I can’t recommend this place enough! We LOVED our waitress Zoe, so helpful with all the recommendations and such a great and joyful person. Overall we had a perfect lunch and the lobster roll was the best of our life (I also liked that it wasn’t giant as I always see in America). Even the desserts, which were soft serve and hand apple pie, were amazing. I’m very happy I decided to come here. For what regards the prices, I think they reflect the quality, and compared Europe, the oyster’s prices were lower!

The building is clean and has a pretty, modern interior. Customer service was fine nothing particularly warm, but not rude either, just neutral.
We came on a Friday around 5 p.m., and the restaurant was surprisingly empty with only two other tables occupied. We didn’t have a reservation but were seated quickly. However, booths are only available if you have a prior reservation.
I ordered the lobster stew ($23), which was very small about 8 ounces. Flavor-wise, it was good: lots of mushrooms, a few large chunks of lobster, and a taste closer to coconut curry rather than tomato. It’s not creamy, which I didn’t mind, but the portion felt extremely small for the price. I’d estimate there was about one ounce (or less) of lobster.
We also tried the clam chowder ($17 for 8 ounces). This was very liquid and not creamy at all, tasting mostly like potatoes which there were plenty of. We found only one whole clam; I expected diced clams, so that was disappointing.
One thing that really stood out was the automatic 5% charge added to the bill, regardless of group size or order amount. The receipt states this goes toward adjusting kitchen staff wages. On top of that, you’re still expected to tip your server, which is fine but combined with the extra charge, it didn’t feel justified given the portion sizes and overall experience. Paying $23 for essentially lobster broth doesn’t make the added fee feel reasonable.
Lastly, parking is not easy to find near this location.

Their clam chowder isn’t like most others — it’s not thick, but light and soupy. The style is very similar to the one at Hog Island Oyster Co. in San Francisco. The lobster roll looks small, but it’s packed with meat. I really enjoyed it.

Everything was mid and salty as hell. The oysters were ok but it’s hard to mess up oysters unless you’re serving straight up dead ones. The clam chowder was loaded with the ocean, too fishy, but was salvaged by the pork bits. The scallop gyoza was just 90% gyoza dough with a single small scallop in the middle. The lobster roll was just loaded with salt, it would’ve been better if it didn’t try to clog our arteries.
Now, the service… one server gave us an extra table to hold the oyster plate and another one came to take the table back, quite aggressively too. Not to mention, that same server also acted so condescending to me, mansplaining to me what a dozen is as if I don’t already know. Such a whatever experience I would say to avoid at all cost.
Update: after 1h30 rest and a drink, I’m still thirsty from all the salt they crammed into their food, beginning to suspect they have a salt sponsor.

Food and service were great. I do have some reservations about the pricing. Gluten free lobster roll was a Huge plus, and our server told us most of the menu could be made gluten free (they have a separate GF fryer). Small servings, but still delicious.

Best clam chowder I’ve had in years!
Lobster rolls are smaller than traditional size but super delicious. I prefer cold mayo ones, crispy bread roll full of lobster meat
Fried calamari was also amazing.

Just tried the One Way To Rio and absolutely fell in love! It’s a beautiful twist on Brazil’s national cocktail, the Caipirinha. The black mission fig–infused cachaça balances perfectly with ginger, lime, and a touch of sugar. Not too sweet! just smooth, bright, and wonderfully layered. The fig on top is the perfect finish. Well done also the brown butter soft serve is to die for! 10/10

The clam chowder was flavorful and had whole clams in it, which is something you don’t often see, and instead of the ubiquitous plastic container of hexagonal oyster crackers, they give you a small packet of crispbread which is wonderful in the chowder. The brown butter lobster roll was equally delicious, with just a touch of spice. The portions are a little bit small, so you’re not overwhelmed with the food, still have room for dessert. The service was quick and friendly and attentatively efficient

If you love oysters, you must visit Eventide. I visited late one recent afternoon and learned they had a special of buy one get one on the oysters. Wow! They had 6 MA oysters, some from ME, RI and CT on the menu that day. I had a perfect dozen from MA. I also tried the Butternut squash-crab soup which was delectable. I also tried the lobster roll which was not like the typical MA lobster roll -this one was in browned butter. It was also a great choice. The wait staff was engaging, very friendly and helpful with menu related questions. I cannot wait to go to Eventide again.

I’m consistently delighted by how delicious and surprising the food can be at Eventide. The lobster roll is my favorite in the city! I also love to get the tofu sandwich (so stupid good) and the fish sandwich (perfection). I think it’s always worth trying the funkier things they rotate on the menu too though! They know what they’re doing.
