Wowowow! I've said this before but Boston has a lot of big trendy spots that don't end up being worth the hype, but this is a true phenomenon!! Kava was such a beautiful vibe, especially with the outdoor seating in these last bits of warm w
Came here on a recommendation from a friend.
Made a reservation same day - came here right when they opened. Had the entire restaurant to ourselves. I looked at ester the waitress and said "take me to Athens" Boy did she. Everything here from the salt to the water to the milk they
Great food great atmosphere.
Just not full bar. Zucchini chips are my favorite! Highly recommend
South End Sampling
Fantastic food here, very authentic and with a nice selection of different dishes. Our waitress (Charlize) was wonderful, and she even came close to pronouncing the dishes correctly! The only issue was with the prices. ~$19 for many small plates.

I kinda don't want to leave this review because it's already hard to get a table here as is but!!!! BEST Greek food in Boston!!! Great ambiance, service, wine, music and dessert!!!

Cute little spot in a quiet South End neighborhood with a cozy outdoor seating area. We sat outside and really enjoyed the ambiance--though I did get bitten by a few mosquitos, so maybe bring bug spray? Service was fine--not overly warm, but nothing

Hands down some of the most authentic Greek food I've had outside Greece! I 100% reccomend if you're visiting Boston. LOCATION: Spot is in a cute area with both indoor and outdoor seating. I would recommend coming with a reservation. I fel

All I really need to say is that when I shared a picture from here on my IG story, all my local friends were like THAT'S MY FAV SPOT! It truly held up to its reputation. Everything was so good, portions were well sized, and the atmosphere pleasa
Average
Food was fairly good but not awesome. A bit heavy. Short ribs with orzo better labeled orzo with a little bit of short ribs. Hostess was RUDE but server was lovely.
Highly recommended by Bostonians who had eaten here before.
The food was lovely with a wonderful waitperson. The problems: 1. wonderful dips were ordered and when delivered we were told that Kava had run out of pita (the only bread they serve). Well no dips. 2. Now, although we did have a 9:00 p.m. reserva

This is one of my favourite restaurants in the city and some of the best Greek food I've ever had. The zucchini chips are a must. The octopus is consistently great in flavor but hit-or-miss on tenderness. I've had it tough some times and te

Veggie haters, prepare to be converted by the zucchini chips here! Of course frying veggies and burying them in tartar sauce is a classic way to trick you into higher fiber intake but Kava pulls it off smoothly enough that it feels healthy. It's
Too Rushed to Enjoy & Food was Mediocre-at-best.
I visited for the first time Kava Neo-Taverna for dinner with a friend. We both love Greek food so the choice was simple. The waitress was at first accommodating like asking for drinks and if we had questions but it become obtrusive when she hovere
KAVA Review
My dining experience at Kava was a pleasant one. What makes Kava stand out from its competitors is the quality and time invested in delivering authentic Greek food at a reasonable price. It's charming nature and rustic setting accompanied by the

Leon was AMAZING and the food was Fabulous!!! Getting a reservation is tough but worth it. I’d would definitely go back again.
Delightful service and exceptional modern Greek. Yum.
Wow! We went here for lunch on a gorgeous weekend summer day in Boston's South End. Exceptional in every respect. Great atmosphere--cute little interior and a lovely patio outside. Outstanding service--the servers were working as a team an

This used to be my favorite restaurant in Boston - very authentic, full of flavor, and great service. My last visit was kinda meh: Service was mostly still kind (depends on who we interacted with), atmosphere in a Saturday agreeing was really vibran
Great food.
One of my favorites in the city. Every single time we come in, we leave more impressed than the last.

There is nothing bad to say about this place, except that it isn't bigger and I can't eat there every night. They specialize in small plates, and it's best to go with several people and share. Their menu seems to have small changes periodically, but
Usually love Kava- great food nice staff.
Had a poor experience last night, the wait staff was staring & hovering for the last 30 mins of our meal. All of us felt uncomfortable and unwelcome. Eventually the hostess told us we needed to leave because another reservation needed our table.
AMAZING.
10/10 best Greek food I've found in Boston. I take every guest I have visiting here and only great things to say. The zucchini fritters are a MUST!

The food here is phenomenal but more remarkably, they have managed to emulate the ambience and liveliness of a European restaurant in the city, so going here almost feels like a mini-vacation. We had the baked feta, the sea bass, feta psiti, braised
Small, cozy place with good service.
Everyone raves about the zucchini chips (kolokithakia). They were good but the crispy eggplant at sister restaurant Ilona blow these out of the water. The lamb meatballs were actually the highlight of this meal--very juicy and flavorful. The eggplant
Very good, but the menu is small.
One needs to love seafood. Parking is non-existent.
Very cute spot with authentic style Greek food.
The location is great and very cute inside. There were two of us so we got a few things to try. We got the Greek fries, cauliflower, olives, anchovies, dolmades, octopus, and the roka salad. They also provide bread and oil. We think only the Greek fr

Just love this place! Everything is seasoned to perfection! It is a small spot with maybe 20 tables. In the warmer months they add a lot of outdoor seating. Everton the menu is delicious!
Outstanding Greek food whose specialty is small seafood
Outstanding Greek food whose specialty is small seafood offerings. My husband and I shared $200 worth of food over two meals. My favorites were the grilled octopus, the halloumi, and the fried zucchini. We got it for takeout, but the ambiance is smal

I have only heard great things about Kava - 3 separate people recommended this place to me. Now I wish they hadn't, because I went in with very high expectations, but ended up not being impressed with the food. It is very likely that I am simply no

This place blew it out of the water for me! Their cocktails are delicious (I went with the spicy marg - 10/10), and my friend and I shared a handful of things: the dip trio (tzatziki, hummus, & eggplant); crispy honey goat cheese, lamb meatballs,

Incredible food and exceptional service, highly recommend for a great meal and super cute for a date night!!
Superb dining experience.
Outstanding food and service! Very fresh high quality ingredients. You can tell the food has been made with love and great care. The branzino was one of the best we've had in the city. Zuchini chips were next level good. Cocktails were outstanding an
Just OK
We ate here for dinner as a last minute Ute decision. This is a quaint little restaurant in the most beautiful section of the back bay. Nice setting in a tightly packed dining room. However, the music was way too loud…we could barely hear the wai
Delicious piece of Ellada in beautiful South End.
It's hard not to love this place. First, there is their location in a picture-perfect Sound End intersection, close to many other great restaurants and coffee shops. Their prices are fair, certainly on the high end but you get your money's worth. And
Excellent restaurant - outstanding GF
This is an excellent restaurant 100% Greek food and drinks Excellent menu and service Nice vibe and atmosphere- tables inside and out (with heaters) Our daughter is coeliac and therefore cannot eat gluten. The staff were 100% up to speed with a marke
Nice night
Good food nice people went in October and had the dinner outside ! Greek wine was excellent. Had moussaka and octopus both I recommend.
Greek cuisine at its finest.
Lovely night for an outdoor dining experience. Very nice mocktail of watermelon and lemonade. We shared small plates of white anchovies, grilled tiger shrimp, a watermelon, feta salad, oven roasted cauliflower, and potatoes with lemon and olive oil.
Delicious!
We have actually dined there twice while visiting Boston. It is a small place with a lot of charm and excellent service… But let’s talk about the food, I’ve been to Greece a couple of times and I can honestly say they do a great job. If you’r

Had lunch at Kava last week and we were really pleased! Ambiance is great...the restaurant is clean, in a great location, and is well designed and decorated. Service is friendly and food came out quickly. Food is delicious: loved the imam, the lem

The fish here was according to my partner the best he's had in Boston. The salad and zucchini were both delicious, and very filling. Service was very attentive. If making reservations, would request a table other than the corner.This is definitely a
Just overall solid experience.
Fresh, tasty food, and small but enjoyable atmosphere. We had reservations for 4:00 on a Sunday and the place was hopping. Good for small groups. We had 4 small plates. See pictures. All tasty but the most popular was the kolokithaki and it delivered

Love love this place amazing food very authentic feels like homemade food ! The staff were very friendly and the place was so cozy it took me back to Greece! Will come back to try more dishes
Made a reservation here.
When I arrived they turned us away--apparently they overbooked? No apology. Rude staff. Rude host. Tried calling to make another reservation and was greeted by an even worse response than before. I can't believe how far the stick is up these people's
Came to kava post work to grab some drinks and apps.
Unfortunately they don't do reservations but they were able to accommodate us at the bar. It was pretty loud so not ideal situation for discussion. The bartender was nice and attentive. We got spicy marg , Negroni, and cucumber tonic. All solid drink
Better than we've eaten in Greece
Arrived on a busy Saturday evening. Buzzing loud restaurant - full of energy. We had a range of small plates - chargrilled octopus, souvlaki, lamb meatballs, oven roasted beets with skordalia, and deep fried zucchini with the best tzatziki ever. Min

by far, THE BEST Greek cuisine I have ever enjoyed! brings me back to the greek kitchen of my neighbors, where I grew up eating spanakorizo, grilled lamb, and dolmades. KAVA delivers that same repast, but more refined. btw, they have BEST kolokithak

The food here was so good! The zucchini chips are a must - it was so light and crispy and tasted great with the tzatziki. The greek sausages were also a great app - not sure what the sauce was that came with it but it was sweet-ish and paired great w
Good vibes and ambiance.
The wine here is great. Get the zucchini and the egg plant. The view by the window is beautiful and you get to see the brick stone of south boston.

It's named one of the best restaurants in Boston for a reason. Highly recommend everything on the menu (even dessert) but everyone has got to try the zucchini chips

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to KAVA neo-taverna Boston at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the KAVA neo-taverna Boston page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at KAVA neo-taverna Boston to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at KAVA neo-taverna Boston!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
