About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Lively
  • Neighborhood gem
Located in the heart of South Boston, Lincoln is a classic American tavern that offers guests a welcoming combination of home-spun, American fare alongside a wide variety of rustic, wood-fire-grilled specialties.

Built with the intention of being a comfortable meeting spot for locals looking to share stories at the end of their long day, Lincoln draws inspiration from it’s surrounding, hard-working, and uniquely American neighborhood.

Revitalizing a nearly forgotten West Broadway space that at one time housed the area’s only department store, Lincoln feels nostalgic. It’s open-air, tiled-floor cafe, grande bar, and soaring, original tin ceilings remind us of a time when dining halls and supper clubs were a way of life.

    Our server was rude. She came over repeatedly towards the end of our meal. We ordered drinks and lots of food, but it was clear she just wanted us out. We were there less than an hour before the harassment began. The only time she was even remotely pleasant was when she brought our check. Will not return, especially with so many options nearby.

    Always a great experience at Lincoln. The food is so consistently great! We got the sliders, wings, and a couple pizzas. Everything was perfect!

    The service was very slow and my pizza unfortunately came out with four raw eggs. Not undercooked, which I actually enjoy, but raw and translucent enough to make you sick. When I sent it back, there was no apology. It was also my birthday, which I noted in the reservation. We will not be returning.

    First time visiting from Cape Cod. It took us longer than expected but when we called to let them know we would be late, they were very accommodating. Once we got there, everyone was super friendly and appreciated that we came from far. Food and the service was excellent. Already told some friends who live nearby to try out!! Thank you!!

    Party of 8 we were there for brunch. Interesting menu choices. Some ordered breakfast foods, others had burgers/sandwiches. Lively atmosphere, service was mostly on point, but they did forget one side salad which was quickly replaced with a full sized one. Would definitely return; probably a fantastic venue to watch a big game

    Have been to Committee many times for Brunch but first time for Dinner . I understand the concept but the salad selection especially a Horiiatiko should offer more than a tablespoon. The portions are small and cold! Greek food is meant to be shared and this was definitely not an option for us. Each plate came 20 minutes at a time . So timing was an issue and no the restaurant was. Not at capacity.
