Reviews for Ostra in Boston, MA
Superb. Lobster was amazing. Coffee ice cream was great. Plenty of gluten free options, even bread for the table! Service... timed the meal perfectly and was present but not overwhelming. Very professional staff. Read more
High end dining, lots of seafood options. Raw bar selection was strong, enjoyed our dishes. Consistently good plates, nothing... that unusual or wildly exceptional, but the ingredients are high-quality and it is made with care. Night time was a bit dark inthe dining area, some people had to use their cell phone flashlight to see the menu, seems a little unnecessary for it to be sodark! On Sunday night it was a very popular spot for group special events like birthdays or date night. Pricey bill but to beexpected. Read more

happy be well served. upscale restaurant claim themselves specialized in fish and seafood. i ordered the sea bream dish , that... i have high expectation. The fish was completely debone, skin was grilled right. Light dressing lemony , olive oil topped withfresh herb. It was exceed expectation delicious. I also tried a piece of monk fish. It was meaty, savory mushroom. This becamemy favorite dish on the menu. The octopus dish is a dispointment, it was grill right with the charcoal taste. However, thelemon dressing and the sour onion combination is over-power the whole dish. It seems it is over salty too. Read more
Lively restaurant with an incredible selection of seafood in Boston’s Back Bay. Started the meal off with some oysters, they... have several daily options, usually one order comes with 6; pricing varies from $20-30. We also had the hamachi crudo which wasexcellent, as well as the shishito peppers. The peppers were good; however, slightly under-seasoned and needed to be cooked abit more for better texture. For the main, we split the bream, branzino, and salmon. Out of the three, the bream was ourfavorite. Well cooked, excellent flavor, and nice accompaniments to the dish. We skipped dessert, but when your check arrivesyou’ll be offered a chocolate truffle. Overall, we enjoyed our meal at Ostra and will be returning. While on the pricier sidefor Boston, the seafood was fresh and well worth the premium. Read more
