The menu changes seasonally, but there are a few items that remain because they are so delicious! Like the Baked Cod with mussels , bacon and chowder nage.

Stephen Mundt

The food here is amazing. I had the blue cod but shared the beef tournadoes and lobster ravioli with my dinner party. All fantastic. Only complaint is service was sporadic. Food is worth the stop.

Nothing beats a great burger ! Catalyst serves theirs with cheddar , bacon , caramelized onions , house-made ketchup , mustard and aioli on a roasted tomato brioche bun with a side of fries . Read more

Margot Mazur

The best service I have ever had the pleasure to encounter. And the food is out of this world.

Boston.com

Try the beautifully roasted cod in a refined chowder , seared scallops with pickled pumpkin , tender and flavorful tournedos of beef topped with taleggio ravioli . Read more

This place is very popular, so make a reservation ! Then you'll know why :) Great food, service and ambiance.

Menu will include options like a spice crusted hiramasa served with orange-yuzu syrup and cucumber radish salad , and an “Around the Bend” farm egg served with salt cod and smoked bacon . Read more

Our critic dug the "Georgia candy roaster" - heirloom squash tortellini in cream sauce - and the Tournedos of beef . They also have top-rate bread ...with sea salt butter . Just don't fill up on it... Read more

Entrance is from the north side of the street. If you're coming from Kendal it is around back. "300" on the side you see is an office building which is not connected on the inside

Elena

I've only enjoyed the bar area and menu, but it's fantastic. Great bartenders and a lovely small bar menu that's full of deliciousness in a gorgeous atmosphere.

Todd Hamilton

Food was very good, especially enjoyed the pate . Strange space and location, feels more like a hospital entrance than a restaurant , but would definitely recommend

Hailey Crowel

Great place for happy hour . Love the burger and the cheese board . And the wine list !

Dan Roberts

Excellent (though a little expensive ) food. Lunch is a reasonable deal. The burger is pretty good ...

Joseph Smarr

They have a rare cask strength Whistle Pig . Worth the extra money, wow.

Sam S

Delicious food. I was here with a group but the quality was still high. So, so good.

Kim Hébert

bar dining = + -- "with a long granite-topped counter that snakes through the space and offers one of the area’s best spots for spur-of-the-moment meals." -- per BOSTONMAG

Rich Thorne

Try the Pho : a blend of cucumber vodka , lime , basil , cilantro , and sriracha . Perfection in a chilled glass .

Joseph Smarr

Ask for Jason at the bar and give him some room to maneuver. He really knows his cocktails !

Priscilla @shescookin

Highly recommend the "The Undecided" cocktail - Grey Goose Pear , St. Germain, and splash of sparkling wine . Very refreshing, not too sweet.

Lisa

Parking ! They fully validate parking in the 800 Technology Square Garage - a 2 min walk away!

Joe Schutt

The Chicken Liver Mousse is to die for. Ask for extra bread .

Joseph Smarr

They know their whiskeys at the bar !

Rhonda Woods

Pretty much anything you eat you will enjoy. The skate was amazing.

Geoffrey Brailsford

Don't leave until you've tried the Butterscotch Passion Fried Cake - OH MY!

Boston Magazine

When rustic and industrial meet French-style finesse, good things happen, most of the time, at this new kind of brasserie . Read more

Get the tempura . Your stomach will thank you.

Root beer float (with blueberries !) awesome!

SNOCRU

Well appointed restaurant , but the chefs need to lay off the salt if they're going to keep serving food. Holy shit was the fish salty
