Cleber GalvaoOctober 8, 2011i love this place.a little expensive but its worth.great music and beautiful people.
Lois BennettNovember 1, 2013Great show. I would have preferred to sit down stairs to hear the band better.
Best french toast I've ever had + live jazz music = Sunday brunch perfection
Awesome for Brunch on the weekends. Liz is an awesome waitress!
Mark GiannettiJanuary 21, 2014Had the four-top right in front of the band. Felt obliged to offer them a drink
Isaac RadnitzerMarch 7, 2020Cool atmosphere at jazz brunch, the food (we got steak and eggs + eggs Benedict) was decent but nothing special
Beverly CadoretteMay 3, 2015The food isn't that good in my opinion. Great atmosphere in a cool building and area though.
Stephanie EMarch 5, 2012Ask for the "Yes Baby, Yes" and ask for Luciene. He's the best bartender in Boston.
Lindsey FrancesMay 26, 2013Next time I'll ask for a table right near the stage, so I can dance in my seat.
Lindsey CohenOctober 11, 2013Menu pretty limited for picky eaters. Worth going to but not that cozy, definitely noisy!
Brea SimpsonAugust 28, 2018Rated best bathroom to have sex in in Boston and I didn’t even pee in it. I feel like a fool.
Enrique Colón-BacóJanuary 21, 2011Try the DonQ rum. It's great for rum and cokes. This is the first bar in Boston that carries it.
TiffanyOctober 5, 2011Service was good; disappointed a tad in the Chopped Chef winner though...preferred to deliver an onion to the kitchen and forget to return rather than take 3.4 secs more for a photo opp with a cust.
Nick VarneyMay 8, 2016Bit disappointing. The Jazz was great and the space was really cool. Sadly for a $45 prix fix brunch the food was just a bit meh.
Get a table right in front of the live music and enjoy!
Archimedes StukJanuary 27, 2012Order off the menu - the bartenders will take care of you, just give them a type of alcohol
Zac AghionFebruary 15, 2015Drafty basement seating left us shivering the whole time. Shakshuka was disappointing, so was poutine. One redeeming factor was live jazz.
Ask "Bertil" the GM to recommend a champagne or sparkling wine with your dinner. He is an award-winning sommelier and really interesting guy.
