Bistro popolari a Faneuil Hall

It was a Saturday night and Eastern Standard was the place to be! Excellent food (carrot ginger soup is a must and swordfish with coconut rice special should be a regular on the menu!) and attentive service (we had a few requests as it was a business dinner) made for a great experience. Love the cocktail menu, variety on the dinner menu and fun, festive atmosphere. Oh, and easy parking. Will definitely be back.

A lovely experience at an early dinner here on a busy Saturday night was perfect on a very cold evening. Thank you! We are new in Charlestown and it’s so nice to discover a local place that serves excellent food. The scallops were big and juicy and sitting on a delicious bed of Brussel sprout hash. The swordfish was cooked perfectly and lied on a risotto mushroom base. Wow! All superb!

Boston is filled with amazing sites, history and cuisine options but I was glad to have chosen Boston View and Beacon to celebrate my anniversary. Amazing night view and delicious food with very polite staff.

I have not been to Petit Robert for a couple of years and the food and service remain the same at high quality. My friend and I had a wonderful lunch. The only minor criticism was that one of the waitresses was loud. I could hear her from 3 tables away. Given the cozy dining room it could seem a little jarring. Her service was good. It is just the awareness of noise level she needs to become more aware of. My Fromage salad was light and tasty as I expected. Since it was not crowded, they made sure to place us a couple of tables away from other patrons. Very thoughtful. I will go back again in 2025!

Food was excellent, group got buffalo chicken dip and hummus plate to start — both great — and a burger, beyond burger, chef’s special pasta, chicken parm, and steak frites. Everyone enjoyed their meals with no complaints. Service however was not great. Waitress was not present or sincere. Otherwise great meal in a great atmosphere with lovely Christmas decorations!
