Neighbourhood: Back Bay

5.0 star rating
  4/6/2009

I couldn't have whipped up a cooler restaurant concept if I had crafted the menu, soundtrack and atmosphere myself!

Let's just say the server had to wrestle the menu out of my hands because I could NOT decide what to order. I wanted to devour…More »

5.0 star rating
  4/19/2009

Coming from Toronto where (to my knowledge) there are no cocktail bars I had absolutely no idea what to expect from my visit at Drink. I'm almost angry that I don't live in Boston because after returning to Toronto I was reminded that I won't be able…More »

I'm adding Neptune to my list of favourite dining experiences of all time. Everything about the meal was perfect, from the moment we arrived and took our seats at the bar to the moment we left.

Bear in mind that this review comes from the most…More »

5.0 star rating
  4/6/2009

I loved the European feel of The Eliot Hotel - it was so charming and quaint, and the decor was lovely. The staff represented the ultimate in professionalism and were polite and helpful at all times. On my last day in Boston it was raining pretty…More »

Neighbourhood: North End

4.0 star rating
  4/6/2009

At 11pm on a Saturday night this bakery was completely at capacity with hungry patrons all vying for a glimpse of the cannolis on display. There were four or five filling options (cream, custard, ricotta, mascarpone cheese) and the option to have the…More »

Cambridge, MA 02138

Category: American (New)

Neighbourhood: Harvard Square

4.0 star rating
  10/14/2009

Upon arrival at Logan International Airport I scrutinized Leighann F's impeccably detailed travel directions and easily found my way over to Upstairs On The Square for some lunch. I plopped my 'twice-delayed Porter flight' ass down on the seat and…More »

1 Bennett St
Cambridge, MA 02138
(617) 661-5050

Category: Italian

Neighbourhood: Harvard Square

3.0 star rating
  4/19/2009

I came here during Boston's Restaurant Week and was amped for an outstanding meal after reading about Rialto's stellar reputation and reviews. I enjoyed and was satisfied with my food but didn't find it to be remarkable in any way (hence the 3 stars…More »

Boston, MA 02228
(617) 236-1213

Categories: Accessories, Women's Clothing

Neighbourhood: Back Bay

3.0 star rating
  4/6/2009

There's no way these prices aren't marked up to begin with - even with 75% off sales like the one I witnessed two weekends ago, the clothing is outrageously priced for what you're getting. Nearly everything was falling apart at the shelved stage,…More »

  11/2/2009

I almost tore a strip off Tara L when we plunked ourselves down in a booth at South Street at 2am and she declared "Ugh, I'm not even really hungry." I was going to force feed her if I had to, but luckily she wisened up when the food came around and…More »
