Warm New England Lobster Roll
Ed D.

I made a reservation for Monday night dinner for 11 people to take out my team. The reservation was ready and we were able to sit down as soon as we got there. It's a typical bar restaurant setting. Service was really good and attentive. The food was really good. We got brussels sprouts, corn and crab hush puppies, and chips with street corn dip and all were delicious. I got the warm lobster roll at market price which wasn't bad at $39. It was a very good lobster roll and fries. It filled me up. I didn't drink, but the rest of my team did and they liked the variety selection of beers, mixmixed cocktails, and wine. The bill was around $600 total for the 11 of us which was expected with respect to the area and the quality food and drinks we got.

Crab Cake Plate Charred Brussel Sprouts Margherita

A group of 6 of us were trying to secure a dinner spot and luckily City Tap House had some availabilities! We had a 7 pm reservation and were promptly seated once we arrived. We were waiting for the rest of our party and our host got us started with some drinks while patiently waiting for everyone. I asked for a drink recommendation and ended up with the ginger cucumber margarhita and loved it! For food, we ordered Brussels sprouts, hummus, and elote corn for the table and I got the crab cake plate for myself. Restrooms were also clean! Overall had a very enjoyable time and would come back with a group.

undercooked tasteless pizza
Steve F.

Pizza was terrible and undercooked, fish and chips were greasey fries and a piece of fish the size of my palm. The waiter struggled to make eye contact and wore a dirty, stained, sweatshirt. Wouldn't come back here if I had a coupon. I gave it two stars because one of the two beers was cold.

Guinness-Braised Beef Dip
Kristen A.

The Guinness braised beef sandwich was great! We also enjoyed the Nashville Cauliflower and Burger. I liked the cozy atmosphere, clean restrooms and many beers on tap! Very close to the convention center.

Pork Nachos

Spur of the moment hunt for an espresso martini and lunch. Honestly not bad! Location is a bit removed from the business of Seaport, so probably doesn't get as much traffic as other restaurants in the area. As far as the espresso martini goes- If I was given it without having been told it was hazelnut infused, I wouldn't be able to tell. It just tastes like a regular espresso martini, but it's decent! A bit too sweet, not super strong. And at a fair price point for seaport. I've also never been to a place that offers it on the rocks vs straight up, interesting option. The Pork Nachos were a solid choice, not too big of a portion but enough for two. The chips didn't become soaked immediately, but our main critique was that toppings weren't distributed throughout, and that there wasn't a ton of pork. The feta topping was generous though, would get these again.

Black angus burger.

Yesterday was a most beautiful fall day to sit outside and have a late lunch at City Tap before a show. My husband ordered two local beers and the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and enjoyed them both. I had honestly the best burger I've ever had. Requested medium, and it was cooked to juicy perfection. It doesn't come with a tomato, I had to ask. So delicious. We shared dessert and got the chocolate ganache tart with raspberry. Again, one of the best things I've ever had the pleasure of eating. So rich and chocolatey. Simon was our waiter and he was super nice and just the right amount of attentive. Everything about our meal was just fantastic.

So many really delicious places in Boston, this would not be on my list. We came for the weekend to check this place out before the game... the soda was a little flat, and the chicken wings were just okay. The highlight was pretzel sticks that you cannot go wrong with. It was clean, and the service was good when our server eventually came, but I would try somewhere else. Reminds me more of like an Outback (but I think Outback wings are better).

The taps. And Bruins and Sox on the tele.
Jeff S.

City Tap is everything you need. Massive tap list and really good food. I had the curried chicken bowl which was fabulous. The taps are obscure local/regional brewed only found here. Place was packed when I was there during Bruin playoff hockey but got a seat at the bar and bartenders were rocking but attentive. Ambience feels like a cool upscale sportsy bar with a really nice upscale bar menu. Definitely a cool place to hang if you're a beer lover.

Logan Square

Came here on a Thursday night for dinner. It was pretty crowded but also around happy hour so it makes sense. We were able to be seated pretty quickly so it worked out okay. The food was delicious. The highlight of dinner was definitely the Nashville cauliflower. The pizza was also delicious. A total hit overall!!

Is the brunch available on the weekday?

I am nearly 100% sure they only host brunch on the weekends.

Pretty eclectic mix. I've heard anything from throwback hip hop to top pop. Shift manager's choice?

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!

On our bartender's suggestion, we ordered the Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza and it absolutely delivered. The crust was perfectly balanced -- crisp and firm on the outside while remaining soft and airy in the center, exactly how great pizza should be served. The sauce had excellent flavor, and the combination of pepperoni and hot honey created the perfect balance of savory, sweet, and heat without overpowering the pie itself. My wife sampled a flight of four locally available beers and really enjoyed the opportunity to try selections that are difficult to find outside the Boston area. I jokingly told her not to become too attached to them since we wouldn't be bringing them home with us. The atmosphere inside the Tap Room was lively, modern, and unmistakably Boston, with plenty of Samuel Adams history woven throughout the space without feeling overly commercialized. We had a fantastic experience here and would absolutely recommend stopping by if you find yourself in the greater Boston

We ordered the Turkey Sandwich and Reuben. There are way better places to stop for drinks and food.

Staff were extremely friendly, but just a weird experience (for North End IN Boston). People walking around in sunglasses, loud poppers being shot with confetti in the air, lots of yelling- just a loud, rambunctious scene. Food on the menu wasn't bad (although they were out of certain items); I tried the chicken sliders, the chicken tacos (with mango and pineapple), and the champagne strawberry pop-tarts. Fun (and wide) selection of food; and lots of cocktails (all for show- little alcohol but all had a "fun" presentation). Not my vibe so would not return- but if you're looking for a Miami club vibe, this restaurant is for you. Maybe drink before you get there, if you actually want to feel the alcohol.

I went to Bricco with some friends during a short trip to Boston. We were seated upstairs and we…read morestarted our meal with cocktails. I ordered the Espresso Martini, which I learned the restaurant is famous for and after tasting it I understand while. I want to put the disclaimer that I am allergic to nuts, so I didn't have it how the restaurant traditionally prepares it (using Amaretto) but it still tasted excellent. The Espresso Martini was perfectly balanced between bitter and sweet and the had the perfect amount of foam on top. For my meal I got the Shrimp pasta with Zucchini. The shrimp was tender and the noodles were cooked to a perfect al dente. The zucchini added a nice contrast to the rich tomato sauce and helped make the dish feel light even though it was a bowl of pasta. My only complaint that the restaurant is very dim especially upstairs. Some people at our table joked that they might need to use their phone flashlight to read the menu, so if you are someone who struggles to see in dimly lit places keep that in mind.

I ordered the Farfalle Tartufate (lobster pasta with truffle) and Bricco's brodetto (variety of seafood) as they were recommended online. However they fell below my expectations. The lobster was overcooked so it was on the rubbery size. The pasta was undercooked and hard. The pasta portion size was tiny like an appetizer for the cost of $34 for 5-6 pieces of pasta. The swordfish in the brodetto was pretty hard and I found some sand in my clams. The salmon was also very expensive for the small portion size. For appetizers I did like how they wrapped the lemon in a net so the seeds wouldn't fall out. The mashed potatoes were also nice and creamy. The zucchini flowers were good but pretty expensive for just 2.
