I've been here a few times to see music artists and have always enjoyed the experience. Dining and drinks are available, but I go for the music and am never disappointed.
This venue/winery/restaurant has the aesthetics down pat. Food was quite good but I can't speak to the wine, not being much of a vinofile myself. What I really want to commend is a moderately sized performance venue that actually put the emphasis on the sound and sonic environment. I was lucky enough to catch Consider the Source (otherworldly music and musicians) when I was in town. The sound mix was vibrant and alive without the usual deafening, muddy mix I experience so often at live music events this size.
I would give City Winery five stars for customer service alone. They were quick and helpful answering my questions over email. We saw Nick Waterhouse, which was excellent. The food and table service was really good. A really fun experience!

The venue is really spacious, aesthetically pleasing, and COVID conscious, but the food leaves something to be desired. The margherita pizza was just okay, and we ordered meatballs as the only other food item, which took an hour to get out of the kitchen despite the place being almost empty when we came. Their wine flights are fine, but I would only come here again if I had a large gathering of some sort as you can find a better solo/duo meal experience at other restaurants in the area.
Finally a night out in Boston again. This time I took my wife out for dinner and concert. Nia Ashleigh and her band was wonderful. I will go see here again. Oh yes, two thumbs up for the food at City Winery. The Malbec was on point too.
This was my first time and certainly not my last! I went to the show for Silvana Estrada and had amazing drinks and amazing food. The service was awesome and the show was excellent! I highly recommend the burger and the margarita pizza. I enjoyed a captain and coke fromTheir full bar.
We had a chance to visit the City Winery during our recent weekend in Boston. A great little music venue - we heard Marc Cohen. Large enough to attract some descent acts but small enough to seem fairly intimate. We think this place could really get hopping after the Covid mess passes us by. Very central to Fanueil Hall and the North End Food and drinks were just ok. The show was the central attraction.

Since it's called City Winery, I gave it three stars. Our server was really nice and understanding, but that's the extent of it. It was freezing cold. Several patrons had their coats on, including us! The food left much to be desired. The duck tostada was salty and the sauce was kind of plopped on there. Probably shouldn't be called a tostada either. More like a chip. Meh. Ravioli not worth the price.However, you can drink the wine and be decently satisfied. I would go sit at the bar but wouldn't go for dinner again.
