Reviews for Bar Mezzana in Boston, MA
I got a Chicken under a brick and it was really delicious! It didn't seem a lit but by the time I finished I was feeling... satisfied. Also got a bellini that was well made. My luck was that I just showed up and there was a spot. Definitely will goback when in Boston again. Read more
Amazing Italian restaurant! The menu is small, but every dish is quite delicious and has something for everyone. The staff are... friendly, and we had no problems with any of our food or drinks. Read more
Amazing Italian food. Almost everything is made fresh daily. The drinks are amazing and well worth it to just grab a couple. The... bar menu is nice and on the cheaper end to just hang out and grab a quick bite. Read more
The lobster pasta is absolutely fantastic! Pasta cooked perfectly al dente, plenty of lobster that was incredibly fresh and... tender, and the sauce perfectly complemented the lobster without being too salty or overwhelming. We also got a burrataappetizer (bread ordered separately) which was also delicious. Fast service, restaurant is quite large and not too loud even atdinner rush. Read more
The place look nice and give the impression of a good restaurant. The menu is simple and not a large choice. Very selective. The... main courses are large enough so we didn't took appetizers. I took swordfish that was cook over and very spicy. Swordfish fishwhen it is overcooked become very dry, thats why the waiter should ask how they want it cooked. They were kind enough to changeand bring me a medium, just perfectly cooked without all the spices. But the most important thing is that although they haveplenty of stuff, the service is slow. Time that we wait out main courses was too long. Even the desert took so long to get it.Sorry, I would like to rate higher but the service and waiting time should be improved. Read more
Italian food is delicious. We loved the pasta, mozzarella, wine. Service was quick. Only issue we had was food was salty, my... father has tolerance, waiter offered re cooking but we didn't have time. We really appreciated that. Even I needed water aftereating. Read more
One of my favorite Italian restaurants in the city. I ordered their Paccheri, which is their lobster pasta dish and affogato for... dessert. Amazing food and great service and will definitely go again! Read more
Contemporary Italian place with average appetizers and great entrées. Recently took a visit on a Friday night where we found... the place quite empty. We were initially impressed with their intimate atmosphere and prompt and professional service. However,the first few dishes were a bit disappointing. Shima aji crudo had an overpowering citrus flavor that shadowed the richfattiness of the fish. Similarly, grilled octopus plate had an overwhelming amount of parsley that ruined the overall balance offlavors. Burrata came in a tiny plate, but honey, fried rosemary, and roasted chestnut toppings gave it a nice aroma and flavorthat we liked. Although the transition into the pasta and the entrées weren't as smooth as we hoped, the quality of the dishesthat came afterwards was amazing. Paccheri came with a hefty price tag, but the subtle lobster flavor was a good pairing withthe green onions and the chili flakes. My favorite was the duck confit agnolotti which had a good amount of sweetness andacidity from the fig and the balsamic glaze. Chicken under a brick was also extremely tender, and the nutty toppings and creamypolenta were nice sides to accompany it with. Overall, Bar Mezzana wasn't one of the best contemporary Italian restaurants I'vebeen to in Boston, but I would highly recommend trying their pastas and entrées. Read more
