   First time at 465 for a preconcert dinner. Service was attentive and all staff was friendly. Very quiet with few diners since it was early, 5 pm. Only complaint was that the rolls were very stale. Otherwise food was delicious and beautifully plated.

   My husband and I went for Sunday lunch between visiting exhibits at the MFA. This is a peaceful restaurant, and nice place for conversation, or meeting friends. The menu is short, but most people should find something they like. (I had the chicken paillard on salad - freshly cooked, tender and healthy, if not too imaginative, while my husband had the individual quiche, also freshly cooked.) The service was outstanding.

   An evening at the MFA is a delight. The food at 465 Bistro is very good. Oddly, the service was not, though the servers were pleasant and well-meaning. For example, dinner was rushed with the main course brought out before we were close to finishing our appetizers, which meant chaos on the table.

   I went to the 465 Bar and Restaurant for brunch before a lecture at 2:00. The atmosphere and ambiance is lovely and perfect for a Sunday afternoon. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and personable. My only reason for lowering my scores for this restaurant is the food: I ordered Crab Benedict--basically Eggs Benedict with crab instead of Canadian bacon. The English muffins were thin, topped with eggs and a very small pile of crab, and placed on a huge pile of baby spinach that overwhelmed the dish. The crab seemed to be from a can rather than fresh. We ordered a side of roasted potatoes that were good.

   They changed from the old restaurant that was there - to tell the truth, the food from the old restaurant was much better. It is still a great option to go toan exhibit and then go upstairs to eat 0 you don't have to move your car, etc. I will continue to go there but hopefully they will upgrade their food.

   This was the perfect place to relax and have a nice light meal before a concert. The service was wonderful, plenty of space between tables so we could carry on a conversation without others listening. It was nice to be in a restaurant where we didn't have to speak loudly to hear each other. The server was so attentive and very sweet. We will be back!

   Although we were surprised by the brunch menu presented on a Sunday, we're glad we stayed. The meal was excellent. Service was attentive. Lovely venue.

   465 Bar and Restaurant was a very soothing experience in the Boston Museum of Fine Art. The beet salad and artic char were delicious. The ambiance is very cool and it was a great time!

    We enjoyed everything about our extended lunch here on a quiet Friday afternoon. The service, food, and drinks were all fabulous, and the atmosphere invites one to linger and relax for as long as one likes. We'll be sure to make this a part of our next museum visit!
