Editorial Review for Caliterra Bar & Grille – by Ken Langdon
In Short
Located in the Hilton Boston Financial District, Caliterra gives classic Italian dishes a northern California make-over. High ceilings, bronze walls, dark furniture and white linens give the restaurant its elegant feel. An inventive, seasonal menu includes staples like the Caliterra surf-and-turf--a filet of beef paired with creamy lobster risotto and a savory tarragon sauce. Decadent desserts include a refreshing lemon cello baba and sinful molten chocolate lava cake.

restaurant week pre fixe menu: appetizer - mussels are very good, smoked salmon are okay. entree - lamb is very good, scallops is also good, the mahi mahi was just ok. dessert - creme brulee was good, chocolate trilogy was NOT supposed to have uncooked rubbery beef tendon in it!!!! not only was there rubbery beef tendon in it, NO ONE CAME TO APOLOGIZE!! the waiter was just trying to cover the evidence. if you would like a chocolate trilogy with a VERY "SPECIAL SURPRISE" in it, then go ahead. i recommend it. they just pretended that nothing happened. geee thanks!!
Pros: most of the food was fairly decent
Cons: the dessert had unexpected rubbery beef tendon in it, no one apologized!

We reserved our reservation on opentable and were extremely disappointed with our entire experience. When we got there there was not a single person in the dining room and only a few patrons at the bar. During our entire meal not a single other table was filled in the dining room (we should have taken the hint and got out when we had the chance). A few patrons came and went in the bar area, but no other diners. The menu is small and over priced. The food was hotel quality at best. The wine list was expansive and priced fairly. The worst part was they never gave us credit for our opentable reservation. After a day of not being "approved" we called to see if they could update the status for us. After speaking with multiple people on multiple occasions our reservation was then marked as "cancelled." We called multiple more times and spoke with managers who could either not help us or would not call back as promised. We finally had to get in touch with opentable who overrode their system and gave us credit. Aside from a mediocre meal, the service and managers were atrocious. There are plenty of other dining options in that area, I would stay clear of this place.
Pros: Good wine list
Cons: Food is over priced and service is awful
