Carrot hummus - delicious
Rachel B.

Lovely services - we mentioned in our reservation it was for an anniversary and both the hostess and waiter acknowledge this! We even got a glass of champagne, which was a really nice touch. All the food was fantastic... we had the carrot hummus, charred broccoli, short rib, and oysters. Would definitely return!

Farmer's breakfast with side of WHF sausage
Amanda P.

We booked a reservation for 11am to try their brunch. The hosts were wonderful, they even check your coats. Our waitress was also very sweet in giving us recommendations. It's right on the pier so you get a nice view of the water. Food came out about 15 minutes after ordering and the plating made it look delicious! I got the short rib hash, it was soooo yummy! The sweet potatoes were my favorite part but everything complimented each other very well! My partner got the farmer's breakfast. Pretty straightforward but their sausages were the star on this one! Probably the best we have had. We would definitely come back again to try their dinner menu if we are in Boston!

1875
Thomas E.

Fantastic restaurant in Seaport, great selection of food choices and a nice ambience. After reading the food menu and finding many of the items on the menu appealing, I really wanted to check this place out. The waiter advised us the menu was sort of like a choose your own tasting menu and recommended 2-4 plates per person. I do think some of the plates are more main course and some are more appetizer, I'm not sure why they don't split them out that way. Would recommend checking with the staff to see if you've ordered too much or not enough. All the food we had was great, and I really enjoyed the selection of plates. The lamb ribs were a standout on flavor and texture. Really unique, unlike any lamb dish I've ever had before. They were definitely on the fattier side though, so keep that in mind. The steak tartare was good, a nice sized portion. It could have used a bit more crusty bread to go along with it, but the house bread made a fine substitute here. Overall the flavor was a bit weak here too, think honestly even a pinch of salt would have gone a long way here, probably would go with something else next time. The amatriciana was fantastic. Really nice amount of sauce. Touch of spice. Little chunks of crisp yet chewy guanciale. The pasta was a bit overcooked actually, but again not too much to complain about here. Biggest standout was the hanger steak. Really tender, bold in flavor. The mushroom that came with it was incredible. It was actually cross-hatched, which I've never seen before. Really nice accoutrement. Additionally the leek latke was a fun side, really tasty, though a tad salty. I had the 1875 cocktail, and really enjoyed this spirit forward cocktail which was well balanced and a better twist on a manhattan vibe. I thought about ordering another cocktail but when asking the waiter about another, he seemed confused at my request for something spirit forward. He suggested a drink, but then also said it was nothing like my first drink which is what I actually wanted. Skipped the second drink and just went for a beer instead. Overall really enjoyed the meal. Definitely a bit on the pricier side, so keep that in mind that you're ordering a handful of plates and not just 2. Some small adjustments in the kitchen and with the staff I think would really make this place shine. But certainly a place I'd love to come back to and try some other things off the menu.

Lamb leg was horrible, barely edible
Joann T.

Got a private room for around 20 people. Nice server but they messed up our order quite a lot, they kept giving people the wrong dishes it was almost comical. Lobster appetizer rolls were delicious. I had ordered the lamb leg but it was not cooked well, super chewy, I had to spit it out, couldn't get a good piece in. Other colleagues said the steak frites were good. The only dish I'd come back for is the whipped feta, flavor and texture was perfection

Lobster Newburg

One of the best vegetarian options in the city. The broccoli and the celery root were fantastic. The bread is delicious. Service was good, if not a bit cold.

Sunflower risotto
Danyel M.

Dinner is always fantastic here! We wanted to try their fall menu and overall it was pretty tasty. For starters, my hubby ordered the oysters and we shared the salad with tahini dressing and apples. It was OK but I didn't love it. I wasn't a fan of the tahini dressing. They brought out bread which was delicious. My hubby ordered the tagliolini pasta with the seafood and I ordered the ham hock croquettes and crostini. The croquettes were my favorite. I did not care for the crostini because the bread was too thick and not toasted at all. I think it was the same bread as the one they brought with the butter. Our drinks were super tasty and refreshing. My hubby ordered the seasonal drink which was a pumpkin old fashioned and I had the balance and composure. We took a dessert home and it was OK-it was the blueberry cornbread shortcake-it was tasty but heavier than I expected. All in all, we had a fun evening and enjoyed our meal. Make sure to make a reservation thru Resy so you don't have to wait! This place is usually busy on the weekends.

Lamb shoulder hash, Grilled Grass Fed Hanger Steak*, rose, gin cocktail
Miranda S.

This is a great place to visit for great vibes, waterfront views, excellent service and farm to table quality food. I came here for brunch with a friend and really enjoyed it. I got the lamb shoulder hash and she got the steak & eggs. I wish there were more significant pieces of lamb in the hash - lamb was really shredded and mixed in with the sweet potato. However the food quality was top notch - you can tell it's farm to table and I ate the whole thing. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and wine list and provided great service. A couple of things to note - the portion sizes were smaller and there was no coffee on the brunch menu - maybe they do serve coffee and it's just not on the menu. I was in the mood for a coffee with my brunch so that was a bummer. Based on the quality of the food, I'm sure the dinner here is probably great and this is a place worth revisiting for dinner service.

Squid Ink Cassarecce
Claire Y.

We didn't have a reservation but was able to walk in and got seated at a table. The restaurant is on the pier and has a boardwalk. Food is absolutely delicious, even the complimentary bread and butter are tasty too We ordered the squid ink pasta, grilled salmon, and the short ribs. The short ribs taste soo good and highly recommend! Service is average, our server is not super attentive and kinda has a weird attitude, which is the reason why I'm only giving it a 4 stars instead of 5.

The most uncomfortable chairs ever sadly
Whitney M.

Definitely late to the game here, but this place is amazing. Came for brunch recently with my husband on a slow winter day and had a lovely meal. Started with the patisserie basket which was amazing. Each pastry was perfect, no notes. The pastries are served with butter and two amazing fruit spreads, definitely elevated an already incredible item. I had a cocktail and hot coffee, cocktail was bright and refreshing and the hot coffee was fantastic (I feel like a lot of restaurants don't have good coffee and this was not the case here). I had the smashburger for my entree which was very cheesy and had a great sauce. I really appreciate that the sesame bun did not disintegrate and held up well. Fries were very tasty and a very generous portion. Service was excellent, this place feels both high end and cozy at the same time, the service definitely matched. The space is stunning, excellent views of the water and I can't wait to come back in the summer. The one sour spot was the chairs. I feel terrible for bringing it up, but that's how uncomfortable the chairs are. They have a very deep seat and a slanted back, so you end up sitting perched on the edge of the chair. I am on the short side (5'4") but both my husband and I struggled to get comfortable. If you are over 6 feet I feel like you wouldn't notice any issues. Some of the tables have cushioned benches which are likely more comfortable. Hopefully outdoor seating is different.

Had a reservation for dinner with special friends. Our collective first time there. Service and ambiance were excellent though it would've been perfect if the weather cooperated. Their menu is a small plates approach but many are priced at entree range so this is a very expensive meal overall. They recommended 2-3 dishes per person which was close in our experience. Likely 2 pp fine. The food was delicious with some standouts being the tilefish crudo, special heirloom tomato salad, lamb ribs, feta dip, and squid ink pasta (very seafood forward). Drinks were also very good including the mocktails.

Libbie A.

Great place for brunch! Fantastic service from Lissette! Beautiful view from the patio. Cocktails and patisserie basket were perfect. Lobster popover and Cubano were delicious. Dessert menu looked good but we were too full. We will be back!

Croquettes - skip it
Nicole B.

This restaurant is quite cozy. I love the booth seating and the layout of the place. We were greeted right away upon entering. We had reservation and didn't have to wait long. Food is in smaller portion, meant to be shared. I ordered an espresso martini and it was great. Some dishes were amazing and just have enough flavors. A few of the dishes were okay. I would love to come back in the summer so we can take a walk on the pier after dinner. It's a great location for a date night.

Steak and eggs, short rib hash
Lourdes G.

No better way to beat the cold than with the hot chocolate cart here. So fun and such a good idea (also incredibly tasty). The marshmallows they make changed my life, a store bought marshmallow will never compare. Food was also to die for!! I got the short rib hash and my boyfriend got the steak and eggs. So many fun flavors that work so well together. Fun location on the pier and had a quaint vibe for being a decently sized place. Service was great, very attentive and never let us run out of water, did I mention they make your hot chocolate table side!! 10/10, no notes.

Would this be an ok spot for older kids - like 7 and 12?

I would say it depends on how mature they are. This is definitely a restaurant that I can't imagine kids running around or even being loud it.

How about parking?

There are garages around the restaurant, but I don't think any specific to the restaurant. I suggest using spot hero, which is an app you can use to reserve a parking spot and they are usually cheaper.

Excellent food! Excellent service! Excellent atmosphere (with food delivered personally by Chef…read moreMei.) A must go for creative, tasty food and friendly staff. A++++++

Fusion in the best possible way!…read more Moonshine 152 is near our son's apartment and we've only been twice.. but both times we were absolutely enthralled by the options, the vibe, and the FOOD! It is soooo good! The menu has so much variety that my only complaint is that I can't physically eat a fraction of the things that look good! Today's awesomeness according to the eaters: Chicken wings- outstanding, required if you like chicken! Meatballs- very tasty and tender and seductively fragrant with a touch of tang. Yum. Chicken dumplings- deliciously! (I asked for one word, there you have it Braised rabbit pasta- creamy but delicate, slightly tangy, tender and succulent! Short rib beef bimbab- creative, nice cut sticky glaze beef, lots of tasty textures Cajun Tilapia- The fish, the green tomatoes, the shrimp, and the sauce each have unique textures and flavors that made me smile down to the last desperate plate scrape! I recommend Moonshine 152 to everybody that visits Boston. It checks so many boxes that as I sit here waiting for dessert (pavlova, excited!) I wish again I could stuff in some of these other entrees! ENJOY and tell us about the other dishes!

Came early on a Friday night with my 2 kids after researching family friendly restaurants near my…read morehotel, wanted to try someplace I hadn't been before. Their menu online looked great and we were able to walk in with no reservations early on a Friday night, although they were starting to fill up more as we left. The crab cake was delish & my baby devoured most of it. The salmon salad was tasty but the salmon itself was very salty, salt was literally all I could taste. The lettuce was very crisp and fresh and everything else was good so I didn't feel the need to complain also with the consideration that the chef intended to make the salmon salty to pair with the rest of the dish. The vibe was nice, a bit elevated. My server Michael was great! I would definitely order the crab cake again and try many other items on the menu that all looked superb. Thanks Moxies!

This review is a tough one for me because I loved Moxies so much after our first visit that we had…read moreto go back a second time. Dinner was truly unbelievable. We were seated immediately, the atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and Sarah, our waitress, was top-notch--friendly, helpful, and genuinely delightful. We started with the Maple Glazed Brussels Sprouts, which were so yummy. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed the Spicy Tuna Dynamite Roll and absolutely loved the Sticky Toffee Pudding for dessert. I had the Vegetarian Power Bowl, and it was one of those meals you remember long after the trip is over. Since Moxies was just a few steps from our hotel, we thought it would be the perfect place for lunch before heading back to Arizona. We were offered a table inside or on the second-floor patio, and we chose the patio. Maybe that was our mistake. From the moment we sat down, it felt like a completely different restaurant. The atmosphere was very casual, but unfortunately so was the service. Our waitress was forgetful, clueless, and at times borderline disrespectful. Our food arrived completely cold after apparently sitting for over 30 minutes, yet there was no acknowledgment of the delay--not even a simple apology. I honestly couldn't believe this was the same place we had raved about the night before. If I were reviewing only our dinner, this would be an easy 5 stars. But I can't ignore what happened the next day. Maybe we were just unlucky. Maybe the patio has a different rhythm than the dining room. I really don't know. I just wish our last memory before heading back to Arizona had been as wonderful as our first.

The brussel sprouts were not good as it tasted like someone put an entire lemon on them. It was also outrageous to charge an 18% service charge and a 3% admin fee on food that I picked up from the restaurant. 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.
