Love this place! Lily is so awesome, so you're very lucky if she's there when you go and sit at the bar! The food is great, will always be my go to, since I spent my 21st birthday there! The food is incredible, 10 out of 10 and I recommend the steak tips or truffle fries! The blood orange martini is what my fiancé and I go there for the most!
One of the best brunch spots in Back Bay. The food is amazing, and the service is on point. Reservation is highly recommended as this place gets really busy on the weekends. You can customize your Bloody Mary in various ways and can even get a slider on top. We will definitely be back and make this place a usual stop when in the area for food or drinks.
Bartender was absolutely amazing at the downstairs bar. My friend and I both have dietary restrictions and between the two of us we should probably not ever try to go out to eat... But he helped us make accommodations and find something delicious! I had the rice bowl with tofu and she got the brick chicken with polenta. Both were really good! Whispering angel Rose was a good pair for both. This was good redemption from my terrible experience at their dedham location. I trust again and will certainly go back to this Met bar!
The croque monsieur is probably the best sandwich I've ever had in my life.
Good place for lunch at a reasonable price with great service. The burgers and fries are good and the clam chowder is decent. Nothing is amazing but you also won’t leave disappointed. I would definitely come back. Pictured here is the clam chowder and the Paris burger.
Perfect for brunch! The Nutella stuffed French toast are to die for and the “make your own Bloody Mary” concept is awesome. The acoustics in this place aren’t great and when we went here with large party we couldn’t understand each other that well. The service was also a bit hectic but overall the food was great and we had a good time.
Not bad, had a brunch menu when we were there. Service was okay, our waitress wasnt around much but it was fairly busy.
Cool layout, on a few floors/levels and a patio/outdoor are. The lobster roll was outstanding.
The ambience is nice and the food was pretty decent. I ordered a LA burger and it was in a good size. Good place to hang out when you are around new burry street.
Avocado toast with burrata cheese. Finger lickin good. But I’m all seriousness, I’ve been to this bar a few times and usually just go for cocktails. No complaints on the bar service and flavor of the cocktails - my go-to is usually the gin and tonic but as you can see, their bloody’s are a good option for Sunday funday. Last time I went I also got the avocado toast - while I usually won’t order food I can make myself, I gave this one a try. The burrata cheese was a game changer to this easy dish and the cheese sprinkled on top was an excellent addition. If you’re looking to grab a drink and eat a snack, I just gave you two perfect options. Their menu has phenomenal looking options and have never ordered something I didn’t enjoy. Brunch 👍🏼 drinks 👍🏼 snacks and small plates 👍🏼 for more on Boston foods visit @hereforthef00d on instagram.

MET Back Bay, a restaurant by Kathy Sidell is located in the heart of Boston’s posh Back Bay neighborhood, MET Back Bay occupies an historic 1877 brick townhouse on the corner of Newbury and Dartmouth Streets. The space has been meticulously renovated and is modern, elegant and comfortable while paying homage to the classic style and timeless beauty of the building and surrounding neighborhood. MET Back Bay’s menu blends new American cooking with contemporary continental cuisine and embraces quintessential New England ingredients.
The lox and bagel tower is an excellent choice for two people. The multi tier tower is impressive with plenty of sliced tomato, cucumber and onions. There were some capers and salmon roe as well. The only let down is the bagels were small and hard. When I requested an extra bagel it was much larger and better quality. The three cream cheese spreads adds to the decadence. Service was good.
Hands down, one of the best burgers I've had in Boston. Consistency and doneness were just right and the presentation was top notch. All around, the food experience was very pleasant. Wait staff were very attentive as well. The only downside were the door/host staff who seemed to exhibit an oddly unwelcoming and unprofessional demenour; they leave people waiting for a table without feedback for far too long (even though we arrived on time for our reservation, we were not seated until 15 or so minutes later) - otherwise the expereice was pleasant and once again... The food is great.
Much bigger than it appears from the street, The Met Back Bay is a great place for brunch. It offers a variety of tasty dishes, ample portion sizes, along with a craft beers, wines and trendy cocktails. The service is very good, even while full, though the noise level is too high for comfortable conversation.
A reliable and tasty brunch spot. The menu is a bit overpriced for what it is, however, I would definitely go back because what’s life on a budget anyways? This photo is of my hot chocolate flight - fun but would not recommend.
Tables were full but the downstairs was seat yourself and same menu. Never had a bad meal here! Breakfast burrito was great.
I came here for brunch and the food and drinks were amazing. I had the breakfast pizza for a starter (delicious) and then the Met Slam which was HUGE. The drink was En Vie La Rosé. The one thing I will say is on Sundays they start serving alcohol at 11. I waited it out.
High quality cocktails and elevated pub food. Yes this is a 'chain' or sorts but every time I've gone, it's exceeded my expectations.
Get the cheese board and a burger or show up for brunch. You won't be disappointed.
Nice brunch spot within walking distances of the Copley hotels.
