    First time checking out this restaurant I was taking a client out to dinner Parking was fairly easy one block down in the public lobby behind the building or if you could find it on the street It was a Wednesday night, so it wasn’t overly crowded. The atmosphere was very nice. The decor was good. The bartender made a very nice drink. Appetizers were spot on as well as the service and the main courses were delicious and they did not skimp out on the portion size

    We ended up at MIDA on a Monday. They have a special, which is a real value ( five dishes for $80) and more than you can eat, but this allows you to sample different pastas. While some were better than others, all were very good. Nice wine selection and attentive service.

    Branch Line is one of the best restaurants in the Boston Area. The Snap Pea Salad is fantastic. I tried the eggplant parmigiana on Monday and it was sensational. Everything on the menu is delicious. I have eaten at Branch Line many times and it is always GREAT! They also have an excellent selection of beers . Take a walk around the Alexander Center Bio Tech Center while you are there . It is beautiful .
