    Fantastic food, impeccable service, and well worth the visit! What a fantastic experience at Saltie Girl! We started with the oysters, followed by the warm lobster roll for my main course, and both were absolutely delicious. The quality of the food was exceptional, and the service was equally impeccable. A word of caution though… make a reservation! This place is incredibly popular, with queues literally stretching out the door. Without a reservation, you could find yourself waiting quite some time. Thankfully, we booked through OpenTable and were seated almost immediately. And whatever you do, save a little room for dessert! The chocolate chip cookie is an absolute must and the perfect way to finish an already fantastic meal. Great food, excellent service, and clearly a restaurant that deserves its popularity. We’ll definitely be back!

    I’m an old acquaintance of Ken’s, and have been waiting to make it up to Boston for a very long time. His restaurants didn’t disappoint! Wasn’t able to make our res at Little Donkey, but we’ll make it when we’re back in Jan. Vervein café with chef Monica and Faccia a Faccia are pristine well oiled machines putting out art on every plate. From the tuna tartar and carpaccio to the bolognese, hanger and tiramisu, this place competes on a whole other level! We sat at the bar, had excellent cocktails and service by Gerardo, a true professional. We have been in the service industry for over 30 years, and we’re still talking about this dinner a week later! Bravo Ken and team! We can’t wait to come back and get to Toro and the other spots.

    I had a wonderful dining experience at Terra. The atmosphere was beautiful, the setting was elegant, and the food was delicious. The service made the evening even more enjoyable. It’s a great place for a special occasion or a romantic dinner. I would definitely recommend it and look forward to coming back!
