Best Restaurants with Great Beer in Allston

Was a big fan of this retuarant group's Temple Bar which closed much to my disappointment a while back making a visit to Russell House very much anticipated. This restarant didnt disapoint. I arrived early and enjoyed a few drinks at the bar. The bar had an exccellent selection of cocktails, craft beers and high end liquors not found everywhere (Pappy Van Winckle). The bar is upstairs and once we finished and hit our reservation time slot we went downstairs for dinner. The menu was creative, the portions modest and the food very good. We had a few appetizers then our main course. The staff was attentive and the atmosphere was vibrant but not excessively loud. I very much enjoyed the experience and look forward to a return.

Great spot before the game. Good bar food and beers.

10’s all around. Service was impeccable and food was well timed and delicious. Overall great midweek lunch

Tasty American bar and grill food options at reasonable prices considering location. Wings, nachos, burgers, chicken sandwich and steak tips were all excellent. Churro doughnuts also a fun and tasty dessert. Great and fast service. Second time we’ve eaten here before a Celtics game and both times were a great experience.

Food was good! Our server was excellent! Overall a great experience
