New Fav !!!. One of the best restaurants my boyfriend and I have been to. I think they change the menu every so often, but we got the pork chops with apple cole-slaw and sweet potatoes with peanuts, amazing. Drink menu was great and the house drinks were fabulous. Kind of a small place but thats ok. service was great, a laid back environment with a mixed crowd of tatoos and party dresses. I want to go back now!!

Doesn't Blow My Mind. So I love cheap food more than anyone I know, and you really can't beat $2 tacos at a nice restaurant. I think this weekly special is fun, but the problem is the tacos aren't that good. I have tried every kind (even the lobster), but have never been overly impressed. This place is very hyped so I feel like all of its food should live up, even the discounted version. Also, $2 taco night never ends up being a cheap dinner because the drinks are crazy expensive and pretty small. Finally, everyone raves about the pajama brunch, which I agree is a really cute idea, but I have never loved the breakfast food either. I'm sure they have their good dishes, but I think their two most popular specials could be better.

Try Sunday morning brunch; Saturday night never ended.. My boyfriend and I try to go to Tremont 647 for brunch whenever we can. We've also tried $2 Taco Tuesday which has great drinks but the food is just alright. The pyjama brunch is lots of fun - bottomless Illy coffee, extremely cool waiters and waitresses, and great food. I always get Andy's Huevos Rancheros, which I would strongly recommend, although on occasion, the rice and black beans are a little on the crunchy side. In addition, we always have a pop tart and it is always fantastic, since the pastry chef is unbelievably good. Also, if you are a regular patron sometimes you get to sample things which aren't on the menu...

amazing neighborhood hangout. i've been hanging out at tremont 647 since the end of the summer. i've gotten really friendly with the staff and theyre all great! brandon and bonnie (bartenders) honestly make some of the most delicious and wellbalanced drinks i've ever had.. everything from their amazing pineapple martini to their raspberry lime gimlet, to dirty martinis. their wine list is all organic and the bartenders are very knowledgeable. they infuse all of their own vodkas, and offer seasonal and specialty martinis created by the staff. the food is usually pretty good... brunch is definitely a high point!! while i have had some less-than-spectacular food experiences, the staff will not gladly fix whatever is wrong until you are satisfied. most recently i tried the while mushroom gnocci, and it was incredible! (which was surprising because the kitchen was about to close in 5 minutes).

overall, if you're in the south end and looking for a neighborhood hangout, this is the place to be. even as a straight chick (in a serious relationship) i love coming here because i don't have to worry about sleazy guys hitting on me!! the food is creative and interesting, and the staff can't be beat!

also, i recently found out that they recycle everything, have a compost out back, and their wine list is entirely organic! they also just launched a new vegan menu and are soon starting a late-night menu (which is great because as of now the kitchen closes at 10). they use a lot of local and grassfed meats, and buy local and sustainable!! yay!!

Great PJ Brunch. We went here over the summer for the PJ brunch with another couple and our (combined) 4 toddlers. Food and service were both excellent. Our server was very attentive, and they even gave us our own private room in the back (although with 4 small kids, I can understand why!). Food really was quite delicious, and all very reasonable. We'll definitely be back.
