We were looking for lunch near Revere Beach and noticed the excellent Yelp reviews for Valsos on…read moreShirley Avenue. After making a reservation, the three of us arrived shortly after noon to find the restaurant completely empty. In fact, there were no staff in sight. After calling toward the kitchen, a waitress appeared, and we seated ourselves. After ordering waters and iced teas, we looked over the extensive menu and chose: * Ay Caramba! ($16) - A vegetarian tapa packed with corn, peppers, spinach, mushrooms, and more. * Margherita Pizza ($18) - Garlic confit, fresh basil, vine-ripened tomatoes, and fresh mozzarella. * Panko-Crusted Baked Haddock ($32) - Served with roasted potatoes, seasonal vegetables, and a white wine cream reduction. The Ay Caramba! was the standout dish of the meal. It was flavorful, with a great texture, and easily our favorite. The Margherita pizza featured a very thin, crisp crust with fresh tomatoes and a light touch of sauce, making for a good but not exceptional pizza. Opinions on the haddock were mixed--one diner enjoyed it, while another thought it had a slightly fishy taste. The restaurant itself has a pleasant, inviting atmosphere, and once service began, our waitress was friendly, attentive, and checked on us several times throughout the meal. At almost $100 with tip, this isn't an innexpensive place. That said, we enjoyed lunch and would be happy to return. Tip: Metered parking is available on the street and there is a small parking lot next to Valsos. You can also park further down toward the beach, about a 5-minute walk to the restaurant.

The mimosas are a hit with flavors to choose from like; original, mango, strawberry, blueberry, and passion fruit... The service is elite and on point. Their playlist makes you want to stay the whole day with them and vibe out! The views are nice (when it's not a cloudy day at Revere Beach). I highly recommend. Come on down with a group, with a friend or family member and enjoy yourself!

The lobster roll had huge pieces of lobster and was filled to the brim. It was like eating the sea - so fresh! It came with fries and cole slaw. I didn't care for the slaw because it has raisins in it. Hubby said chowder was good but not the best he ever had. DD liked her mac and cheese. We shared a Boston cream pie with no whip cream. We never had it before. It was pretty good with custard in the center and moist cake and not too sweet. Service: busy place. We waited about 40 minutes to be seated. But our server was very friendly and checked on us a couple times. Ambiance: great location by the water. We had an inside seat. Very loud bar experience. Parking: we parked in a lot not too far down on the same street. They do not validate.

I came here 4 times when in town for a conference, as this way super conveniently located to the conference center (Menino). It's open 7am-10pm daily, is always seemingly busy but always very efficient and fast to deliver orders, and has a huge amount of comfortable seating. First visit: I tried the vegan breakfast burrito ($12), a nicely designed burrito with tofu, potato, spinach, roasted red peppers, vegan cheese, and mushrooms, served with salsa on the side. Very solid burrito. The Spanish burrito I tried another day--which came with vegan meatballs of some sort--was even better. Second visit: I got an açai bowl ($9 for the small size; $12 for regular), and added vegan protein powder ($2) blended in. It came with açai blended with almond milk, banana, strawberries, blueberries, and granola. Real good and plentiful even for the small size. Third visit: just ordered a bagel with vegan cream cheese that had tomato in it, and added some spinach on top ($5.50 total). Very generous spinach portion (for $0.50!), well-toasted bagel, and an appropriate amount of cream cheese. Very tasty. Moreover, each time I visited, I ordered a double espresso ($3.50), which was excellent. Proper espresso, deep body, strong, served with sparkling water and a piece of dark chocolate.

Everything was flavorful, and the service was surprisingly fast considering how busy it was. We went back and tried a few other things, including the pumpkin smoothie and pastel de nata. Unfortunately, those were misses for me. The smoothie had a sour aftertaste, and the pastry seemed stale or like it had been sitting around for a while. The custard flavor was also pretty nonexistent aside from tasting mostly like sugar. I've had better pastel de nata elsewhere, although it's possible that's simply the flavor profile they were going for. Overall, some things were really enjoyable, while others didn't quite live up to the first visit

The sauce tasted like it was James River BBQ sauce, the sauce used by north shore beef places and was good. Ri e was generic rice pilaf. It came with a basic salad.

Nonetheless, I received my table immediately. State Street's tap beer selection had decent regional representation - Zero Gravity, Jacks Abbey, Lawsons, Maine Beer, Night Shift, and Dorchester Brewing. For this dinner, I sampled the brussel sprouts (appetizer, $13), the scallop tagliatelle ($38), and sides of broccolini and house-cut fries ($6 ea). The brussel sprouts arrived in the textbook modern fashion - crisped up leaves and well seasoned. The establishment chose to garnish theirs with soy caramel, miso yogurt, and cilantro. The broccolini side also received a decent coating of oil and seasoning - the exact treatment that a high end steakhouse would give. The house cut fries proved liberally salted and not overly oily. My main, the scallop tagliatelle, had scallops seared to perfection and with a hint of smokiness. The pasta itself carried seafood savoriness, accentuated by a cream sauce that coated well but didn't feel too heavy on the palate. The atmosphere seemed nice and upscale but not unapproachable. My outdoor table faced State Street. Since it was the final part of the street before reaching the waterfront, it saw little traffic so I was not annoyed by cars passing a few feet away. Overall, I quite enjoyed my dinner. I'll be sure to keep State Street in mind the next time I'm looking for a modern New England seafood restaurant.
