Devlin's Restaurant and Bar

Great place! went for brunch, and was severed fast. Nice waitress. And even a band playing in the computer! The food was good and fast. What more can you ask for? Definitely recommend the brunch. A great place to take a date, or family more

Typically I am not a fan of Valentines Day. However, my boyfriend took me out to dinner at Devlin's and boy was I impressed. The restaurant was decorated so romantically with rose petals and candles with a rose for each lady. Our server was very good, offering wonderful suggestions for dinner and wines to accompany our choices. The banana chocolate chip bread pudding was to die for. Overall I loved this place and would love to go back, even if it is not Valentine's Day!!! Pros: romantic atmosphere and great service Cons: none!!! more

Hi \r I was at Devlins Last Weekend. The staff were very friendly and the service was impeccable. The food was really good we started off with the soup cream of red bell pepper it was fab. Then we had the steak and chicken kiev it was very tasty. the place its self is very very clean and the decor is really cool. After dinner we went over to the bar side and it was very busy nice athmospher the lighting is what gives this place its unique ambiance,ill be back again and again i really highly recommended this place for a good night out. Pros: service, Ambience Cons: parking more

I really thought this place was great. Me and my girlfriend went for my birthday. The crab cakes were awesome, wine was good, and fish was great. The only complaint that I have is that the pork chop I had was very dry, but no one is perfect. I would definatly recommend this place for a date or just as a place to get a good meal with great staff. Pros: Staff Cons: Over cooked Pork Chop more

Devlins has a very interesting and elegant decor. The restaurant is divided into two equal halves. Both have bar sections, but one side has more of a bar/lounge atmosphere, and the other almost feels like a French restaurant. Then there is the patio which is well kept and clean. Unlike most patios in Boston, it is an enclosed area protected from the noise of the street AND it has a small fountain. The ambiance in the restaurant and the patio, make it a very pleasant place to eat. Pros: decor, martinis more

I'm thinking that this place doesn't pay their management well. Although the decore and service were OK, it just felt chaotic from beginning to end. AND THEN THERE WERE THE MARTINI'S FROM HELL. The very bored bartender was underpouring to the point that my husband and I were watching him and laughing. My cosmo was like cool-aid..the espresso martini's (which they used to do very well..) was a white russian with extra milk. Yuk, and no thanks. If you like to feel respected, go somewhere else. We left without eating...didn't even want to GO THERE... Pros: nicely decorated, sweet servers/hostess, prices not bad Cons: horrible bartender, horrible bartender, horrible bartender more

Devlins is a rare gem in Brighton featuring 2 separate bar areas, dinning area with great window seats, and a gorgeous patio out back complete with waterfall, ambient lighting, and heaters. The bar staff (Shamie, Stuart, and Brian especially) are excellent and make wonderful martinis from their unique list. Try the espresso martini or the mojito. The food is excellent and management has done a great job of updating the menu; there is also a bar menu served until 11pm or 12pm. Much has changed since CitySearch has reviewed the place and Ive never seen anyone dance. The DJ spins house music after 10 @ nights and theres never a line; the bouncers are nice unobtrusive guys. A very sophisticated but laid back place. Perfect for a romantic date, diner with the parents or an after-work gathering with colleagues. Things can get very busy which makes the atmosphere even better! Pros: Bartenders, Martini list, Ambiance Cons: Young waitstaff, Dessert needs work more

Devlin's has really improved since CitySearch reviewed it. The menu has been streamlined and food is much more consistent (consistently good). In addition, they've removed the bakery side of the restaurant, and replaced it with a great bar/lounge. more
