We're a creative Italian neighborhood eatery. We believe that the way we cook meals and interact with our community should be kind and attentive. And, like you, we understand the importance of a nice dinner shared with friends. MIDA. It literally means "he gives me." And each meal we prepare is intended to be a unique present for you. We hope to see you in the near future. We would be delighted to be a part of your event or special occasion, and would be delighted to reserve a piece of the restaurant or offer meals for your in-home or business gathering. Please be aware that neither of our MIDA locations has a private dining room. To make a request, please use the form found in the private events page of our website, or send any enquiries to events@midaboston.com. We can’t wait to be a part of your event! Patio reservations are only available on the same day. Request terrace seating the day of your reservation by calling the restaurant. Due to our limited capacity and to ensure the safest atmosphere possible, we kindly request that customers respect a 90-minute meal period. “We decided to come for our Anniversary dinner it was not only the best food we've ever had but the staff and chef made us feel like family. YOU MUST EAT HERE!!!” -Sarah R. “To say that we loved MIDA might be an understatement. From the food, to the service, and everything in between, MIDA made it worth it to travel into Boston on a Monday night in the middle of a boiling hot summer’s day for dinner… Just take our money. We can’t wait to go back.” -Katy N.

We work with youth, ages 16-24, who are in the foster care system, court-involved, homeless, out of school, parenting, or involved with the Department of Mental Health. At More Than Words, our young people earn a spot on our team running a successful $4M business, gain promotions, set and achieve personal goals, advocate for their rights, and learn skills to set them up for success in any career path they choose. Because too often our young people are treated for their problems rather than engaged as part of their own solution. In our work-based social enterprise, youth experience a real job and all that comes with it: a paycheck, a sense of mattering when a team relies on them, feedback and performance reviews, promotions and leadership. More Than Words started as the "book people" and we still are - but we are so much more. Our social enterprises are the vehicle for youth transformation and as we've grown we've innovated with new vehicles and new ways to connect with our community.

She is professional, attentive, fun and very welcoming every time we come in. She has absolutely become our "go to" to ensure myself and my group have the best experience possible.

We came in on Friday to celebrate an anniversary. The food was so tasty and awesome but the service was even better and made all the difference. Nancy was super fun and so cool she made us felt like top priority but not overbearing. We never had to ask for a thing. She's a mind reader. The drinks are incredible. If you want to impress your party or that special one, come in here. Ask about Nancy. It's Monday and we're still talking about Empire. Highly recommend.” -Anna D.

The beautiful ballroom, perched atop Strawberry Hill, has enormous windows overlooking our championship golf course and a panoramic view of the Boston cityscape. We'd be delighted to help you plan a memorable occasion! With the value and simplicity of a wedding package plan, the Oakley Country Club, which was founded in 1898, continues its long reputation of great food and service. For retirement parties, employee appreciation dinners, fundraisers, and holiday parties, we are glad to offer a range of menu selections. Showers, baptisms, reunions, and birthday parties are all held in the ballroom. Contact us immediately to start planning your 50-300 person special event. The ballroom at Oakley Country Club can accommodate up to 205 guests and boasts the coveted middle-of-the-room dance floor, giving all of your guests a perfect view of your special day. The appropriate place to start your event is in a separate cocktail area with a view of the Boston skyline and our beautiful golf course. In a devastating fire in 1962, the old Oakley Clubhouse was destroyed. It was replaced by a new clubhouse, which was rebuilt in 1998 to match the original Bulfinch building's lines. The Club's efforts to maintain the charm of a New England rural estate while delivering best-in-class country club accommodations are being bolstered by the 2018-19 clubhouse renovations. The configuration of the course has remained unchanged since the last Ross re-design in 1910. In 2004, the Club hired restoration architects to look over the century-old Ross plans and realign the bunkers and greens to match the Master's layout. Oakley is a landlocked city club. Because our architect's greatest talent was his ability to route fairways, our 85 precious acres allow us an extraordinarily efficient 6,000 yard course!

Coquette serves fresh seafood, a hot-and-cold raw bar, flatbreads, and upmarket libations in a relaxed ambiance inspired by the flavors of the Basque Country along the Spanish-French coastline. Coquette, which sits cross-legged and sipping a martini on the ground floor of the new Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport, is right across the street from the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, so it'll be a popular spot for visiting professionals to meet for a nightcap before retiring to a room upstairs. Coquette is also the newest addition to COJE Management Group's growing portfolio, which includes Yvonne's, Mariel, Ruka, and Lolita, among other popular, vampy locations for fashionable dining, drinking, and socializing in Boston. Expect Coquette's lovely decor and delectable menu, which features twists on coastal French cuisine, to draw a large number of residents seeking for love at first sight and bite. Inside the 240-seat restaurant, a delicate and beautiful pastel-leaning color scheme of blues, pinks, and lavender has been used. The walls have a slightly iridescent sheen that reminds me of the inside of a nicely formed oyster shell, and there are dried, preserved flowers displayed in seasonal, installation-like groupings developed by East Olivia of New York. Meanwhile, a soundproofed ceiling above the four-sided bar is covered in a replica of François Lemoyne's The Apotheosis of Hercules, a rococo ceiling painting at Versailles known for its beautiful detail (as well as the tortured genius of the artist, who fell on his own sword shortly after). The dining room mural, which is a reproduction of Art Nouveau icon Alphonse Mucha's The Seasons, a series of paintings of nymph-like females representing spring, summer, fall, and winter, has been given a modern aesthetic flourish.
