• Greek • Fort Point Channel
Booked 96 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.

    Bistro du Midi is one of our favorite restaurants in Boston, and has been for a long time.  The food, the service, and the overall atmosphere are consistently excellent. Our recent dinner there was no exception. Our table was not immediately ready, but the maitre d’ for the dining room made the wait relaxing and enjoyable. We were sitting at the bar, deciding what drinks to order while we waited and she came up and handed each of us a glass of excellent champagne and wished us a happy anniversary.  Then on the way out while we were waiting by the first floor entrance for our Uber I asked the gentlemen working at the podium just inside the door if he knew the track that was playing. He said he did not, but he immediately opened up an app on his phone, held it up towards the speaker and got me the name of the singer. All in all a great evening.

    Great birthday dinner! It was noisy but not so bad that we couldn't hear each other. They were out of several things we wanted, so that was disappointing. Overall the food was very good as was the service.

    Our meals were fabulous and the service was exceptional. Cocktails were delicious and we were presented with a ‘happy birthdays’ dessert on the house. We were seated by the fireplace to celebrate our birthdays in style. Not a thing to change!
