Meal itself was unfortunately a bit lackluster. It was well prepared and presented but lacked flavor. For instance, I ordered the lamb and harissa pasta but couldn't have told you it had either lamb or harissa unless you had told me. Same theme was writ large across whole meal. It's a good and safe introduction to steak-and-potato diners who have never been introduced to Mediterranean flavors but not for diners familiar with what these flavors should taste like.

There are some things on a menu that you don't really have a choice but to order. Jalapeño crab…read morerangoons are one of those things. As soon as we saw them at Moonshine 152, it was an auto order, and they were exactly what you'd hope for: the perfect combination of a jalapeño popper and a crab rangoon. We started the night outside on the patio with those, a Downeast cider for me, my favorite, and a Battery Steele Golden Path Pilsner. Great weather, a view of the Pru in the distance, and crab rangoons on the table. Pretty hard to complain. For dinner, I went with Leslie Knope's Fried Chicken and Waffle. Somehow, I had never actually had chicken and waffles before, and now I understand why it's such a lethal combination. The chicken had exactly the crispiness I was craving, and throwing the sweetness of the waffle, cinnamon honey butter, and sriracha-bourbon sauce into the mix completely sold me on the whole sweet and savory thing. I now also understand why Chick-fil-A looked at chicken and waffles and essentially decided to make a sandwich out of it. My friends went with the burger and birria gringo tacos, and both gave their respective orders top marks. The best thing we ate, though, was the bananas n' cream gooey butter cake. Gooey butter cake always slaps, and Moonshine's version was top notch. Chef and owner Asia Mei even gave us a larger order, which leads to probably my favorite thing about Moonshine. Mei brought out all of our food herself and stopped to talk with us throughout the meal. That kind of thing is cool. There are plenty of places where you can get good food, but having the person behind the restaurant actually interacting with you and making you feel taken care of is the type of thing that separates a place. Everyone else working there was just as friendly and attentive, and the whole night felt easy. Sitting outside with friends, looking out toward the Pru, drinking good beer and cider and eating food that was actually fun to order is exactly what I want out of a neighborhood restaurant. Then I found out they do a burger of the month. I love a monthly burger. Give me an excuse to come back every month and see what you've come up with, and there's a pretty good chance I'm going to take you up on it. Moonshine 152 took care of us from the moment we sat down until the oversized gooey butter cake hit the table. It's absolutely worth a visit, and if they keep rolling out a new burger every month, this definitely won't be my last one.

It's become the kind of place we want to go every Friday, just for the food, the atmosphere, and the feeling of being there. Somehow it always feels like the perfect night out. Moonshine 152 is such a special place, and we feel lucky to have it down the street!!!!!! These are only a few photos of the food we have gotten throughout the years.

The oysters and shrimp were definitely larger than those at nearby spots like Lincoln and Loco. We ordered the steak tips ($32), which unfortunately came out just warm and a bit dry for medium rare, making it the most disappointing dish of the night. The mash even came out almost cold. On the brighter side, the appetizers were a highlight--the Korean ribs and charred octopus were both delicious and tender. Drinks were solid, and despite the steak, I'd definitely come back for the $1 oysters and shrimp cocktails alone and probably their $7 sides which seems like a decent portions.

I have no idea why you have to pay over 20% in fees for food that you are taking to go. I would not recommend dining here.

Rating: 3.5 Stars…read more Lifted is on the fifth floor of the OMNI Hotel. My friend and I stopped by around 8 PM on a Wednesday night. We went up to the hostess stand and were seated right away. Our server came by and was very friendly. However, as the night went on the service became quite slow. It took a lot of time for our food to come out and to get our to-go boxes as well. For a drink, I ordered the PINA-NO-LADA. It is basically a virgin pina colada. Very delicious and they added some nice cherries on top. For the food we shared: -CEVICHE: Great flavor and very fresh octopus. Went well with the tortilla chips it came with. -SHRIMP SCAMPI: The pasta was cooked perfectly as were the shrimp that were big and juicy. However, the sauce was overly acidic. There was way too much lemon in it. I do also wish they had more than just 4 shrimp on top of a $30 bowl of pasta. -BRUSSEL SPROUTS: Was good brussel sprouts. All in all, while the food was pretty good (with some hit or miss elements), it is such an expensive meal especially for the portion and service you are getting.

Nonetheless, I received my table immediately. State Street's tap beer selection had decent regional representation - Zero Gravity, Jacks Abbey, Lawsons, Maine Beer, Night Shift, and Dorchester Brewing. For this dinner, I sampled the brussel sprouts (appetizer, $13), the scallop tagliatelle ($38), and sides of broccolini and house-cut fries ($6 ea). The brussel sprouts arrived in the textbook modern fashion - crisped up leaves and well seasoned. The establishment chose to garnish theirs with soy caramel, miso yogurt, and cilantro. The broccolini side also received a decent coating of oil and seasoning - the exact treatment that a high end steakhouse would give. The house cut fries proved liberally salted and not overly oily. My main, the scallop tagliatelle, had scallops seared to perfection and with a hint of smokiness. The pasta itself carried seafood savoriness, accentuated by a cream sauce that coated well but didn't feel too heavy on the palate. The atmosphere seemed nice and upscale but not unapproachable. My outdoor table faced State Street. Since it was the final part of the street before reaching the waterfront, it saw little traffic so I was not annoyed by cars passing a few feet away. Overall, I quite enjoyed my dinner. I'll be sure to keep State Street in mind the next time I'm looking for a modern New England seafood restaurant.
