Saloon

“Gorgeous place with speakeasy vibes and $1 oysters from 5 to 7!! The drinks are amazing. 10/10 would recommend”

“This dark looking speakeasy has a deceptive entrance on the street. The bar tenders know what they are doing - they made me an excellent Old Fashioned, and everyone else enjoyed theirs drinks too. The heavy wood paneling gives it a sober and sophisticated atmosphere. A great place to enjoy a cocktail or two.”

“Great bar for a cocktail with friends. Saloon is a hidden gem in the Davis Square area. Go down a few stairs to find out a tastefully decorated bar with plenty of seating places and a great vibe. We chose to come here because we were a big group and could book in advance. Cocktails were delicious, I enjoyed the Hen of the Woods. Staff was very friendly and gave us some good recommendations. Prices are fair. I loved the music playlist but it was a little too high because we seated below a loudspeaker. Other than that, a perfect place for a night out!”

“The food was average or below average. The mussels were drowning in ginger bits and you couldn’t taste anything else. I think it’s a shame as I’m sure the mussels taste great but is being overwhelmed. The fries were good - I’d recommend that only. The wings were okay but lacked some base seasoning or marination. Service was mixed. Great in regard to drinks knowledge and vibes. I really liked our server for that. However, we waited a long time with no water mid-meal and the flow was just chaotic / slow. Long gaps between foods etc. the place wasn’t that busy either- it was mostly empty. Overall I’d come back for the drinks but not for the food.”

“We were served spoiled oysters that had a very strong, pungent rotten smell. When they first came out I thought something was off. My first one taste fine but my second one spit right in my napkin. It tasted like rotten trash. My friend didn’t notice at first and ate one that was much much worse than mine only to immediately spit it out. The odor was so overpowering that it stayed in our noses for the entire drive home. While the restaurant did remove the oysters from our bill, this is a serious quality control issue. Serving rotten seafood is unsafe and could have made us very sick. We both felt nauseous the entire night after just by how bad the smell was and how it's all we could smell after.”
