A bird's eye view of Boston

🌅 Amar: Boston’s Waterfront Gem—Sunset Views, Fancy Vibes, and a Worthy Splurge I rarely eat at “fancy” restaurants these days, but something about this sunny afternoon sparked the urge. Booked a last-minute 5:30 PM slot at Amar, and man, it was the perfect call to soak up Boston’s summer waterfront vibe. (Pro tip: They open the curtains at 7:30 PM—don’t miss the sunset 🌇.) ✨ The Vibe: Next-Level Ambiance Perched on the 17th floor of a swanky downtown hotel, the space is stunning. Think factory-high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and unobstructed views—bright, airy, and so Boston. Service? Top-tier. Attentive, knowledgeable, and just the right amount of warmth (like hanging with a friend who knows their stuff). 🍴 The Food: Fancy, with a Few Standouts Apps: Small portions, but (refined). The grilled octopus stole the show—tender, charred, and paired with salty chickpeas that balanced the seafood perfectly. Mains: Overall, on the saltier side—but as someone who loves bold flavors, it worked. The cod was buttery-soft, the paella rice creamy and chewy, and both hit the spot. Dessert: The rice pudding? Chef’s kiss. It’s got that cozy Asian-inspired vibe with a fancy twist—creamy, slightly sweet, and the ideal end. 💸 The Price Tag: Yep, It’s Fancy No surprises here—this level of ambiance, service, and location comes with a pretty price. But for a sunny afternoon splurge, watching the sunset over Boston? Totally worth it. 📍 Amar: 40 Trinity Pl. If you’re craving a fancy date night or a “treat yourself” moment, this is it. #BostonFineDining #SunsetViews #WaterfrontEats
