- JJohnGreater Boston •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoCouldn’t have been happier with the food and service. The crab cakes were…crabby..with a light crispy outside. The French onion soup was classic, and the steaks were seasoned and cooked to perfection. The chocolate chip cookies, like the steak, were cooked medium but with a chewy crust. It was money well spent.More infoGrill 23 & BarPrice: Very Expensive• Steak• Back Bay•4.8

- SSuzanneVIPNew York City •13 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoThe dinner menu was well-planned and I loved that the communal dining table of the original Herb Lyceum made its way to Puritan & Co.for this special dinner. We selected our own bottle of wine to enjoy with the meal, but i observed that people who went with the wine pairing were happy with that. Chef Andre's courses were creative and each element was thoughtful and surprising, but mostly delicious. Hoping this dinner becomes a regular feature.More infoPuritan & CompanyPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Cambridge•4.6

- JJesseGreater Boston •1 review5.0Dined on Jan 26, 2025We did the oyster shucking class and it did not disappoint! Do not eat before because that appetizers were plentiful and incredible! There was half of a lobster roll for every person with a bunch of other incredible bites to eat including a caviar cone. There was a nice charcuterie board as well as a fish pate. One drink of choice included with the ticket and I had an incredible cocktail. The staff overall was great, the class was simple, down to the point, with plenty of personal attention. Chef made us feel right at home and interacted with everyone. Right after the class you could stay for food and more incredible cocktails. I would recommend this as a great date night. Can't wait to come back and enjoy the full meal. Oysters were fresh with a good variety of choices.More infoOyster Bar by Puritan & Co.Price: Expensive• Oyster Bar• Cambridge•4.8
