Ordered takeout from here and it was decent. I wouldn't say there was anything astounding, but I had a solid meal that was pretty filling. I ordered the Flat Patty Burger and it comes with fries: Flat Patty Burger ($19) - This burger comes with 2 patties and a side of fries. In today's market, $19 for that isn't too bad, and the burger was THICK. The two patties had butter and herb flavor, but probably could have done with a touch more salt. Still, each bit was satisfyingly meaty and full. It also came with melted cheddar, lettuce, tomato, onion, and a cajun aioli which was pretty tasty. There were a few pickles on the side which was a nice addition as well. All in all, a filling and tasty burger that hits the spot when you want something meaty and carb-loaded. I've had better burgers but I've also had worse ones. This comes in at "above average" for the herbs and butter on the meat as well as the amount of food you get for the price. Not a bad meal!
Came in to see that this place was basically empty and honestly was scared of how the food was going to be...BUT THEN!! The food is delicious here and staff is very friendly. The sauce/gravy in the marry me chicken is absolutely yum and then the fried chicken is sooo good, with a very unique slaw and jelly that goes perfectly well with it. While I didn't get much this time around, I definitely will another time. Tons of seats here so bring a whole group because I'm sure everyone will enjoy this place.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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!
Overall solid experience at Stillwater, nothing that came out disappointed. If you're looking for some comforting and classic American food near seaport & chinatown, look no further. Got the Brussels sprouts, biscuits, empanadas, and more to start and all were delicious. I got the pappardelle and finished it all. My friends got the pulled pork Mac n cheese, the burger, and salads and they are all good. Also loved their cocktails! Got their version of a hot toddy and the thank you next and both were great! follow me on ig @ sophiaeaaats for more recs! read more

Overall, I loved the ambiance and food. The Hangover Burger and Kobb Salad were delicious. The only complaint I had was the service. The waiter wasn't rude, but the service was mediocre. My table was never asked, "How was the food tonight?" nor did the waiter acknowledge us when exiting the restaurant despite not being too busy. The only staff member who did acknowledge us and bid usmm farewell was the bartender, whom we had no prior interaction with. However, if you enjoy good food and a nice atmosphere, I would recommend checking this place out. read more

Came here for our last meal in Boston and ordered a few things: Biscuits & Butter Roasted Brussels Sprouts House salad Kingston Salad The biscuits are delicious especially with the butter (we ordered them without the chicken drippings). Ask the waiter to make sure the biscuits are WARM. Roasted Brussels sprouts could have been skipped. It was a bit soggy, and aside from the goat cheese, the taste wasn't there. Salads were both very fresh and delicious. A nice light refreshing meal after a week of eating fried fat laden foods! Overall I would come back to try the burgers, fried chicken and the other salads! read more

After works drinks and dinner. Close to South Station and downtown crossing. Kingston Street entrance is decked with Christmas trees, ceiling ornaments and lighting. Hostess were pleasant and sat us right away where we preferred away from the bar. The modern style sofas make for a comfortable dinner. Drink and appetizer menu is sassy and fresh. Second night I had a "take your pants off" drink. Here at Stillwater it's called " ADIOS PANTOLONES" I also enjoyed a wine spritzer with orange peel. Sweet! The creamy deviled eggs with crispy chicken skin was fine, it was missing something.....garlic? paprika? something. Our entrees were very good. A bit on the salty side but not unbearable. Ritz cracker fried chicken thighs, mussels and gluten free gnocchi, all delish. Been there done that and enjoyed. read more
My friends and I went to Stillwater over the weekend. Overall a great meal,'like always. 4.8/5 stars Service 4/5 The service was pretty good. We had a nice waiter, food/drinks came out in good time. My one complaint would be the waiter didn't come back for a while for us to order a second round of drinks. We probably would've had 3 rounds of drinks had they been a bit more on top of things. Not that big of a deal though. Drinks 5/5 Everyone loved the drinks they got. The espresso martini is definitely a must. Delicious. I'd recommend any of the drinks tbh. Food 5/5 Everyone loved all the food. We all picked at a few appetizers. The burrata was amazing, popcorn was a cool little snack, and the pork rinds are a MUST! For entrees, I personally got the Mac and cheese. One of the best Mac and cheeses I've ever had. Overall, a great meal. It's right downtown, accesible to a bunch of things, cute atmosphere, and in general a great pick for a downtown dinner. Follow my insta for more photos of food/places to eat! @devinchute read more

Chicken fried ribeyes in Boston, OMG so delicious!!! And I'm originally from Texas, where we ate chicken fried steak all the time when I was growing up! read more
My friend and I decided to come here after seeing that this place was "trending." There was no wait when we arrived. We got a half-booth and a chair table which seemed pretty cramped. It felt as if we were almost blocking in another couple by surrounding their table. We ordered the yellow mussels and smoked pork mac & cheese to share. The food came out pretty quickly. The pork mac & cheese was a little smaller than I had anticipated, but we were pretty pleased with it. There was a good amount of pulled pork on top - we were both happy about that. The yellow mussels came with some fries on top with a drizzle of delicious aioli. Maybe it's because I haven't had much experience eating mussels, but I didn't think it was anything particularly special. If anything, I enjoyed the French fries with the aioli much more than the mussels. The server was attentive, but it also seemed like she was rushing us out since she came by so often. Overall, my friend and I were stuffed at the end of our dinner. We were both satisfied, but I'm personally not sure I would come back again. It was a good experience, though. read more

Crispy Smoked Chicken Wings: so smokey and very good The service was very good, everyone was so nice and welcoming. There was such a good mood and feel to the ambience, i would come back here read more
Absolutely amazing food, service and location. The patio is spacious and perfectly situated near Chinatown. The waiters were attentive and made me feel safe to dine out. Food wise I really enjoyed the breakfast potatoes. It's a mix of sweet potatoes and potatoes and it's crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The brunch sandwich was also to die for. The egg was perfectly fried and seasoned. Highly recommend to go with friends or if you are trying to show friends/family around Boston! read more

This was my 1st time here for brunch and everything was delicious. The service was great. The flavors were great and everything was on point from the deviled eggs oooh so creamy and the chicken skins gave it the right amount of salt, the Kingston bowl salad was light and refreshing and light, the chicken epanada plate was great as well as my honey hot chicken plate I got scrambled with chedder instead of over easy both entrees came with home fries with a tri color medley of potatoes which was a great idea. Must get the Thank you next cocktail to bring the heat. All the drinks looked good. I'd definitely eat here again! read more

Went for brunch and most of the food was mediocre or not great. The espresso martini French toast was like a bread pudding type of casserole thing and didn't taste very much like espresso- pass. The biscuits tasted good but dry- pass. My breakfast tacos were pretty good- would eat again. On the other hand, every cocktail I had was excellent! read more

Stillwater is right next to the high rises on Kensington Street. I came here for brunch on a Sunday morning with a few friends and was stuffed by the time we left. It was quite festive with a few Christmas trees and holiday decor up. The QR codes for the menus were printed on coasters which was a nice touch. I ordered the 421 which is tater tots with pulled pork, poached eggs, and hollandaise sauce and PB & J creme brûlée to share with the table. There were a lot of tater tots and pulled pork piled high on the dish. The tots were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The eggs were poached nicely with a good runny yolk that was perfect for dipping the tots in. The PB & J creme brûlée was good, the creme had the peanut butter flavor while the jelly was on top of the caramelized sugar along with peanuts for texture. It's an upscale take on your classic PB & J sandwich. The service was good and overall we had a great brunch. read more

My boyfriend and I came here for brunch and had such a great experience. They have outdoor seating tucked away in the back and it's so cute and pleasant. The atmosphere is really nice, service is great, and the food is even better. We first ordered the chef's choice pancakes to share, and that day i believe it was some sort of cranberry/orange pancakes with chocolate. Absolutely delicious! It was a little sweet with all the chocolate but I loved that. Looking back, we probably could've had the pancakes for dessert after our meal but I personally don't think it spoiled our main entrees at all! I ordered the steak and blue pita sandwich and really enjoyed it! The caramelized onions and blue cheese were a great combination, and it went so well with the steak and pita. My boyfriend ordered the pulled pork sandwich that was on Texas toast, and he also really liked his. Who doesn't love Texas toast! The chips were a great side~ they weren't just boring potato chips, they had such a great crunch and yummy seasoning. Overall this place was a 10/10 and I would absolutely come back. Not to mention the cocktails were delicious! I loved each one we had (Thank U Next, the 405, and Apple Cider Mule). I think you can't go wrong here! read more
I had been before for brunch but was excited to see their offerings for dinner. To be honest, I didn't go in with many expectations but was glad to have visited! Their Mac and cheese was incredibly cheesy and creamy, it truly hit the spot. Our server was attentive and understanding when we informed him that we were in a rush to catch a show. Definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for comfort food, with good vibes and nothing too frilly! read more
A chill and pretty New American restaurant with some updated comfort food and cocktails. Great choice if you're in Boston on vacation or business though their hopping bar scene in front of house lets me know they're popular with the locals too ! Make reservations and get a table in the back of house. Super comfortable. The Noble Pursuit cocktail was the best one ! It was rum, prickly pear liqueur and hibiscus. Really different and nice. Slow Burn cocktail is mezcal and strong! Gin Blossoms cocktail was pretty peachy gin drink , pretty good. Tactical Turtleneck cocktail was a masculine bourbon and bitters cocktail if you like that kind of thing. Starters were the Homemade Cheese-it's and Dip.... interesting homemade crackers though I'm not sure it needed dip. Warm biscuits are a must order. Homey ! Deviled eggs were creamy looking. Main course of Kingston Bowl with salmon was a welcome lighter entree and tasty. My friend got the Ritz Chicken and thought it was tasty and substantial with a thick crust of Ritz crackers. Dessert was Chocolate Lava cake but there was no lava ! It was cooked all the way through so basically it's a brownie but still tastes good. Also, our server Brad was really great. He's extremely friendly and nice guy . All of the staff are nice . Dimly lit and relaxing place. Recommended. I would come back if I'm in Boston again. read more

I really liked this place. It was right around the corner from our hotel. The atmosphere is really nice, you walk in and there's a bar and further in there's tables and another bar where you can see the cooks. I ordered the chicken chili which was very tasty and it came with a biscuit, which was good. My friend ordered the healthy bowl which had lots of different items. She liked it. She also got a beer. Really comfortable atmosphere, nice crowd, great service, and lots of unique and healthy options and homemade comfort food. read more
This place is out of control. Deliciousness? Out of control. Portion size? Out of control. Niceness of staff? Out of control. Inventive cocktail selection? Out of control. The only thing that wasn't out of control was the pricing :) Everything we tried was excellent. The smoked buffalo chicken wings are some of the best I've had. We couldn't stop eating the pulled pork mac n' cheese. The ritz chicken was fabulous and those mashed potatoes, yeah. The cucumber melon salad was bright and fresh -- it reminded me of a similar Vietnamese or Thai salad. The pomodoro was good, although not quite as good as the other dishes (adding some red pepper flakes made a big difference). We were also fans of the cocktail menu, which had some fun twists. Super convenient walking and T location near South Station, Downtown Crossing, and Chinatown; parking can be a bit tough though. An excellent upgrade from Townsman! read more

Came here for lunch with my friend. Love the vibes of the restaurant and the service was warm and inviting. Unfortunately we weren't in love with the food. They sound more flavorful and exciting on paper then they did when we actually ate them. Seems like a good place for people who like to be adventurous but can't handle a new taste. To end on a positive note, one thing I HAVE to give credit for is the PB & J Creme Brûlée for dessert. That was something I would highly recommend. read more
I would give 3.5 stars. This restaurant is located at a convenient distance from the train station. Flavor wise, it is the epitome of American comfort food. Food I've tried: (* = my favorite) - BICUITS AND BUTTER ($7): I am personally a fan of flaky biscuits, and these were on the crumbly side. My personal taste aside, the dough was slightly salty. - ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS* ($8.50): I would say this was the best dish of the meal. The brussels sprouts were not tough at all, and they were very well prepared. The sauce and the topping of goat cheese paired nicely. - WARM BURRATA ($12): it was a standard burrata dish. The tomato sauce was not overly salty, the focaccia was exactly what you expect from focaccia. - HANGOVER BURGER ($17): the meat itself was well prepared and seasoned. The caramelized garlic was great, added a sweet flavor. The brioche bun was ok, not the most amazing bun I've had but a very standard bun. I did note that the plate was 70% tater tots and 30% burger. For $17, the burger was on the smaller side (the patties were the size of a post it note). The tater tots were very salty. - SMOKED PULLED PORK SANDWHICH ($14): presentation wise, it looks quite impressive with the meat piled on top of the bread. Flavor wise, it reminded me of something that I could make at home. As in, it was a very standard pulled pork sandwich, nothing overly spectacular. I did appreciate that the meat was not overly salted. - SMOKED PORK MAC & CHEESE ($16): again, very standard mac & cheese. Atmosphere: - I loved the interior vibe of the place. It is very nicely decorated, very cozy yet classy. - We visited on a Friday evening. Looking at the reservation on their website, there were no reservation spots available. We wanted to take our chances with walk in. When we arrived the restaurant was quite empty. All this to say, a reservation may not be necessary unless you have a large party. Service: - Extremely friendly. We got our food reasonably fast. Overall: - I would say it is solid comfort food that reminds you of the flavors you make at home. The price is reasonable, but it is still a decent amount of money to spend on "homey food." Personally, I look for flavors that I cannot quite replicate at home when eating out hence the 3.5 stars. read more

All of the staff was very friendly and attentive I missed my train and so I came here to get a quick grazing board to eat on the next train. For $19 I expected something better than a kids lunchable this restaurant looks too nice for the quality of a dish to look like this. read more

Solid brunch spot located next to Chinatown. My friends and I decided to come because we saw a photo of their biscuits! We made a reservation through resy for Saturday brunch. To start, we ordered the biscuits. The biscuits were cheddar black pepper and came with a side of maple butter. It was a good balance between savory and a little sweet. I ordered the eggs benedict, and they ordered the 421. Eggs benedict was average, and we enjoyed the variety of brunch potatoes that came with it. read more
