Tia's

If you’re looking for a fine dinning experience, I would go somewhere else. But if you’re looking to grab some simple food and drink, I would give this place a chance. I have only been there for a sit down meal once with my dad and kids; that experience was great except for one factor…the music. I don’t know how the music is controlled but it was not appropriate nor fitting for the lunch rush of tourists, many with children. Not only was the music filled with expletives and sexual references, it was loud and hard to ignore. Nevertheless, service was great and food was exactly what I expected. Had the the buffalo chicken Caesar wrap and loved it. My dad really liked the clam chowda.

This place used to be crawling with 25-year-olds on any given weekend, and it’s definitely mellowed over the past few years. I threw my boyfriend a lowkey birthday party last year here where we had our own outdoor space and we had a great time! Some other reviewers have noted that the food is ready so quickly (very true), and the man who handled the food was so wonderful (he must be a manager or something like that because he seemed like he had a couple decades of experience in the business). I’m completely blanking on his name but he was an angel. He quickly found me once we got settled and then brought the food out a few minutes later, and he thought of all the details that we would need. It was a lot of work to coordinate this party, and this man really made things easier for me. Also the mac & cheese balls were so good! I sadly don’t have any helpful photos of the food but I do have a ton of photos of my friends and I having a really nice time. Tia’s also did separate checks for people throughout the evening, which was so helpful. If you’re looking for a lowkey outdoor space without an astronomical fee (the fee was $150 for our private outdoor space with no food/bev minimum, which definitely lower than other places close to the water) then I recommend this place!

What an amazing place!! Outside seating had a beautiful view of the harbor! The lobster ravioli was incredible and my husband’s shrimp/lobster scampi was divine!!! We stumbled on this place by accident and you should put it on your list of places to eat in Boston! You will not be disappointed! We hopefully will travel back this way someday and eat here again!!!

I’m so glad we ended up at Tia’s instead of the luxury restaurant on the water that we had originally planned on. The ambiance at Tia’s, the food, and the excellent service made for such a great evening. We enjoyed the Baha Tacos and the Pan-Seared Salmon. I was surprised to see some of the harsh reviews on here… I guess a lot of people are impatient. It’s seems to be a busy location and our server (I wish I could remember her name) was super friendly and attentive. Would come here again!

Stopped intoTias for a quick burger and beer on this past Saturday afternoon. The place was packed at 7pm barely a table available. Extremely friendly host pointed us to a table. Place was so crowded figured it would take forever to be served. Our waitress acknowledged us within a minute took our order had our beer in less than five minutes burgers within five more. I don't know how they pulled that off it was amazing. Food was delicious and hot our waitress was awesome and friendly. I would recommend them for a good meal in a upbeat friendly atmosphere
