I will say that the ambience here is quite nice, and the place is quite large considering the location. The drinks are good, and the appetizers are very good. However, the service is a mixed bag. We went with a group (a happy hour for a college alumni association for some out of state schools). It was midweek during a slow time of year, and we started on the early side. They made us leave our meeting area (where we were comfy in the cozy chairs) and all push up to the front. Then they kept coming over to tell us not to crowd around (there weren't even that many of us). It wasn't a fire code thing since we weren't blocking anything. The place never got crowded, yet they seemed constantly concerned that we were in the way. Really annoying and rude. Parking is a big pain, but it's very convenient to Central Square T stop.
