She said: Yum, yum Tofu!! Okay I’ll stop being fat and talk first about the atmosphere… the outside is cool looking.. then you walk in… Small bar, small lounge. A little section with hanging beads and a tv… people watching the the game. Upstairs is the dining room. Its beautifully filled with Southeast Asian pieces and looking outside the windows is pretty awesome. The waitress was very nice, only a little helpful. Oh!! I really like this.. instead of bread *bad bread!* they give out popcorn! It’s pretty fantastic. So popcorn was good, Chef’s Tofu thing was sooo good. oh man. SO GOOD. The apps not so good. drinks not so good. So leaving the restaurant… walking down stairs…. the lounge, is now filled with people and there is a DJ… interesting..
He said: This restaurant lounge, look a lot better on the pictures of the website, it has an strange set up, it feels like it a bit divided, the food was good, I tried the rack of lamb it was tasty, soft and well cooked, it came with smashed potatoes and green beans. we had some baked oysters they were a bit salty but i like them and the usual tuna tatar, I was feeling adventurous and try different drinks from the menu. I didn’t got lucky non of the ones i tried were that great. Is is a trendy place and is at the heart of Harvard square so if you are in the are and want get some good lamb. go there.

General: American and loud. A place to grab you’re after work cocktail. Located on Boylston across from the new Mandarin Hotel, this place is always full of fun people. Located: 755 Boylston St. www.voxboston.com
She Said: This is starting to be my second home! The staff here is wonderful, and the food always smells good. I’ve had oysters here, which were pretty good. The MacnCheese is good, but I don’t really like macnhcheese in general. The vox bruscetta.. eh.. You know where I’m going.. It’s a fun place to meet with friends, have a little nibble or a salad. The presentation is pretty and the food smells good, but it’s not my favorite dinner place. Go to Vox if you’re looking for a good time and a great atmosphere. You’ll get it.
He Said: I am like always here, this is like the local bar, that everyone knows you and you know everyone, lucky for the food is pretty good, we come here just to chill any other day, the last time we had food there, i was to drunk to rmember, haha. but she said it was good.. Being there so many times I had tried many things including brunch. I will totally recomend this place to any one. just go chill and ejoy.. We will keep updating this posts since this place is an ongoing thing.

The BeeHive
Author: sophiecore
General: This loud, friendly, jazz restaurant is located in the arts district on Tremont. You’ll find everyone of all ages dining and wining, and enjoying the atmosphere. Located 541 Tremont St, Btwn Dartmouth & E. Berkley St Telephone: 617-423-0069
She Said: As I entered this restaurant I knew I’d never be able take my mum here as she would not be able to hear a word. However, she probably wouldn’t enjoy the setting at all.. For me, and for my friends, this place is wonderful. Yes, it is a bit loud (sorry to those that had to sit right next to the stage), but The Beehive is worth it. The menu isn’t large, so it’s good for those who have a hard time choosing. Started off with the Tuna Tartare of course… not as good as I would have hoped, but I didn’t have high expectations anyways. The oysters weren’t up to par either. I also had the Baked Zucchini stuffed with Ricotta. It was decent. I think that The Beehive is a fun place to go with your friends. Live entertainment is always fun no matter what. The food here is just okay, the people are pretty friendly, but the scene is what matters.
He Said: Pretty cool place, I had a great time here, they at first put us on on the table right next to the stage, just to close to a whole drum set, there is no way I could of had dinner there, so we decided to wait for an other table, the place is pretty busy but th wait wasn’t long. The next table was small to close to the neighbors oh well. We tried some speciallity coktails and we shared most of the food, I agree with her review on all the food, the only thing I ate different was the Prosciutto pizza, that actually was pretty good. After we meet up with a friend of mine and her group, we stayed for a round of drinks at the downstairs bar. again pretty packed so is hard to get the attention of those bartenders. Over all I liked the place, is good spot to hang out have some food and fun. The band that night was ok, the bass player wasn’t keeping the tempo and missed some notes but thats a review for an other blog.

City Bar - The Lenox Hotel
Author: sophiecore
General: City Bar is located in the Lenox Hotel. This is a pretty fancy place. I believe this bar is kind of for the “older” crowd, but it’s very nice. I saw a range of people there. Located: 61 Exeter St, Btwn Boylston & Blagden St.
She Said: We didn’t eat at City Bar, but there were drinks around the table. He and She took She’s mum, K around the town, for a night cap, the stop was City Bar. I had the Guava Martini, which He recommended. Not a bad choice. I thought the flavor was tasty. However, K didn’t enjoy her dry martini as much. I didn’t ask her why, which I should have, but all I know is that my mum knows her martini’s and if this wasn’t the cut, well then don’t order the dry martini here! The next night, we did a night cap again at City Bar. I had the Ruby which is a champagne cocktail. I thought it was so good! I’d order it again and AGAIN. They just used Pom juice…. so there is nothing special, but I enjoyed it. K thought it tasted like cough medicine! As for Service… it was accommodating. K is hard of hearing and City Bar is quiet enough for anyone.
He Said: I like this bar, is good is well decorated and “confi”, every time I come here is almost a rule to get guava martini’s they are so good, I am glad she like it. It is a good place to end up the night. quiet and close to all the other croweded bars, specially after 12. Beware thoug they are very strict about wearing hats, so all those sports fans out there trying to wear your team colors on the head, this is not the spot. I’ll kepp you posted as my next try will be the expresso martinis. cheers!!!
