Bar Vlaha

Exceptional food! Bar Vlaha serves elevated takes on authentic Greek food made with top quality ingredients. All in an inviting, cozy setting and orchestrated by kind and friendly staff. Craving Greek food after returning from Greece a few months ago, I was recommended to try Bar Vlaha and it was a pleasant surprise all around. I went during their weekend brunch menu hours and tried the spanakopita, sweet feta pastry, mushroom toast, baked eggplant dish, and the cheese pie dessert. Everything was delicious! The spanakopita was by far the best we’ve had. Service was extremely friendly and definitely a highlight. Our waiter was hilarious and shared great recommendations. My one frustration was that prices felt too high for the small portions of dishes like the spanakopita. But generally it’s

I genuinely think this is my favorite meal that I've had in the Boston area. This is Greek food, but with a northern twist that expands your definition of "greek food." The highlight of the meal was the fried mushrooms, great texture, flavor, and the sauce ontop was great. The only miss of the night for me was the rotating pita (phyllo slice), it was chicken based and just fell short in comparison to everything else. Another menu highlight was the wild boar pasta, so rich and yet totally different than what you might find in Tuscany. Definitely a place to reccomend.

I have been looking forward to coming here for a while and it delivered. We started with the melitzanosalata (charred eggplant) spread, saganaki, and the beet salad. The spread was very garlicky but otherwise tasty. The beet salad was delicious. I wish their bread had been toasted. It was clearly great bread but could have used some freshening. The saganaki was also great and complemented by some sweet pears that had been almost confited by the cheese’s fat. We shared the Vlach Giorti and braised beef cheek. Since it was the first time the Vlach giorti was a good way to try everything. I loved that it was a just a slab filled with grilled meats. Few things are better. The steak and lamb were so flavourful and unbelievably tender. Definitely the standouts. I don’t care much for sausage and

Bar Vlaha is a neighborhood gem. Been coming here since it first opened for both brunch and dinner. The food and drinks here are good and very consistent. We can usually count on a good meal here. Our favorites are the sourdough and spreads, beef cheeks, shakshuka, yogurt, grilled fish and fried mushroom. While nothing is exceptional, everything is good. The only complaint that we have is that, once in a while, they are a bit heavy handed on the salt. But, overall, we are impressed by their consistency in being able to deliver a good meal almost every time that we have dined here. It's a sign of a well run restaurant. The staff is friendly and efficient. The relaxing vibes lets you focus on enjoying a good meal and conversations, although it can get quite loud. We are lucky to have this r

I came to Bar Vlaha to celebrate my birthday, but also to check out some Greek-style food. What initially was a last-minute and arbitrary decision became the best decision I have made. The ambiance was nice, gave such a village, rusty feel. The staff greeted me, they were upbeat, courteous and personable. It felt like a team effort, where the manager, servers and bussers all worked synergistically to provide a great experience for myself and my family. The food and drinks were superb. I tried the wild boar shoulder, red wine, warm spices, hilopites, manouri, and it was tender and absolutely delicious. I sampled some of my family member's spinach, with rice, dill, lemon and eggplant with potato, feta, garlic, onion, tomato sauce and was WOW'd. I washed it down with a Miso Miso (a rye with
