The food was amazing. Everyone loved their plates. The service was excellent. They went above and beyond to get us out in time for our show. The atmosphere is warm and relaxing. We will definitely be back

Our dinner at Ostra was sensational. It was slightly difficult to locate their entrance, but once inside we were warmly greeted by the host and a elegant aesthetic. For our appetizers, we ordered fried calamari, truffle fries, and sweet corn (which was exceptionally delicious). Our main entrees consisted of the Salt Crusted Branzino and Roasted Cornish Game Hens, both were fantastic but the Branzino was most impressive. Perhaps the most impactful experience of the night was our desert, the "Snow Egg"; I struggle to find words that best describe this dish, but it was textured, flavorful, and quite unique. Overall, our meal and experience was worth every penny.

Ostra delivers an exceptional dining experience in Boston. The raw appetizers were fresh and beautifully presented, setting the tone for an unforgettable meal. The truffle gnocchi was indulgent and perfectly balanced, while the salted branzino for two (to three) people was a true showstopper as it was flavorful, tender, and expertly prepared. A must-visit for anyone seeking refined seafood and impeccable service.

The food was really a beautiful tasting journey and the service was incredible. So many servers, very friendly, passionate about the menu. We learned about the history of the restaurant.

Went for a date night dinner and the staff were so kind and attentive. They even split our entrées for us which made everything feel seamless.

I have walked past Ostra 100 times and never thought to go in. That was a mistake. This is now one of my favorite restaurants in Boston and easily the first place I would bring anyone visiting the city.

Great atmosphere in the heart of Boston. Excellent service. Sea bass tartare is a must order for the appetizer. Can't go wrong with any of the seafood. I personally really like the sea crusted branzino and the monkfish.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this fine dining restaurant, and overall, it was a memorable experience. The food is absolutely terrific—beautifully presented, thoughtfully crafted, and bursting with flavor. Every dish showcased a high level of culinary skill and attention to detail, making it well worth savoring.

Solid seafood in a clean, modern setting. I had a great time here. The oysters are incredibly fresh and clean, which is a big plus. Their paella is also a standout — rich, flavorful, and highly recommended. The monkfish, however, is just okay; pretty average and nothing particularly memorable. I’m not sure if they still offer the seabass tartare, but it used to be quite good. As for the desserts, they look impressive, but the taste is just average.

The food at OSTRA was truly delicious. The Boston lobster for $135 was absolutely worth it — so much sweet, generous meat. But the real surprise star was the gnocchi with truffle — rich, aromatic, and perfectly executed.
