Visited Eastern Standard for the first time prior to a Red Sox game, GREAT FIND! We got a super table and were greeted by Thomas, the best waiter we've had in months. He had a complete mastery of the drink list, the wine list and the menu, rare these days. Overall experience a "10". I'm an oyster aficionado, and give most restaurant's oysters a 7 or 8. Eastern Standard's were a 10, fresh, cold and clean. Well worth the trip!
Some of the best cocktails in the country, can get quite noisy but generally pleasant ambiance, and consistently excellent food - late night food options (rare in Boston) are delicious and exceptionally reasonable.
A trendy spot. Great Drinks and very good food with ample choices.
Cocktail bar is great!
i tasted my friend's pork chop and it was one of the best dishes i've come across in a while.
