I wish it was not in the basement and a little more spacious, but I know space is hard to come by in downtown Boston. It can get pretty cramped if you go on a popular night. Staff here are lovely!

The Love in Tokyo cocktail was very sweet and creamy, at the cost of the matcha taste. First sip…read more(even after mixing) was heavy on the vodka, but this gets less overpowering as you continue to sip and let the ice melt to dilute it. Unfortunately, despite the sprinkling of matcha on top and the pleasant light green color of the cocktail, there was minimal matcha flavor in it. I was rather disappointed by how overwhelmingly cream-forward the taste was. However, this and many other cocktails are very pretty. If you're looking for a place with drinks that are more for the show or aesthetics, then this would probably be a good choice. The place was fairly accommodating of our large-ish party (~11 people)- it probably helped that we went on a Wednesday night when they were pretty much empty. They just let us sit in the corner and pull up chairs. Service was rather minimal and lackluster.

It was the coldest day of the year so far and we didn't want to walk all over trying to find somewhere to get a quick bite to eat. Since we were already staying at the intercontinental, we decided to eat at RumBa. We split a burger with truffle fries. It was more than enough to hold us over and the burger was so good! We were surprised by how good the food was because the ratings had us skeptical, but I have no complaints besides the slightly slower service we received. The view from the table we were sitting at was pretty amazing as well!

The dark, swanky vibes were spot-on - the chairs were super cushioned, the service was fast and attentive, and the drinks! What a great cocktail program, the base of Wink & Nod's excellence.

This dive bar has it all - chinese food, tiki drinks (you can take home the glass!), karaoke, amazing bartenders, and the absolute best vibe. We met so many fun, friendly people and we surprised to find a spot in the heart of a tourist destination that had so many local regulars! I had the Mai Tai, the Scorpion Bowl (shared, of course), and topped it off with an order of fried rice. The food is perfect for a night of drinking and was actually pretty good! Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a fun, divey vibe. I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area again!
