Our meal was outstanding! The burrata caprese salad was gorgeous and so delicious. The halibut special was amazing and full of flavor. They recommended a glass of wine and even brought over a taste for me to try first. The service is excellent. There is so much attention to details here. The vibe is wonderful and inviting!

Camille's Restaurant

Camille's is just wonderful; a most civilized place for lunch. It is like a private club: subdued, elegant feeling with extraordinary food (I can only comment on the glorious scallops with asparagus risotto that I've had 3 times) with a wait staff that is superior. They give you time to order and time to eat. It's a gift to be able to eat there.

Our craft cocktails were strange and new but very delicious. Appetizers of fresh little necks served in an ice tray that’s in the bar was fun. Dinner of halibut and aromatic seafood stew was amazing. Our server was professional and conversational. We enjoyed dessert of pistachio cake snd the frozen custard special. It was the perfect way to start the New Year

Very good food and great prices for Boston! Seemed like a gen z place for brunch--so if you don't mind a younger crowd, there's some good food waiting. I wouldn't say it's truly real southern food, but it's good!

Our server was very professional and helpful. We really enjoyed two fish dishes. Definitely recommended the whole dish risotto. But keep in mind if you are not confident of de-boning a whole fish, might just ask the server to do it for you. Ambiance is great for dates. Make sure you make reservations ahead.

Siena is a nice dining experience, food & wait staff are great. My only issue is the hostess’s, reserved patrons should not have to wait especially when the restaurant is less than half full? Maybe hire a more mature staff.
