy supermarket "wheat" bread, the fattiest grossest "bacon," tasteless eggs probably from some big food-service bay of "egg." At $25 an order, once all the mandatory fees are added. Avoid. read more

North 26 Restaurant and Bar - Sad breakfast - American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Seemed like a nice place to grab some late night food after getting in to Boston. We got there around 10 order a beer, chicken skewers, zucchini chips and beef sliders. 20 minutes later, no drinks the waitress comes back and says the computer went down so we have to reorder. We order again and my girl asks for a glass of wine instead of a beer. Another 20-25 minutes go by and the waitress brings us a full sized burger that we didn't even order. We ask about the wine and she says it's coming. Another few minutes go by and I decide to go up to the bar and ask the server about the wine in front of the bartender and other staff. A few minutes later we finally get the wine. The waitress promises us to take an item off our bill and bring us a couple of lemon drop shots for the wait. The bartender personally brings us over a couple shots that were a good size and delicious. Unfortunately at this point I'm frustrated because we hadn't gotten our food and have a very strong belief the waitress (Hispanic lady with nose ring) is intoxicated on something because she's literally slurring her words and being extremely strange and forgetful. She would make comments like " So I was about to leave $40 on the table to cover the glass of wine and burger we ate, but didn't order when out comes the rest of the food about an hour after we sat down. The food was great, the sliders were so soft and flavorful, the chicken skewers were perfectly cooked and marinated in this lemon sauce and the zucchini chips were absolutely bomb! The waitress then brings over a chicken sandwich plate with fries for us and we tell her it's not for us. She says ok and asks if we want hot sauce, my girl says sure and a few minutes later she brings us a second cup of ketchup instead. I saw her give that chicken sandwich to another table a few minutes later, like wtf. When the bill came we were charged for the burger we didn't order, there was no discounted items as promised and they added a mandatory 20% gratuity. What a great way to end this experience. So we ate the food and it was really good, but the prices are pretty high for what it is and the waitress was absolutely terrible, the service took way too long. read more

Trash service. Absolutely awful. Waiter told us they stopped serving food and then we watched other people order cheeseburgers...? Ordered a few drinks and then tried for 30 minutes to get our check and no one acknowledged us. To top it off they add 20% gratuity to the check. Would never come back here. Should've went to McDonald's. read more

Not a good selection of food. Bread was moldy and the chicken wings were cold. Don't waste your time or your money. This used to be a great restaurant, but it has gone downhill in a hurry. read more

Crab cakes were good, fries were seasoned well and crispy. The tap beer was warm and flat. The chicken fingers weren't edible. Even my 12 year old was making fun of how they were rubber. Seemed like they have been in the freezer for years. I would go back. Just order bottled beer and don't get the chicken fingers. read more

My wife and I stayed in the Bostonian and North 26 is attached. We dropped in on our way back to our room needing a little snack before we settled in for the night. We decided on Chicken Parm Eggrolls to start. My wife had a Caesar Salad with chicken and I had a bowl of NE Claim Chowder. The eggrolls should better describe the marinara sauce, they come with a spicy marinara and not a regular one. This was not a problem for me, but it was too spicy for my wife and I could see how it would be for someone who is not a spicy food person, they had a "bite" for sure. The salad was under dressed, but there was no issue with getting a side of additional dressing. The claim chowder was average and did not have a lot of clams in it. Overall it was an average at best snack. read more

Because we were staying at the Bostonian, the North 26 was inevitable because we are lazy and it is downstairs. The food is decent, the staff seem to tolerate us even though we are broke & petty fuckers who tip meagre amounts. The food is decent until you order proteins. When it comes to steak and eggs, North 26 thinks medium rare means borderline burning the meat and it was evident when cutting felt more like sawing. On the other hand, the tuna ceviche and surf n turf are lovely to consume (the former has way too much "asian greens" resting under the fish though). There's bits and pieces to fault on the dishes we were served at North 26, but by far the best was the dessert. The beautiful French apple tart with a side of cinnamon ice cream has left a lasting impression in my mind, it was texturally balanced (crunch from the pastry, softness from the apple + ice cream), and the strength from the cinnamon seemed to blend seamlessly with the acidity of the berries that complimented the sweetness. That was a 10/10 and I'd get diabetes for it again. The North 26 offers great service as well, and they give you bagels and cream cheese when you order a side of "only smoked salmon with the capers and onions" just in case you have any second thoughts. They're always there for you, when you're having a depressive episode in the hotel room and you want oddly specific requests like just a bowl of raspberries, to date night downstairs with more pricey dishes. Idk if y'all read yelp but thank you. read more

Another great experience at North 26 for their $25 lobster special. Yes it went up $5 from last year but that's ok. Four of us got it; really good chowder with lots of clams, meaty lobster, roasted potatoes and way better than expected corn on the cob. My fave Gruner Veltliner was just $10, they had cocktail onions for my friend's gimlet, nice service, good stuff. read more

3.5 stars for my Dine Out Boston experience (aka Restaurant Week). North 26 is located at the Millennium Bostonian Hotel just beyond the historic Faneuil Hall Marketplace. Though I was the 2nd party to arrive for lunch, three additional groups came in shortly thereafter, and we were all given seats by the window facing the street. The rolls arrived warm and soft inside beneath the crisp crust with some nicely softened butter. For my two course Restaurant Week special for $20, I selected the Lobster Bisque with fresh Lobster and Crème Chantilly and their Roasted Gulf of Maine Swordfish, Zucchini, Tomato, Basil and Olive Tapenade on Lemon Risotto with Haricots Verts. The bisque was light and creamy with a decent amount of cubed claw meat, though some pieces were a little tough. The fish was a good portion at about a half inch thick, and perhaps one of my most healthy lunches of late as it came topped with a nice pile of diced vegetables. However, I shamed the clean plate club as I couldn't finish the creamy risotto. Service was pleasant. read more

My server Mario was absolutely amazing. Super friendly and inviting. Great food, cozy aroma. 10/10.

The food is always amazing but I am partial to the cheesecake! Opps on my part for reviewing my first meal with the hotel so see the Millennium Bostonian. Out for a celebration, my lunch mate and I enjoyed the cool dining room overlooking the hot summer day near Faneuil Hall. My haddock was hot, not over cooked, light and fluffy. Served with a double order of asparagus I could splurge on the dessert. This was my third try of the chef's cheese cake and I have loved all of them. The sweet potato one was yummy and this one was awesome as well. However, this one came with an unusual surprise...Carmel and choc swirls looped around the polished white plate with a single cheese cake. With a piece of bacon??? Yes, bacon dipped in a hard coating of sweetness. It was like a breakfast pop. Sugar, toffee like, and salty all in a pop. Who says you can't have breakfast on a stick. This questionable decor was just the right touch to the smooth creamy and rich cake. Mmm. The Pineapple upside down cake served with Coconut ice cream was delicious too. Again, a bit of a twist. An individual sized light and fluffy cake with a slice of pineapple topped with a dollop of ice cream that had a batter of coconut. It had been deep fried to give it a hard shell and crunchy bite. The ice cream did melt fast but we had fun cutting and splitting the shell. read more

Don't order the burger and fries. The burger was ordered cooked medium and came out well done and burnt the fries where good.

This place sucks hard. North 26/100 must be what the 26 stands for. We're visiting Boston because it's our cousin's birthday 26/100. We made a reservation for 7. Didn't get our drinks until 7:15. How hard is it to pour beer out of the draft? And then got our clam chowder appetizer at 7:30 and it was cold clam chowder. Then finally got our food at 8. Ordered seafood pasta and salmon. All the prices of their entrees are north of $26 but taste like a dish worth 26 cents. The salmon wasn't too bad but this was all relative to the extremely bland seafood. Also eventually we got some appetizer bread but they might as well have served us stones with butter. That crap was uneatable. To make matters worse our waiter or waiters or managers were so bizarre. Think we met 8 people continually asking the same questions. Interrupting our meal to ask weird questions beyond what typical waiters would ask. It really seemed like it was their first time ever serving as waiters. I feel bad for our cousin who had to eat such a gross birthday meal. But let me tell you, this place is great if you're looking to treat out someone you hate. You are guaranteed warm beer, cold soup, weird service, and gross overpriced entrees! Enjoy trolling! read more

Unnecessarily overpriced for basic food. The bloody mary was interesting with bacon and shrimp hanging.

Ordered a lobster roll and my wife ordered a burger... it took an hour to come out and the lobster roll was like warm and the burger was all wrong! We didn't have an hour to wait again so we just asked for the money back on our burger and roll... they refused to give the money back on the burger and charged us automatically for gratuity! Do not by any means go here!!!!! Thanks read more

First time here and just finished breakfast with my wife. The food was excellent, but as good as the food was, it was overshadowed by how OUTSTANDING the manager was. At least I think he was the manager. His name is Tommy and he did literally everything from fixing a wobbly table to delivering food to speaking to pretty much everyone in the restaurant. He lights up around the little ones and was just so happy and helpful, always smiling, and he made breakfast even better than it already was. And breakfast was really good. If you get the chance to eat here, and you should, look for Tommy. It isn't often I see someone so energetic that makes your visit so enjoyable. I would absolutely recommend visiting North 26. The food is worth it, the staff, most especially Tommy, makes the whole experience better. read more

The food, service, and ambiance was great. It's is in a walkable neighborhood in downtown Boston. I would definitely go back.

It seems like this place just opened and everyone there has no clue what they are doing. My pregnant friend was getting hungry after walking around Boston so we popped in here after having no luck in the North End. The service was awful, although they were super apologetic. It took our waiter an hour to just take our orders and it was so difficult to get him to come back to our table, even-though he would walk by us multiple times. It took 20 minutes for my friend to just get a can of Sprite. And with this horrible service a 20% gratuity is automatically included. The food was SO overpriced and not worth it in the slightest. I had the steak frites which were over cooked and were so covered in pepper that I couldn't eat more than a couple of bites and neither could my friend. I truly can't believe the prices for the food because it was so bad. It was also very cold in there so we were shivering the whole time. We should've just gone down to Quincy Market and eaten at the kiosks because they definitely would've been better. read more
