    Food and service were great. Placed is a bit cramped with small tables very close together. Noise level is high. A bit expensive but worth it.

    Had a fabulous meal and experience. Great service, cozy atmosphere but with a great vibe and buzz, Had the grilled halibut but ordered a little extra coconut curry sauce which was excellent and served piping hot! Also shared a delicious beet salad to start.

    Service was just ok and the food not great. Took 45 minutes to receive dinner after having a salad. Overrated

    All the food was super delicious! Ambience was great! We were in a quieter back room, as requested. Would've liked the server to stop by a bit more quickly.

    Brought my husband for his birthday. We loved the ambiance, the vibes, & the drinks! The service was surprisingly lackluster. The classic chowder was watery & bad. The meatballs were overdone & dry. The oyster Rockefeller was okay and our entrees were decent but required salt & pepper. Prices were very reasonable for Beacon Hill, and that was a pleasant surprise.
