| Walking through the doors of this quaint Beacon Hill Boutique one is instantly greeted by the bubbly and helpful staff. The store is stocked with interesting labels and a variety of merchandise that ranges from designer jeans, fun and flirty summer dresses, to flattering evening wear. I could not be more impressed. The icing on the cake is not only the great interior of the store, but reasonable prices: something that is hard to come by on posh Charles St.! | |

| Delicious and nutritious. Top quality deli sandwiches next to exotic and healthy greek dishes. Perfect portions and never fails. | |

| Great place for late night pizza. Tastes much better at 2 a.m., than it would at 2 p.m. | |
| Wednesday, August 22, 2007 | |
| Fantastic Ceasar salads and great tapas. Get on their e-mail list and they will send you a bunch, but it is worth it to be kept in the loop of this place! | |

| Icarus has lovely food and is in a great part of the city, however, I could not help feeling that this place had a slight stuffiness, like somewhere I would be taken by my grandparents. | |

| Cool and sleek- this joint keeps the financial district power brokers coming back for more with yummy cocktails and late night tapas. Great patio seating as well! | |

| Great dentists and attentive staff. The crew at Gentle Dental not only cares about you as a patient, but they care about you as a person as well. Great prices and they try their best to make root canals and crowns as pain free as possible! | |

| Fantastic old school charm and one of the best places to go get a serious martini in this town. Any place that gives you your own shaker is doing something right! | |

| Joe's American Bar and Grill- hard to go wrong with this one. Consistently stable in food and fun, this North End and Back Bay place is pretty fool proof. A fun place to go with girlfriends for a quick lunch or a much needed bloody mary on a sunday morning, the dark oak and homey decor is easy on the eyes. The menu full of big salads, pastas, and burgers, satisfies and is easy on the wallet as well. However, my personal belief- the steak salad does not impress. Go for the chinese chicken salad instead! | |

| Know that if you are going in the summer Thursday thru Sat, you will be waiting in line to get in if you roll up after 9 pm! This crowded summer bar is much more sedate and relaxed in the winter! | |

| I do not know anyone that does not LOVE this place. They also just opened a new one in the Fenway neighborhood. The pizza's are inventive and delicious and the salads are just as good. Not only a great place to eat, come here for drinks and to meet as well. | |

| I went here on a double date and the food was not only fanstastic, but the belly dancers kept us entertained all evening! | |
| Thursday, August 23, 2007 | |
| Great for wine and cheese, however, I found their wine list prices quite inflated. Really fun and funky site though. | |

| A Beacon Hill favorite loved by all either for bruch or dinner! However, word to the wise. If you are tired, hung over, or do not care for crowds, you will not enjoy this place on Sat. and Sun. from morning to early afternoon for the brunch crowd. | |
| Thursday, August 23, 2007 | |
| Fantastic and innovative Tuscan food- a little more pricey than what you first anticipate! | |
| Friday, August 24, 2007 | |
| Always filled to the brim, this Back Bay/South End favorite is full of creative dishes at pleasing prices. A couple can get out of there for $60 for dinner! | |
| Friday, August 24, 2007 | |
| Went with a group of 8 girls and we had the best time! Lots of interesting people to meet and the drink prices are not that bad! | |
| Friday, August 24, 2007 | |
| Brad is the best massuese in the city and can be found in the spa here at Beaucage! Average spa prices as well as for haircuts, esp. on Newbury Street. | |
| Friday, August 24, 2007 | |
| Some of the best burgers in the city as well as a great watering hole for the neighborhood that not so many know about! | |
| Thursday, August 30, 2007 | |
| I love H&M! You can always find the best finds and really fun fashions without hurting your wallet! There are 3 locations in Boston- this one always has the longest lines!!!!! | |
| Thursday, August 30, 2007 | |
| Best veggie lasagna that I have ever had! This is the Camridge brother of the Boston Cafe Podima: neither should be missed! | |
| Thursday, August 30, 2007 | |
| Great wine, fun tapas, and a cool place- a nice way to spend an evening! | |
| Thursday, August 30, 2007 | |
| Some of the healthiest pizza around due to it's traditional tomato sauce, chunky veggies, and thin crust. | |
| Tuesday, September 04, 2007 | |
| If you like to do dim-sum, this is the place that you need to go. Next time you are feeling in the need for some culture and excitement on a Sunday morning, this is the place to head. | |

| As far as cemeteries go, this one is great! | |
| Thursday, September 06, 2007 | |
| One can not go wrong with any sticky treat they pry with wax paper out of Rosie's Bakery, don't worry: calories are not counted in this Cambridge sweet shop! | |
| Thursday, September 06, 2007 | |
| The best burger I have had since I moved to Boston. Def. worth the calories! | |
| Friday, September 07, 2007 | |
| Great clothes- love the store on Nantucket as well. Although, very pricey..... | |
| Friday, September 07, 2007 | |
| Whenever I go to a Chase Gallery I am always overcome with the beauty of the work and the diversity of the artists. Gorgeous paintings. A great gallery to peek into. | |
| Friday, September 07, 2007 | |
| One of my favorite restaurants in Boston! Romantic and cozy, this basement find is perfect for that first date. Great prix fixe as well. | |
| Monday, September 10, 2007 | |
| I love Flour Bakery! What a perfect place to bring your pooch and paper and enjoy a cup of coffee or a sweet treat while people watching on Washington street? Do not miss Joanne Chang's newest venture, and Flour's big brother in the Fort Point Channel area. | |
| Wednesday, September 12, 2007 | |
| Not just a Harvard bar, this is a great Cambridge hole in the wall. Everyone is having a good time at Grendel's Den! | |
| Thursday, September 13, 2007 | |
| As a recovering sweetooth, I was instantly plunged back into the sticky and sugary depths of addiction upon entering Dylan's. A feast for the eyes and tummy! More candy than I knew what to do with! | |
| Thursday, September 20, 2007 | |
| Great nail salon! So glad that it is here for me to use! | |

My steak frites were excellent, the steak juicy and the bernaise sauce full of flavor. Although the majority of the wine list was pricey, there were some relatively nice moderate priced whites dotting the list. The restaurant is loud, but the scene and people watching definitely makes up for it! I would not head there for an intimate date or dinner with family- my Dad would hate how loud it was!

| Stephanie's has great food, however, I find it more expensive than necessary. I do love that it is great people watching in a great location. | |
| Thursday, October 11, 2007 | |
| One of my favorite neighborhood bars in the city! Always has a good crowd and a great burger. Laid back and always fun! | |
| Thursday, October 11, 2007 | |
| One of the cutest stores in Beacon Hill and much needed addition! | |
| Thursday, October 11, 2007 | |
| My favorite thing in the whole place: MEDITERRANEAN CHICKEN Sautéed breast of chicken with artichoke hearts, kalamata olives, oven-roasted tomatoes, mushrooms and baby spinach, finished with a white wine lemon butter sauce. Served with whipped cream potatoes and broccolini - 14.95 Can not beat it- and esp. for the price. Enough food for my lunch the next day! | |
| Thursday, October 11, 2007 | |
| My first 2 years in Boston during graduate school, this was the bar where my friends and I ended every party night! | |
| Thursday, October 11, 2007 | |
| Get the Thai Jungle Steak salad with mint and papaya- so delicious!!!! | |
| Thursday, November 01, 2007 | |
| I went here for a birthday party with a few friends and we were able to order a variety of tapas that kept things very interesting. Also, our server went out of his way to sing our friend Happy Birthday, and even got the whole restaurant to join in. Talk about going above and beyond! Great location and fun locale! | |
| Friday, November 02, 2007 | |
| I love this bar- but during the crazy and crowded summer months, I will only go here on a Thursday night when I know I will have a table so I do not have to fight my way through the bar! | |
| Monday, November 05, 2007 | |
| The best pizza in my life! Want to buy the place and eat it all day! | |
| Monday, November 05, 2007 | |

Brooks Brothers has maintained it's classy presence for years. I went to the State Street location to pick out a present for my Dad and the staff was so helpful and the selection was wonderful!

| These condo's are gorgeous and are at the perfect location of Financial District and Waterfront views. Although, this neighborhood can still seem like a ghost town on the weekends! | |
| Friday, November 16, 2007 | |
| South Station is such an accessible transportation hub for the city of Boston. And unlike other major train and bus stations that I have been to, I never feel unsafe at South Station. | |
| Friday, November 16, 2007 | |
| The best and most popular financial comapny to go to for your 401k needs. They treated my investments questions and needs with the same respect and enthusiasm as they would a major player. | |
| Friday, November 16, 2007 | |
| One of the best banks that I have used in terms of costumer service. This location covers all gamuts as it is a banking center, ATM, and corporate headquarters. | |
| Monday, November 19, 2007 | |
| One of my favorite places to go in the summer, but make sure to get there early to get in line! Always a scene and a great place to go for a laid back good time! | |
| Tuesday, November 20, 2007 | |
| I love this place. Not only is it located close by my office, but the 20% specials that they have early in the week are fabulous as well as the service and products are great! A wonderful South End nail salon with other services too! | |
| Wednesday, November 21, 2007 | |
| I went here with a group of friends and we had the best experience. I would def. return! | |
| Monday, November 26, 2007 | |
| I love the BSC- I usually work out at the Copley location, but the Davis Square one is great as well! | |
| Monday, November 26, 2007 | |
| The perfect place to go for drinks in the warm weather- rooftop can not be beat. | |
| Monday, November 26, 2007 | |
| One of the best studio's that I have been to in the Fort Point Channel Area. I was able to get a painting for my kitchen for a fantastic price- a huge studio with alot to choose from. | |
| Thursday, November 29, 2007 | |
| I love this place! The perfect locale for a mug of cocoa with a friend, or a glass of wine and decadent dessert on a date! | |
| Thursday, November 29, 2007 | |
| Their light ale with fresh blueberries floating on top is one of my favorite beers, hands down! | |
| Friday, November 30, 2007 | |
| I hear that this is a really fun place to hang out in the Dot! | |
| Friday, December 07, 2007 | |
| What a wonderful store full of not only great finds for gifts and for the little ones, but such sweet and helpful employees! | |
| Friday, December 07, 2007 | |
| Do not get the veggie lasagna- grease city! | |
| Friday, December 07, 2007 | |
| What can be better than a place that injects all of it's pastries with ice cream and covers everything in chocolate? A less traditional dessert to be found in the North End! | |
| Friday, December 07, 2007 | |
| What an incredibly cool place and a great gem to find on that street! | |
| Friday, December 07, 2007 | |
| One of my favorite stores in the city! | |
| Friday, December 07, 2007 | |
| Going and sitting at the bar and having a cocktail with my friends is so much fun and worth the extra expense. In regards to high tea, The Four Seasons has the best one in town in my opinion- it is so cozy! | |
| Monday, December 10, 2007 | |
| One of my FAVORITE places to go for pizza in the city! | |
| Monday, December 10, 2007 | |
| One of my favorite spots as it is not only a great bar, but a great place to grab a bite as well. Def. try the chowder and seafood salad! One of the few bars with the Nantucket red as a breakfast beverage! | |
| Tuesday, December 11, 2007 | |
| Really fun and creative flavors and started right here in Beantown! | |
| Tuesday, December 11, 2007 | |
|
The peanut butter cannoli with chocolate chips is the absolute best! Can be a tourist nightmare as well, so beware in the summer!

| Tuesday, December 11, 2007 | |
| Went here off a recommendation from a friend, and have to say that I was a bit disappointed with the entree. However, cool decor and a great location. | |
| Tuesday, December 11, 2007 | |
| Try the scallops. The food is pricey as well as the drinks, but the vibe is somewhat cool! | |
| Wednesday, December 12, 2007 | |
| A great place to take out of town guests to get a sense of local history. | |
| Wednesday, December 12, 2007 | |
| A wonderful place to go and discover a fascinating part of Boston's history that many do not know. I loved my time here and this little museum is tucked away in such a quaint spot. | |

| Delicious and voted Best of Boston for their amazing seafood selection and variety of sauces you do not want to miss! | |

| Thursday, June 12, 2008 | |
| A wide variety of gelato in a cool space. On the pricier side. | |
| Wednesday, December 12, 2007 | |
| This is one of my favorite bars in the city and always has a fun scene going on! | |
| Wednesday, December 12, 2007 | |
| Wonderful low prices for dynamic food and good, solid service. Where I come to get my naan warmed! | |
| Wednesday, December 12, 2007 | |

| Thursday, December 13, 2007 | |
| A great place to sit in the bar area for a drink or a light bite. I always stay for a bit of people watching as well! | |
| Thursday, December 13, 2007 | |
| What a charming place! And so lucky to get a seat as this is a neighborhood fave. | |
| Thursday, December 13, 2007 | |
| No.9 Park is always noted for it's general excellence in everything that they do. Barbara Lynch ventures out to try new creative twists with her cuisine and never fails to please. | |
| Thursday, December 13, 2007 | |
| Great place to have as they always let me know what I need to do, and even better: how to do it! | |
| Thursday, December 13, 2007 | |
| I go to the location on Charles Street in Beacon Hill and if you do not mind spending some time looking through the racks: some really great stuff can be found here! | |
| Friday, December 14, 2007 | |
| Such a fun date restaurant as you can share raw bar and a bottle of champagne. | |

| Monday, December 17, 2007 | |
| Tough to get a reservation, but very worth the wait! | |
| Tuesday, December 18, 2007 | |

| I have been to museums all across the United States and Europe and this is one of the most interesting and compelling that I have ever been to! | |
| Tuesday, December 18, 2007 | |
| A fun bar to head to for low key drinks. Head upstairs after work for a decent happy hour scene M-F. | |
| Wednesday, December 19, 2007 | |
| The best place to go in the city for late night food and a great social scene right when the bars get out! | |
| Wednesday, December 19, 2007 | |
| A great blend of funky and fun dressy pieces and laid back streetwear. | |
| Thursday, December 20, 2007 | |
| Although a longtime Pizzeria Regina devotee, I could not resist the delicious sauce of this pie! | |
| Thursday, December 20, 2007 | |
| Just down the street from my office and I could not be more happy as it has everything from lunch or a much needed bottle of wine after a long day! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |

| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| One of the best places to watch a classic flick in the city. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| A much appreciated change from the football field sized Lowe's or Home Depot! Resourceful, but still a neighborhood place. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| Helpful and friendly staff open to answer questions or give you styling advice. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| One of the secrets to G Spa's success is having such an amazing hair color veteran like Jeffrey Lyle. He remembers every client and knows and accomodates their needs. Boston Magazine even named him best hair colorist in the city! | |
| Friday, January 04, 2008 | |
| Oenephiles rejoice! This is a great wine bar with fantastic food. A little gem in the heart of the Theatre District. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| A great variety of wines ranging in price to accomodate all budgets! Also, has a $20 bottle available for people really in a pich. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| A great store with great finds for the party girl in all of us! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| The bar has a Parisian feel to it as it is long and thin. Fun times! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| A fun place to go and people watch: esp. when there is a breakdancing contest! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| Sebastians is the best salad bar in the city for extensive topping choices and a great freshness factor. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| The Butternust squash gnocchi is the best in the city! A great date restaurant. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| Eastie's best boston sports stop where you can watch all your local boston sports games in the sports lounge area with bar full of fun drinks beers and shooters. surrounded by the music you want to hear. They have 14 pool tables air hockey, foosball and more come and check it out ! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| Great choices of beer on tap. BBQ is decent, but does not measure up to how we do it down south! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| The Barking Crab is one of the most popular places to go for after work drinks during the warmer months. With a live band playing on the porch several days of the week, and great summer beer on tap, the Barking Crab becomes one of my favorite destinations. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| One of my favorite places to eat by my old office. The Greek Chicken Wrap should not be missed. The Thursday special, the enchilada, is to die for if it can be scooped up! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| the International is a great place to have a business lunch or after work drinks. I have also gone to a few private functions there and it is a great place to rent out for a party. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| A classy bar with a great cocktail menu. Can be a very fun scene when there is an event going on at the Garden. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| The service is top notch, the wine list thorough, the menu is innovative and moderately priced. I love Bouchee and would recommend it to anyone who is a lover of French food! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| The chicken and steak burritos are the most amount of food you can imagine getting for $6.50. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| I went here on a quiet Tuesday night with 2 friends. The food is solid and I like the cork covered seats. Not one of the best in the neighborhood, but as it is very new, it is worth giving it a shot. The pizza left more to be desired, but the other entrees and pasta dishes were decent. The upstairs would be a neat venue to rent out for a private party. The cork seats were a cool touch to the dining room. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| One of my favorite brunch spots and a great place for a good bloody mary. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| The perfect place to dine with a fun group. Quite the cocktail crowd on the weekends as well. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| I went here last night with a friend for dinner and sat at the bar. Coda is a warm, inviting, and relaxed spot in the South End. I not only loved thier menu of upscale comfort food (get the mac and cheese with pancetta!) but the exposed brick and music is great too! A great addition to the neighborhood. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| What a wonderful brunch I had here with my friends. We had the restaurant all to ourselves beginning at 10:30, but by the time we left after noon, there was quite the hustle and bustle. The heavenly hash was delicious, however, I would not recommend the tomatillas. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| A great company that is serious about working together with citizens to help them get the best deals possible and make everyone's life a little bit easier. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| This is a fun, relaxing, and high end spot to head to with one or two others, sit at the bar, and order drinks and appetizers if you want to enjoy the experience, but not order an incredibly expensive full dinner. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| A fun place to meet for dinner and drinks after work with friends. Also, a hot spot to watch the Sox and the Celtics as well. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| A great place for after work drinks with friends. Can get very crowded on Thursdays. | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| Picco not only has great pizza and ice cream, but their homemade mac and cheese is so rich, dense, and decadent! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| I am so happy that the Greenway finally opened! It is such a wonderful addition to the city, and makes the area that runs from Chinatown/South Station to North Station so much more attractive! | |
| Sunday, November 09, 2008 | |
| One of the most lively places in the North End to watch the European soccer matches. Popular with the older Italian crowd, young americans, and tourists. | |
