   We chose the Artisan Bistro for my milestone 60th birthday dinner and it was spectacular! Everyone we encountered was welcoming and eager to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was amazing! Hats off to the chef!

   Lovely place to dine, however very expensive for relatively basic cuisine. The ingredients, service, and ambiance were all however phenomenal.

   EXCELLENT ON ALL LEVELS! Bartender, Marvin, is sooooo welcoming, helpful, friendly and professional. What a treat! Sorry I cannot recall the waiters name :((. He was lovely! Attentive, accomodating , friendly and professional, as well. Can't say enough about our experience. Will certainly make this top on my list!

   Great calm ambience super easy to chat without raising voices. Very kind and friendly servers. Food was very nicely done. The hotel is very welcoming whether you’re staying there or not and there’s lovely lounge with a fireplace just past the entrance. Take a quick right and you’re in the restaurant. The street-facing windows allow you to can people watch. The food is pricey but hey, it’s in the Ritz and you can hang out for a while. Conveniently located a four-minute walk from to the theater district and a 2-minute walk to a large movie theater for a fun night out. Right near the the T.

   Good good- not great- steak tips tough. Not worth the money. Tables dirty- waiter rude and inattentive.

   My husband and I split the pea and asparagus salad and we both had the chicken. We also ordered the brussel sprouts with orange glaze. The food was delicious and well prepared. It was our anniversary so the restaurant brought us a complimentary chocolate mousse cake to split for dessert. They gave us a nice seat by the window and the service was impeccable. My husband ordered a glass of pinot grigio and I ordered a glass of rosé. Both nice pours. Location was perfect for the Boston Opera House where we attended the show after dinner. Would definitely recommend if you're heading there for a show.

    Service was friendly and professional. We felt very welcomed. The restaurant ambiance was pleasing and warm. The food was absolutely outstanding. We had scallops with bacon and barley, and asparagus and peas salad with salmon that had perfectly done crispy skin. The menu had several great selections. Perfect location. Definitely will plan to go back.

    We had not eaten here since pre-pandemic times. If anything, the food was even better than we had remembered. The mussels were excellently prepared; the broth was beautifully seasoned with fennel slices. The wine list was well chosen. All in all, a great meal.

    The Ritz used to be a fashionable and good place to dine--looks like that is no longer true. Very limited and rather uninteresting menu. The only reason we would go there again is the use up gift certificates that we have been given for it. Myrid better restaurants surround it, most less expensive.

    Overpriced for the quality of the food. Food was good, but equal to what one would find at a more moderately priced, average restaurant. Wait staff left dishes, glasses and cheese board on the table throughout dinner. Not attentive. Given the reputation of the Ritz-Carlton brand I would have expected much better service and much better food. Drinks were exceedingly overpriced as well. Was a disappointing experience.

    The restaurant was beautiful and quiet. The service was wonderful. The food was incredibly disappointing, especially for the price. We had the scallops, which was undercooked, and the Alaskan char, that was bland and tasteless. I would recommend this as a place to grab drinks (again, service and setting were excellent) but would not recommend for food.

    The atmosphere is low key and it’s in the Ritz so the lobby and seating areas are lovely. The service was excellent, the food was delicious. We had a graduation to celebrate and our waiter brought a special complementary “congratulations dessert” to the graduate. The price was expensive: $320.00 for 4 people, plus we added a 20% tip. Overall, it was a positive experience. We wondered if the cost was keeping customers away because they only had three tables the entire evening.

    Our dinner would have been very enjoyable except that we were seated in the back room with 2 other large tables. As is often the case, the large tables became very loud to the point that my husband and I could not even have a conversation. The upsetting part is that there were open tables in the other area (bar) of the restaurant where the noise level was manageable. The waiter was trying his best but was very busy with the large tables. Management might want to be a little more conscientious of the seating. The food was delicious.

    Yummy Bolognese. Was a special on the menu that night and it was very good. Menu itself was rather limited and I was kind of regretting picking it until our waiter told us about the Bolognese. That save the day. I might try it again when going to the theater on the chance that they were just having an off night. The decor also left me a little cold--a bit too contemporary for my taste. Reminded me of an old style diner rather than a Ritz restaurant.

    Convenient to the theaters and public parking. Menu was more limited than the website indicated, and descriptions were not clear/accurate re ingredients. I had the escarole Caesar, added grilled and marinated chicken breast (very good). Dressing was a little bland. The addition of peanuts to the salad was a surprise but tasty. They do ask about allergies, but I would not have thought to mention a peanut allergy if I had one, because who expects peanuts in a Caesar salad? The portions for the other dishes (pasta) seemed small. The service settings were incomplete (missing pieces of utensils in the napkin); the table was sticky. Overall could use a thorough sprucing up in a few areas.

    We arrived at a very quiet time on a Tuesday evening. The waiter was very prompt and explained the specials and our questions on the menu very well. We were served quickly and the food was excellent. We went there before going to the theatre so I would recommend this because it is close and a comfortable place to eat and drink.
