    Angus Beef Burger and fries
    Carol L.

    This restaurant/bar on the roof of the Doubletree Hotel on the Charles River in Boston/Brighton is spectacular. Evening hours only (5:00-11:00). Two friends and I went to dinner on a beautiful July evening and the view of the Charles River, Cambridge and Boston were breathtaking. We started with drinks: sauvignon blanc, cosmo and sparkling wine, delivered promptly. I had an Angus Beef Burger, medium rare, with french fries, cooked exactly to order. Friend 1 had a mixed greens salad with vinaigrette dressing, and Friend 2 had the same but with a crabcake on top. (The crabcake was a different menu option and not one of the advertised add-ons for the salad -- chicken, shrimp and salmon -- but our server didn't blink when she asked for it to be added. Extra points for flexibility!) We were all well satisfied! The tables were spaced such that you had some semblance of privacy. This is a hidden gem and I *will* be returning!

    Said yes to the bread. Had the olive oil served on a plate by itself - superb…read more The flat bread pizza is insane. I would go back just for that - crispy + slicing with scissors adds a whole other feel to it. I feel in control of my flatbread. Calamari was good but I'd choose the flatbread over anything. Can't go wrong with fig, goat cheese, and prosciutto. Emma didn't like the dill on there but I didn't mind. Enjoyed with a nice glass of white wine while we dined outside.

Parking in the area can be a bit tricky, but it's super convenient to get to via the Green Line, which made it easy overall. For food, everything was delicious: The Romaine & Kale Caesar was good, though I wish it had whole anchovies for a little extra punch. The prosciutto bruschetta was incredible, definitely a standout. The crispy cauliflower was my favorite dish of the night, so flavorful and perfectly cooked. The rigatoni bolognese was solid and comforting. The Chianti-Marsala braised beef short rib was insanely tender and cooked perfectly (just wish there were a few more mushrooms!). Also have to mention the dirty martini was so good. Overall, such a great spot with a fun vibe, amazing service, and really tasty food. I'll definitely be back!

    Bar 'Cino - $15 BAKED CLAMS: The most amazing clam sauce that's ever touched my tongue. We had to ask for more bread to eat every last drop.

    Hidden gem in Coolidge Corner alert! Located in the arcade ticked away in the corner, where you see…read morea sign that says "Bar is open. Ring bell " You ring the bell and a pleasant person opens the door, asks how many are in your party and if there is room, you step inside to find an intimate room with several seating nooks, a lovely bar and an atmosphere where you can actually have a conversation. I think there were 20 seats in the whole space. We ordered 4 drinks and a chips and dip. For $82 we had a lovely experience. You can also rent this place out for a private party. Truly a great vibe, delicious drinks and a positive experience!

They do both reservations and walk-ins but it's safer to make a reservation ahead if you can. It's pretty easy to make one as well; we only booked a day ahead for a Friday night. Amazing first impressions as well. They make a tiny space work perfectly; I did not feel claustrophobic at all even with full house. They have really cute decors and the space is decorated well. They have their seasonal cocktails that you can choose your choice of liquor for and martinis (both vodka and gin). They brew their espresso fresh as well so the space smells so good every time it is brewed. I got a Peru Plunder and it was fruity and light (a dangerous one). Their apple pie old fashioned has an interesting aftertaste in a good way. The bartender and the server were attentive and friendly as well. I had a great time and will definitely be coming back. -9.1/10
