Bar Vlaha Brookline Reviews
Great food and service, incredibly friendly and kind staff.
Sat at bar (with reservation), server was knowledgeable and awesome. Fun to try food from a region of Greece that is not normally offered in Greek restaurants , deemed exotic and fresh. Food quality was wonderful and tasty . Fried crispy oyster mu

We had an awesome dinner at Bar Vlaha with our teenage daughter who’s a foodie. Our waiter Jorge was awesome and we even met the General Manager Tomas (spelling?). The food was delicious and the drinks were amazing. The fried mushrooms were magic.

Amazing! Walking in, the restaurant is so cute and has a great vibe! The food was incredible, had one of the spreads, the pie of the day (this one was mushroom), the one vegetarian traditional option, and the chicken in yoghurt sauce. Everyone was so
Amazing food, service, atmosphere.
Best food in Boston so far. Great waiter, unique food and cocktails. Rich yet not fat
What a great way to dine and not just eat.
Bar Vlaha provided a casual yet upscale experience from the vibe to the service to the food. We had a great seat facing the kitchen ain't got to watch them put together dishes. Part of the reason why I did not give this place five stars is becau
We went for brunch and sat at the bar.
The whole space is beautiful. It feels warm and homey while also being modern and fresh. The very friendly and informative bartender answered our questions about unusual cocktail ingredients in detail and advised us on what a few drinks were like. My

Adding my voice to the mix to support this wonderful spot - really enjoyed our experience here. We sat at the center of the chef's table, which felt both bustling (slammed kitchen with graceful chefs) and private (we were totally unaware of the
The first time we came here we ordered off the early menu.
The food was outstanding, some of the best Greek food I've had in the Boston area. The next time we came we were excited to try the dinner menu. Unfortunately it was somewhat of a disappointment. The service was excellent but the food was not as
Excellent food and service
We ordered several appetizers, side dishes and main meals and shared them all. The food was excellent. We were all impressed with everything we ordered. The server was very friendly and helpful. There is seating indoors and some seating outdoors.
Excellent restaurant
Bar Vlaha has delicious food, great cocktails, outstanding service, and good vibes. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
Authentic and tasty menu
Wonderful Greek restaurant that has a diverse and authentic menu and vibrant scene. The dips were great and plentiful. The main courses were big. I highly recommend the leg of lamb.
Authentic
I absolutely love this place for authentic Greek food in Boston! The service and quality of food here are truly unmatched. It has a cozy, family-style atmosphere with expertly crafted cocktails. You have to try it!
What a great meal
A friend and I had a delicious lunch here. Interesting and incredibly tasty dishes, you could really taste all the flavors coming through. Great staff. Can't wait to return.
Bring friends to share!
We had a fabulous dinner here with colleagues. Their dishes are meant to be shared so we ordered some spreads with pita, salad, savory pies, dolmades, lamb chops, chicken, trout, potatoes, and eggplant. Recommend it all. We also got the dessert sampl
Go and Be Transported to Greece
Friendly wait staff and delicious food. Brunch offers a variety of shared bites as well as entrees and/or Greek egg dishes. Everything is made to order and is flavorful and seasoned beautifully. I can’t wait to return.
AMAZING food.
Long wait even with a reservation on Sunday morning, but once seated service was fast. Very cute decorations around the whole restaurant!

5 But not even close to deserving a spot as one of Boston's best restaurants. Dishes were all just ok Certainly not bad but left you feeling more underwhelmed than excited. probably would not return.
We have gone for dinner and it was amazing.
I left and thought it was my favorite restaurant in Boston. Went back for brunch and had the worst service and food was only okay. I would personally skip brunch and come back for dinner.
The real Mediterranean diet
Bar Vlaha defies the stereotypes of a Mediterranean diet based on fish and seafood. Instead, this is the cuisine from the interior of the country that celebrates roasted meat and vegetables. You won't find moussaka, gyros, pastitsio here. We star

6 stars for everything here! I ate here the evening of the Boston Marathon and it was slammed. They still snuck us in, offered incredible service & incredible food. This is the kind of place you don't want to leave and you can't wait to come back
Being one of the few restaurants in Boston that offers
Being one of the few restaurants in Boston that offers authentic Greek food outside of gyros and falafel wraps, I just had to check out Bar Vlaha. The interior of the restaurant was beautifully decorated; warms comforting, and all-around welcoming.
Exceptional food, wonderful waitstaff, great vibes.
Perfect place for a date night! I can't wait to come back and try more of the dishes
Great staff.
Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The cocktails were good and the food was good. The atmosphere is charming. Parking is a challenge in that part of Brookline. I would recommend taking the 66 or the green line if it is running. Beware the plat
Average
The restaurant has a nice feel, however the food is very overpriced for what it is; servers rushed to clear off the table without asking if we were done eating. Vegetarian options are unbalanced and lack protein or flavor.

Authentic greek food, the way it's cooked and served in Greece. During my tine there, I felt that I was back in Greece eating in a Greek restaurant. We had the beef with dates, the trout, a cheese pie and finished with greek coffee and kormos and g

We've dined at Krasi before and loved it, so we were excited to try Bar Vlaha when hearing that it was from the same owners. It's a nice small, intimate restaurant for a date night or dinner out. The menu may be a bit intimidating to some with so man

Best Greek restaurant in Boston
Bar Vlaha has become my favorite restaurant of the year 2023! Food was so unique and delicious! Service was so attentive! I would always go back for an evening dine out or even special occasion celebration.

What a delightful evening! Our server, Valentina, was welcoming and friendly. Cocktail and wine delish. Beef cheeks and fried enoki mushrooms as good as everyone raves about; pastitsio also very tasty. Lovely ambiance, and unlike too many restaurants

Super cute ambience, attentive service, and the food was absolutely amazing. The lamb leg was a tad bit dry but overall will be back!
Fantastic!
I'm so glad this restaurant has come to Brookline; we need more diverse cuisines. We made reservations and had to wait a few months, but it was so worth it! Delicious food, great service, and they remembered it was a special occasion and gave us comp
New Greek food in Brookline with delicious flavor!
We celebrated our anniversary here. The food was amazing! A few of our favorites were the mushrooms, the slow cooked meat, the feta and pepper spread, and the baklava dessert. The flavors were so fresh and clean. We loved the fresh chives and dill ad
Reservations are hard to get, keep trying
The same group that developed Greco and Krasi Wine Bar also opened Bar Vlaha. I expected it to be good and it is, more rustic in style than Krasi. Food is delicious, wonderful menu, and friendly and attentive service. We loved everything we ordered -
Go for the martini and lamb chops!
Loved this spot. Started with a wonderful martini (very cold and very dry) then Greek salad with local fresh tomatoes and yummy feta and fried mushrooms with capers. Grilled lamb chops, lemon potatoes and kale/spinach combo were all on point. Sett
Not as extraordinary as hyped but still a very delicious meal
I checked out Bar Vlaha, what Eater described as “…what may be the first restaurant in the U.S. to celebrate the food of the Vlachs, an ethnic group of nomadic shepherds in northern and central Greece” This warned me not to get excited for my
Outstanding New Restaurant
Lovely restaurant in Brookline. Glasses, water pitchers, plates all add a nice touch. Open kitchen with a chef's table. Service is outstanding. Drink menu is creative, and wine is good. Now to the food....phenomenal. Spreads were wonderful - spicy wh
Connect with users posting reservations for Bar Vlaha Brookline
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Bar Vlaha Brookline. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Bar Vlaha Brookline at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Bar Vlaha Brookline page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Bar Vlaha Brookline to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Bar Vlaha Brookline!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
