I've been wanting to go to ten tables for quite some time as I had read good things about it and heard good things from friends. First, I do like the atmosphere there. The decor was nice and our service was friendly and... (more)

I have tried to get a reservation at Ten Tables on several occasions, and was unsuccessful. One needs to look no further than the quality of the food and the name of the restaurant to explain why: seating is limited.... (more)

I have only eaten at Ten Tables once, but before eating, I heard nothing but great things! When I called for reservations, the guy at the other end of the line was really accommodating to my idiosyncratic changes. Very... (more)

I have to agree with another reviewer - don't go here on a hot day . However, that would prove to be only the beginning of a bad night out for my wife and me. We were the first to arrive at 5:30 and were seated in a little... (more)

Took my wife to Ten Tables last night (6/10/08) for our 2nd anniversary. Food and Service were terrific, but the heat level was absolutely stifling. Waitstaff did the best they could keeping water glasses filled,... (more)

Young area professionals crowd this charming, single-room establishment with an open kitchen and--surprise--only ten tables. A diverse soundtrack (which features Southern blues some nights), exposed brick... (more)

Creative yet unpretentious food, served in a cozy (literally, 10 tables) atmosphere with open kitchen. Great flavors, excellent service - an overall great experience. Perfect for romantic dinner or small... (more)

there are ten tables here literally. You can watch the chef cook in front of you. Very economical if you are on a budget. The service was solid but not overly friendly; the mood romantic. Try them out... (more)

I had been wanting to try TenTables for a long time and recently got a chance to. Our night got off to a bad start perhaps when we saw which of the ten tables was to be ours - there is a table right by / in the doorway that we drew... (more)

We had been wanting to try Ten Tables for a while based on a friend's recommendation from two years ago, but we were a little nervous seeing some of the reviews from the spring and summer. We tried it anyway and were... (more)

I went to this restaurant with some friends, one of whom had recommended this restaurant. However, the service was bad and the food was tasteless. The decor was actually fine, and the table settings and dining room... (more)

My first meal at Ten Tables was really extraordinary- perfect in every way. (including the best brandade I've ever eaten!) Every time I've gone back since then, it's been a little less stellar. The menu is very... (more)

I've heard such great things about Ten Tables. My friend David who has exquisite taste in food even loves this place. So it was quite a disappointment for me when I finally made it there. The first time I didn't realize I... (more)

Awful. Never have I been treated so poorly. Forget about making a reservation with the owner of this establishment. Even if you do, she will kick you out in the cold in the dead of winter for more than 20 minutes without... (more)

Last Saturday I had a reservation for four at Ten Tables in Jamaica Plain. I had eaten there before and had a fabulous experience. When I arrived for my 8 o'clock reservation, my table wasn't available. Since the... (more)

This place is terrible. My wife and I went there for a nice, relaxing dinner after a long hot summer day. We had to wait oustide for 1/2 hour even though we had a reservation. The restaurant was hotter inside than outside... (more)

Ten tables is one of the more expensive places to eat in JP but is worth a visit. The food is very good and fresh, but the portions are very small. This is a very cozy restaurant. The kitchen is visible, which enhances the... (more)

Great ambiance, great waitstaff, tasty food.but couldnt understand the concept of lilliputian portions in gargantuan dishes. Organic local ingredients cost more and portions need to be scaled down to offer... (more)

The food at Ten Tables is reasonable good and the ambience is fun, with actually only ten tables. However the service is horriable. The worst I have ever had in a restaurant. I was part of a large group and the directed us... (more)

It's great that this place exists in the heart of JP. Formerly Perdix, this upscale boite serves extremely refined fare just steps from the neon glare of pizza shops and ice cream stores. Very small, as name implies,... (more)

This restaurant is worth a try. It has, you guessed it, ten tables, so the place is small. Good for a date, or with a couple friends maybe. Food is simple, prices fairly affordable and the service great. Portions are the... (more)

For whatever reason, I had to be prodded a little into going to Ten Tables. However, I was very pleasantly surprised to find a cozy little room with a great open kitchen to watch the chefs. The menu is short and sweet, but... (more)

Very cozy restaurant. If you don't mind sitting with a view to the kitchen, this is a great little place- the food is cooked to perfection. Ask not to be seated near the door during the winter month's!... (more)

A great little restaurant in a great Boston neighborhood. Consistently inventive and excellent food. Small and intimate but not at all cramped or crowded. Chic in a comfortable and casual way. Attentive,... (more)

Had a fantastic dinner with my boyfriend here. Food was fabulous. Service was very attentive and helpful (explaining ingredients, helping with wine selection, etc). The wine list was short, but very good value.... (more)
