Reviews for M.J. O'Connor's in Boston, MA
Amazing food; terrible service! I ate here tonight by metaled before it was busy. When I was sat I wasn’t given any... silverware, but I figured I would get it when my waitress came. After waiting a few minutes (not long) my waitress took my drinkorder (seltzer water, nothing complicated). I also placed my order for food Herb Chicken. My food was brought out very quickly;however, there was no silverware. The individual who brought my food out didn’t notice so I had to wait to flag down mywaitress. The food was AMAZING I typically don’t order a dish like this but I am glad I did. Here is my issue, once Ireceived my food my waitress never came to check on how it was and never refilled my drink. I had to flag down another waiter toget me a drink after I finished my entire meal. He got my waitress and she brought me my check. I am incredibly patient,especially when eating alone, but this was ridiculous in light of how slow they were. I would return in a heartbeat, but Iwould hope I get another waitress. Read more
Nice place for comfort food or a quick bite. Friendly, helpful staff that are attentive and quick. Had the Mac and cheese with... nice thick cuts of bacon mixed in and my wife had grilled cheese and tomato soup. They were just what we needed after a long dayof traveling. Went back a couple days later and had some apps as a mid-day snack... loaded tots and chicken tenders. Perfectlyportioned and delicious. Can't ask for much better. Read more

Really nice and cozy Irish style pub/restaurant. I got the fish and chips and it was great. Not the best I have ever had but... their fries were up there. Highly recommend this spot, it seems like it's never crazy busy. Read more
My family wanted a simple, quiet meal after a very long drive and checking into our hotel. We chose this location because it... was nearby. It is a pub/restaurant, that offers a nice atmosphere and fair prices. It seemed like a busy evening for them. But, we were quickly seated and our waitress was attentive. We had to ask for silverware, napkins, condiments, refills, etc. But it arrived promptly each time. The menu is limited pub style food and mainly burgers/sandwiches. But that is what weexpected and our food was good (Burgers and Reuben). The menu offers enough of a variety that most people would besatisfied. The only small disappointment was that we were hoping for some onion rings. But they weren't on the menu...noworries because their fries were a decent substitute. Read more
Had appetizers and drinks here last night. I have to say, Mike at the bar was one of the most attentive and personable... bartenders I have met in quite a long time. He made us feel like we were regulars on our first time! The bar is well set up,ambiance is on point, and service is second to none. Go Mike! Thanks for making our overnight in Boston spectacular!

The food was great. Finally a restaurant that has reasonably-sized portions with the quality to match. All that being said, we... waited over 20 minutes for before someone took our drink order, the appetizer was delivered without any utensils, napkins, orthe water we had asked for. Two tables were sat after us, received drinks, appetizers, and their main course within the time ittook us to get our drinks. I would still go back to try more of the menu and to upgrade my rating. Hopefully this was a one offexperience. Read more
We ended up here before a show, with limited time, when we were running late and somehow could not find the Legal Seafood that's... pretty much across the street. We had hungry kids and a tight schedule, and the wait staff here were very accommodating. Theplace is very unpretentious, it's a pub serving pub food and beer, and knows it. It was busy and noisy, with football on the TVsand a lot of fried food on the menu. Our food came out quickly, our server was attentive (despite the crowd), and we were ableto eat and get to our show in plenty of time. The food is very much standard pub fare. The kids got fish and chips, we got themargarita pizza and tater tots. It was exactly what we needed. Read more
