Great place – This is a step up from your average bar and I highly recommend it. It's glorified bar food, but it has a great old time feel with the huge wooden bar as well as a new look with huge screens and high ceilings. Those looking for something different than Beer Garden and Junction for a casual meal, you should definitely check out A Bar.

Updated – UPDATE (5/2009) I wrote a below average review for Amrheins when it re-opened after its big renovation. Then I wrote a great review in 2007 when they hired a new chef and had a new menu that was great. Sorry to have to say that it's going down hill again. This is what happened to me. My husband and I have been going there for dinner. I very much liked the small plates they offer. I particularly liked the lobster and crab cake plate that came with 2 scallops in a lemon butter sauce. A week or so ago my husband and I... read more

Change is good! – In reading some of the other reviews, it appears many of you don't like change. I think they have done a great job at updating the old Amrheins. Southie doesn't need run down bars -- this is a great renovation for the neighborhood. I have eaten there several times -- the staff is great - friendly - and the atmosphere is fabulous. The menu has changed quite a bit from the old and I think they need to work on that. The food is good -- just good. The one carry over from the old restaurant should have been the ... read more

Down with Amrheins – My sister and I went to eat at the reopened Amrheins the other night and if just wasnt the same. The menu was pricey and didn't have a great deal to choose from like the old days. We ordered two appetizers and split one entree but the food was just not prepared right and tasted kind of stale. The soup was OK, the chicken fingers however were like plastic and the steak tips that we split were overcooked. We were also turned off as from our seats in the dining room we could hear some obnoxious woman in the... read more

AWFUL – I have been waiting for this place to open back up and now i am wishing it stayed closed. The menu is awful, there is nothing to it. The old menu was way better. They are trying to be upscale in a not so upscale neighborhood. I wouldn't go back there again.

Amhreins--completely disappointing – Ate at the new Amhreins today and the verdict is that we probably won't bother to return and see if they work out their kinks. My boyfriend's chicken parmigiana was just horrible. The sauce was clearly out of a jar and the entire dish tasted microwaved. Even a chain restaurant would be embarassed to serve this. My burger was less offensive, but nothing special (on the dry side, served with field greens and a slice of an anemic-looking tomato). The edible flowers decorating both our entree... read more

Amrhein's Boston -- Re-opened this week. – Amrhein's has finally reopened after going through an extensive renovation. The placed was completely gutted out and I must say it looks absolutely fabulous. The restaurant is the oldest bar in Boston - opened in 1890. The original hand carved bar still hangs on the wall and is quite a masterpiece. They did a fabulous job with the decor and the food was wonderful. I would say it is on the gourmet side of the fence -- with a beautiful presentation. Portions were very generous (especi... read more
