    IT'S BROWNIE TIME
    Mo B.

    Phenomenal & will be back to try again! Parking is rough, if you don't catch something in front of the restaurant you might be searching for a while. Staff & service was friendly! Nothing out of the norm, average, quick, and attentive service. The food was phenomenal! I had the Beef tips & Chicken tips, and for dessert I had the "it's brownie time" ice cream & brownies combo, which I recommend highly. I love that the focus is around serving food in Tip as their highlight. I will say a lot of their food is cooked with alcohol, so slow down and read if that's something you're trying to avoid. Typically when restaurants charge higher in price the food is average in taste, but everything else we ate was a home run. I will be back to try more! For the scenery of the restaurant it was a mix of a Bar and fine dining. I like that, if you're there to watch sports and hangout you can easily do that. If you're there for a nice and simple date they've separated a space to do just that as well. It's been a while since I've been enthusiastic about a restaurant and I have to say the restaurant was a great experience, please try!

    Stopped in on a Sunday for a quick lunch. I was kind of bummed because when I saw the wings on the reviews, that was what I planned to order, but they had a separate brunch/lunch menu for that day. However, the bartender asked the cooks and they made me the wings! They were so good, they had such a unique flavor and I believe I tasted tarragon coming through. ! So 5 stars for service and hospitality. Also the espresso martini was delish! The spicy ranch is great with the fries.

    Fun spot to hang out at! Came here on New Years Eve (just walked by while strolling through looking for ice sculptures) and we were able to sit at the bar without a wait. Things were starting to pick up as it was a bit later (930/10pm) and we enjoyed a couple drinks here before making our way to one more spot for the final countdown. Our bartender was friendly and the drinks were great. We tried an old fashioned, mean eyed cat margarita, and an espresso martini. They were delicious and potent. They have an extensive beer and spirit menu too, and a lot of tempting food options that I would definitely like to try if I return next time I'm in town!

    STEAK BURGER*

    This place was a mixed bag but ultimately disappointing. Starting with the good, the menu and drink list are very fun and a great mix. The draft list is also very extensive and great for pre-game or concerts at TD. Unfortunately, the actual food left a lot to be desired. I will give them props for bringing the dishes split in two after my partner expressed that we would be sharing everything. However, the portion of risotto was so sad that I'm hoping the actual size is larger. It had 4 pieces of shrimp and it was more so wet rice than risotto, there was no creaminess. Also, the tikka masala Cesar was just tikka masala over lettuce (with broccoli?) there was no Caesar aspect. In addition, the steak burger was mushy and flavorless. Even the cheese was strange and very hard. Alps charging extra to put cheese on a burger that comes with nothing but sauce is laughable. Service was also confusing with all servers parking at all tables so multiple servers came up to take our order and we had to keep sending the away as we had already ordered. Overall the menu is very experimental but not executed well and service needs some organization and communication between the team.

    I really just dropped in and out for a drink right as they closed, so my rating is only for them as a bar. The bartenders were incredibly kind to let us sample beers less than 20 minutes before closing and even make us a nonalcoholic cocktail as they were closing up. Beers are a bit pricey, but nothing unusual for the area. $10 after tax and tip for a draft pour.

    This place is absolutely awesome. I would definitely visit the Tip Tap room frequently if I lived in the area. We were the first ones there; we arrived shortly after they opened (no reservations). They have an awesome, diverse menu with a ton of great beer choices. I was planning on trying one of the brews, but someone started with a Bloody Mary and we all followed suit. My friends had a beer chaser and were happy with their choices. I had a veggie burger that was absolutely delicious. Rave reviews on everything else including our awesome, engaging server. It got very busy quickly with large parties that had reservations. Definitely go here.

    TIKKA CAESAR
    Hursuong V.

    Tried more of the menu and was pleased overall! Pork dumplings were savory, steak tips tender, and calamari was generously breaded and fried. We also had the beet salad which was probably the only thing that wasn't special. The drink menu is larger than the food menu so there are lots of options for everyone. I enjoyed my cocktails.

    BRISKET & CHORIZO BURGER* BRUSSELS & CORNED BEEF HASH
    Carissa S.

    Absolutely lovely. So many selections of beers on tap, tasty specials, and fast service. This cozy spot was within walking distance from our hotel, and it was the first thing we ate in Boston; after our stay in Maine, it tasted full of flavor and the portions are oversized! We ordered the Chorizo and Brisket Burger and the Hash, and holy guacamole it was good! The green sauce on the hash was super tasty and delicious! When we went, there were a couple of sports games on and not many people in the restaurant (it was in between meal times).

    steak tips

    This place can best be described as having upscale sports bar vibes. As in, there is a large bar on one side of the dining room and TV screens in each corner of the room playing the latests sports game, but full-service restaurant tables everywhere else. Everyone but one person in our group got steak tips, and we all thoroughly enjoyed how tender and flavorful the dish was. I tried a bite of the tofu tips as well and it was equally well-cooked, with a nice crispy texture on the outside while being tender on the inside. This was not my personal favorite type of dining environment, since it was dimly lit and loud from the large number of people in the dining room, but no complaints at all on the food or service. The price was okay at $30 for the steak tips and $22 for the tofu tips. Would gladly come again if friends wanted to, but not my personal favorite choice in terms of ambiance and audibility for talking.

    LAMB BURGER
    Vickie R.

    LOVE the vibe of this place! Met up with some old friends and grabbed dinner here before an event at TD Garden and the service was fast and efficient! We made reservations, but arrived 20mins early and the lovely host seated us right away while we waited for the rest of the party to arrive. We started out with the pork dumplings and were pleasantly surprised with how delicious they were! Great flavor and very authentic dumplings with a little kick to them (tiny bit spicy, but not too bad, as I'm very sensitive to spicy foods!). I ordered the Tofu Tips, which made me laugh at the name, but they were actually superb! Often when I order a vegetarian meal, there is very little flavor. This dish was the opposite. So much taste in every bite and served in a fairly large portion. Loved the sliced avocado on the side to mix with the sautéed baby spinach, squash and peppers. One of my friends ordered the lamb burger, which he states was phenomenal, with "a little kick to it"! I ate some of his fries...and they were cooked to perfection- crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Big thumbs up for his dish! My other friend ordered the Chicken Tips and said it was absolutely delicious. We were all thoroughly impressed with our meals and the friendly and efficient service! We wrapped up in time to get to our event early without having to rush through our meal. I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. The cleanliness and vibe was top notch and the food and service were excellent. I will most definitely be back when I'm in Boston again! Yay!

During our meal just after the lovely table side service of the lobster bisque my son accidentally moved the table with his feet and the drinks flew into my food. Our server watched it happen and walked away. She turned not to help but out of disgust walked the other way! The food runner came to the rescue! But then we were charged for another drink that spilled! I don't know but when your at fine dining and you get double charged for a table moving and treated like you are an inconvenience that gets me. Plus she was clearly angry with us. Food 5 stars, service 2, price for the service we received totally not worth it. Don't waste your money to get treated badly. Sorry kitchen but front of the house ruined it.

Around opening time, the owner came out and personally greeted everyone as they came into the restaurant. He was so friendly. He greeted passers-by on the street and talked with the locals. The staff was friendly and answered all our questions. They provided recommendations and offered suggestions. We sat at a window table and were able to see out at the boats. It was cute and quaint inside! I got a cup of the clam chowder. I 100% recommend it! They add dill and omit the pork, which made it so delicious! My friend and I split the fish and chips, and it was more than enough for two people. The fish was cooked perfectly and the fries (chips) were crispy without being too crunchy.
