Al S: "Some of the most beautiful and picturesque scenery in all of Boston, especially in winter and spring. Check out the Ducklings, the Japanese Lantern, the main bridge and the Good Will Hunting bench."
Ilana Eides: "Staff is not only incredibly knowledgeable but equally as friendly. Excellent wine and craft beer selection. Frequent wine tastings- dangerous for someone who lives across the street."
Reserve: "A raw bar devoted to the good stuff takes center stage, with oysters, shrimp, scallops, uni and more. Plus an entire section of the menu dedicated to crudo and ceviche? We’ll be here all night."
William Toll: "Amazing. Every single time I come here. Mix a cocktail, starter, small plate and two entrees with your significant other and be prepared for a flavor explosion."
Stephanie H: "Love this place, opened Dec. '14. Great bar scene/drinks (get Alex the bartender to make you something!) and delicious tapas. Try the squid ink fideos (but not on a 1st date), spicy eggplant!"
Leena Bondale: "Just amazing! I had to wait in the line for 30 mins ( that tells u how good it is) and still it was worth it. I am vegetarian and they hv good vegetarian options."
Nan Greer: "This is an amazing concept that actually works! CLEAN, ORGANIC food that is organised in a salad bar set up. order what you'd like in your salad and then cheerful and hip salad masters toss it ..."
BU Today: "The oldest public arboretum in North America, this spot offers stunning landscapes in every season. With over 15,000 plants spread over 265 acres, the Arnold Arboretum is a sprawling gem in JP."
riley starship: "beautiful park with scenic views. I've been looking for a good, T-accessible natural space for a long walk since moving to Boston; I'm so glad I finally found one."
Elyse Estrada: "Find a small publication bound in leathery light gray material. Titled Narrative of the Life of James Allen, it is a well-preserved book bound in the skin of its author."
Kaitlin: "If you love books, take a free Art & Architecture tour, offered several times throughout the week. It's such a beautiful place full of history, worth taking a look!"
