    dbar is a full service restaurant that seamlessly transforms into a nightclub and lounge as the night goes on. Formally an old school Irish pub filled with mahogany charm, dbar has been renovated into a hip chic hot spot. With warm glowing candles & long leather banquettes, dbar offers a casual and comfortable atmosphere that attracts clientele from Dorchester and surrounding areas. The unique and classy menu inspired by Executive Chef Christopher Coombs changes with the seasons and features the finest and freshest available ingredients throughout the New England area. Most of the menu takes a French twist, but also contains an assortment of comfort foods (such as our famous Veal & Pancetta Bolognaise) and old favorites (like our simple yet delicious Giannone Chicken Under a Brick.)

    “I wanted to do a place with good Italian comfort food. The simplicity of it, the freshness of it, the quality of ingredients that you get to work with.” They specialize in that quintessential Italian comfort food – pizza. “I think it’s great that the city of Boston is turning around and starting to become known for pizza like the other big cities in the country,” he said. “It is such a simple food but it all comes down to the quality of ingredients.” It’s all done out of an open kitchen where the star of the show is Molinari’s wood burning oven.

    We waited a long time for this reservation and were not disappointed -- the food was delicious and for the most part we loved it. Still, the fish wrapped in grape leaves was a whole fish with a lot of tiny bones -- while delicious, we found it hard to navigate in the dark and a warning would have helped us order something else. The rice pudding also had lovely flavors and details, but the rice itself was cold and waxy. In all, while we had a really lovely night, part of the beauty of Mediterranean food is its affordability. We loved the restaurant, but the food felt overpriced.

    This was our second trip here and it did not disappoint. We enjoyed the fabulous biscuits, jalapeño grits, crayfish hushpuppies, and cracked benedict. The cocktails were also wonderful. Service was great and the food portions were generous. We will return again for sure.
