We loved our starters and the drinks were on point. However our main was very, very salty. We did send it back and it was removed from our bill. Overall the service was excellent. It was just a slight miss on the food.

The Fed is an amazing bar located inside the Langham Hotel in Boston. The bar itself has a great ambiance. The tables have comfortable seats and spacious seating. The tables are not on top of each other. The drink list is great, and the drink sizes are generous. It's worth stopping in for a drink. A++

We were staying at the hotel on the club floor. My family and I were treated very disrespectfully by our server. After waiting 45 minutes for our drinks we ultimately had the maitre’d get our bill for us as the server was nowhere to be seen.

We had oysters, crab claws, and steak frites. The seafood was outstanding as well as the steak frites which was cooked to perfection. Extra nice touch was when waiter brings the bottle of wine to the table when we ordered a 2nd glass. We will definitely be back.

We went to the Fed with a party of 5 to celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday with family. Our table was ready on arrival. The host took our coats and set us up with still and sparkling water. Our waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable. The food and drinks were spot on. I'd come back again.
