I went to Milkweed after Black Friday in 2020 and it was the bees knees. Even amongst the pandemic, the restaurant managed to maintain its shine and sparkle. The ambience was warm, inviting and cozy. I went with my good friend Beatrice and we split the parmesan truffle fries, the salmon cakes and the green thai curry salmon. (I like salmon). The portions were huge so it was smart to share our plates. The apps were decent I liked the fries more than the salmon cakes, but the green thai curry salmon was divine. Not an ounce of flavor was missing in that dish. The salmon's fattiness balanced well with the warm curry sauce and jasmine rice. They make some mean drinks too. The traditional Irish coffee tasted like a handcrafted latte from Starbucks and I don't even drink coffee. I badly wanted a dessert dish, but sadly had no space for it. It's located on Tremont Street, so parking can be very tricky and risky if you're not familiar with Boston streets and traffic. The storefront is closer to Roxbury Crossing T Station than Brigham's Circle. In regards to being COVID-19 compliant, they had plastic barriers in between tables and hand sanitizer readily available. Our server Elian, donned a mask, gloves and stood back several feet from the table. It's not a huge space, but big enough where you don't feel cramped where you're sitting; there were even a couple booths near the bar. The staff were super friendly and helpful and wore milkweed branded clothes which I'm sure contributes to the team spirit. Although I came for dinner, I cannot wait to return for brunch in the imminent future. Check it out!

Mexican and Black ... Minority approved ā This was absolutely one of the best experiences that I've had thus fourth in Boston!!!! I was very observant of all the plates being served to the nearby guest however decided to try the Spanish omelette and the Nutella croissants with blueberries and strawberries š„š„š„š„. I would agree that the other plates still look very appetizing and definitely will be coming back, had the best service from Alejandro !!!!! Left a $20 tip on a $40 tab.

What a terrific experience. The aesthetics are great with modern city contrasts. All the staff are attentive during breakfast. Food presentation was beautiful and flavors are all on point especially the crisp bacon. We will be back
