Justin Ordoveza: "They have a wide variety of artistic periods from around the world. The collections of American is some of the best in the country. The coat check can take some time especially in winter."
Ilana Eides: "Staff is not only incredibly knowledgeable but equally as friendly. Excellent wine and craft beer selection. Frequent wine tastings- dangerous for someone who lives across the street."
Simon Kratzer: "Neat little bakery with marvellous and creative pastries and very friendly staff. The avocado sandwich is the classic. Get the shakshuka if you want to try something new!"
Al S: "Some of the most beautiful and picturesque scenery in all of Boston, especially in winter and spring. Check out the Ducklings, the Japanese Lantern, the main bridge and the Good Will Hunting bench."
Youssof Mal: "one of the best coffee shops in Boston. The espresso based beverages are constantly good, and the draft latte is a must try (try the Tan & Black instead for something less airy and more substantial)"
Reserve: "A raw bar devoted to the good stuff takes center stage, with oysters, shrimp, scallops, uni and more. Plus an entire section of the menu dedicated to crudo and ceviche? We’ll be here all night."
Kristine Munroe-Mahoney: "When possible, visit it on a weekday morning in the fall. Plentiful parking, less crowds, but still great. Plus, Sullivan's has super cheap breakfasts."
Christopher Young: "Best views of Boston Harbor anywhere. Causeways that go way out into the Harbor. Views of the islands, sailboats, the Boston skyline. No cars or noise. Sullivan's has great burgers, lobster rolls, …"
The Wall Street Journal: "It's so beautiful and peaceful. You can go there at different times of the year and will always be in awe of what you see. That it's right in the city and accessible to everybody makes it more amazing"

Peter Salvitti: "A hidden jewel amid the hustle and bustle of Boston ... yeah, it's across the waterfront from downtown but it's worth the view!"
Travelhound12: "This is one of my favorite spots to hang out in Boston Harbor. Wonderful views of downtown Boston. Sailboats and kayakers go by and wave hello. Several pavilions to rest in also."
