"Excellent dining experience. The pea dish was an absolute show stopper and the lamb was a 10/10. Service was great and the atmosphere is very cool as you practically feel like you're hanging in the chefs elevated living room. Overall the food is amazing. Could nit pick a few things from a couple dishes, scallops seemed a bit low quality and the dish flavors didn't mesh well, the duck was a bit chewy, but nit picks for what was overall an excellent dinner."

"We have been to this restaurant a few times before but it's our first visit during the winter months. The restaurant felt cold inside and our experience was made worse since we were seated right next to the door. Every time diners entered or exited the small restaurant, cold air rushed in. We had to order hot tea to keep ourselves a little warmer.

The overall meal felt lacking in flavor, though well cooked. The one scallop in the first course was tiny. If only one scallop is in a dish, it should at least be a reasonable size to call it a course and not an amuse-bouche. The honeynut squash dish was interesting, though it was served cold, which didn't help our need for warmth. There were three small pieces of octopus in the tomato stew. The stew itself tasted mostly of just tomatoes. The menu didn't mention that the duck was a confit. We had assumed that it would be slices of duck breast. When asked about this after the plate was served, the waiter said that it depended on what parts of the duck is still available on that day. Since we don't generally like the confit texture, we didn't enjoy this dish much. Had we known this ahead of time, we would have opted for the fish option. Lastly, the cornbread in the dessert was a very small piece and was very dry and crumbly. We didn't care for this at all.

We didn't have a good night here. We had enjoyed previous meals at this restaurant before and were looking forward to this one but the meal didn't satisfy and the cold temperature didn't help.

The wait staff, however, was great, very friendly and polite. One of them kept checking to make sure that the outside door was closed to not let in more cold air. We appreciated that."

"Definitely worth trying at least once or for a special occasion, but don’t come too hungry.

I am loathe to give anything less than 5 stars because the service we received was simply outstanding and considerate, but I’m a reviewer who weights the food more heavily than other elements.

Regarding the outstanding service: The restaurant staff stayed late because our group simply couldn’t stop chatting plus they let a member of our group who has celiac join us to eat even though he couldn’t participate in the tasting menu.

On the food: We had some very delicious bites but not every dish hit. The scallop amuse bouche was very delicious, as was my hake (fish) main. Unfortunately, some of the other dishes such as the seafood squid ink pasta tasted bland and the dessert and pea puree dishes were forgettable.
Reflecting on the meal, I also feel that it lacked some cohesion between dishes.
Another thing to note: portions are modest, so don’t come very hungry. My partner heated up a TJ‘s meal when we got home.

All in all, I would still suggest giving it a try because it’s a unique concept in Boston (esp with BYOB) despite the fact that the meal as a whole didn’t knock my socks off."
