✨ Boston's Hidden Treasure Restaurant :Yvonne's
🕯️ Yvonne's: Boston’s 1920s-Inspired Speakeasy—A Gatsby-Esque Feast for the Senses Step into a world of 1920s glamour at this hidden speakeasy—think The Great Gatsby come to life. Tucked behind a wig shop, with a secret bookshelf door that opens to opulence, it’s more than a restaurant; it’s an experience. 🏛️ The Ambiance: Old-World Luxury Entrance: A theatrical reveal—wander through a wig salon, then push open a bookshelf to enter. Instantly, you’re in a grand, Art Deco-inspired space. Design: Crystal chandeliers, velvet seats, and a (mahogany) bar set the tone. The ceiling, adorned with 30,000 decorative pieces, is a work of art. The library-style bar, lined with books, adds intimacy—dim lighting and rich textures make every corner feel like a private club. Vibe: Mysterious, luxurious, and effortlessly cool—perfect for photos (think moody, vintage-inspired shots) or sipping cocktails in style. 🍽️ The Standout Dishes Steak Tartare 🥩 • Silky, melt-in-your-mouth raw beef mixed with capers, lavender aioli, and truffle honey. The truffle aroma lingers, while the honey adds a subtle sweetness—decadence in every bite. Thai Octopus 🐙 • Tender, perfectly cooked octopus (never rubbery) served with coconut broth, maitake mushrooms, and peas. The coconut’s creaminess balances the seafood’s brininess, with a hint of Thai spice to brighten it up. Seared King Trumpet Mushrooms 🍄 • A vegetarian showstopper: meaty mushrooms with Middle Eastern spices, paired with yogurt and roasted cauliflower. Earthy, tangy, and surprisingly satisfying. Lazy Lobster Dumplings 🥟 • Plump dumplings stuffed with chunks of lobster, drizzled with black truffle butter and crispy shallots. Rich, indulgent, and worth every penny—lobster lovers, rejoice. Seared Brussels Sprouts 🥬 • Roasted to caramelized perfection, tossed with walnuts and goat cheese. Sweet, nutty, and cheesy—proof veggies can steal the spotlight. La Bête Noire 🍰 • A stunner of a dessert: Valrhona chocolate mousse layered with mulberries, served with pistachio ice cream. The chocolate is intense but balanced by tart fruit, while the ice cream adds a nutty crunch. It’s as beautiful as it is delicious—mandatory for photos. 🥂 The Drinks Craft cocktails lean into the speakeasy vibe—think classics with a twist (try something with bourbon or elderflower) to match the retro glamour. 📍 The Details Location: Hidden behind a wig shop (address undisclosed, but seek out the salon—you’ll know you’re close). Pro Tip: Make reservations well in advance—this spot is incredibly popular. Arrive early to soak in the ambiance before your table is ready. #BostonSpeakeasy #1920sGlam #FineDining #HiddenGem
