Go here several times a year because it is consistently among the best meals in Boston: inventive without being silly, seasonal, deeply flavored. Service and wine list are very good, decor tastefully unobtrusive. One of the few "safe" recommendations I would make in Boston and better than most of the famous competitors. more

If the bill wasn't quite so steep, I'd have given Lumiere 5 stars -- the food is that good. The setting is cosy, the staff friendly and welcoming, and the food delicious. So if you are prepared to pay, I wholeheartedly recommend Lumiere. more

I'm withholding judgement until I can go outside of restaurant week. It made a poor showing then, but I want to go again for real. more

Fine dining close to home, though priced to match. We had an enjoyable dinner here. more

Went for winter restaurant week. Very inventive flavor combinations. I really liked my cauliflower-leek soup with a dollop of curried crab salad in the middle. The entrees were a bit more traditional but solidly so. Desserts were also full of flavor. more

Nice for an evening out. It is a bit too well lit for me - I prefer Ariadne which has soft lighting and an atmosphere conducive to a long lingering evening eating. That said, food is very good. more
