• Greek • Fort Point Channel

Booked 89 times today

Committee draws inspiration from the modern day “ouzeri,” a casual meeting spot that can be found throughout Greece. It’s the kind of welcoming place where people get together to talk, relax, and bond over a fresh-made meal. Greeks know that delicious food sets the stage for a great meeting—whether you’re discussing a business deal or simply catching up with old friends. Committee, conceived by a Greek chef, embraces this tradition. Committee veers from the expected by designing its menu around “Meze”—a culinary concept that encourages people to sample and share. Our creative chefs prepare small sharable plates that are brought to the table throughout the meal, allowing diners to experience a wide range of dishes featuring only the freshest local ingredients. If unforgettable food, a fun crowd, and an electric urban scene are on your agenda, the consensus is Committee.

We were delighted in every way with Deux Ave: fabulous food, delightful service, great table, and lovely ambiance. The halibut and ravioli entrees were delicious and beautifully presented. The chocolate soufflé we shared was elegantly presented and perfect. The sommelier was gracious in discussing our wine options (a great affordable selection). Though we’ve enjoyed dining at Deux Ave in the past, this last visit was the best, we can’t wait to return!

Everything was great but only comment would be I wish they had more options for people who don't necessarily love Greek food, maybe a beef burger or pizza.

Mistral is one of the great Boston restaurants where you can count on a high standard of excellence whenever you go there. Food is always perfectly prepared and delicious. Service is uniformly outstanding. It can get loud as the evening gets later and the dining room fills up, but if you opt to go before 8 pm it is always marvelous.

The food was delicious and I loved the ambience. The cocktails were a bit pricey at $16-$20 but that seems to be the standard here in Boston. If you want to have a romantic and quiet evening I do recommend Terra. Our waiter also gave us a sweet cream gelato to celebrate my fiancé and I’s engagement! It was a great time!
