what a great place for drinks and good food. Drinks were so good and the food complimented well with them. I appreciate the server who was very accommodating to our friend that's a picky eater. The vibes were really good and def a low light place to have drinks food and great conversations. read more

This place is cute. It's well located in the heart of beacon hill. I went twice. First time I didn't have a reservation and felt overlooked. It felt like I was in the wrong place with the wrong people. Maybe the way I was dressed. I came back for a date night and it was a different situation. I had some good food but I felt like the place was small and packed. Mixed feelings here. read more

Cute place in Beacon Hill. Welcoming staff and fun atmosphere. I had the Lobster Pasta which was perfectly cooked and had lots of flavor, fresh ingredients and a very generous portion of lobster meat. I would highly recommend trying 75 Chestnut! read more

Good quality food. Good service. Worked well with food allergies, and were not limited to plain chicken and vegetables like at so many places. Not a trendy place to see and be seen, but good food read more

I am just curious that after an incident on Mother's Day in 2025, when a live rat was hanging from the booth seat during the peak dinner time, 5-6 PM, this place is still operating. Did they clear the rat problems? read more

Really wanted to like this spot. It's a cute little bistro in Beacon Hill, and the menu looked like it had a decent amount of variety. However, the food seemed a little bland. Our table had one standout - a pork chop special that was very tasty and unique - but the rest of the food was kinda just okay. Place was busy, so be ready to wait (or get a reservation ahead of time). For the price, I was expecting the food to "wow" me - it didnt. read more

Preface that our order was takeout and walked about 5 minutes from the restaurant to our apartment, so may be a different experience if eating in the restaurant itself... We got the Caesar salad, clam chowder, and the rhubarb cobbler. Overall, nothing impressive, especially for more than $50. The cessar unfortunately didn't come with enough dressing for the amount of lettuce in the container. The clam chowder was okay! Nothing to write home about, and honestly I've gotten better chowder at some other bars/restaurants in the area. The saddest part of the meal was the rhubarb cobbler. I was underwhelmed with the lack of flavor, and definitely wouldn't recommend getting it to go. I'm sure it wouldn't been better fresh and hot right in the restaurant. The restaurant itself was charming and the wait staff seemed nice and attentive! Maybe the rest of the menu is fabulous, especially dining in‍ read more

We stopped in for brunch and were happy with our meal. Service was prompt and professional while the food tasted great. My spouse got the Weekend Breakfast, which was about average for a regular breakfast plate. I got the Steak & Avocado Bowl which was more like a steak salad but absolutely delicious. All the flavors came together quite well, and I actually enjoyed a salad for once. read more

Small cute lil restaurant we made a reservation but definitely didn't need one on a Thursday night the restaurant wasn't empty but had plenty of tables. Service was great didn't really need to wait for anything. We started with the clam chowder and it was great had lots of flavor but wished it was a little bit thicker. We had that with bread and it was very good bread. My quinoa salad was good with lots of flavors great if you're vegetarian. And my partner said his sandwich was very good but the fry's lacked some flavor. We had the option to have their dine out Boston menu but we were seeing a show after and didn't have time for a 3 course meal. Overall it was very good and we will definitely be returning. read more

Came here after a show in the opera house theatre and I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich with fries. The burger was very unique with sliced pears inside which was delicious!

Glad our friends recommended 75 Chestnut for a birthday celebration brunch. We found the restaurant to be cozy with friendly and efficient service. Cocktails were quite good, and I would recommend the fig martini. Steak tips, as well as the fish and chips were also very good. A very nice touch, and completely unexpected, they brought out a delicious chocolate lava cake with a candle for dessert. We would definitely return here to try more of the menu read more

My Fiancè and I made a reservation to eat here after our engagement photos and it was the most perfect way to end our day!! We were immediately struck by how whimsical it looked in the evening. It is a quaint little restaurant tucked into a charming brownstone and although small and a bit cramped for space, it was still easy enough to walk through. When we walked in, the place was packed so we had to wait a little bit for a hostess to come greet us but we were undeterred as plates of food passed by us that not only looked incredible but smelt tantalizing. Once we were seated, we were very well taken care of with quick drinks and a basket of warm bread. We ordered clam chowder, the burrata salad, and some polenta fries, each of which outdid our expectations. The clam chowder alone was the best I've had in Boston, which is saying something from someone who has lived here for the majority of my life. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and will absolutely be going back. read more

Food: Crab Cakes ($24) - solid quality, nice that there were not any shell bits in there, roasted red pepper coulis and chipotle aioli sauce on the side was a nice combo of savory and spicy to complement the crab cakes, cucumber salad on the side was a refreshing way to complement the crab cakes as well Stuffed French Toast with raspberry preserves ($20)- pretty good, good amount of tasty raspberry preserves in there along with the mascarpone cheese, toast could've been a bit fluffier though, bacon on the side was normal but a bit too crispy for me Atmosphere: Classic American restaurant vibes with a bar area and decent amount of other table seating, pretty nice space Service: Okay service speed, pretty friendly waiter, no wait for a weekend brunch Overall: Pretty good American brunch spot, slightly on the pricier side but not bad read more

I feel like this place maybe used to be really great? And then it's since declined, because service and food were not what I was expecting! My friends and I were rushed through our meal, which was disappointing because we were trying to get use this time to catch up. I got a pasta dish and cocktail for $60, which seems a little steep considering I didn't even have meat. The pasta was good, the cocktail was medium. This may be a better option for brunch when food expectations aren't as high. read more

Food was amazing. Same with drinks. But the hostess was very annoyed when we called to let her know we would be 10-15 min late due to horrific rainstorms in. Boston. And upon arrival we were told we wouldn't have time for dessert since there was a table booked after us. We had a pretty quick meal and left without dessert. Our server was amazing. It was the hostess who set the disconcerting tone and that's a shame. Prices are pretty high and while I get it, at less expensive places they would not have been so off putting. read more

Cute brunch spot! Went with a friend on Sunday and we got a lovely table by the window. It was a sunny day, and the service was friendly, thoughtful, and fast. I would recommend making a reservation. Specify that you may not be comfortable with a high-top table, if that is not your preferred seating arrangement. We had a great time! read more

I have been going to this restaurant for 10 years. I always love the ambiance, food and service!

Cozy, intimate, great drinks and food. Good music (60s soul) at an adequate volume. Will return many times. Upscale but not pretentious.

The Thanksgiving serving was meager and lacking in taste. Think a turkey dinner at your high school cafeteria. There were about 2 tablespoons of meh mashed potatoes. The service was slow and unresponsive. The gratuity was built-in which might encourage lazy service. First and last time that I eat Thanksgiving somewhere other than my house. read more

Love this place! If you have never been, go! Whenever I'm in Boston, wow is this a favorite! Gorgeous flowers if you sit outside, and the food quality is always outstanding. Loved: Polenta fries Flatbread - loaded with fun flavors like pea purée and prosciutto Seafood stew - beautiful flavors and delicate seafood Cod - melt in your mouth Chocolate lava cake - no molten oozing filling unfortunately, but was super yummy read more

On my latest trip to Boston we decided to eat here for breakfast one weekend morning. We initially had lunch reservations but last minute wanted to change it to breakfast when they first opened. The lady at the front who handled this over the phone was very friendly and professional. She let me know if any no shows didn't make it or they had spaces they would confirm that we could come in for breakfast. Well she called back and everything worked out fine. The breakfast menu here is extensive. We all had great service and enjoyed the early morning cocktails. The Fig Manhattan was so good! My steak and eggs was cooked to my liking and filling. Others in my party had the clam chowder and classic 75 omelet. Everyone enjoyed their food and cocktails. We were seating right near the window and could see outside on Chestnut. Beautiful restaurant. Will definitely be back on my next visit to Boston. read more

A nice place to treat yourself in Beacon Hill! Came with a group of 6 on a Tuesday night. Menu wasn't overwhelming yet I still found myself struggling to choose as everything looked really good. The dinner menu is more seafood forward, which is nice. - Mediterranean platter - wonderful platter of hummus, artichoke, olives, feta (my favorite part), and some other veggies. However, there are only 5 large pita chips so the ratio of chip to dip/toppings was off and it wasn't the most optimal for sharing. - Lobster gnocchi - delicious! Big chunks of lobster meat with pumpkin, spinach, and plain gnocchi. A decadent layer of oil at the bottom. - Service - pretty good. I quite enjoyed the wine recommendation from our waitress. They were sure to bring out the appetizer sooner than the entrees and all the entrees came out at the same time. Felt that the entrees took a while though. - Ambience - very cozy and tucked away. Almost feels secret and mysterious as the name of the restaurant is literally just its address. Charming architecture and appropriately and tastefully decorated with gourds, pumpkins, and other fall decor for the season. read more

One of Bostons hidden gems! Located just off of the Boston Commons, 75 Chestnut is a go-to! Easy to walk from the Charles River Esplanade, or take the T and walk over. Parking my be difficult, as it is located in a smaller back street in a busy area - but trust me, it's worth it! We made a reservation for Sunday brunch the morning of. Quick sit-down time. I love a good Sunday brunch and they did not disappoint! Went for a classic American Breakfast with eggs and an English muffin, delicious! Chicken and waffles would probably be my go-to next time. The brunch menu had both breakfast and lunch with a variety of drinks. A pet-peeve of mine is when restaurants don't serve espresso - but 75 Chestnut had a great cappuccino. The decor was fall-themed. It's a quaint, local spot that I would highly recommend for anyone coming to visit Boston. Service is fast, reservations are easy to make. Love it! read more

So happy to have found this restaurant while staying in Beacon Hill. It's located on a cute residential street. This is the only restaurant on this block. It's a quiet location with very little street traffic. We chose to sit outside on a beautiful night. The staff is so friendly. We had a child with us and asked for his food first. They were wonderful to accommodate us. The menu is so expansive with wonderful seasonal offerings. It was hard to decide on what to order but we kept it basic. I had an Aperol to start and it was so refreshing. I ordered the Meyer lemon chicken and hubs had the beef tenderloin au poivre. My husband is a butcher and very picky about his meat. He said this was one of the best cuts he's had at a restaurant. This man devoured his meal! My Meyer lemon chicken was just divine. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the flavors incredible. It came with baby potatoes and string beans that were just cooked and salted perfectly. Pricing in my opinion was very reasonable. Not expensive at all. I'd love to come back and try some other things on their menu! read more

A quaint spot to grab a casual bite in Beacon Hill. Love that it's a little off the beaten path for a quieter dining experience. Sit outside if you can! My sister and I swung by for dinner on a Saturday, and managed to snag a table outside. For drinks I went with the Beachy Strawberry Bourbon Smash, which is composed of Woodinville bourbon, lemon juice, simple syrup, REAL strawberry puree, mint, and soda water. Yum! Of course I ordered a second. We wanted something more substantial than a salad for dinner, so we both went with the Flatbread Pizza ($22.9). We were able to adjust the toppings to make it plant-based--thank you for being flexible! The flatbread comes with arugula pesto, prosciutto, grilled peaches, caramelized onions, Vermont goat cheese and balsamic reduction, so we nixed the prosciutto and cheese, then added fresh arugula to the top. I enjoyed it enough, although the crust could have been a little more tender, and the peaches a tad sweeter. Service was decent and overall this was a very pleasant dining experience. I'd come back for a cocktail, and perhaps a salad for a lighter meal. read more

I dined at 75 Chestnut in Boston with 3 of my coworkers. We were in town for a business trip. 75 Chestnut not only had curb appeal but the interior looked really cozy and inviting when we visited this restaurant in January 2019. Right away, we were seated near the bar at the table next to the front windows. We each placed orders for our drinks. I can't remember what I initially wanted to order because, that evening, they had run out of that item. Instead, I settled for their Herb-Crusted Atlantic Cod. To my surprise, this became my favorite meal in Boston! It was amazing! The cod was tender and moist, the veggies were sweet with freshness, and the herb crust rounded out the entire dish. We had a great dining experience that night and the staff was great! I wouldn't mind coming back on my next visit to Boston. read more

Great little brunch spot. Quiet and out of the way in a sweet little neighborhood. Kind of congested and limited parking. Staff was very nice and not pretentious. We had three in our party. We all enjoyed our food. Crabcakes could have been crispier. But they were tasty. My husband enjoyed his steak bowl with a generous portion of steak. Polenta fries were crispy and delicious. Would recommend this place for sure. read more
