Really disappointed in management here. We arrived at 3pm Saturday without a reservation and there was a wait for drinks or a table. I was hoping we would be in between the lunch and dinner rush but no luck. That's fine. We're we're deciding wether to stay or find another place and we went to the bathroom. The manager yell at the host for letting us use the restroom. The poor dude just doin go his job and being nice. Like I get it if we were just people off the street not trying to eat there but you won't let people use the bathroom while they wait for a table? (There was zero line for the bathroom btw) We immediately decided to leave after hearing her scold the host and I won't be going back. Tons of other options in the north end. Some restaurants have gotten so cocky since covid. And I say this as someone who worked 10yrs in both front and back of house. read more

bartender gave my friends seat to his friends while my friend was in the bathroom. i asked for the check & he immediately called his friends over but damn could he have waited for a second? drinks were ok but okkkkkkk?????? not serving edit: they responded, very hostile by the way, and they lied! we actually had been there for upwards of an hour before she went to the bathroom and your bartender had his friend take her seat. please work on customer service training and social media training- as responding to feedback in this manner is odd and unprofessional! read more

This place is super small and unaccommodating!!! The owner approaches everyone like hes better than them. Not going to return.

Came here on a Friday night for some after-dinner cocktails last year. My wife and I saw it was new and wanted to try it out especially because we're big cocktail aficionados. The place was extremely busy. It's full of style with some substance. We sat at the bar after a brief wait despite having a reservation. I looked around and I think my wife and I were probably some of the oldest people there, definitely a younger crowd. The cocktails were good but my expectations were high with the very hip and stylish atmosphere. They even have a bouncer at the door. Like another reviewer remarked some of the cocktails had too much ice. read more

The food is great and I love the wait staff, but the place went from a really really nice North End gem to a circus in the course of a year thanks to the management doing absolutely everything they can to make the place instagrammable. The menu used to be solid, but now it's turned into an enormous expensive kitchen-sink mess; they're constantly experimenting and trying to do way too much both as a restaurant and as a bar, basically throwing everything at the wall and hoping something sticks. It's overpriced for what you end up getting and the cramped ambiance. Even if you make a reservation in advance, getting seated is often a process, and thanks to their constant gimmicks, they're usually full of wannabe-influencers. The place is a lot smaller than you'd expect, so be ready for that. Maybe management should cool it a bit with the wild ever-expanding food options (that their kitchen definitely doesn't have the capacity for, hence the wait times) and the flash over substance approach, and focus on a simper, solid menu, an expanded staff, and better organization. Plus, their website barely works. lol. In the meantime, I do suggest you visit - but only during their less busy times! read more

2 stars rounded down. My friends and I went for my birthday and we were incredibly put off by the service. The bouncer was very stern for a restaurant and came across as interrogative, not exactly the most welcoming foot to start on. We were seated and were waiting on one more guest and hadn't had the menus two minutes before our waiter came back to tell us that there was a reservation for our table after us and we shouldn't take our time to order, which I thought was unnecessary and rude. At the bottom of the menu there is a disclaimer that a 20% gratuity "may be added" to the bill but when we went to pay it we weren't able to edit the tip total at all (we didn't think our waiter had earned that 20% by a long shot). The food was good enough but I didn't feel it was worth the price. The drinks were very sweet, my friend who ordered an $11 mocktail didn't finish hers due to how sweet it was. They're advertised as a restaurant but Wicked Craft is painstakingly striving for a Vegas influencer club vibe. Low lighting and club music with neon signs for decorations. There was a man with a professional camera walking from table to table filming you as you eat and drink which was deeply uncomfortable. I don't remember signing a release/consent form granting them permission to film every minute of our experience there for media content, but apparently that was what you signed up for? My friends and I found this very distracting and anxiety-inducing. I would be curious to know if anyone else was as deeply bothered by this aspect of their experience too. Overall I would not recommend this place. If you want to be able to see and hear your friends, not be harassed by photographers mid-bite, as well as get remotely decent service, go to any of the other restaurants in the North End. read more

I would recommend coming here for drinks but not food. The drinks were delicious and they have a huge cocktail and shot menu. The atmosphere and vibes are really fun and club like. After 8pm they start playing club like music. The food portions were huge but the menu was all over the place and the food was bland and even seemed like microwave or airport food. The service was subpar, while they were nice and accommodating over the phone they were slow with drinks and clearing plates. read more

Daytime review: Stopped in around 1:30pm for Sunday brunch, and they were blasting music as if it were a Friday night rager. They seemed annoyed that we asked for the music to be turned down. However, really awesome food!!!! Didn't try any drinks but would like to another time. I'm sure this is a great place to be at nighttime read more

Tiktok really made this place hyped up and I was not impressed. My boyfriend and i had reservations, and we arrived about 15 mins early. we were seated right away. The dining room is extremely small, and they really pack you in. i felt like we were dining with strangers, thats how close our tables were. We ordered drinks which took 30 mins to arrive. As pictured, only one was a cocktail, the other was a simple beer. So im not sure why it took that long. We ordered a chicken flatbread. This was alright, but i wish the chicken wasnt fried cutlets cut into chunks. it made the flatbread very messy. Before we were even done with the flatbread, our meals came, which is a huge pet peeve of mine. We did not have the table space to keep our appetizer and both our meals, so we requested the appetizer to be boxed. I ordered the alla vodka and my boyfriend ordered the lemon chicken. Presentation was good, but the taste wasnt anything special. My dish was so hot i burned my mouth, definitely too hot to be serving that soon. My boyfriends lemon chicken was soggy. Just really would not recommend this place, there was not much i would say was good about here. read more

Customer service, horrible. I didn't cancel 24 hours before my reservations and was charged $50 for a no show basically. I tried calling this establishment at the moment it opened as well as sending a message through open table. in the middle of the night I started feeling ill. I don't want to be in an establishment spreading germs and possibly getting anyone else sick and they refused to refund me $50 for the reservation. Don't get sick people, there's no empathy for you. They will not refund your money due to unfortunate circumstances. They said "yeaaaa, there's nothing we can do" but you can definitely can. As fast as you took it you can give it back. read more

Food is average. Mostly about an atmosphere - which is good Would not return though as the food is very uninspiring Cocktails are interesting sounding but not crafted with exceptional quality More of a cheesecake favorite type experience that excellent dining experience. But they do Cheesecake Factory well. read more

Completely overpriced but the service is really good. The drinks are more esthetically pleasing than tasty and the food is just decent. They are really skimpy on sauce. Would not come back for brunch. The restaurant was also much smaller than I had anticipated. read more

I was told in a unprofessional manner via Instagram that they do not care for emergencies of their customers. Had to cancel reservations 24 hours in advance due to an emergency room visit and was told I'd get charge 25 dollars per person for cancelation fee. Then stated emergencies don't matter it is what it is. Terrible customer service. If you ever cancel make sure it's 7 days in advance or something I guess. read more

This place it's super fun to come in with friends and have some nice looking drinks The food it's really good too but I feel like it's a little overprice but I think this place it's more like a ig spot to show off online . read more

This review is for their Sunday brunch. Been wanting to come for quite a while, decided to go for my birthday (which they almost acknowledged at check in.. very awkwardly). I may go back but it won't be for brunch. I was a party of two, please be aware that means you may be put in the front window at the counter. I only saw one party of two sat at a table. Keep in mind. They focus all their attention on big parties doing bottle service. Oddly enough we would have ordered a bottle but they didn't even make any recommendations or even offer it to us. Guess they assumed we couldn't afford it because we were only a party of two???? Unsure. We were dressed to the hilt so couldn't have been based on appearance. Real pity because I would definitely have come back with a group for brunch another time and paid for bottle service but tbh, I don't want to be part of other parties getting ignored simply because my bill is guaranteed to be bigger . Food was good except the avocado on the avocado toast was absolutely drenched in lemon. Other than that good prices even for the drinks and good portions. May come back but for a casual drink only. I'll take my brunch money elsewhere! read more

The plating is very creative. I had the beet salad and it was fantastic. The bar staff is very friendly. Try the Old Fashioned. You won't be sorry. The decor is fun with a living wall and flowers everywhere. Reggae music playing tonight. The staff all contribute their play lists. Loved it! read more

Went here for a 10-person work dinner and had an excellent time. The drinks are absolutely delicious and the vibe was on point. Only complaint was those who ordered the salmon said it tasted a little too fishy but the lobster rolls were delicious and jam-packed with lobster. Wouldn't recommend going with any bigger than 10 as the restaurant itself is small. read more

Amazing food, drinks, and service! The vibe of this place was so cool and the music is just loud enough to be fun but you can still hear the people you're sitting with! I got the Italian sunrise and it was exquisite! My friend got a delicious and very cool looking Bloody Mary! Highly recommend!! read more

If I could do 0 stars I would. I don't even write reviews but this was genuinely the craziest experience I have ever had. I was out with friends on Friday night when my friends and I witnessed one of the security guards tackle a man and have him in a chokehold while the man was asking to be let go because he couldn't breathe. Moments later another man (short and bald) pushed a woman down on the side walk right outside the bar. Whatever the situation was I don't think it should ever lead to this level of aggression. A security guards job is to deescalate the situation never to make things worse. Awful workers and an even worse environment. read more

The food here was so much better than I expected! The drinks are strong and unique and have great presentation. We ordered the turkey sandwich and fries and were pleasantly surprised at how good it was! Definitely coming back. Great place for a girls night out or a celebration. read more

Very cool spot to get some drinks! We loved everything on the drink menu except one. The place is small but when we were there we still were able to get a spot. We also got the pasta chips and those were good as well. Our waitress was super nice and attentive. Would definitely recommend checking this place out. read more

I came here one time and I know I will not return. It is next to impossible to find parking , the location is literally right downtown . The staff was alright , drinks were watered down and over priced. I wont return nor will I recommend this place. read more

Our server, Bailey, was incredibly friendly and helpful. Highly recommend the Mt. Vesuvius. read more

Newly opened restaurant and bar in the North End in Boston. The food was great and exceeded expectations. Not a huge spot but definitely a great place to have drinks and food with some friends. They have some really interesting drinks on the menu and a good selection of beers and ciders, including some recommended by the staff which I hadn't heard of or tried before but loved. Check it out if you're in the area. read more

Patio seating, great service! What I ordered: Poison Ivy Espresso Martini (Light, Dark) Slice of Heaven Voodoo Chicken What I'd order again: Poison Ivy Espresso Martini (Light, Dark) Slice of Heaven (Sauce on the side) Voodoo Chicken (Sauce on the side) read more

The presentation of the food and drink was impressive and the vibe was so much fun. Awesome music and friendly staff. Our server spent time suggesting places to go out after, it was refreshing to have someone be so friendly in comparison to some of the other experiences in the area. read more

Both the drinks and food items are completely unique and not on any other menu you've seen before. Cheers!

My friend and I went here on a Thursday for a girls night and we were EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED! Although the restaurant was beautifully decorated, it did not take away from the lack of friendliness and slow service. Upon entering, we were asked for ids and given a seat along the window. The street view was nice, people watching. However, we waited 8 minutes before someone even came to bring water. When the waiter came over, he never introduced himself or even seemed interested in explaining the menu as this was our FIRST time there. We ordered drinks that took so long to get to us. As soon as he set the drinks down, we were asked what we wanted to eat. The menus were taken and we sat for several more minutes before being brought our food. While eating, we were never asked for refills or anything. The food was OK, nothing that you would be seeking but great if someone is treating you to a meal (maybe). At the end of the meal, i went to order another drink, asked the waiter for a menu and never got it. When he finally came back, menu in hand, i told him i just wanted the bill. Do you know, for a party of 2, GRATUITY IS ADDED?!? So on top of terrible service, we were forced to pay a 20% gratuity to a very undeserving waiter. I WILL NEVER GO HERE AGAIN! read more

I read great reviews about this establishment. I made reservations in advance. My party arrived early and waited to be seated. The host and manger greeted us and confirmed our table for party of 3 was being prepared. We waited for 15 minutes. When we approached the host, she said it was busy and give her another few minutes. To our surprise, a party of 3 shortly after showed up and was quickly seated. My party and I were very wickedly disappointed in the treatment and left! read more

I never leave bad reviews but I have to with this one. The service at this place is horrible. Drinks are weak and the place is very small. We had a reservation for a table. They made us wait at the bar and sat other people that walked in after us. When we asked what happened to our table they tried to sit us against the wall with stool. They did not apologize, they were unprofessional. We walked out of there. They are selling ambiance with the neon sign and pretty drinks but it's not worth it. read more

Excellent drinks, okay food - food took over an hour to arrive at our table so don't come hungry... overall fun experience since the environment is vibey and they play club-esque music. Menu is a bit pricey but the flatbread and truffle potato dish portions were pretty good. read more

Came in to grab some brunch and the male hostess was rude and unhelpful to our group. Understandable that there were no tables, but he continued to have an attitude when we were looking for other options. Why do your hostess feel entitled to be so rude to guests?? read more

Place is tiny, food is mediocre and drinks were okay. The service was great but we won't go again. We thought it would be really fun for a birthday party but reality and how it's depicted on Instagram didn't compare. read more

This place is a tourist trap/ wannabe Strega. Cameras obnoxiously in your face the whole time. I get wanting to get content but it's overkill. Foods eh, the home fries taste like cigarettes. Drinks could be good if they stopped being extra. Overall they're trying way too hard, the vibe could be cool but they ruin it with the camera crew. read more

The atmosphere is fun, but the food is subpar (& too expensive for what it is) and the owner is incredibly rude.

They are going for instagrammable food but there is no substance. The katsu was soggy and didn't go well with the noodles or the meat sauce it came with. Dishes are over $25 to $30 with sub-par ingredients. And the tip options show 30%, 25%, or 20% as default which felt like a scam after already being charged so much for the low-quality dishes. read more

Such a cute restaurant the cocktails are amazing and the food is yummy. Service is good restaurant is quite small but otherwise everything is perfect I love coming here when I can get a table ;) read more

Service was terrible at the bar. Waited over 20mins just to be greeted by the bartender that seem like she hated her job.

I have never, EVER had WORSE service. Sat at the bar, spent $85 on cocktails and waited 2 hours for food. It never came. Went down the street to Benevento's and was served by beautiful Samantha in MINUTES. Best waitress E. V. E. R. Do not go to Wicked Craft. read more

Stopped in for lunch with my brother and sister. The ambiance of this place makes it hard to walk out without a smile on your face. Nico made us feel like family and everyone was impressed with his recommendations, best in the business. read more
