Shirley​の楽しい雰囲気のレストラン

An outstanding venue in downtown Groton - wonderful food, good wine list, thoughtful service.

I think this is the best restaurant food in Boston right now, really outstanding. The wine program is exclusively Greek, the list is huge, the grape varieties unfamiliar and unpronounceable, but the waitstaff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The restaurant struggles to keep wines in stock; I ordered two bottles that were not available that night. The place is crowded and noisy, the patrons generally young and hip, lots of fun.

We had reservations on a Monday night due to the high demand because of the Christmas Pop up. The restaurant was beautifully decorated. People were taking walking around the taking pictures throughout the restaurant. We were sat at our table right away. Our waitress was very nice. We started with Garlic Knots which we both liked. I had the Bolognese which I enjoyed very much. My girlfriend had the braised short ribs which she also enjoyed. If you can get reservations we both recommend it.

Super fun girls' night out. Loved the vibe. Food and service were both excellent. Music and conversation are noisy so be prepared. Will come again!

I ordered the arancini and eggplant parm. The arancini was tasty but both could have been hotter. It seemed a bit like the eggplant was assembled and reheated rather than prepared fresh. The sauce has great flavor. We had a nice evening and the meal was well paced. The restaurant was not as crowded as normal and I feel like if we were there on a Sat night things mights have been a bit tastier.
