What People Are Saying About Finale

Finale's handsome, softly-lit dining room provides an ideal pre- or post-show spot for couples on a date to the nearby Coolidge Corner Theatre. An overhead demonstration mirror affords a view of the pastry chefs that construct Finale's signature desserts. Young, friendly waiters are pleased to recommend selections from the epic drink list. Dessert is the focus, but there's also a respectable light dinner menu that allows patrons to enjoy a well-rounded meal without getting too full before the sweet stuff. Smart options include the rosemary-rubbed chicken Caesar salad and a Mediterranean pizza. Most diners skip the savory items and dive straight into desserts, like a divine, baked-to-order molten-chocolate gateau or the caramel carnivale (caramel mousse layered between puff pastry and served with fresh fruit in raspberry puree). Advanced sweet tooths should opt for the Temptation for Two, an assortment plate of cakes, gelato and mousse.

My husband and I thought that Finale had a great idea. Where else do you go for just desserts? Unfortunately the execution was awful, most desserts were elegantly but tasted all the same. I think that if they wanted this concept to succeed, they should have made a more expansive menu. Fancy looking, mediocre desserts just aren't going to get me back in there. The price was roughly $30 for two people. Next time try the creperie on Harvard Ave in Coolidge Corner.

I had the miniature cheesecake, it had a slightly light consistency and a flavor to match. Overall it wa pretty decent, though the raspberry adorning the top was a dull color and terrible, I know they don't make the fruit but they should know a ripe berry.

Desserts tasted like something my 12 year old could make from a box of powder with a couple of eggs and the price was way too high!

Know Before You Go:
Don't fret if your diet doesn't allow a sinful slice of cheesecake; there's at least one fruity dessert (e.g. brandied fruits with a refreshing sorbet) available nightly that won't bust your belt.
