It was Mother's Day at about 4:30, the Bruins game had just started, and I took a seat at the bar. Restaurant was half full. Started with an unsweetened Iced Tea, it tasted like chemicals and my bartendress cheerfully replaced it with diet pepsi. I ordered the taco burger (chili burger) with the fries crispy. The knife and fork were visibly dirty and the knife handle stickiness would not wipe off with a napkin. The knife was replaced with a clean one. I would guess the cutlery is packed too close together in the washing machine so the soap and water don't get in between them. That kind of stupidity could make someone very sick. It only takes a few minutes to train workers to do this correctly. Food was delivered a little slow, but not bad for mother's day. The burger patty was ample but dull, the chili looked and tasted like canned. but worst of all the chili was room temperature, making the whole sandwich unappealing. The fries were pale, soft, and also on the cool side. I had complained twice already. The young lady tending bar seemed to have had her patience drained by hearing complaints all day. I felt sorry fore her, having to make excuses and listen to complaints about the kitchen output all day. I did not raise any issues about the food. After two bites, I paid and left, never to return. $18 down the drain plus 45 minutes wasted. BBC - what do you think those letters stand for?

What a delight served up by the lovely Jenelle! A warm welcome, and service above and beyond. The curry was decadent, the veggie burger creative, and fish and chip perfection! Wing starters continue to deliver, and the superior mixology made for some enticing libations! Jenelles generosity created more Birthday magic, excellent experience!

Six people ordered different items off a menu of salads, burgers, tacos and other interesting choices. The food all came out hot (if meant to be). The Jive turkey burger with jack cheese, crispy onions, jalapenos and more was a hit with three of us. As was the sweet potato fries The menu has a number of sandwiches, subs, and meals - ribs, steak tips, chicken and ravioli - some of which I plan to try next time. They have upward of 20 draft beers with a high concentration from New England breweries.

4. The Holy Grail
Reviewed By BerlinG-ParisF
This was our first visit here since it used to be Tailgaters. That was several years ago. I couldn't really tell any major difference. I had iced tea and a Reuben with fries. My other half had a glass of Sauvignon Blanc and a Club Sandwich with fries. Food was good. Service was average. Free refills on iced tea but not as frequent as I would have liked. We were only one in the dining area upon arrival, but it started to fill up as we were there (note: there are only 5 or 6 tables in that area). Bar had about 8-10 enjoying themselves. Bathrooms still in back hallway and as clean as expected. Next time, we're in the area, it is a probably return depending on our schedule!

I am not sure why this place is rated so high. Defenetally not real ratings. The entrees in the menu are described like heaven, and then you get them and yahk!On top of that, nothing is less then $25 for awful bar food that for some reason takes forever to come out. The beers are 8 to 13 bucks.

We tried Rapscallion for the first time tonight. Although we thought it was a little pricy, the food was delicious and plentiful (will enjoy the leftovers for lunch!). I had the fat moon mushroom pasta and my husband had fish and chips. Marianna, our server, was pleasant and knowledgeable. She brought us samples of beers so that we could pick the ones we wanted. We had a very enjoyable experience, and will be back.
