About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for groups
  • Good for business meals
Blue Ribbon Brasserie is built on the vision that originated over 30 years ago in New York City's SoHo at the legendary original Blue Ribbon, well known as the restaurant "where chefs go to eat." Blue Ribbon is also famously ready to serve here in Boston!

The space is highlighted by a 70-foot white Carrera marble bar, an oyster bar, and a 16-seat private dining room. The soaring interior has been designed as a collection of intimate dining spaces featuring cozy leather banquettes, shaded table lamps and bistro tables, and a light-filled solarium with floor-to-ceiling windows that look out into the neighborhood and beckon inside the Boston community and visitors alike.

    Was OK. Food not bad but not great. Menu sparse and not with coherent identity. Space was a more of a step up from a bar rather than an elegant brasserie. Seems likely they are catering to Fenway tourists. Would not return. Staff trying hard,though.

    Wonderful dinner to celebrate my son’s graduation. Drinks were awesome and food was delicious. Servers were attentive even though the restaurant was super busy with lots of large groups. Will definitely return!
