    Roasted Cabbage
    Rachel B.

    Really cute spot.. we came before a concert, and it was actually a "pre concert meet up bar" but they were not prepared. They had 1 bartender and their menu has complex cocktails, it just wasn't going to work. The espresso martinis were great and so was the food. I enjoyed the cabbage.

    I like the bright ambiance of the location.  Perfect for a sunny winter afternoon.

    I stumbled on this place for Sunday brunch while attending a track meet at the New Balance facility. They have music and a really good brunch menu. The place is bright and airy. The bartenders are very nice and attentive. I sampled the house wings and their chicken and waffles. Both were very good. The bartender informed me that they had just started with these Sunday events. Looking around at the people coming in, we'll dressed and positive, it looks like a hit for Sundays. Best success to them. Additionally, if you're a young man of sophistication and want to meet like minded women, this Sunday brunch is a good spot. It's not often I stumble on a sleeper spot, especially when I'm not even looking but this was a pleasant surprise. Happy Black History month. 02/15/2026

    Went here before the Disclosure show; had their wings and burgers. Definitely got busy in the night, fries were good, not sure if they got a 1.0 where I could of just got a classic burger.

    Came here for a birthday party in their event room space. We got there early so we started with a drink at the regular bar. I ordered a Cosmo which was delish! The meal for the party was buffet style and everything was AMAZING. The salad with candied walnuts and Roquefort cheese was a great start. The chicken was moist, the Mac and cheese was very tasty and the steak tips were tender. I didn't have high expectations of this place based on other reviews but I would definitely head back. I am not sure if the catering menu is available on the normal menu but I do hope so because everything was great!

    Never been to their South Bay location but this new location in "Boston Landing" (Allston / Brighton area) was pretty nice. Grabbed a drink beforehand next door at Broken Record Beer Hall to pregame after looping around a few times in the plaza to find some street parking (there was a sold out concert the Saturday my friends and I went). There are also multiple garages with $20 pricing. Food was good (upscale seafood restaurant so prices are a little high). Staff was very friendly. Restaurant is new so very clean / modern. The restaurant itself is not that big so recommend making reservations ahead of time. I'd suggest making adding some more options to the dessert menu to make it more interesting.

    Lemon sorbet

    This restaurant is OUTSTANDING! Hands down one of the best meals I've had in Boston in a while. First off, service was great. Every person was so nice and checked in often. We started with two of the house cocktails which were both beautiful and tasted great. We shared a lobster bisque which came with unreal croutons and had tons of lobster pieces in it, and was the perfect size to share for an app for two. I had the spaghettini for my entree & my BF got the seafood rice. Both had amazing flavor and were unlike anything I've tried. Such a unique twist on your classic seafood restaurants. I can't wait to come back and try other things on the menu! And to top it all off I got this cute birthday card & a scoop of lemon sorbet which was so thoughtful!

    The Pearl restaurant open a new location in Allston, great food & wait staff. Restaurant decoration was marvelous w/ high booth table and bench. Definitely would come back to this restaurant and share this with my friend Hi Winder

    Spaghettini

    Amazing food every thing was delicious, great atmosphere and friendly staff! I had a dinner for my birthday and the food was incredible. The waitress was extremely accommodating and decor is very sheik down to the fabulous scented lotion in the restrooms. Highly recommended!

    Food is fine, but we waits 2 hours for food, 30 mins for drinks. Manager treated me like it was my fault and that I should be grateful.

    I have friends in Boston who have insisted that I get over to The Daily Catch in the North End…read more Oh. My. Word! This is one of those places that you remember forever. There are maybe five tables in the entire place, and you feel like you're sitting in the kitchen with the chef. A pro tip I've discovered is to arrive early for dinner--maybe around 4pm--to beat the long line that will grow outside. I cannot say enough about the freshness and quality of the food. Our group had a few small appetizers which were excellent, but the real treat was their daily swordfish special. I'm not quite sure how to describe it, other than "wow." So much flavor packed in this dish. Wine is served in regular plastic drink cups alongside fresh bread. You really do feel like you're sitting right in the middle of a great Italian kitchen. It should be noted that this is a cash-only establishment; so plan ahead. This spot is a Must Visit if you find yourself in Boston's North End.

    We decided to do Brookline as North end typically is a PITA to find parking or else pay for a…read moregarage and walk across Hanover street. This location was easy to find parking along Harvard street at a meter. We arrived at their 4pm dinner open time and they said give them 10 minutes so we ended up at the new blank street location right next door. Once in and seated, our waitress was great! Marathon Monday vibes all around town. We took a seat in the window nook. My lady loves squid ink pasta and it's different than Japanese style (doesn't stain your teeth haha). We ordered + fried calamari + mussels siciliano + aglio olio We started with the complimentary bread, with olive oil, crushed red peppers and Parmesan! The calamari was next (my must order anywhere i go to taste). Light batter fried (didn't just fall apart thankfully) nice light and crispy. The squid was fresh, not cooked rubbery and tasted great with the marinara sauce (nice hint of spice). Now i wish the portion was a tad bigger but it was yummy. The mussels is the ladies go to, for an appetizer. It came out HOT, with a lemon white wine garlic sauce. Super tasty, mussels definite shine through without the sauce/broth overpowering the natural flavor of the mussel. She finished that up quick and i had a taste myself and agree with her assessment haha. And finally the Aglio Olio, squid ink pasta with minced squid and garlic. This was a perfectly balanced dish, came out HOT be careful of the pan. The pasta and squid just melted together so well. The caramelized butter/garlic with bits of minced squid just had you scraping the pan at the end to make sure you inhale them. Great meal for two. Very satisfied. (Give us another couple ounces of fried calamari and it'd be perfect!)
