It definitely gets hot in the summer so find a spot in the shade, but there's lots of tables and umbrellas too. The only bathrooms are unfortunately portapotties, but they were even pretty clean too. There's a few food trucks too if you get hungry. They have some yards games like giant Kenya and cornhole so it's a fun place for a group of to meet new friends.

It's easier if you go inside and order your drinks at the bar vs. waiting for someone to wait on you outside. We love their beer! The food is decent too. This past weekend, we ordered the chicken wings and the carrots. Both were tasty but not my favorite. Next time I will try something else. We also stop by often to pick up beers from the counter in the back. Service is always fast and friendly. They always offer me a box to carry it home. If you're interested in eating inside, better make a rez cause this place can get very busy!

Came for the check-ins and food…read more This is located in a convenient location by the water, and seems trendy and busy with tables full both upstairs and downstairs (they also have a patio). We walked in and there was no hostess. The bartenders stood around and did not greet us. We had to go ask for service so that we can be seated (why?) and then once we were seated, it took a while for a server to take our order. Once we got our order, we never got our waters refilled and only were checked on to see if we'd want more alcohol. The menu was alright, though a bit basic. Food tasted fine. Presentation was basic and the little cup of fries seems stingy and unnecessary when there's already a tray. The alcohol was fine. I was pleased they had cocktails in a can (they have a distillery with a wide variety of spirits). No ciders though. The beer selection was good although the menu on the wall was not updated. It would've been good if we could just order from the wall but apparently the drafts and to-go menus are not updated. Overall very subpar service and unwelcoming pretentious vibes. Would not return.

My husband and I stopped by Trillium Garden on the Greenway for a beer while exploring Boston, and…read morewe're so glad we did! We luckily caught it right before it closed for the season, and it was the perfect spot to enjoy a beautiful day in the city. The staff were very friendly and even gave us a few tasters of beer so we could find the perfect one -- such a nice touch! The beer was excellent, the vibes were great, and the setting couldn't be better -- right in the heart of Boston with beautiful views of the Boston Harbor Hotel and its large American flag. Such a fun, laid-back atmosphere. We're so glad we got to experience it before the season ended, and we'll definitely be back next time we're in Boston!

I am so sad that Trillium will no longer be on the Greenway. Cheers to many great memories!read more

They have a ton of seating, a bar, and some yard games like cornhole. BONUS: they use compostable plates and silverware which I adore.

After checking out the famed Feneuil Hall and Quincy Market, my husband was ready to go on a sightseeing strike if I wouldn't have gotten him a beer! The Sam Adams tap room was there, but too crowded and popular. We love indie places so we went back to Distraction & Democracy and it was the wisest decision! The space is big, wide, the ladies working the counter are super helpful and friendly, we tried their Amber Ale, it was great, so we ordered a couple of cold ones. Lots of cool seating options, we got some in the shade at a table facing Faneuil Hall. Hard to beat that view! The beer was amazing, the place relaxing, some friendly folks around chilling, taking a break in action like us! They have clean portable toilets with water sinks and soap. Lots of them! Great experience! Enjoyed our well deserved beer break here! Fun and relaxing, cherished a cold one surrounded by the city's history! Cheers!

This? Absolute trainwreck. Drinks? Fine. Views? Gorgeous. But everything else? Trash. Food came out on cafeteria-style trays, glasses were dirty, and our server looked like she wanted to walk off the roof rather than take care of guests. I get that it's Labor Day weekend and nobody wants to work, but wow, that was baddddddd. We slammed our drinks and got out. For a Marriott charging these insane prices, this level of quality is embarrassing.

My friend and I came here for a Thursday night dinner! It does kind of have a more post-work…read moreHH/company dinner feel, but we still enjoyed our time! We ordered the dip trio, the spanakopita, the feta 2.0, the scallops, and the gnocchi moussaka. The feta 2.0 was an absolute hit (got too excited so forgot to take a picture). The feta was soft and creamy, wrapped in fried phyllo, and soaked in honey. So unbelievably delicious. The spanakopita was also a favorite for us--it was served on a bed of tzatziki and was perfectly seasoned. The dip trio was generally delicious, but the butternut squash hummus was a bit underwhelming. The scallops were tasty, but perhaps a bit overcooked. I did really enjoyed our the gnocchi moussaka but it is a bit salty. Service was quick and our server made sure to check in with us multiple times throughout the night. It definitely felt like a more loud and lively environment. A great option in Seaport that I will keep on my list!

Super Bowl weekend in the Seaport has a certain hum to it. Not chaotic. Not frantic. Just alive…read more Committee was vibing. We had a 6:30 reservation on Saturday night, table for four, friends in town for the game the next day. The room was full, the bar glowing in the background, conversations layered over music that felt present but not overpowering. It felt like a place that knows it's a hot spot and moves with that rhythm comfortably. Our table sat toward the front near the windows, clearly in the dining zone. The reservation mattered. We felt placed, not squeezed in. The staff moved like they were ready for the crowd, not reacting to it. We opened with cocktails. I kept it simple, a whiskey ginger. The first one came out wrong. I mentioned it casually, and our waiter handled it exactly how you hope a good restaurant does, no drama, no awkward pause, just "of course" and a fresh one in front of me quickly. Smooth, professional, easy. We started light with the marinated olives. Nothing flashy, just quality Peloponnese olives dressed with orange zest and champagne vinaigrette. The citrus was subtle, more of a soft sweetness than a statement. The vinaigrette coated them nicely without drowning them. Not a must-order, but a quiet signal that the kitchen cares about ingredients. If you love olives, you'll appreciate them. If you skip them, you won't feel like you missed the night. Then came the zucchini crisps, which for me are the cornerstone of any serious Greek restaurant. You can tell a lot from how a kitchen handles something that simple. These passed. They arrived stacked high, golden, crisp enough that you could hear the crunch. Not greasy, not limp, not overly thick. We came hungry, and they didn't last long. What makes or breaks a zucchini chip is the sauce, and here it was the harissa lemon aioli. It gave the dish its defining personality. A little heat, a little brightness, enough depth to keep you going back for another one. We demolished them. That tells you everything. The roasted carrots followed, and they did exactly what a great vegetable dish should do. Honey gave them a gentle sweetness that paired well with the pistachio dukkah. The carrots themselves carried that earthy backbone that holds everything together. Most importantly, they were cooked right. Tender enough to cut easily, but still with a slight bite. No mush. Just clean execution and thoughtful seasoning. By the time the scallops hit the table, the kitchen had earned our trust. They were beautifully done, properly seared with a golden edge and tender inside. The parsnip and pear puree felt inventive but grounded, adding depth without pushing the dish too sweet. The pomegranate kept it bright. Yes, they are expensive. But quality in the Seaport costs what it costs, and these felt worth it. The octopus was the star of the night. I've only recently come around to octopus after having it done well at a few great spots around Boston. When it's right, it hits that perfect middle ground. It has the tenderness of a well-cooked piece of meat, but carries that clean saltwater backbone from the sea. Not fishy. Not delicate like salmon. More like a piece of chicken from the ocean, firm, clean, satisfying. Committee nailed it. There was real char. The kind that seals in flavor and gives you that grilled depth. It had bite without resistance, tender without falling apart. The 'nduja ragu and marble potatoes grounded it without overpowering. It felt composed but not overworked. If you're ordering one dish here, this is the one. And then the lamb. Sometimes you just want a piece of meat done right. No theatrics. No overthinking. These were beautifully done. Full bone-in chops, about twelve ounces each. We ordered four total for the table because we knew everyone would want a piece, and that instinct was correct. You could tear through a whole rack if you let yourself. Juicy, rich, not aggressively gamey, just clean and satisfying. The Greek whipped potatoes were smooth and comforting, the salsa verde sharp and classic, cutting through the richness exactly how it should. At $29, it's not cheap. But when lamb is this good, price stops being part of the conversation. Committee isn't trying to be quiet. It's lively. It's confident. It knows it's a scene. But behind the energy is a kitchen that understands balance, texture, and how to execute Mediterranean staples without overcomplicating them. On a weekend built around a game, this felt like a win.

As a non-beer drinker, all I can say is they have a number of Harpoon beers on tap, as well as a hard cider that I am fond of, and for sustenance, they have a taco truck that I kept seeing people carry away nachos from. The one downside is that it is super LOUD from the performance stage at one end of the seating area. I am begging whoever organizes the performances to turn down the mic just a little. At some point, the live performances switched to a DJ which made the volume a bit more tolerable but my watch was still picking up dangerous decibel levels. We grabbed a table that was the furthest from the stage and I was still hoarse at the end of the night from shouting at my friend across the table. They have some reserved/standing only tables closer to the beer/food at the other end that might be quieter but we came on a Thursday and of course everything was packed. If you're looking to have a semi-quiet conversation, definitely go elsewhere in the park. But this pop up is a good choice if you just want to hang with friends, drink beer, and eat tacos. If you need to use a restroom, pro tip to use the AMC across the street.
