The first comment by Saccades is incredibly misleading. Power lunch at Bambara is fantastic. $15 for app, lunch , cookie and coffee . Dinner is great and drinks are fantastic. Worth your time.
award winning ribs for $1 each every monday, $17 power lunch includes an appetizer , entree, to-go coffee , and a cookie , half off apps during happy hour on the weekdays between 4-6
The warm chocolate cake on the dessert menu is AMAZING! Idk how they make the passion fruit ice cream so flavorful, but it is definitely worth it
Really good food, just small portions and expensive . It was also a little quiet in there on a Saturday night. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to all dietary needs .
The appetizers I had were practically life changing -- mini lobster rolls and short rib arancini . Definitely on the pricier side though.
Excellent food. We live in the neighborhood and go here for a treat. And there is almost never a wait!
Good service . The food lost quality since the last visit. I am a bit disappointed..... The cheese plate was the best plate of the night!
Happy Hour specials are a great value . Restaurant located in the Hotel Marlowe.
It's called "fried squid " on the menu but don't worry, it's actually calamari .
Gluten free friendly . Try the scallops or seared tuna if you like good seafood .
Power Lunch for $16 is a great deal for app, entree, cookie , and coffee . Tuna Tartare is a must....
Request Wagner, get the tuna tartare and check out the lobby fireplace . Scallops were a great dinner choice.
Their power hour 4pm-6pm specials are amazing! $3 buttermilk fried chicken and herb French fries !
Tasty! Had a company dinner here and enjoyed the menu.
Great late night menu,... inexpensive . Nice atmosphere including the staff .
Tuna tartare is a great afternoon snack .
Great Lobster Sliders
Good food!
Great food, cool atmosphere, and Patrick at the bar is a genuinely good guy.
Consistently great food and love the organic angle.
Lobster sliders
Excellent twist on a Manhattan .
2 dollar appetizers during happy hour :)
To be honest everything was just a little mediocre both on the service and food side.
Food is fine, but something is wrong the service. Couldn’t get water. Couldn’t get second drink. Maybe they just don’t like me.
Nothing healthy on the menu! The grilled striped bass sounds OK, right? Sorry, it's bathed in cream sauce :-(
Love the bar food at Happy hour
Hot & dirty martini !
the grilled cheese with tomato soup is quite excellent!
Nothing that we ordered. Very limited menu. Mediocre service.. Disappointing.
Food is absolutely awful. Possibly the worst risotto I've ever had. No thanks.
Go elsewhere for dinner - worse than disappointing food in a hotel that's otherwise pretty nice.
Delicia de lugar... Atendimento maravilhoso e comida delicia, csfé da manha vale a pena a panqueca de banana , e jantar tem uma entrada de pãozinho com lagosta excelente !!!
Love the Christmas themed drinks! Apparently so did the rest of the hotel guests, this place was BUSY! Nice to have another option in addition to Bambara for a pre-dinner drink. @kimpton - Tom Fortier
The oreo cheesecake is delicious! the bbq burger is really good. We tried to get a table around 7-8 PM, it was a 45 min wait to get a table! Go earlier. - Cathrine Johansen
The Hummus & Naan is really good, get the charred avocado alogside it - Paull Young
So many different types of things to keep the kids entertained! Butterflies were really cool too - Eric Werthner
Food court is awesome, and you can't beat the location. Inexpensive shuttle to Kendall/MIT to explore even more! Great mid range shops and the bigger stores you're looking for like Sears and Best Buy. - Madeline Anderson
Best apple service! Fantastic genius bar crew! - Antoine Cromback
