    It’s always a win at Brassica. The dishes are super creative and staff talk you through the flavors and what to expect. The flavors are amazing and the food is like this nice, warm hug. I don’t know if they already have but the chefs should try out for Chopped, they’d crush it no doubt. Speaking of - amazing staff. The friendliest people and very welcoming. 10/10 wonderful place

    Disappointing meal overall because food was served soggy. Maple syrup and gravy were poured on top of biscuit and waffle prior to serving ruined the texture of both and turned the dishes into something of a pasty glutinous blob.

    Excellent as always! They were out of the brunch fried rice (we were one of the last brunch tables) but our super nice server recommended biscuits and gravy, which I had with tofu instead of chicken, and it was amazinggggg. Very rich, buttery, and flavorful, and the tofu was fantastic. I appreciated the recommendation and was almost glad I didn't get the fried rice. Service is pretty impeccable. Once of my favorite brunch spots in Boston for sure.

    Our party of four chose to order "The Ride," which for $95/person got us eight different small plates plus dessert. Loved everything we ate, but the 23% tip/service charge on top of the tax made the bill a bit steep as we also had drinks.

    This was my long-awaited first visit to Brassica and it did not disappoint! One step in the door and we were greeted by the aroma and visual of a case of fresh donuts. Definitely recommend the brown butter donut! The menu was small enough to be approachable and not overwhelming, but had many options my wife and I struggled to choose between. In the end we went with the chicken and waffles (excellent) and the bean and cheese papusa (incredible). The papusa dish had great texture and was an umami favor bomb in the best and most unexpected way. So so good, truly a dish that makes you dream of your next visit to the restaurant. The breakfast cocktails were also yummy, and the service was great. Welcoming and helpful from the check-in stand to the server to the barista who made us our to-go coffees. My wife and I loved our brunch experience (including the 90s R&B/hip-hop playlist) and look forward to our next visit to Brassica.

    Delicious and creative, as always. The food and drink menus at Brassica are the product of an incredibly thoughtful and open-minded team, who clearly have a talent for trying new combinations and ingredients. The welcome is always warm, and you leave feeling inspired not only by the food, but also by the humanity and artistry behind it. One of the very best places in Boston.

    Brassica is our favorite restaurant in JP. I'd describe it as creative comfort food--always interesting, delicious and perfectly prepared. The staff is fantastic. My only negative is that it is a bit too loud for my taste--but I'm an old guy.

    Great neighborhood restaurant. We had a Delicious meal. Lo mein was very salty and too unctuous for all 4 of us. Otherwise everything else was delish. Lights were too bright but server dimmed them. I was going to put my sunglasses on otherwise. Noise level was high and sometimes had a hard to hear what people were saying. Overall great meal and will be back!

    World-class food in a funky space across the street from Forest Hills subway station. Been coming here since it opened, same amazing (and super rich) food and friendly staff. In addition to the 3 partners/owners, many of the staff have been here since the beginning too. Tip and back-of-the-house fee are included in the bill, we still add a few dollars to it because the folks there are awesome.
