Just a great vibe at the Beehive. We went for the first time on Thanksgiving. Great food (and generous portions) friendly and efficient service and fantastic live music. We will be back for sure!

Our family dined here on Thanksgiving. The restaurant staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great holiday. Two of us chose the turkey dinner (which was plentiful and delicious). And four ordered filets off the regular menu. We enjoyed appetizers, dinner, and desert. We were not rushed and had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

The food was delicious and I loved the ambience. The cocktails were a bit pricey at $16-$20 but that seems to be the standard here in Boston. If you want to have a romantic and quiet evening I do recommend Terra. Our waiter also gave us a sweet cream gelato to celebrate my fiancé and I’s engagement! It was a great time!
