Boston Munch

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 prosutto 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.

General: New york type style Japanese restaurant. Older crowd, expensive, elegant, professional and damn good. Located: 116 Washington St, Boston, MA 02118 Phone: 617-482-8868

She Said: So sleek and pretty, amazing, highly rated, highly professional! The dishes were presented in such a beautiful manor. The setting was great too. Quiet and delicate. The service was really nice too. Our waitress was somewhat helpful, I thought, but she always asked if we needed anything. Tonight we brought my roommate to dinner. I thought it would be good to get her input on this, so hopefully she’ll write a tidbit later on her experience. (pretty much she hadn’t had much sushi before, but enjoyed the experience!!) Dishes ordered included Spicy edamame, seaweed salad, Yellowtail and Salmon sashimi, some crazy dish that I just randomly ordered and the Tuna Tartare, oh and some oyster thing.. Maybe He’ll remember. The Tuna tartare was very tasty. It had a lot of flavor for just a little bit. I didn’t enjoy the spicy edamame as much. I really just enjoyed the setting at Oishii and the displays of the elegant food. Yes, it is very expensive, but the ambience is amazing!

He said: Ok everyone that have been there tell me this is their favorite restaurant, I now agree, She just described the food very accurate, everything was totally good. This night was a sort of special for she and he, she invited her friend, and that was the experience for me, she share with us that she wasn’t to familiar with Japanese food. thru the years I always have introduce friends to all sort of foods, always get all kind of mixed reactions. same with our friend here, I can said she had never had oysters or caviar, but we insisted and she tried… yay! Place is great, I am thinking actually to throw a party there soon. my advice just go and enjoy like we did.

General: This Tapas restaurant is also a martini bar. Located in the South End, 28 Degrees is a trendy, hip, and fun place to have drinks and dine at any time of the week. The weekend, of course, is backed and loud so make sure you have a reservation. Located: 1 Appleton St (at the corner of Tremont St).

She Said: I have to say, I’m a little disappointed that I don’t find more “bad” places in Boston to eat at… so far everything is fairly great and 28 Degrees is no exception. I’d come here again in a heart beat. First of all, the service was fantastic. Vince, our waiter, was great and very nice. I’m sure you’re more interested in the food and wine though…. Food — KILLER! These oyster were better than I’ve had in a while. (Between 5pm and 7pm, you can get oysters for a dollar). My Yellowfin Tuna Tartare was so good too. I had to have tuna tartare that was my input for the night. I know I’m more of a vegetarian, but I took a small break and had seafood this weekend. Next we had these mini Maine crab tacos with Mango. I did not enjoy this as much as the other dishes. The seared scallops were also a hit around the table. The last dish was the Spicy Grilled Shrimp… I did not try this dish though, so He could tell you more. For drinks we had a bottle of Dog Point. If you don’t know this wonderful white wine, SHAME ON YOU! It is fantastic and went very well with dinner. We also had 2 dessert drinks to share and try. The Espresso Martini was very good (if you like these types of martinis). The Raspberry Truffle Martini not so good. It was too sweet for my liking. Too “desserty” My Favorite part of the restaurant is the BATHROOM. the ceiling is awesome (water) and it was just fun and cool. So make sure you check that out!

He Said: 28 degrees, I am kind of trying to figure out why the name. is 28 degrees Celsius / Fahrenheit??????? or just a random angle on right triangle….. I don’t know? but what i know the food i had here was pretty good! Yeah the setting was nice laungue trendy, almost NYC. which i think is a good thing

So we went to try a new place and also because I wanted to celebrate she coming back and she’s mom being in town. any way long story short I loved the oysters…… wow so good. if you go there and don’t have them, It’s a Pink Panther pop. shame of you for not liking oysters. you can review our menu here or in an others sites. but i had a great time here. I also will have an expresso tinny for dessert and once is time to break the seal go to the bath room, is a pretty place. I am sure she and he will have more stories from this place…. will keep you posted.

General: Located street level below the Shops at Prudential Center, Haru Boston’s 6,100 sq. ft. space boasts a Japanese garden, bamboo floors and wooden footbridge. The elegant sushi bar takes pride of place in the main dining room along with custom pieces from local artists, and the sake and cocktail bar is a smart spot for after-work drinks or late night people-watching. 55 Huntington Avenue, Boston.

She Said: Haru is good, but not fantastic. This was the first Japanese restaurant that I went to in Boston. It has all your japanese needs of course, and I’m not saying it bad at all, I did enjoy it, but I think because it’s a chain, the appeal for me is gone. They did make me a good espresso martini though!

He Said: For a chain mall type restaurant this is not bad, they have a good menu selection and the food is not bad, Is not you average chain restaurant type, I would say it falls on the upper category. Deco is de accorde and prices are right. Drink menu is good and the staff is friendly. if you are shopping at the pru, and get hungry and the mood for some sushi. yeah is a good option.
