Happening scene starring masterful cocktails & modern brasserie fare in a glamorous atmosphere.

"WHAT: Venerable Boston restaurateur Garrett Harker gives New England the brasserie it deserves. 

WHY: This lively Kenmore Square institution is an all-people pleaser: excellent craft cocktails, perfected bistro favorites like steak frites and roasted chicken, and exceptional hospitality (legend has it they have a dossier on every guest). The tables may sport white linen, but don’t mistake that for pretense; the restaurant stays open all day and into the wee hours when bartenders leap atop the back bar to scrawl late-night specials on the mirror."
