Robyn RJanuary 18, 2017It's a super chill place with cool candle lighting and the waitstaff is really nice. Also really awesome tomato soup. Not super busy around dinner time, at least on weekdays.
One of my favorite bars in the city. Drinks are always great (and strong!), and food is so reasonably priced, that it always makes sense to start, end, or spend your night here.
I was genuinely sad when this place closed for a bit. I'm glad it's open again. Everything on the menu is delicious, the cocktails are on point, & the prices are affordable. Service is always quick.
Merida SAugust 18, 2013Great wine and steak tips. Love this place- it's wonderful for a reasonably priced date night to get quality food and wine. Goat cheese crostini and a Malbec are a safe (and delicious) bet!
Rebecca B.July 19, 2018The food is good. The service is even better. Oscar, the bartender, makes an awesome cocktail. It’s a fun atmosphere but it is very loud, making conversation slightly difficult.
Liz MMarch 7, 2016Awesome steak tips! I wondered when my server didn't bring me a steak knife, but I didn't even need it. They might actually be the best steak tips I've ever had, just perfect!
Jake SmithJanuary 6, 2013Great atmosphere in this subterranean Downtown Crossing spot. The Spaghetti Bolognese, with the huge portions, meat and onion sauce, and garlic bread, is a great dish.- James Moreau-DrewNovember 26, 2016Been a great place to chill out and eat a steak or steak tips. Also, a great selection of happy meals aka beer (millern high life) and a shot.
Jen14221April 2, 2014I had a miniature adorable bottle of Pinot Noir and a grilled ham and Swiss cheese sandwich. So wonderful! I may have a new favorite spot in Boston.
Enrico ManaloMarch 27, 2018Cool basement joint. Nice cocktail specials, though a little limited for beer. Gets really jammed during the evening rush sometimes. Pretty decent burger too.
Awesome cocktails, and if you can grab a seat, I definitely recommend at the bar - the bartenders are great!
Jeremy KrantzMay 15, 2012Order their bruschetta appetizer and share. It's absolutely delicious and features a juicy, amazing tomatoes. One of my fav appetizers... anywhere.
Adam SigelFebruary 21, 2015Big portions, simple menu. The Mac n cheese is legit. Get one for the table. No man should take that on himself.- Bar staff is awesome, and you have to try the bacon Mac & cheese! Good enough to ship to other states!!
Boston.comJanuary 9, 2012"The blue cheese is incredible," said a patron. "Dare I say the best dipping blue I've had. Delicious enough to make up for the moistness of the wing." Read more
The best place in town for a Sol & Fernet. Also good outlets to charge up on long night.
Rajarajan PalanimuruganMay 24, 2014Delicious food and very reasonably priced. Try the steamed mussels, and of course the mac and cheese.- Jeremy KrantzAugust 13, 2014Great food and drinks and even better value and service! Great spot overall.
BC OJune 29, 2019I still love the food but the cocktails are sub par. I would love to see more classic cocktails which I think would elevate this place .
Run by one of the best proprietors in the city, this joint should be on the nation's"do not miss" list
MattOctober 8, 2011Best bar food in Boston. Wings, mussels, and Mac n cheese are all great, but you really can't go wrong here.- Boston's best bar and American fare for value. My favorites are the steak tips and the jerk chicken dishes.
Gianna NebbiaJanuary 30, 2015The wings are phenomenal... Everything's inexpensive and the drinks are creative
Steph ParkerSeptember 24, 2013This place is a hidden gem. The salads are a generous portion & way more tasty than you'd expect.
Josh ZAugust 2, 2012Amazing food ! Bravo! Everything was perfectly cooked ! Bruschetta *****. Chicken jerk and beef tips five stars!!!
- BravoNovember 22, 2010Josh Childs is the owner and the nicest bartender in Boston has the coldest Miller High Life in town. -Ed Cotton, Top Chef
Caitlin C.September 10, 2013Eat anything, drink everything, and tip your cap to the real mayor (he's behind the bar).
Eric GeorgeSeptember 27, 2013Mac & Cheese w/ bacon and the Meatloaf. Do it or forever be filled with regret.
Trevor SuarezAugust 20, 2014The Mac and Cheese was soooo good. But the Jerk Chicken was one of a kind.
Tim CNovember 1, 2013Mac n Cheese is excellent, but be forewarned it might take years off your life.
Sophie ChungJuly 16, 2013Ugh. Forget the Mac and cheese. Go for the steak tips or one of the sandwiches!
Kyle BillemeyerNovember 11, 2012They have a drink specials menu you might have to ask for. The winter specials are solid.

The calamari is a must. No reservations accepted, so large groups can be difficult during lunch hours. Worth the wait.
