What people say about Krasi
Krasi’s Greek wines list, friendly attitude, meze from the region, breads, cheeses, octopus, lamb, and the enjoyment of allowing the waiters to help in ordering are highly praised by clients. The atmosphere is quite noisy, and it is difficult to get a reservation, which, for many visitors, is considered to be the proof of popularity. The loudness of the restaurant is mentioned most frequently as a disadvantage, and in some rare cases, the food is described as cold or as the service not reaching the usual level.
About Krasi
In Greek, krasi translates to wine, and the Back Bay restaurant takes this aspect of the experience rather seriously. With a cellar that covers the gamut of Greek producers and a kitchen that showcases regional meze as opposed to the familiar American interpretations of Greek food.
Cheese, cured meats, dips, vegetable platters, seafood, pasta, lamb, chicken, and braises allow a group many options from which to construct their meal. Ordering from various sections of the menu allows guests to sample a progression of salty, smoky, bright, rich, and herbal foods.
The restaurant is situated at Gloucester Street, in proximity to Newbury Street and Hynes Convention Center. There is an option to make online reservations via OpenTable, which is highly recommended since the dinner seating tends to run out pretty fast.
The key feature of the place for customers looking for a Greek restaurant or wine bar in Boston is a combination of regional food and an extensive Hellenic wine list. It may help to have the advice of the staff since the grape varietals may not be well known.
