From the moment you walk into Ostra you are greeted with the aroma of great foods. Being here will guarantee your palate to be indulged in a sea of flavors. The staff is courteous and the atmosphere is happy and inviting. As an appetizer, we got the octopus. It was tender and very well seasoned.
Impeccable service and food! Nice place to celebrate. For appetizers we shared chilled king crab and the grilled octopus. Loved the grilled octopus but not so much the crab - could be just a personal taste. Both main dishes (monkfish and sea bream) were great and portions were pretty big.
Great ambience and amazing food in general. Service is wonderful. The octopus tastes too spicy and salty and bitter, but they did not charge us for this dish. Paella is my favorite one! First time trying the salt crusted branzino, so juicy and delicious! Will definitely revisit again

This was a beautiful restaurant with great atmosphere! The details in the decor are stunning with ocean design. The open kitchen is surrounded by small planters of fresh herbs and polished pans hanging above. The table setting is so impressive. The staff are friendly, professional and attentive.

Everything was top-notch. We started with the Tuna tar tar and the lobster gnocchetti. My wife had the black bass and I went with the seafood paella. Both were amazing. The service was the best we experience in Boston, Conner (?) took excellent care of us.
Ostra has been one of my favorite restaurants in Boston. The food is consistent and the service is always great.
My favorite there is sea bream… always perfect.
I would say they never have any specials… because I go there so often, i think it is about time for Ostra to change the menu a little bit b
