1928 Beacon Hill - Crossing

Great spot, great staff, friendly service, and great food (especially the octopus . Will be back! Oh, and offer valet! I spent 20 minutes circling the block! Not your fault but would be amazing :

Everything was amazing. Service was top notch. Food was incredible. Would have loved a few specials but everyone found something that they enjoyed. Back room was a little hot and stuffy (not just our table complaining) but the staff did whatever they could to make it more comfortable. Great wine list! Can t wait to go back.

The food was okay but for the quality too expensive. Lobster bisque was too thick and had no flavor, the fried shrimps were good and the braised short ribs with Demi glace were good but the sauce was more like a gravy and not a Demi glace. The whisky sour was bad because it had not bourbon taste, no foam and the flavor was just very acidic (old lemon juice flavor).

This place is perfect for a cold wintery day. It is dark and cozy and the only thing missing in this antique clad, beautifully decorated restaurant is a working fireplace! I happened to have brunch here on a sunny day-my first time here so I did not know it was so dark inside. We sat by the window though, on comfy armed chairs with a puffy back pillow which was nice. Our waiter was kind and efficient and my avocado toast was good but it could have used more avocado and my sister's omelette was good but I think it could have come with at least one slice of toast. I may return to try a cocktail at their long bar one evening when I am in town next because I noticed the bartender was making a few good lookin' ones! ;

Good ambiance, nice place to have few beers. Very friendly staff.
