The view of Boston is absolutely beautiful and makes this establishment worth visiting. The food is good, but I wouldn't consider it the best, especially for the price of the dishes. You are primarily paying for the view and atmosphere.

It is a must do on buck list in Boston. Having said that it's about location only. The view is out of this world. Our children bought us a gift certificate for Christmas. After reading reviews, looking forward to the drinks and dessert. Those even disappointed. Service was cold, artificial and lacked attention. Food was poor, if you have food restrictions, to average. Our dishes were cold after being delivered to an empty table while we took a moment to take in the view. Drinks were below average. Irish coffee was even cold. We throw in the towel at this point and skipped dessert. Been there, done that, will not be returning. reservations are recommended.

I was surprised

Given that they've got the view I expected the food to be really sub-par, and the drinks overpriced. It is pricey, but man that was one of the best -- and biggest -- dirty vodka martinis I've ever had. And the apps we got were really good. Mussels in white wine sauce with delicious warm bread for dipping. Go in the afternoon when it's easier to score a window-side table, and then it's worth it.

I have been enjoying the views from this restaurant for over a decade. I love going to this place for a drink at night time right next to the gigantic windows enjoying the view of the city. Their food is great and the service. I give this place 4 stars

On time and on budget

We went there for lunch with some people from work and the prices were decent and the food was delicious. We would definitly go back for lunch. Haven't been there for the dinner menu/prices so I can't comment on that.

All in all bad table / seating, rude staff and so / so food.

I made the reservations one month in advance; I wanted a window seat for my girl friends birthday. I made that very clear using an online reservation service, in writing. Upon arrival I was informed that the wait for my table would be a minimum of one hour. I took a table in a back room. Waiter was rude, and very cooperative. I asked for a salad and he told me, "you don't want that one, it's no good". When I did place my order he judge me and the service dropped even worse. I was driving and didn?t want to drink, he took that as a lesser amount spent so a lesser tip. The food was delivered to the wrong table next to us where it sat for 5 full minutes. Then the waiter simply picked it up and moved it over to our table. I hadn?t noticed this or I would have refused it. My girl friend did but didn't want to get me upset. The food's quality was less than stellar, I'm used to less than great food in restaurants like these but this was the worst. Even the revolving restaurant in Phoenix had better food, not by much but close. If I were to give this a 1 to 10, it would be a 2
