Vera's

“Had a last minute event there in March 2026 and the staff and kitchen couldnt have been more accomodating and professional. We had a private space off to the right of the front bar area. They allowed decorations and bringing in our own cake. We were able to add a few last minute food items and carafes of wine as the guest list grew. The food was wonderful and fresh. We all had a wonderful time!”

“Great food, drinks, and atmosphere! Cocktails are creative and well balanced -- we had the Three Dollar Bill and the MUSTAAAAARD (which should not work, but does). For food we got the shrimp and broccoli rabe flatbread special, the meatballs with polenta, the garlic cheese bread, and for dessert the tiramisu. Everything was fantastic. Probably one of the best tiramisus I've ever had. This worked out to about $40/person. We will definitely be back!”

“This place... Mama Mia!! This is an awesome cocktail bar 🍸 with an Italian 🇮🇹 flare and modern entertainment. They have a seasonal menu, so my husband Michael and I weren't able to order what we were craving since the last time we were here (a little over four months ago; we live in South Bend, Indiana); however, their current menu didn't fail to impress. The Chicken 🍗 Piccata 🍝 was delightful and mouthwatering, while their signature drinks definitely wet our proverbial whistles. We ended our experience with their great canoli coffee, and tea. And the service... Jason and the entire staff was friendly and welcoming and put smiles on our faces. If you're in the Somerville area, this is a must dine. We strongly recommend it.”

“Vera's was one of the highlights of our trip to Boston visiting friends. It was decked out for Christmas which made the entire atmosphere cozy and festive. The bar service was exceptional with great recommendations and conversation. The drinks themselves were delicious, and the bourbon selection (and rum!) much better than expected. Next time I'm in Boston, we will be back!”

“Overall a good experience, the service was good and not too slow. It was pretty loud on a Friday night but not impossible to talk. The food was pretty reasonably tasty, we got Chicken Picatta, a dirty Martina dip, pasta aglio olio, prosciutto wrapped shrimp, and a banana split. I liked the Chicken Picatta best, I thought it was all pretty good and reasonably portioned. The total for 2 apps, 2 entrees, a drink and a dessert was 93 dollars which isn't actually high in 2026. They also had real flowers on the table which is always nice.”
