    The Fountain Room was everything we could have imagined and more for our son’s 19th birthday! We had such a wonderful experience, and a special thank-you to our server, Jordan Clemons, for making the evening extra special. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the food, appetizers, and drinks, and his recommendations were spot on! And OMG, the Pink Mermaid was absolutely amazing! Thank you to The Fountain Room and Jordan for helping us make such a special birthday memory. We truly appreciate the wonderful service and will definitely be back soon! ❤️

    A cool November evening and a warm environment of people and great food was what we needed. Reservations were easy via the OpenTable app and it's always good to be welcomed with a reservation. Livery food was top level; yuca fries, cauliflower with spices, the margaritas were thick with tequila and a generous heavy glass. Main dishes of the short rib (shredded) was delicious and the taco salad was plentiful. A highly recommended restaurant on College Avenue near the Mass. Ave five points intersection. Best to walk or Uber...but valet is available.
