by Liza P. on We enjoyed our 10th anniversary dinner here. We went with the tasting menu for food and sake, and we were not disappointed. Pairings were exquisite, and the variations of flavors was amazing. Kobe beef was perfect, as was the many bizarre (yet delicious) dishes we tried. I would definitely eat here again, if only to see what new tastes they have invented. Only two improvements I'd like to see. First is seating - it is like sitting in the middle of a movie set. Not in a "oh, wow! I'm in a movie!" but more like "wow! I have no privacy! this is kinda uncomfortable!" Also, the gwobs of pretty people employees hovering around the entrance makes it feel like there's a slow day at Brookstones. Otherwise, this is a must-try for fans of the iron chef and for those of you foodies who need to have an intensely flavorful dining experience.
by Leslie Fines on Overall, I have to say this place is terrible. Scorpion bowls are weak (I can drink a few by myself and I'm not exactly Mr. Heavyweight), mixed drinks are terrible (since when does a 7 & 7 have vodka in it?) and if you get overcharged, you're S.O.L. thanks to their atrociously rude service. Their food is also, well, very greasy. Look at the sign, and you pretty much know what to expect. Judge this book by its cover.
by Kiwi H. on I don't mean to offend anyone who likes to frequent this place, but I really hate the Roxy. My feelings on a place are determined by my experiences there, and each one I've had at the Roxy has been absolutely horrible. I dislike the decor/layout/setup - yes, it's big, but it's not big and organized, or big with cool and unique decor - it's just big, to fit in more swarming, writhing, hot (and I mean hot-heat not hot-attractive) bodies, trying to do the nasty with each other. And speaking of nasty: okay, I know that some normal people go here too, so I'm not talking about everyone who goes to the Roxy. But in general, a majority of the vibe I've gotten on the (very few, and never again) occasions I've gone to the Roxy have been trashy, skanky, and people who just want to bump and grind with any member of the opposite sex. Plus, it's usually full of college freshmen trying to slide past the obnoxious bouncers with their crappily-made fake IDs. It's a shame that there are great bands who would play here, because I dislike this place so intensely that even if my favourite bands were to hold a concert here, I'm still not sure if I'd go. I hear that it's one of the most common place in Boston to have people try and scam you with date rape drugs, and I have to say I'm not surprised. As far as the music goes - it's mediocre. The music was too loud and thumping in a bad way. If I want to go to a club with a diverse/international crowd to dance all night to the latest house/club hits, I'd much rather go to Venu, Rumor, Aria any day. At least I won't get mauled by a lecherous sleazebag every two seconds, while getting shoved in every direction. The last time I was coerced into going there, my friends and I got mauled by a huge, "I want to have Van Damme muscles" guy wearing a ripped, dirt-stained, mud-smeared, old oversized white t-shirt, cutoff ripped jeans, and the words "Dirty D" cheaply scribbled onto the front of his shirt and "Dirty Dan's da MAN" on the back with a Sharpie. I almost punched him in the face, and had to shove him off when he wouldn't stop following us around and attempting to grind despite my growls of "Go f**k yourself and leave me alone." I've only ever gone when I've been dragged along, and I have since vowed to not even set a toe in here ever again. I think this is one of my most hated places for nightlife in Boston.
