Homemade GF pasta and mozzarella sticks!!! Yes please!! My sister and I both have celiac and our waiter put us at ease right away, letting us know that the gluten-free food was prepared in a separate area. I did have my 10 year old niece with me. She was not as appreciative of the menu. There were not many options for her as a child.
A BOSTON GEM! So happy we ate here. I wanted a romantic place for dinner and this place did not disappoint. Everything on the menu sounded amazing so we definitely over-ordered. We got 4 apps and an entree. We ultimately let the server decide our entree and he chose the duck, which was perfectly cooked. Also had MANY gluten free options for my allergy.
We got the chocolate soufflé and flourless chocolate cake for dessert because we couldn’t decide between the two. I loved the soufflé and my hubs preferred the chocolate cake.
Highly recommend for a romantic dinner or if you want to splurge on a high end meal!
Cute little hole in the wall (or ground as the case may be 😅) serving a blend of Thai and Japanese-American staples. I tried their hamachi nigiri, which had an excellent quality fish. Their fried tofu was some of the best I've ever had, except there wasn't enough of the sweet and sour sauce so it was a little dry. But the tofu itself had this amazingly crispy outside and cloud soft texture inside. Their fried tofu is gluten free and they GF soy sauce as well. Don't be alarmed, they label their gluten free soy sauce as "gluten".
Delicious, fun lunch date after the MFA. We had a mixto cerviche which was chock full of seafood & shrimp. Instead of the Baja citrus style, this had a creamy sauce. I am gluten free and they made us a batch of corn tortilla chips, otherwise the 4 sweet potato (?) chips that came with the dish would not have been enough.
THE RIBS!!! OMG, I’ll return just for these! Succulent, all meat, fell off the bone. The BBQ sauce was fantastic.
Chicken tacos were also tasty & had abundant filling.
Great service, our waiter was so nice. However, the food took quite a while to come considering we were the only customers at 3 pm on a weekday.
Parking on Newbury St is always challenging, just keep circling the area til you find something. We recommend Puro!
This restaurant was just wonderful! We stumbled upon it walking down the street looking for a place for dinner and I’m so glad we did! The food is absolutely delicious and the service was impeccable. Our waiter, Dany was truly one of the best waiters I have ever come across. Not to mention that I had gluten free options. I 100% recommend this place.
CGK is fantastic. The food was delicious. We got the But Make It Spicy chicken sandwich and a plain burger on a gluten free bun. Both were phenomenal - juicy, salty, flavorful. The service was friendly and super fast. Lots of good gluten free options.
Our first time to Boston and Back Bay Social was within walking distance from our hotel. We were quickly shown to our table. Marlena was our waitress and she was awesome. She was very informed about the menu and options. This was important since our kids are both gluten-free. She gave my wife and I suggestions and she was spot-on. The food was magnificent and the wait staff awesome. If we are ever back in Boston - we will definitely visit Back Bay Social again. Loved it!
Celiac friendly
