An intimate setting, crowded under the wrong circumstances, but still enticing. Sound is a little hollow, but once you're in you will realize why. Really cool regardless.
What a great venue for an intimate night of music. Delicious and affordable vegetarian food and wine/beer! Loved it.
Great small, intimate music venue. Catch some local high quality, moderately priced shows with good food to boot.

(Best of Boston 2013-MIDDLE EASTERN) Improper says,"Ana Sortun's Inman Square flagship, long adored as a romantic dining spot, serves some of the most nuanced cuisine in town."
Exquisite Quail Kebob & Duck Shish! The Spinach Falafel & Devil Egg were also wonderful! For a drink, try the delicious Siena cocktail. The outdoor terrace also provides a romantic environment.
Describing it feels akin to explaining that the MFA’s “Dance at Bougival” is a romantic painting by Renoir, or that Kenmore Square’s Citgo sign is highly visible: If you’ve been, you already know. Read more.

Favorite Winter Activity in Cambridge: Getting cozy with a glass of scotch & some friends in the intimate Lizard Lounge basement while talented local (and national) musicians perform for you. Perfect!
Great intimate club oriental rugs candle light. Terrific sound
Best of Boston 2016: Romantic Restaurant 💑 :: Delicate house-made gelato and hand-rolled pastas with simple sauces, almost all available with a dusting of shaved truffles.
Halibut Crostini was delicious! Flatbread with ramp pesto was FABULOUS. Spearpoint oysters were on point.
They'll make almost any of the dishes vegetarian if you ask! The bucatini and farfalle were both amazing.

Saw Once Upon a Time, Jocelyn and Hello Highway on the Timeless tour here; the smaller venue allowed for an intimate show and the bands all really interacted well with the crowd! I had a great time :)
One of my favorite spots for live hip hop. Small intimate setting, gansett's priced to move.
Gnocchi was delicious & the tiramisu is to die for. Romantic ambiance and a great place for date night!
The tiramisu is to die for.
Really liked this place. Very friendly staff and the recommendations for wine a e food were perfect. Had the Sauvignon blanc wine. Very nice place for a date. And the staff will pamper you :)
Clam pasta w/ white sauce, salty. Very good and fresh, portions on the smaller side, but the right amount. Dinner is semi-formal attire, intimate lighting, nice place for a date
The Pappardelle pasta here is excellent
Lovely food, but success has made it more crowded and decidedly less romantic.
Afghan food - delicious bread - try the Kaddo!
Great place. Get anything with pumpkin in it.
The charred broccoli was outstanding. Kale salad with pistachio dressing was great too. Fresh food creatively prepared.
This ubiquitous kale salad is specifically delicious.
Its opening week went off impressively well, from an already-popular "secret" burger to a lively bar scene. Try it right away before the lines are perpetually out the door. Read more.

Fantastic theatre, great productions, seating view superb all around.

Go for the tasting menu (available on groupon) - great value and you get to try 6 courses!
Beef heart anticuchos, homemade burrata and whatever the specials are. Table seating is better than the cramped place settings at the bar at the open kitchen. Or head to the cozy bar alcove behind.
Great place to get a glass or two of wine and try a couple small plates. We had savory vidalia onion churros last time. It’s like an onion ring only better in every way.
Awesome little venue, no stage, just a piano and a sound system and whatever else the band brings. Very intimate, very fun! An all around great time
A stellar combination of beer, wine, gumbo, and the arts. Read more.

The single most essential Boston restaurant of the moment, in that here chef-owner Will Gilson is more thoroughly tackling a fresh perspective on New England cuisine than anywhere else in the world.

Amazing omakase. Loved the intimate setting with the chef. Had rare and delicious seafood like tairagai and ishidai. Nigiri was simple and highlights quality of fish
Sashimi is top notch, and now includes the richness of Hawaiian tradition, incorporating poke, and richer flavors in the new menu.
Try loco moco and kalua pork onigiri. One may think it's a little expensive but considering a Japanese izakaya setting, it's reasonable.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
