Best Restaurants with Private Rooms in Brookline

Was a big fan of this retuarant group's Temple Bar which closed much to my disappointment a while back making a visit to Russell House very much anticipated. This restarant didnt disapoint. I arrived early and enjoyed a few drinks at the bar. The bar had an exccellent selection of cocktails, craft beers and high end liquors not found everywhere (Pappy Van Winckle). The bar is upstairs and once we finished and hit our reservation time slot we went downstairs for dinner. The menu was creative, the portions modest and the food very good. We had a few appetizers then our main course. The staff was attentive and the atmosphere was vibrant but not excessively loud. I very much enjoyed the experience and look forward to a return.

I have eaten here many times and Francis, our server has always been a pleasure to be with. My guest had a bunch of food requests, and she handled it with grace and made my client feel welcome. The kitchen honored every request wonderfully. I enjoyed the crab cake, the view and the service. Will be back!

Excellent service, food good. Sat near the front window for more Spring sunshine. For lunch, I don’t generally want a dark space. I love the main dining room more for dinner. Can’t wait for the patio option!

Always great food, drinks, and service! A neighborhood gem.

Great meal. Our server Alejandro was wonderful! Food is very well executed.
