Our new favorite Boston spot, we were greeted upon entering by a very on top of her game hostess, the menu has something for everyone, a wonderful list of wines by-the-glass, and a professional wait staff who know how to pace the service. Our salads, entrees, and shared dessert were each perfectly prepared. We shall certainly return!

Ma Maison is a small restaurant with limited seating. Reservations are highly recommended. My wife and I shared a 14 oz veal chop cooked to perfection and topped with a mushroom cream sauce. We added a side of mashed potatoes. For dessert we had vanilla cream brûlée. Service was excellent and attentive. One of the best meals I have ever had at a restaurant. Highly recommend!!
