Would absolutely recommend. My wife and I had an assortment of the menu items in both drink and food. Everything we tasted was finely crafted. Service was impeccable. Great attention to detail for every item. If I were local to Boston, I'd be a regular at Shore Leave. Looking forward to my next visit.

Great food and service. Our group shared all apps and 5 of the pasta dishes, everything was very good. Tuna crudo and Jonah Crab pasta were the stand outs for our group. Bolognese is solid. highly recommend the creamy espresso martini.
