Daedalus Restaurant

Great atmosphere to grab drinks and enjoy the deck. But, $11 for 4 mediocre buffalo chicken tenders seemed a bit ridiculous and the waitresses acted a bit too entitled for my personal liking.
Giacomo's Ristorante - Boston

Food was pretty good but seriously I received the worst service I have EVER had! It was literally a stressful dinner service. The waiter came over and said 'go' to prompt us to order. Interesting. Then I asked if they had fusilli and he told me to look at the menu on the wall. He literally threw the thrown together Caesar salad on the table and it knocked up against my glass. Rude. Uncomfortable. I get it that the food is pretty good but service, and feeling somewhat waited on , does count! Go elsewhere!! You can find comparable Italian anywhere in the north end.

Came to meet up with some friends for pints, and pig pieces. We arrived at around 6:30, got seated by 7. Enjoyed two Founders Porters, which went down farrrr too easily. My fellow pig eaters this night were all friends from boy scouts. We're pretty familiar with the late night snack of pepperoni, cheese and crackers. But this blew everything out of the water. (Of course it did, you're paying 5 dollars for a small serving a meat.) Let's see...we ordered the prosciutto galloni, hot soppressata, speck, the chicken liver mouse, and something that was wrapped in pig ear, and one other meat. For cheeses we ordered the manchego, the stilton, the four corner cheddar, fuzzy twig (a goat and cow blend) and one other. AMAZING. We also got a fig pizza. PERFECT. I only give four stars because of the price. It's expensive...for a grad student. You'll get to learn a lot about meat and cheese...always important. Nice touches: your check is delivered in a moleskine notebook. The wallpaper in the bathrooms is Far Side cartoons!

I really liked this place when it first opened but the last few times I've been the drinks were 70% ice (even when I asked them to go light on the ice.) I hope they turn things around but they aren't worth the price right now.

While the food was good, the service was horrible! The greasy-headed waiter totally did not enter our ticket and then blamed the kitchen for losing it. Instead of apologizing, he ignored us, not even offering a refill on our drinks. He did not even pay enough attention to notice the table next to us (seated more than 10 minutes after us) was finishing their meal and we had not received ours! Really a sad excuse of service. A minimal amount of attention would have received 4 stars and a refill would have got them 5! The kitchen is the only thing positive about our meal!

Went to this restaurant for brunch and was asked to wait on the ramp for a couple spots to open up at the bar because all the tables were reserved. We waited for nearly an hour before finally getting two seats at the bar, and the bartender took forever with everything. Waited for ages to get the check, and once we finally got the check and left a credit card, we finally decided life was passing us by and that we'd just leave cash instead of waiting for her. So, we spent two hours in that restaurant for a meal that was pretty good, but what really set me off were the empty tables that were "reserved" the entire time we were there. The food wasn't worth it, nor was it worth the scowls on most of the staff's faces.
