    We were going to a show afterwards so were pressed for time. Our server was gracious and helpful, and we did get everything with plenty of time to get to the show. The food was excellent, if on the expensive side (which seems to be happening across Boston). My only complaint is that the menu was not available on the restaurant's website, and the menu on OpenTable was out of date.

    Given this is located in W hotel, in Boston's theatre district, the restaurant is overpriced w/poor food. We have eaten here before and the food was acceptable. Last night, with a new and very limited menu, the food was overcooked and bordered on tasteless. The hotel cannot seem to decide whether it wants a good, full service restaurant, or just two bars. We will be looking at other restaurants when we go the theatre in Boston. Very disappointing.

    Great atmosphere. Close to the theaters. Good beer selection. Frosty mugs were nice but I’d be surprised if there was 12 oz of beer in them. Food was very good. Service was a bit slow but they didn’t have many servers so that may have the reason for the wait. Overall good experience. Would go again for a pre-show bite and drink.

    Dinner before a show at the Wilbur. Food was pretty good, we had the Buddha Bowl and the Tremont Burger. Burger was a cooked a bit past medium but still delicious. Buddha bowl was very flavorful. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Lemongrass Lemon Drop cocktail rocked, not a huge on-tap beer selection but what they have is good. Would definitely hit this place up again.

    Our waitress did not appreciate us requesting to split the check. We asked for it and stated four ways - one entree each and two of us had a single drink so nothing too complicated. She told us we should’ve told her before she put our orders in. I’ve literally never been told that so I was quite confused at first. Overall service could’ve been better but food was great, maybe a bit pricey.

    The food is not restaurant quality. Not not as good as I’d like: not restaurant quality. We ordered 2 appetizers to start and a drink each. We then didn’t see our waitress for another 45 minutes. The appetizers we got were the truffle fries and Brussels sprouts. The fries were clearly frozen and had obviously been microwaved and the Brussels sprouts came out soggy will no flavor. Once we were able to flag down our waitress we left. Just terrible.

    We ordered Bites-appetizers right before going to a show. The crab dip we ordered had the plastic from the cream package in it. The waiter got right on it and made the manager aware of the issue. It was a kind of funny. Otherwise, the food, service and atmosphere was great. Will definitely go back

    It doesn’t really present as a restaurant. It is more of a casual dining hall. The menu was decent but the service was incredibly slow and we couldn’t even get a drink unless we went and sat in the lobby which we found really odd since it advertises itself as a brunch spot. Who goes to brunch and doesn’t have cocktails?

    As I indicated, everything was very nice. Service was OK. We ordered two drinks one came the second one didn’t, so we had to ask. It was brought right away so everything was acceptable however, Two of us got the shrimp stew. It was six shrimp in tomato sauce. It really wasn’t that good especially for the price. We also would’ve liked to see more food choices.
