Overrated & Overpriced
3 Star Rating: Average

12/07/2005 Posted by sameerhansen

I've been there three times now and everytime I wonder why I paid so much for mediocre food and service. All fish dishes are overly fishy in flavor (not fresh), the meats are never cooked to order and the wine is obsessively over priced. Every time I have ordered wine, they either bring the wrong one, don't show it to you, open it and then expect you to keep it. Every time. One time the waiter pushed the cork into the bottle. We talked to the manager and he said the wine would be just fine. Oh yeah, parking is impossible. Be prepared to walk.

Pros: Close to Fenway, Nice atmosphere, Large group room

Cons: Poor service, Unfresh food, Difficult parking

Editor's Review

A loyal following of area academics and professional couples flock to the original location of the city's lone French-Cambodian restaurant.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Parking

Good luck finding parking in this heavily residential area (forget about it when the Red Sox are in town). Fortunately, there's an on-site parking lot that is free for lunchtime patrons and costs $7 (valet service) at night.
