Where is the Best Bar Scene in Boston, Massachusetts?

I love Restaurant Week. It’s a smidge of an addiction. I’ll book 3-5 ressies each of the weeks, and more often than not, I’ll go to all of them. I love a bargain, what can I say?Toro is the BEST deal for Restaurant Week.Reasons?1. You order off the real menu. No scraping the bottom of the freezer case, just cuz it’s cheapo week. The ENTIRE menu, too. Not just these 4 options. The whole. Darn. Thing. 2. The more people you go with, the more tapas you order. Go with a group of 3? Choose 1 app, 8 tapas, 1 dessert each. I was with a party of 5, I think we got something insane like 18 choices. Whatever it was, we were rolling out of there. 3. Fanastic wine list. Try something crazy. Also, the waitstaff is really helpful in this regard.4. The food is amazing. Ken Oringer doesn’t mess around. I endorse the “weird stuff”, aka tripe, beef heart, etc. Weird stuff is good, especially in tapas. Give it a try. Short list of faves: Ham-wrapped dates; corazon a la plancha; corn on the cob

Classic Italian cuisine is made hip at this centrally located Back Bay trattoria. The large, bustling dining room is especially good for groups, while the mosaic-tiled and dimly-lit enoteca or the stylish bar offer intimacy. (The outdoor patio is a lush oasis come summer.) The kitchen’s emphasis is on fresh ingredients, resulting in a daily menu of traditional dishes. Over a dozen chic starters (like crunchy eggplant with spicy tomato sauce, oregano and parmigiano) kick off the dining options. Housemade pastas are constructed from the freshest ingredients; entrees are rich without being heavy. Desserts, including an immaculate vanilla panna cotta, are irresistible.Photo courtesy of Via Matta

Let me start by saying the food is amazing. There are a few things that i think they should do to make this a true 5 star experience. First off I think they should take reservation especially on the weekends. I went there on a Saturday night and it was packed. Secondly, we waited two hours for apps and salad and then before we knew it our meals were out immediately following. But the taste was well worth the wait. My party enjoyed a few of their delicious martini’s while we waited. The girls were better with the especially long wait for the food than the guys were, pigs. Lastly, I returned there again an other night and waited an hour for martini’s and we were told that there was only one martiniologist one duty on a friday night, it would help to have two on, this was downstairs. Even though these might be annoying for some people, if you go with a group of people that you enjoy spending time with you can get a greal meal (that tastes great the next day too) and excellent drin

We’re talking $19 for a BURGER!! What ever happened to the burger being a “food for the people,” anyway? Luckily, it was Paul D’s birthday, so we had a legitimate reason to finally go, not that running a burger blog isn’t reason enough, but the time had come. Outside of the burger, not much surprised me about Radius; a reservation is necessary, the decor is stunning, parking is lousy and it would be an expensive night. Do people usually pay $14 for a cocktail? I must never go out for drinks, so I guess this is the norm. 8:00 on a Friday night I would have guessed the place would have been packed, but no, more than half the tables were empty, and that’s not just my pessimistic view coming through. We were a group of eight, late 20’s to early 30’s and about as nicely dressed as we can get, and with no dress code required, felt we deserved as good a service as anyone else. This isn’t the first place where I felt ageism was in issue and it wont be the last. If we had all worn tuxedos woul

Interested in a quick and cheap dinner, I popped into Felt shortly after 6pm for their Wednesday Ladies night and their $3 Recessionista Menu, and was made to feel very welcome by both the hostess and…
