Asta Boston Reviews
Asta: seasonal, fun, flawless
We were regulars at Asta for many years when they first opened and returned recently for the first time since moving out of the Boston area. Everthing was a good as we remembered. The menu features seasonal fruits and vegetables along with super i
It was a great experience, service was top notch.
Was there on a Tuesday night so was quiet but had an excellent time catching with old friends and having a wide variety of dishes.
Continues to be the best restaurant in Boston.
Most creative and well executed tasting menu available anywhere
This was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had.
And if you have been and think differently, I would question your sanity and whether we could be friends. If we were dating, I probably would have to end it. I literally don't even know where to start. If the bill wasn't hundreds of doll
Service was perfect, as was the venue and vibe.
Food was very very good--the foie supplement is 1000% worth it, the cheese course was fine but not a must-add. My only almost-complaint is that I really wasn't wild about the pairing. It felt like they were a little too creative--we had a sake,

Excellent dining experience especially when celebrating a special day. Beautiful atmosphere with fresh flowers. Friendly knowledgeable staff for food and wine. Every dish was executed well from presentation to taste to uniqueness. Definitely go.
Amazing food, atmosphere and cuisine.
The service was first class all the way. I can't wait to go back here

Of all the tasting menus in Boston, save your money and skip this one. The short is we left hungry and sober after spending a bit over $500 with tip on dinner with pairings for 2. Half of the dishes were ones we've had better versions of at ot
We had an amazing meal at Asta last weekend.
We had the tasking menu plus the foie gras add on and wine pairings. It was so much fun. We loved the butternut squash soup with cod fritters (I thought they were a tad too salty, my partner did not). Next was the rutabaga with puffed rice which w

I'm writing this to save the next person who may walk in the door. The good of the night was service as they are very friendly. The bad is the food is almost inedible where every course that comes out is worse than the last. We had great laughs
Wide range of creative flavors.
Japanese influence. Innovative combinations. The sablefish was to die for. The western Ma tenderloin was so tender and tasty. Solidly the best restaurant in Boston with the most creative food. Intimate atmosphere. Watch the chefs work right in front
I’d go elsewhere for the price
I can’t say that I would recommend asta. We didn’t get served food until 90 minutes into our meal and then what came was a small cup of kombucha. Which after 90 minutes was just not suffice. No bread or anything in the meantime so if you come hun

We had dinner at Asta tonight, and what a culinary adventure it was! The vegan tasting menu was amazing. The combination of flavors and textures, unique ingredients, service and presentation were all enjoyable and memorable.
Asta, is one of the worst restaurants in Boston.
My wife and I are both vegan and were excited to experience their tasting menu. We expected the small portion sizes but hoped for a variety of tastes and flavors to go along with the experience. Instead, what we received was a bland, uninspired mess
Extremely creative and flavor fueled
We first visited over a year ago and were disappointed with the most recent reviews, but had faith to return to this unique and special spot. We have travelled the world and consider ourselves to be good judges of what good looks like when it comes t
It was a nice experience.
The space is very nice, the staff was great and the overall ambience worked well. Food portions were ok for this kind of service and I was full by the time we were done. However the food was so bland. There wasn't a single dish that I'd consider mem
Not even close to what we were expecting from this hyped restaurant
Overrated restaurant. Arrived 1/2 hour early, asked for a drinks menu which we never got. 1/2 hour after our reservation time they finally started with an amuse bouche, so we sat there for 1 hour with a small glass of sparkling wine and nobody asking
The most underwhelming meal I have ever had.
I cannot believe I was so misled by an establishment. I feel as though someone would come out at any time during the meal and tell me I was being Punked. I'm happy for the people that found this place great, but I cannot fathom how that could ever be
Can't recommend a restaurant that serves the
Can't recommend a restaurant that serves the cruelly-prepared foie gras. Such a disappointment.

My husband and I live far outside Boston (read the sticks) but I grew up in Newton and have eaten all over the city. As a pair, we have shared meals from Dubai to Colombia at the most upscale of places. Oh, also he's an Executive Chef. We went out la

*DINER ALERT!* My partner and I are foodies and accustomed to smaller portions with tasting menus, it's all about the flavors and ambiance. I'm also sensitive to post-pandemic staffing and food supply challenges. However the tasting menu at Asta is
Wouldn’t go back
We love going to tasting menus and have been to many all over the world, but never encountered a situation in which the “main course” was beef tongue and we politely told the waiter we don’t eat tongue! His response was “it tastes like bris
Disappointed
Disappointed. Noisy environment accentuated by lackluster disinterested service Over a six course dinner that not once asked if we needed anything additional No bread offered Main course was the tongue of a cow! How many people find that appealing
The food and service were both excellent! I really enjoy
The food and service were both excellent! I really enjoy being surprised with each course in a tasting menu so I can try new things I otherwise wouldn't. This didn't disappoint with a variety of vegetarian, fish, and meat courses. Additionally, they
Our favorite restaurant in Boston.
Ever single time we've gone the menu has been a fantastic and completely novel collection of outstandingly delicious items. Shish and Alex make us feel like old friends while Alex and his team create and then explain what's in each dish. If you lik

The food was amazing!! We went for the 9-course vegan tasting menu, and everything was just perfect. The food, the staff. A truly wonderful experience!
I can not describe how much I liked this place.
It's probably the most interesting/delicious meal I've had in Boston. If you want to be surprised by amazing flavors and unexpected combinations, just do yourself a favor and eat here.

Connect with users posting reservations for Asta Boston
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Asta Boston. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Asta Boston at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Asta Boston page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* BraveCloth47, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* BraveCloth47 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to BraveCloth47 for any questions Peter may have as BraveCloth47 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* BraveCloth47 now uses their connections at Asta Boston to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If BraveCloth47 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, BraveCloth47 receives the $200 reward which is credited to BraveCloth47's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Asta Boston!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
