A hip Spanish tapas/wine place on the higher end with a menu that never goes wrong. When the weather is nice, we suggest getting a table on the patio so that you can enjoy the beauty of Brookline brownstones. Show up early to avoid long lines.

The highest spot in Boston where you can enjoy 360-degree night view of the city. You can either reserve a table for a better view ($24/person minimum spend) or just grab a cup of drink by the bar. Their cocktails is really good, and I like the appetizer and snack as well. I wouldn't recommend their entree, though. Live jazz music at night. It's a "must-go" in Boston. Dress code: business casual.
