                                      Estella shines as a vibrant pre- and post-theater spot with "amazing food" and "attentive staff." Highlights include the "oxtail Rasta pasta" and "some of the best drinks in Boston." While the atmosphere is lively, it can be "a bit loud." Perfect for those seeking energetic vibes and delicious eats.

                                        Waitress was inattentive, unmotivated, and didn’t seem interested in her job. She spent more time chewing gum, putting on lip gloss, and chatting then serving. Drinks were great but far too pricey for the environment. Also, they could not figure out the vibe they were going for with music / lights.

                                        I made the reservation for the wrong amount of people and they last minute accommodated for the amount we needed. Stephanie is the best! Amazing food and service

                                        Food and drinks are good, servers and managers are not very aware of allergies so use caution if there are dietary restrictions.

                                        We had two amazing servers who provided excellent recommendations but also were very attentive. The food was amazing i had gotten the Rasta pasta with oxtail and salmon. The drinks were also good.

                                        Wonderful server but very slow service. I think they were understaffed that night.
