Customer Reviews
TLDR; amazing food, frustrating service. We did the pre fixe offering and it was sooo much food, so we were able to try a ton of items that were all fantastic. Every dish was incredibly well balanced and I look forward to our leftovers. I would highly recommend the squid ink fusilli and the truffle mafaldine. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. Our server was great and pretty attentive, but the back of house was clearly slammed since our meal took almost 2 hours. We got our first 2 courses quickly, but didn’t get our drinks until after. Then it took some time for our 3rd course (which was fine at first because I was starting to feel full), but then it took about a half hour for them to clear our plates and bring out dessert. They don’t have a restaurant week selection, but I am
Best food ever in life. It felt like so well curated and specialized meals. Healthy food. Good vegetarian options. Staff is sooo courteous and caring! They made a special hand signed birthday card! Place happens to be in a little isolated Seaport area, that can be a disguise but once at the restaurant it was amazing vibe.
We ended up stopping in at Chickadee almost by accident, and ended up having one of the top three meals of my life. The service was attentive and friendly; our waitress Emily took outstanding care of us. And the food was just... I struggle to describe. Beautifully crafted, exquisite flavours, and every element worked both as an individual course and as part of the larger journey through the meal. Chickadee isn't cheap, but it is well worth the price and I definitely recommend it.
Dined in Dec 2025. I appreciated that this place did not try to be flashy with the selections, the presentations, the ambience, and service. Everything felt just right and comfortable. Enjoyed a peaceful family outing in a winter evening, when the area was not as crowded as in other seasons.
One of the best dining experiences of my life! The drinks, the food and especially the service were EXCEPTIONAL! Can’t say enough good things about this place. Some highlights were the gray parrot drink, all the clear/clarified drinks, the lobster and rabbit pastas. The service was the highlight of the evening though…so attentive and thoughtful. The whole crew signed a card for our anniversary and gave us a round of drinks to celebrate. The waiter checked in at all the right times and made great recommendations making sure we had a very special night. We can’t wait to come back!
