Rick & Violetta are awesome and the specials are truly a value for the $$! The beers change frequently and there's always a reason to visit.
I've had their "Scholar Bowl" three times in a row and it's always amazing. They marinate the steak to perfection, cook everything really well , and make perfect flavor bombs. ????

Oh my goodness, is their shepherd's pie the definition of comfort food . Super flavorful; perfect paired with a Guinness on a cold night.
Rick is my favorite neighborhood bartender in Boston. There's nothing like someone who's starting to pour your usual brew when he sees you walk in the door. Also, don't sleep on the nachos !!!

They have a huge beer list , and being a college pub it's quiet during the holidays.
