    Brassica Kitchen is a gem. The food and cocktails are consistently good and they have a rotating selection of great, unusual wines. The staff are also some of the nicest, most professional people around.

    Great neighborhood restaurant. We had a Delicious meal. Lo mein was very salty and too unctuous for all 4 of us. Otherwise everything else was delish. Lights were too bright but server dimmed them. I was going to put my sunglasses on otherwise. Noise level was high and sometimes had a hard to hear what people were saying. Overall great meal and will be back!

    World-class food in a funky space across the street from Forest Hills subway station. Been coming here since it opened, same amazing (and super rich) food and friendly staff. In addition to the 3 partners/owners, many of the staff have been here since the beginning too. Tip and back-of-the-house fee are included in the bill, we still add a few dollars to it because the folks there are awesome.

    Every experience at Brassica is absolutely fantastic… the food is outstanding and unique, the service is over-the-top! Anna & Noah could not make you feel more welcome and Brenna is not only super knowledgeable about the wine & beverage offerings, she’s delighted to share her knowledge and is as warm as can be. And, if you’re lucky and go there to celebrate a b’day, you might get one of their special treats! Enjoy!!

    Brassica keeps amazing us every time we come. The combination of creativity hospitality and quality makes it our favorite restaurant in the Boston area. The aged strip tartar and Jordan’s salad were some of the highlights that really surprised us but everything was delicious. Only question is are you bringing back live music wednesdays sometime ?

    Went for my 50th birthday with family and it was an amazing experience. The food is outstanding- truly unique, delicious, creative, and surprising. We all voted on our favorite dishes and the most surprising dishes. The food comes out quickly so it was a challenge to make the meal last. It's pricey- there's a reason why I go only once a year, but I do appreciate that they include the tip into the check so that it's all done in one place. Ambiance is warm, homey, not casual but not stuffy in the least. For a celebration or special event there's no better spot.

    The food here is beyond amazing. The best chicken and waffles I have ever had and I get them often. We really enjoyed our time there, our only issue was that it was quite warm with no AC on and it's a little loud in there. But I would go back again for sure!

    The tasting menu called the RIDE was absolutely amazing. We felt like we were being treated to both perfected dishes that craft persons enjoy creating and some experimental offerings. This made us feel useful and valued and attached us to the operation. The drinks were delicious and the desert, something Frank made was incredibly balanced with a tart and subtle sweet taste. Overall a joyful experience. I did eat too much and disappointed in my lack of self control but the temptations were too great and I'm only human.

    We went to Brassica for the first time for my birthday. There were 4 of us in our party. We all enjoyed the food so much. It was a perfect adventurous birthday dinner. My husband loved the fried chicken. My favorite was the carmelized chicken and Jordie's salad. What a creative menu which I understand is constantly evolving. Parking was a cinch and very inexpensive across the street at the Forest Hills T station parking. We also enjoyed the Gay beer and appreciated that they promote a socially aware product. We would all love to visit again in the future. The service was top notch, as well. We appreciated the inclusive tip in the bill to assure a fair living wage for all the employees. They have thought of everything!

    As long time full time residents of the Boston area, my wife and I have eaten at many of Boston's best. For the last several years, Brassica Kitchen has been at the top of our list for GoTo places and there are many reasons that this is the case. Great creative food that never fails to please, outstanding service, outstanding wine and cocktails(Thank you Anna) and an overall welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home(Thank you Noah). If you haven't been, you are most definitely missing Boston's Best.

    Our meal was excellent from start to finish. Our server was friendly and helpful (but also good at reading the room and leaving us to enjoy our cocktails and meal when they arrived). The food was SO GOOD. It was one of the best meals we've had out in ages. I highly recommend ordering the "Jordie's choice" salad without asking what it's in it; it was such a fun surprise! We're sorry we'd never been before and will absolutely be back.

    It was sooo good. Start to finish all the flavors were amazing. The presentation of plates was great and the portions are perfect for sharing and being able to try many dishes at once. A very creative kitchen, and the staff are super nice, always willing to give their input on menu choices, recommendations, and what drink goes well with dishes. We love that so much of the food and drink are local too.
