In the spirit of sightseeing, we knew we had to stop by L Street Tavern…read more My husband and I are fans of Good Will Hunting so we knew we had to add L Street to the itinerary. L Street Tavern is located in a nice neighborhood, but parking is hard to find since most of the spots are for residents only. We came later in the evening so there was only 1 other person there which was nice. Nothing about L Street Tavern really makes you think of the movie and I actually kind of like that. It is just a dive bar that you can tell is loved by it's locals. Lots of history can be seen and felt here for sure! We ordered 2 beers and a Red Bull Vodka - we drank our drinks and hit the road. Bartender did his job, but wasn't all that friendly. If you're looking for some place that is authentic Boston though - check out L Street Tavern!

You're here for drinks and sports bar vibe, and you don't know how to do brunch, and that's fine. The pancakes are so dry and the egg plates look like they're re-hydrated astronaut food.

Service was great, attentive, and quick. Friendly staff, and overall good vibes from the place. This would be great to watch a game as they have a nice bar and TVs. Highly recommend and I'll be back!

You must order the kale salad. I am not a kale salad person, yet I have dined here three times in…read morethe last week to eat the kale salad and am already planning my next visit. You know when you're eating a kale salad and the pieces are too big and you're kind of cramming them into your mouth and then the salad dressing is all over your face? This is NOT that salad! The kale is perfectly chopped so you can enjoy it with just your fork as you talk to your friend/spouse/date or just read your book. The dressing is such perfection, and the perfect amount, no gloopiness here! Crunchy breadcrumbs add magical texture and then there's a shower of finely grated gouda cheese on top. Have you ever read a good book and as you're reading it, you're so into it that you don't want it to end? So you slow down your reading speed to make it last a little longer? That's how I feel about this salad. There are other delicious items on the menu, I saw someone eating the burger that looked so good, I also want to try the Brussels but the call of the salad siren is too strong. Everyone is super welcoming and friendly, especially Catherine, and the kitchen team even shared the dressing recipe with me. Excellent wine list, casual and cozy space with twinkle lights, a lot of bar/counter seating, great date spot. Also attached/sister company to American Provisions I believe (great spot in Southie for sandwiches, cheeses, wines, pastries, rare food items).

It's one of my top 3 places in all of Boston. The vibes, the food, the wine, the prices, EVERYTHING is 10/10. This is one of those places where I feel at peace because I feel like my money was 100% well-spent. The prices are fair, and I don't feel like I'm being taken advantage of. And the FOOD, the food is exquisite. My favorite time to go is on Tuesdays for the $1 oyster deal, definitely my favorite $1 oyster deal in the city. They mostly have small plates and a few large plates, but you seriously can't go wrong with anything on the menu. And the wine options, amazinggggggg. Gray's is a true gem!

Came here for dinner for the first time with a couple of friends. Hubby and I ordered their…read morebuffalo loaded fries, a spicy chicken burger, pressed veggie melt, and a couple of drinks. Total came out to approximately $80 (not including tip). What's Hot - Menu. Pretty good variety. There's something for everyone, including vegans (for the most part). Specifically for vegans, they do not appear to have vegan cheese. They recently added loaded fries to their menu. - Quality. We tried their buffalo loaded fries, which definitely a good kick of spiciness. There was a good amount of buffalo mozzarella cheese and chicken. Their fries are slightly crispy on the outside, soft and tender on the inside. I really enjoyed my pressed veggie sandwich. There were whole veggies, such as broccoli, with a good amount of cheese melted between all the veggies. I liked that it was not a mashed patty. The sourdough bread was not tart (which I prefer), soft, and not too greasy. No skimping on the ingredients either. Their mozzarella bites appetizer is good, not overly breaded, and cheesy/stringy. All of us enjoyed our meals. - Service. We showed up without reservations on a Friday night when it was cold and rainy, and they were able to seat us right away. We tried several other restaurants before getting here, and we would have had to wait at least one hour, because we did not have reservations, even though those restaurants clearly had open tables. Our waitress was helpful. She answered all questions she had and was able to provide us contextual helpful info (i.e., what she's tried from the menu, what she liked and why, flavor level, etc...). She paid attention to detail. One of our friends hates pickles and specifically asked for no pickles with his burger. This may seem like a minor detail, but if a staffer cannot pay attention to detail in the service industry, that is not a good indication. - Price. Good value for money, especially given the quality of food and portions. - Portions. Good amount and enough to get one full on one dish. - Location. Conveniently located in downtown Boston around many other shops and restaurants. - Layout. At the front, there's a pretty large bar area, including high tables and chairs, with booths and smaller tables towards the back. They appear to be able to accommodate large groups and smaller parties, including individuals. What's Not - Acoustics. It's pretty loud inside and sound carries very easily, so it's difficult to carry a conversation. Final Answer Worth returning.

The other night, I had the most uproarious and unforgettable dining experience at Local 149, and…read morelet me tell you, it was an absolute rollercoaster of delight! The moment I walked in, I was greeted by the tantalizing aroma of mouthwatering dishes and the sight of a bar that looked like it was curated by the gods themselves, thank you Hey-Suz. First off, let's talk about the food. Oh-My-Baby Christmas Jesus. The food! Each dish was a symphony of flavors that danced on my taste buds like a flash mob in stealing from Sephora. I ordered the Burnt Ends, Popcorn Chicken and Drunkin Scallops, and let me tell ya, Dear Lord Baby Jesus, I saw fireworks explode as I put that delicate meat into my mouth. Every bite was like winning the lottery! Now, on to the drinks. The cocktails here aren't just beverages; they're a full-on EXPERIENCE in a glass. I sipped on the "Good N U Mule" and the "Smoking Green," which made me feel things that I haven't since my wife left me. By the second round, I was convinced I could get here back, Cynthia if you're reading this I still love you. And oh, the staff! The GM is a smoken hot dynamo who could probably erect steel beams with just a wink. Her charm and charisma had everyone, including my grandpa, excited like teenagers. Not to be outdone, the AGM is a shredded, dark, and handsome dreamboat. His suave demeanor, ripped physique, and dazzling smile had my sister creating a lake a sin. But wait, there's more! The bar manager - let's call him "Big Ole Daddy" - is what all men are terrified of, the Mr. Steal Your Mom type. He's like the Dumbledore of cocktails, conjuring up potions that had us all believing in his magic wand, Making everyone feel like they were part of one big party. By the end of the night, I was convinced I had stepped into an alternate universe where food, drinks, and drop-dead gorgeous staff collided to create the ultimate paradise. Local is not just a restaurant; it's a life-changing adventure. If you haven't been, drop whatever you're doing and go now. You won't regret it!

Overall, not the best experience here. For reference- I have a peanut allergy, which definitely…read moreimpacts the review. They had peanut butter in the fryer, so anything fried I couldn't eat. Not super uncommon, but still annoying. We had a few drinks, pizza, pretzel bites, and salad. Pretzel bites were fine, cheese sauce with them was pretty gross and I wouldn't really call it a sauce more so just a block of melted cheese. Salad was supposedly fine. The pizza tasted fine but the bottom of it was practically raw. Just a very floppy/ falling apart pizza. Wouldn't mind grabbing a quick beer there because the bar itself was pretty solid, and the place was lively with a few different games on. But wouldn't really recommend anyone spend much on food, for what you pay is not worth it.
