There are a few "accessible" seats at the back of the house on a venue where everyone is standing. So, you get a view of everyone's backside. And if that wasn't insult enough there's injury as well. Literally. There was no barrier insulating the accessible seating and people were continually tripping over my partner. I ended up standing to prevent people from injuring them. We were told that the box office was supposed to tell us to come an hour before the show started to get a seat at the front of the house. Really?!

Headed to the paradise rock club to check out a show on a week night. It's a super small venue…read moreright on Com ave with a bunch of cool little restaurants around to grab a bit before a show. It's very close to BU and felt like a vibrant and safe area. There are a couple bars inside, and a pit area and upstairs seating as well (I didn't go upstairs). It was just a cool spot and the sound was spot on. A pit was not tolerated, and crowd surfing is not allowed. Great spot that I'd go back to in a heartbeat.

Was told I was not allowed to go down to the merch table for multiple hours due to having to stay on my floor.

Cute little dive bar that is a favorite for locals. I popped in here as a tourist while I was on a…read morepub crawl tour and we were lucky enough to get a spot at the bar. It really is very tiny, so just be aware that seating is sometimes limited. They didn't have too much on draft, thought some of that was due to the Scottish being in town for the World Cup the week before. We went with lemon drop shots, and the bartender was very transparent about the fact that he was out of most of his supplies due to the Scottish. No fault at all to them for that because that was the situation at every bar we went to. Service was friendly, the shot was nice and strong, and it was a nice little spot. Beyond drinking, there isn't really much going on in the bar in terms of activities, but there were TVs. So, watching sports here is definitely an option. I'd definitely say that this spot is worth popping in if you are enjoying a night on the town, but that it probably shouldn't be the only spot you go to.

The Bebop sits near Berklee College of Music and combines the energy of an Irish pub with a live…read moremusic venue, creating a lively environment filled with musicians, students, locals, and visitors. We walked into a space where the walls are covered with photos of artists and music memorabilia, while dim lighting, packed tables, and frequent live performances give the restaurant a distinctly neighborhood feel. Whether stopping in for a casual drink or staying for an evening of music, the experience centers around the performances happening just a few feet away. The menu leans heavily into Irish pub comfort food with generous portions and hearty classics. We tried the Guinness Beef Stew and the Shepherd's Pie, both of which delivered rich flavors and exactly what you would expect from a solid Irish restaurant. Other popular items on the menu include curry fries, clam chowder, burgers, and traditional pub fare designed to pair naturally with a pint. The comfort food favorites consistently stand out, while opinions on some other menu items may vary. Service is friendly and welcoming, even on busy nights when the venue fills up for performances. The staff handles both diners and music crowds with ease, helping maintain a relaxed atmosphere despite the constant activity. Live entertainment is clearly a major part of the identity here, with regular performances ranging from Irish sessions and jazz to open mic nights and other local acts. For a neighborhood pub near Berklee that delivers on both hearty Irish food and live music, The Bebop offers a warm, energetic experience built around community and performance.

Starting with the most important part- FOOD: If it's a table…read moreshare, you'll have to order multiple apps. But all the apps were cooked very well, delicious. Ribs perfect, glad they were meaty pieces and not scrawny bones. Entrees: (and yes I tried all!) I am a steak fiend and was expecting more from the pallet but it was just eh OK. Salmon was dry and bland wish it was paired with a sauce and side dish but it was a big portion of just rice and fish. The BEST dish was the creole pasta and the two piece. I was not expecting that two piece to be the entire fowl! It was huge and tasty, not dry, biscuit was sweet and moist ! But the entrees are a good portion ! Ambience: Chic music lounge. Atmosphere is nice. It's a small/tight place, the pictures make it look bigger. We were a party of 6, sat at a booth. So some will have their back towards the stage but there's a tv screen of live view. Service: waitress was nice/attentive until it got later. Then it was harder to get someone to our table. the place turned more into a full lounge. Singer/band: perfect Drinks- kudos to the bar tenders: just right! Mixed well! Gratuity and an entertainment fee are included in the bill. Would I go back- YES

TL;DR: beautiful interior, inconsistent service, overpriced, subpar food…read more Two of my girlfriends and I were excited to try the newest jazz club/restaurant in the seaport, Grace by Nia. we've all been hearing such great things about it and finally got a reservation for Saturday night. After our night out, we all had mixed feelings about our experience. The interior is beautiful. It's classy and fun setting the scene for a nice vibe. service was nice but slow, we needed to flag down our waiter a couple times so we could order food. Some of the things we ordered were the fried catfish nuggets, braised oxtails, Mac and cheese and steak frites. Fried catfish bites were okay, the oxtail dish was tender but too sweet, Mac and cheese was standard and the steak was dry. I never mind paying top dollar for amazing dishes but these weren't it for us. Drinks were good though and the music was great. I'd suggest coming just to listen to a great live band and a nightcap.
