by Janina T. on Pros: - GREAT food. We ordered a type of lobster spring roll which was amazing - Nice assortment of mochi flavors for dessert - Really nice bathrooms with an attendant (although I didn't think the attendant was necessary) - Hot bartender (always a perk) - Decor/Ambience was great. Felt very Asian-fusion. Cons: - We made a reservation but STILL had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated - Long wait for our main meals to arrive post-appetizers. - SUPER crowded at the bar. It's hard to get a drink order in edgewise. (And this was on a Tuesday night!) - The hostesses didn't seem friendly at all. Overall, great food, great atmosphere, terrible, terrible waiting periods (especially after being drenched by a new york summer monsoon).
by Kathy N. on The lobby lounge at the Roosevelt was amazing. At first I thought it was great because of the ambiance and decor. It's a small, very sexy room with dark wood paneling, fireplace and deep leather sofas. Then, I tried to order a drink. The bartender (Matthew) was the only one working the room, so he came personally to our group and talked to each of us about what we wanted. He patiently listened to what we wanted, then suggested his own version of a drink. When I got my drink, I realized why this place is so good. Matthew makes amazing drinks. He uses his own, specially made syrups, spice mixes and juices (for example pomegranate seeds soaked in rum) to create the best cocktails I've ever tasted. I was going to be in Hollywood one more night so I brought a friend back with me the next night. We sat at the bar where Matthew led us through all kinds of treats. Be careful, they are so good, it's hard to stop. He keeps you asking for another!
by Idalia Redford on I went to the DBar last night for an event hosted by the amazing Queer Women of Color Boston for its QWOC Week. The bar is very sleek, very upscale, and caters to a gay clientele. The menu offers a nice variety of options (the calimari is good and comes with three different sauces); my partner had the soft shell crab appetizer (she said it was good overall, but the batter could have been seasoned more), and chicken under a brick (very good, and the mashed potatoes were pretty tasty). My drink of choice was a vodka gimlet (I'm bringing it back, ya'll), but it wasn't until my third one that they got it right: I think I had two vodka martinis and the lime juice didn't show up until later. I was very clear about a gimlet, but, apparently, something got miscommunicated on the way from the waiter to the bartender. But yeah, I drank it. Now, here's where it gets good: so, as I said, Dbar is gay friendly, but that does not translate to being gay WOMEN friendly, or even multicultural friendly. When we arrived, the server got all bent because we asked him to sit at a different table--he wanted us to sit practically on the couple's laps next to us, and the place was fairly empty--weird. The waiter kept bringing us our check even though we were clearly not finished (with a barely concealed look of anger when we reminded him we were still eating/drinking/chatting--but he did not do the same thing to the couples around us), and generally, the vibe was, yeah, spend your money here, but if you're not from the neighborhood, if you're not a gay man, and if you're not White, don't stay. It's like this bar is an oasis of yuppie-ness in the hood, and some people like it. I was sitting next to a couple who were cooing over having just put a bid in on a condo for 55K--a nice dose of gentrifcation to enhance my dining pleasure! And it's not like I go looking for experiences and places to confront inequality, but jeez...I gotta call it when I see it. It's sad because Dorchester needs a place like this, but I don't need to frequent places where I'm not welcome. Maybe it was an off night? Don't think so. I've been there a few times and the feeling is pretty consistent. And it's not like I'm not friendly, not courteous, not...decent. I only expect the same, want to enjoy my company and dining experience without feeling rushed out the door, and yeah, want my friggin' GIMLET!
