Excellent food and service. Several of our group shared a selection of oysters, and individually ordered blue crab salad, ceviche, yellowfin tuna tartare, romanesco cauliflower, Maine mussels, halibut, bouillabaisse, and Arctic char. Everyone loved what they got! Service was very good. Our table was beneath a couple of very efficient space heaters but our server immediately agreed to shut one off when we requested it. They do not offer dessert or coffee, which struck us as bit unique. Note also that they add a 20% pre-tax gratuity automatically. Note to mobility-impaired diners: the restaurant entrance is up five steps and through a vestibule (two doors). The Google listing says front entrance and restrooms are wheelchair accessible, but I did not notice an elevator at the entrance nor was I offered to use an elevator when I inquired about the location of the restrooms. Restrooms are down two flights of stairs which are also used by waitstaff and porters to bring stuff up from the kitchen down there. It’s possible they have accessibility options that you must ask about.

It was a Saturday night and Eastern Standard was the place to be! Excellent food (carrot ginger soup is a must and swordfish with coconut rice special should be a regular on the menu!) and attentive service (we had a few requests as it was a business dinner) made for a great experience. Love the cocktail menu, variety on the dinner menu and fun, festive atmosphere. Oh, and easy parking. Will definitely be back.

Boston is filled with amazing sites, history and cuisine options but I was glad to have chosen Boston View and Beacon to celebrate my anniversary. Amazing night view and delicious food with very polite staff.

I have not been to Petit Robert for a couple of years and the food and service remain the same at high quality. My friend and I had a wonderful lunch. The only minor criticism was that one of the waitresses was loud. I could hear her from 3 tables away. Given the cozy dining room it could seem a little jarring. Her service was good. It is just the awareness of noise level she needs to become more aware of. My Fromage salad was light and tasty as I expected. Since it was not crowded, they made sure to place us a couple of tables away from other patrons. Very thoughtful. I will go back again in 2025!

We enjoy dining at Aquitaine. Our favorite dishes are the Sole and Duck breast as well as their swordfish special. The cocktails are excellent! We want to especially make note of the servers, they are so gracious and helpful~ The hosts at the desk are so welcoming and friendly! Great place to meet friends or celebrate a special occasion~ Highly recommended ~
