Average experience for a premium Boston price. Impossible to park close by, Service was inconsistent, we had to get an additional plate and silverware ourselves. Food was good but not exceptional. Bolognese was a soup, as italian, it was disappointing. Wine served in home style glasses warms up in no time. Prices should be reduced by 30% and staff should get some formation and alignment.
Food is great. Service is horrible. Two people at my table had their food and we were waiting a while before the other two received their food. Two bartenders, no special cocktails and drinks also took forever. Not what you would expect for prices or from Barbara Lynch.
Typical pains of a new restaurant are evident here and is to be expected when a new team is trying to find their flow. I found The food quality, preparation and execution to be excellent. The drink program seems to be a work in progress so I will probably stick to the decent wine choices on my next visit. All the Barbra Lynch controversy aside, I think this will be a great seasonal fine dining option once the bugs have been worked out.
