    We stopped in on a Thursday afternoon with a larger group of people they accommodated all of our requests. Nice menu selection with a southern flair. The tuna tacos had a nice kick and the Rachel was super delicious!

    Everything is so wonderfully thought out! Cocktails, Apps, the staff. You just can't go wrong!

    Chicken Empanadas and Poppy Seed Crusted Tuna
    David L.

    Stillwater is a nice location to share after work drinks and appetizers at the edge of the financial district though the bar area is narrow and dark. We enjoyed starters such as the poppy seed crusted tuna ($17) and chicken empanadas ($12). Local oysters were nicely presented in a traditional manner, though on the small side. However, the highlight dishes may have been the sausage and corn chowder, a filling bowl ($9) of sweet hearty soup with a punch of spice, and the Cobb salad ($18). Dessert descriptions sounded great, but the execution was a bit underwhelming. The S'mores donuts ($11) were dense and the peach tarte (a special that night), was all flaky crust with hardly any discernible peach. Our server, Eduardo, did a great job meeting all of our needs.

    Hangover burger with fries
    Lydia L.

    Really solid brunch! We came in right when they opened on a weekday, definitely didn't need the reservation. We started with the Gouda and red pepper biscuits, which were among the best biscuits I've ever had!!! My husband had a bloody Mary, which was solid. He did the hangover burger with fries, and I had the empanadas rancheros. We both loved our meals! The brunch potatoes were particularly well seasoned and delicious. And the service was fast and friendly! We'll definitely come back for dinner sometime.

    Locals and visitors swap insider tips in a chatty and welcoming way under the watchful gaze of kind staff. The vibe is a perfect blend of mellow and energizing.

    We arrived Boston late, our flight had been delayed, so we scrambled to find somewhere to eat. Arriving about 45 minutes before close, we were seated in the back. Our server was super friendly, gave great recommendations, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Located towards Chinatown in the downtown area of Boston, the restaurant was clean, friendly, and has some really good choices.

    Ronald at the bar was spectacular! Great spot near Chinatown. You should check it out...

    Flat Patty Burger

    We came here for brunch on the weekend. I ordered the Flat Patty Burger. The burger patty was juicy and had so much flavor, and the french fries were delicious. This is one of the best meals we had in Boston! I can't recommend this place enough!

    PB&J brulee
    Adam R.

    Chill neighborhood spot. Super relaxed service and super relaxed vibes. And good comfort food I had the corn and sausage chowder rich and creamy with good flavor and came with a biscuit. The biscuit was ok but didn't taste that fresh Then I had the lamb chops. They were good quality, good portions, and while the flavor was certainly good, I wish there was just a little bit to it. I would still get it again though. Finally I had the PB&J creme brulee. This was awesome the brulee was a rich peanut butter and came with peanut brittle and some peanuts on top. There was a little jelly on top too. This was very original and was very tasty. I recommend coming here for a relaxed not frills song experience at good price

    Coffee

    Had a really nice lobster roll here. Best one of the year, and of the best one I've ever had. They really packed it with lobster meat inside, so you get your money's worth, and incredibly fresh and perfect mix, After you sink your teeth into the first bite, you want to keep going. Fries were great, ketchup was a little vinegary (could go for a more basal ketchup) but fantastic overall. Service was friendly, prompt, and it was great sitting outside. It's a relaxing, upscale dining establishment. What's really nice is the coffee cups. Unlike most places with smaller drinking rims, it's great for sipping, looks classier, and love the image of milk clouds forming as you add in the dairy. I've seen a lot of professionally dressed people enter this space and definitely recommend dressing up with a button down for guys or a dress for women.

    Everything Bagel Popcorn
    Mark T.

    For my visit last Friday, it was all about the apps! Or, as they call them, "Sexy Snacks." Stillwater does a solid job elevating comfort food classics by giving them a unique twist, and I was there for it! I had the opportunity to try the following: -Deviled Eggs -Poppy Seed Crusted Tuna -Everything Bagel Popcorn -Empanaditas -Local Apple Crumble (when have you ever known me to skip dessert!) The breakdown you're all here for: Deviled Eggs: Oh, let me tell you, I am totally here for the creaminess! Unfortunately, there is more to a really great deviled egg, and this one felt lacking. The filling was on the bland side, and while I credit them for using smoked paprika, crispy chicken skin, and chives, these needed to go further. They have the making of a good dish, but it needs something more. Empanaditas: These were an all-around, through-and-through win in my book, with no negative critiques! The chicken filling was fresh, tender, and full of flavor. The smoky flavors also do wonders, regardless of how they get in there. Meanwhile, I loved the garnishes of the crema and salsa. The citrus crema was delicious, and the salsa was peppery and spicy, just as I like! I also enjoyed the dough; it also was hot and fresh. Poppy Seed Crusted Tuna: I've had variations of this dish a couple times, but never with poppy seeds! It made for a nice crust; the fish had a perfect salt level and was cooked just right. Though something was gnawing at me, and I think I finally know! The cuts of tuna were too thick. This kind of dish relies on a delicate balance of crust to effectively raw tuna. With pieces of this size, the balance is upset. Regarding garnishes and sauces: The sweet soy is good (you can buy sweet soy sauce; it is excellent!). I loved the chili sauce, though! It was sugared, spicy, and savory! As for the pickled veggies, the brine's lightly saccharine and salty tang was terrific! Only, with fish the size of a foot-ending lego brick, it made balancing veggie and fish consumption trickier. Everything Bagel Popcorn: This was solid popcorn, topped with everything bagel seasoning and served with a bit of butter. The only thing to note is that the seasoning seemed homemade and spicy. Unless you are a massive lover of popcorn and the flavorings, I would pass on this one. Local Apple Crumble: This one was so fresh it was too hot to eat immediately! It had terrific flavors and spices within and wasn't overly sugary. The dollop of gelato on top was both sizeable and of superb quality. It quickly melted into the crumble, though I can't tell if that was by design. My only note is that I would have preferred just a bit more crust up top. The location was clean, and the service was professional and speedy. While I did have some notes, I look forward to returning to Stillwater sooner rather than later and trying the rest of the apps and maybe some mains!

    Fried Chicken and Egg
    Stacey T.

    Nice enough but kind of a strange operation. I was surprised to find reservations the day before for 6 people. The restaurant is quite large, and has an open style kitchen. We were surprised to see there weren't many people there, most brunch spots are pretty packed. Our waiter was nice but must have been new. He didn't seem to know the specials and we had to ask him for them. A few people ordered coffee and one asked for non dairy creamer. He had no idea what we were talking about so they suggested oat, almond etc and he just had a blank stare on his face. On the topic of coffee, when someone wanted a refill, the waiter would take their cup away instead of bringing a pot or carafe to refill. They were very accommodating with substitutions which was nice, but the food was average. The fried chicken is advertised as a chicken thigh, but it was a chicken cutlet. Tater tots were your standard freezer brand. The breakfast potatoes had an unexpected kick to them and were too spicy for one of our guests. The cheese sauce is also generic premade.

It was a Sunday night and we didn't feel like going far for a meal. That's when we put the voucher to use as the Capiz is in the lobby of the hotel. We went for an early dinner. Walking into the restaurant, no one was there to greet us and there was no host stand. Finally, a server (who also turned out to be our server) told us to pick where we wanted to sit. We chose a four-top table. When it was time to order, we were dealing with a limited menu. I chose lobster quesadillas, which were listed under "appetizers". My husband chose the fish and chips. The quesadilla was sloppily made. Some pieces had hardly any cheese or lobster in them. Other pieces were overloaded with lobster and cheese. While it was all edible and the lobster was properly cooked, it still was underwhelming. My husband said the fish was well prepared, flaky and crispy at the same time. There were too many French fries, making the plate a bit messy. In a pinch, Capiz did fit the bill as we didn't feel like going far for a meal that day.

For my breakfast I had the avocado toast with a side of chicken sausage and my girlfriend had the oatmeal. It was a perfect way to start the morning. The avocado toast was delicious and the oatmeal hit the spot. The lounge had tables and a bar area with high top tables which provided plenty of space from other diners. Lastly, the hostess and waiter were excellent in taking care of us while dining.

The pork chop was cooked perfectly, had a good sear/crust was juicy, really my favorite. The chicken was also delicious well, not dry and seasoned well.

But the food is just ok. The 3 of us ordered 2 pastas (one entree size, one app size), and 4 or 5 apps and nothing was impressive. The pappardelle w bolognese was the highlight for me. The lemon ricotta ravioli was borderline cold by the time I cut into it which was really odd. The mozzarella was forgettable, but the pork belly was solid. The scallops that were on special were the itty bitty kind and just ok - mostly overwhelmed by whatever breading they were covered in. The best part was probably the deserts - I had the creamy Nutella something or other - and was really upset when I got to the airport in the morning and realized I left it in the hotel fridge /sad face. Crème brûlée was on point. If nothing else, their pastry chef is 100 on the land/sea/sky.
