This was my first time there and definitely will not be my last. Their food and drink menu looked great, twice as much as what was posted online. Few specials available for both and prices are reasonable. Our waiter was busy but still attentive. Inside and outside seating available, with a take away market connected. This is the fish taco, which could have used more veg & sauce. The plum berry martini was delicious! The grilled chicken sandwich had a huge breast and also a big hit. Parking can be a challenge but I recommend checking out this place.

This was such an incredible experience. Our drinks, appetizer, and entrees were better than my partner and I could've imagined. The staff was incredibly kind from the moment we entered until the moment we left. A lot of the staff have been working there for 5+ years so they were passionate and informative about the restaurant and what it has to offer. & Our server, Bill, was the greatest, shout out to Bill! We will for sure be back.

Still thinking about the amazing dinner I had here last weekend! This is a great spot, the cozy bar is perfect with stellar bar staff. The mussels were so good that I was ready to head back over the next day for more. Everywhere does brussel sprouts these days, but G bar does them best!

What a fabulous spot- certainly a local gem that rivals any Best of spots in Boston. This was my first experience (recommended by a local) and it didn’t disappoint! Service was friendly, attentive and informed. The menu was varied with loads of delicious options. We tried the tuna tower and I loved the shrimp limoncello! The G cosmo was fabulous. Looking forward to going back again.

Peppardelle (never had it before) was very good. Sauce was very flavorful and the spicy sausages were well prepared. My father had the haddock with the mashed potato and he said it was very good as well. The dumplings were also pretty good. I’d definitely dine here again!

We spontaneously stopped at G bar for a first time...but DEFINITELY NOT THE LAST TIME visit. We were thoroughly pleased! We sat outside. Harry the server was phenomenal and Sheila was a joy!! The owner Teresa was the quintessential of warmth and hospitality! She has an amazing team working there! The food and drinks were absolutely delicious! I forgot to take pics of our entrees but took pics of everything else....especially my delicious Limoncello Martini!! Thanks G Bar for a wonderful spontaneous summer dinner outing!!...Calvin (like in Klein) Cherry (like the fruit)!! 🤣🤣🥰😋❤🌈👍🏾💯👅
