I went on a solo trip to Boston back in December 2025. I ate here one late Tuesday night and I ordered the caesar salad with chicken and I still think about it almost every day. Best chicken I have ever tasted and overall a very satisfying meal. The hostess was very kind and the vibes in general were great.

I arrived 15 minutes before my reservation; I was seated right away.
I ordered hash and eggs. The scrambled eggs were good. The meat portion was generous.
I asked for some bread which did not arrive. I am ambivalent about recommending the restaurant.

Good place to hangout on a game day and to grab some drinks and appetizers. The onion rings were bad but the black bean burger was excellent. We also had burrata which was decent.

Back Bay Social is an American Bistro and Brunch spot located in the heart of Back Bay, right near the Convention Center and Prudential Center shopping mall.
We came in during lunch, and it was quite busy. Staff were very friendly, making sure we were seated promptly and our food came out quickly.
I got the Chicken and Waffles. The maple syrup included was not too sweet or sticky, and went well with the waffles. For the price, the portion was pretty good, and the chicken had big portions. I think the chicken was a bit too heavy for me, but that’s just my opinion and other members of my party enjoyed it a lot more. They also had good tater tots as well.

Right across the street from the mall. After 10pm they have live music in the basement where the bathrooms are as well. We went in. Friday night, mostly younger crowd and wait staff was very friendly.

Great burgers, very delicious fries (fried in beef tallow), and open late! The Retro Room looks really cool, but we were there for the food and there weren’t any tables available (it’s popular). Also not too expensive.

Bay Bay Social is an absolute gem! I had the wings, mozzarella sticks, and the drink of the month — all were absolutely delicious. The wings were perfectly seasoned, the mozzarella sticks had that perfect crispy-outside, gooey-inside balance, and the drink was spot-on refreshing. What really stood out, though, was the service. The wait staff was incredibly patient and kind as I worked through splitting the bill so my company could cover the food. Their professionalism and friendliness made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend!

Love the non alcoholic drink options. We went for brunch ona Saturday. I really liked the eggs. They have an egg and tater tots bowl, yum pancakes, yum. Their burger made with chuck, short rib and brisket is outstanding the breakfast flatbread is also delicious. We orders like 8 dishes and ate them as tapas. 4 people at the table. Food and drinks came to around $190. I’d definitely go here again

I had a good experience at Back Bay Social in Boston. The waiter, whose name was either David or Daniel, was extremely nice and polite. The wings were very crisp and fresh, and the salad was good. However, the quinoa salad was plain and flavorless. The prices are on the expensive side.
