Bastia at Hotel Anna & Bel is the effortlessly cool girl who makes it look easy. Excels at everything, but you still absolutely adore her. The Strait of Bonifacio cocktail was insanely good: bright citrus, briny salinity, just enough herbal depth. But the lorighittas with wild boar sugo, English peas, and sunflower seed? My last-meal request. Notify the appropriate people. Shaved artichoke, skate cheeks, storzapretti, swordfish brochettes. A menu that understands I left the house and put on real pants for something I’m not making in my own kitchen (and couldn’t if I tried!). Deep green walls, patterned tile, dark wood, art with attitude. Warm lighting, plush booths, a fireplace. Old-world character with a little edge. The courtyard pool lit up at night makes booking a room feel like a perfectly reasonable next step. The 18th-century property once sheltered widows and single women before becoming Penn Home. Women, history, excellent taste. Feels like a strong case for the matriarchy. It houses soul that no design budget could accomplish on its own. Service was impeccable. My wine glass never stayed empty. I felt understood. Already plotting my return.

This was one of the best meals I've ever had! Having grown up Slavic, it was like stepping back into my mom mom's kitchen, but totally elevated!

First of all, the tasting menu was incredible. There was not a single item that came out that my wife and I weren’t blown away by. The flavors were amazing. They also offer a very unique and delicious cocktail menu (NA too!). The wait staff was on top of things at every turn. We’re so glad we picked Emmett to celebrate our 5th anniversary. We cannot wait to come back.

We enjoyed our dinner at Meetinghouse. It was a beautiful evening so we ate outside on the patio. We tried some different things- shrimp cocktail was tasty and rather small. The pork (pork steak) and beans were delicious as was the boiled cod dinner with potatoes. Two of our group had the pork sandwich special which they enjoyed. We would recommend this as a unique neighborhood joint, worthy of a visit!

The place is very well decorated, looks amazing. The music was on point, the service and food were amazing! Highly recommend the Cajun salmon and pasta. My server was the sweetest and helped me get cute pictures of me in the restaurant!
