Colette had pretty good drinks! I had the passionista and someone else had the berry basil smash (which was mint instead of basil since they had run out). Both drinks were strong, but still had great flavor! Just taking one star off since the lighting was quite bright when we were there, even though it was a Friday night. The servers seemed very friendly though!

Extraordinary addition to the theater district/midtown Boston. Friendly staff, everyone with energy to spare. Great music. I sampled the following drinks:Pimms CupFruity liqueur cut with ginger beer and lemon juice, so doesn't taste too sweet, begs for seconds. Louisiana ExpressSweet punch, perhaps too sweet, but the guava plays happily with vodka. Whattamelon BaePerhaps not always on the menu, but if you're in the mood for an ice cold slurry of watermelon and vodka, lemon and rosemary, you're in luck. Finally, and of course, the vaunted mac and cheese should be on every human's bucket list. Gooey and garlic infused. Cozy, great drinks, great music, there's nothing not to like here.

Good cocktails in well-lit space. To find Colette Lounge look for a sign that says "the Shaking Crab" and then enter through the corresponding door. We visited Colette Lounge on a Saturday night and it was completely empty, but they still had the music turned up loud. The design of Colette Lounge is open (presumably so people can stand near the bar after receiving their drinks). The lounge looks a bit cheap from the floor, to the tables, and finally to the decorations. The drink I ordered was tasty though, and because I wanted to catch up with friends, the emptiness of the bar was beneficial. Overall, I would not recommend Colette Lounge for the ambiance, but I would for the drinks.

This lounge is very cute. If you're looking for a cozy place to grab a bite and a drink in the city, then look no further. I came here on a Friday night and it was surprisingly slow. The service was fast, the staff was super friendly, and the music was also on point. For food I had the chicken sandwich was absolutely delicious. I was blown away by how tasty it was, it exceeded my expectations. It came with fries which were both crispy and soft which I love. And for a drink, I tried the Passionista. Since I'm not a Vodka person the bartender was more than happy to substitute it for white rum and I also asked to add in peach schnapps for added sweetness and it was so yummy. Overall, I highly recommend this place. Perfect for a hang out with friends, or even a date!Note: there are no reservations for this lounge, it's first come first served.

Colette was small and quaint. They had fun drinks and we had great service as we were the only ones there! The fried calamari was good and the cocktails were exciting. One of the drinks gets you a free Polaroid photo to remember the moment too. I liked the little mean girls movie references that I saw at Colette

If I we're flat broke, I'd a rob a bank for their Mac N CHEESE. It'd be worth several years of imprisonment.They advertise that they serve small bites but the portions are sizable. I also ordered the chicken wings which were tasty, but I was blown away with the Mac and cheese. It was gooey and served in a skillet.Collette is intimate with a red aura. A perfect date spot! I went on a Saturday night and there only 3 other groups there. But that can be the case for a lot of Boston restaurants during the end of summer.My bartender was friendly, warm and personable. The host was a bit cold and which almost led me to writing a four star review, but their playlist made up for it because it mostly top 40, hip hop and Afrobeats which is my VIBEEE.

This place is conveniently located in the Boston Common area and I highly recommend it.the staff are super nice and the decor is cute, without being overwhelming. Could work for a night out with friends, colleagues or dates. The menu has a Southern twist - We tried the fried corn on the cob, mac and cheese/pulled pork, catfish (yum!) and some cocktails- all memorable and worth a try!

Came during the launch party and I am so excited to see what the future holds for Colette! The decorations, lighting and ambiance is perfect for all occasions - girls night out, catching up with some friends, date night, you name it. The drinks menu was actually very impressive. I'm not a big fan of tequila but I have to say their Southern Hospitality drink may have been my favorite. Their menu covers all the bases - you're bound to find a drink you'll enjoy. Food was delicious as well. Everything was packed with flavor and wasn't too overwhelming. The food menu features a lot of seafood and everything tasted like great quality. Highly recommend checking this place out!

The place is located in the same space as Shaking Crab. So, you could also order food from them. But it took us 3 rounds to find this place since the sign was not located outside the building. Due to the busyness of bars in Boston, we went ahead and called the place to make sure, and there was a table for us. Our server was so friendly. The cocktails were tasty. As we enjoyed our drinks, more people came in. The place is charming, and I like the crowds.
