sangria and run rummer
Lydia S.

Excellent food and drink, charming atmosphere and kind staff. Everything came out very quickly and our bartender Brian was able to answer all our questions. I think the bar is great for a first date as the dining areas are a bit noisy for me. We stopped by before heading to a show at the nearby Arlington Friends Theater. I don't think you can go wrong with this menu! My guest and I shared dinner tapas-style and got bread service (not complementary), the artichokes and zucchini blossoms appetizers. I sipped a perfect red sangria, he had the Run Rummer and a mojito that he was blown away by. We were very satisfied and found everything reasonably priced for the quality. This place definitely lives up to its name for European dining.

Ended up at Scutra this weekend, as it was close to an event we went to. The service, drinks, and restaurant in general was incredible. That said, the food was absolutely next level. I went with a party of 4, and was able to try everyone's appetizers, entrees, and desserts and ever single one was unreal. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

We had such a great dinner on a Friday night at Scutra! The service was incredible, our server told us about the restaurant and how its family owned, has a changing menu for seasonality and about their outdoor patio for when it gets nice out. The drinks were great (Festivus Marg and Amaretto Sour) and the food was even better! We ordered the Poke Nachos for an appetizer and the presentation was so beautiful. Our entrees were huge and delicious. The Homemade Rigatoni Bolognese had such a tasty sauce and perfect texture pasta. The Duo of Filet Wrapped in Bacon was cooked to perfection. We can't wait to come back and try more!

Came here to have dinner with family, had a lovely time. We each ordered an entree and shared two desserts. Everything was very delicious. The short ribs were so soft and tender. Definitely recommend them! We were all soo full after. We got bread for the table which was great as well. Everyone was very kind and helpful. Had a great time, thanks!

The bar

Scutra's menu is great, and the food is amazing, but the people are what make it one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. Everyone that works at Scutre wants you to have the best dining experience you've ever had. We've been there a few times now, and the food is always fantastic. We've make sure to sit at the bar, because Louie, the bartender, treats us like family.... No, not like family, because I know my family. He treats us like the most important people he's ever met. I never leave Yelp reviews, but I felt like I had to, because everything about this place is so incredible.

Excellent. Every time. Do try the dirty martini and the beef Wellington or the hanger steak. Also the grilled cheesecake or the tuxedo cake!

Scutra overdoes heavy sauces and salt. It is not the healthy , light fare that makes a memorable meal. I won't be going back.

I have a shellfish allergy, how do they deal with it?

It shouldn't be a problem. Maybe call ahead and speak with the chef, Didier and ask if he can accommodate.

GREAT FOOD! A mix of American/UK Pub and Mediterranean dishes. Everything I've tried is delcious…read more Some dishes have smaller serving sizes than I'd expect, and others have way more than I would have expected. It's pretty small, which lends to a warm and noisy ambiance which is nice to feel a little cozier and livelier in the winter months. If it's busy time and there's no outdoor seating I'd say go for a reservation if you want to go for dinner. I have tried their late night menu but to be honest I was imbibed and my enhoyment may have been stilted because I was quite hungry! My friend got their like short-term speciality cocktail of a garlic bread martini, and it was actually good?!? I was expecting it to be repulsive but they even did that well. Staff is really sweet, met the man who either owns it or manages it and chatted with him for a while and he was really kind. All are excellent even when they are busy.

I so wanted to love the Tavern…read more Its a pub disguised as a restaurant. Though it does say Tavern in its name. First give away its not a restaurant -- they have no coffee or tea? None? Even a good pub has good tea. Next the noise level was about that of Park Square station at rush hour. You had to yell to be heard, and I am not deaf. Service was decent but certainly not great. Most of us had the baked cod with lentil and fennel. You received about 2 ounces of lentils and a bit of over cooked and tasteless fennel. The fish was decent though would have been better with a solid crumb topping. Pricing is aggressive even for Brookline. I would certainly come back for a beer with friends. I would not recommend sitting down for dinner.

Cozy spot for sports and local vibes. Food exceeded expectations - burger was pretty good and cajun…read morefries were fresh, solid bloody mary, and service was attentive and friendly. Place was full of regulars, families, couples, friends. Tvs everywhere, even in the bathrooms. Prices pretty reasonable for this area. Fun spot to have a meal and see a Premier League game, would return!

I wanted to find a sports bar that I could watch the Pacers game AND have above average bar food…read more Parlor Sports hits it out of the park ! It's unpretentious and welcomes all. It is ok the smaller side, so I would arrive slightly early if you would like good viewing of a specific game; however, there is TVs throughout the small-ish space. I ordered the cheese curds to munch on, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that they were some of the best cheese curds I've had. The breading wasn't thick like most, just an ultra thin layer. Added fresh jalapeños. And for dipping it was a ranch-styled sauce. So SO good ! I had a local, canned beer to drink. Service was good and it gave off a local/community vibe since the bartenders seemed to know who the regulars are. I will definitely be back! I typically don't drink cocktails at this sort of establishment, but the White Russian 2.0 has perked my interest. If the food is that great and it's only $13 for a cocktail... I'll be back to give it a try.

Food: Delicious. Good burger and sandwich. No wait on food. Fresh and hot…read more Service: Bartender and server. Very nice and attentive even though he had a full bar. Ambiance: Cozy and fun.

Imma keep it all the way 100 and just say that pubs like this one, usually make me uneasy. IYKYK…read more This spot looked exactly like you'd expect an Irish pub to look like: old wooden seats, dim lights, a little worn down, with lights strung up inside. But it was super clean and had a genuine, chill vibe. To my surprise, every single person there -- from the staff to the patrons -- was incredibly friendly and warm. It caught me off guard how kind and attentive everyone was. The service was EXCELLENT , and I'd easily give five stars for both cleanliness and hospitality. As for the food, it was okay. I ordered the calamari, and it was decent. I should have tried the spice bag because the folks seated next to us ordered it and it smelled delicious! The espresso martini was absolutely bomb, and everything coming out of that kitchen looked and smelled great. The service and atmosphere made the experience memorable. I could definitely see myself going back for a couple of drinks or to catch a game -- especially because it felt good to be treated with such genuine warmth in a space where I didn't necessarily expect it. I think our server was Samson, maybe, and someone else served us, I didn't get his name- but thanks for your hospitality.
