I was invited to try Chopped winnter, CIA graduate, OMNI Boston Hotel Executive Chef Yousef Ghalaini (@lebanesechef )'s menu at @lifted_restaurant and it was spectacular!With great skyline views of Seaport, fusion flavors of their dishes, and unique drinks, Lifted definitely has such a fun atmosphere We LOVED their salted caramel lobster roll, spicy tuna poke, and the crab louieIn addition to their rooftop pool, OMNI Boston also has a spa and live Jazz in their lobby if you stick around!What we tried:Chilled Spicy Tuna Poke Bowl (sushi rice, pickled daikon and carrot, edamame, seaweed salad, spicy mayo) Shrimp Bowl (coconut rice, bean and corn salsa, radish, and spicy curry sauce)Crab Louie (bibb lettuce, crab, pickled onion)Salted Caramel Lobster Roll (maine lobster, beurre fondue, lemon zest)Mini Smash Burger (velveeta, duck fat onions, secret sauce)Brussel Sprouts (citrus ponzu, furikake, lemon zest)Panoma mocktail (grapefruit juice mixed w/jalapeño, simply syrup, lemon juice)

I recently visited the rooftop restaurant at the Omni Hotel in Seaport Boston with my mom to celebrate her 67th birthday, expecting a memorable dining experience. Unfortunately, it was a disappointment.The menu is minimal, with just three dishes that can be called entrées, clearly catering to out-of-towners or a younger crowd more interested in the scene than the food. The fish taco, priced at $24 for two, was the worst I've had. It consisted of a single, store-bought white flour taco with room-temperature fried fish drenched in sweet cream sauce--no cilantro, no freshness. An authentic taco should feature fresh, crispy ingredients with a balance of flavors. If you enjoy this version, you need to explore real tacos to understand good food (I am unapologetic). The drinks off the menu were watered down and unremarkable, though a dirty martini was well-made. However, at $17-20, it's disappointing to be served in plastic cups. The Brussels sprouts were good, and the poke bowl was decent but far from the best. The salmon was not cold enough and poorly cut, with too much cream on the dish overall.Service started off well but then fizzled out to the point of being nonexistent. While the view might justify a visit for drinks, I wouldn't return for the food. The restaurant fails to deliver a satisfying culinary experience, overshadowed by its location and ambiance.

I came here for late night drinks. Love the fire pit outside the restaurant where the pool resides. I tried three different mocktails and they were all good!

Great lunch spot. Thoroughly enjoyed location, nice view and beautiful breeze. Food was EXCELLENT. We had 4 people and had Lobster louie salad, lobster roll and spicy tuna bowl. All three were delicious and we each enjoyed! Sangria was yummmm. Service was great. Place was pricey but good size servings and we will probably be back before we leave town!!! We were definitely NOT disappointed!

Located on the 5th floor of the Omni Seaport Hotel. The Restaurant gives a classy clean space. There is a selected menu, a bit on the pricey side, the food was excellent!The staff were welcoming and we received prompt service from our waiter.

The food here was great and the views were so fun! The ambience was really done well and feels very upbeat and lively while having a beautiful bar and seating as well as a view of their gorgeous rooftop pool area! They had a great menu with a good selection of foods to choose from that were all delicious! I will say this place was a bit pricey, but still good! We got a few tacos, lobster roll and lobster salad that was all good. We also got the GSC dips and the corn one was one of our favs! Drinks were tasty and they even had good mocktails for those who prefer to not drink!

Came here with a friend about an hour ago for restaurant week (Dine Out Boston) and i'm so glad we gave this place a try! Tried their SALTED CARAMEL LOBSTER ROLL today and it was absolutely amazing! At first i was skeptical of this salted caramel/lobster combination and thought that it sounded a bit weird but man was i wrong. The salted caramel sauce on the lobster brings out a new dimension to your regular simple buttered lobster roll. The sauce was buttery, rich, salty, warm, a tad smoky, slightly sweet, and had an addictive zing (i now call it their salted caramel crack sauce). This is easily one of the best lobster rolls that i've ever had in Boston and will give the lobster rolls at Neptune Oysters a run for its money. I hope you give their salted caramel lobster roll a try. Sooooo good! If you don't like it, come find me!Freebies: They will offer you a free $13 dollar dessert if you take a picture of yourself in front of their neon sign post across the bar and post it to your social media. Note: The restaurant is situated inside the Omni Seaport Boston Hotel. You need to take the hotel elevator up to the 5th floor to get into the restaurant. A little hidden jewel with a trendy decor. The service here was also amazing and everyone (especially our waiter Francisco) were all very welcoming, attentive, hospitable, and did not display an ounce of ego. Great vibes!

Very cozy and inviting place with holiday vibes and bright decorated Christmas trees!! Especially during a dreary rainy day made us feel very warm and welcome. Since we're staying at the hotel we also appreciated just being able to take the elevator down to the 5th floor and not have to step outside into the nasty weather the winter storm is bringing. The floor to ceiling glass windows with views of the convention center and city views are cool! Makes it feel even more cozy sitting inside in the warmth watching the weather outside.It wasn't very crowded at all - not too surprising considering it's the eve of the eve of Christmas. Also the outdoor pool was closed four to inclement weather.I ordered the crispy fish tacos and asked for the fish to be grilled not fried and they had no issues with that so I was glad. The 2 tacos came with shredded cabbage pickled onions, cilantro and lime crema. There was a side of a chipotle salsa and I added some of that to the tacos. Tacos were tasty and not too filling. I think it could have come with a few chips to eat with the salsa though because there was a lot leftover and nothing to eat it with.The hubs ordered the French toast grilled cheese sandwich which came with a huge side of fries (crinkle cut) and side of ketchup and another orange sauce that had a very interesting ginger/garlic flavor - not exactly sure what it was but it was really good with the fries. The sandwich was very ooey gooey cheesy decadent sweet and savory. There was some syrup at the bottom of the fries too. I think the whole dish must have been over a thousand calories easy! The fries were hot and fresh though and I couldn't resist eating them. We did not eat all the fries so saved ourselves from some of the caloric onslaught lol!There was also a menu on the table for artisanal hot chocolate which looked very enticing but we refrained, given the above-mentioned calorie intake. Perhaps another time though because it says the hot chocolate is limited edition by spice master Chef Lior Lev Sarcaz. So I'm really very curious and we'll have to drop by again to try that for sure!The food is great although a bit pricey probably because it's in a fancy hotel. Service was friendly - from the hostess to the server to the waitressOverall nice vibes, good service and good food!

Surprise find in a hotel bar/restaurant. First - the craft cocktails were expertly executed - and i'm a tough critic on that front. These guys nailed each one. You can't go wrong on that front. I was completely surprised by how good the lobster and shrimp salad - and big enough to share. The prices here are in line with a high end hotel - but value wise, it was a winner.

The restaurant itself was a little disorganized we arrived and there was not a host but after waiting for a few minutes a manager finally greeted us. The food was good but nothing outstanding. The Salted Carmel lobster roll was not great I would not recommend. The burger was decent. Over all not my favorite place but an okay restaurant.
