A hip Spanish tapas/wine place on the higher end with a menu that never goes wrong. When the weather is nice, we suggest getting a table on the patio so that you can enjoy the beauty of Brookline brownstones. Show up early to avoid long lines. Price: $$$

The highest spot in Boston where you can enjoy 360-degree night view of the city. You can either reserve a table for a better view ($24/person minimum spend) or just grab a cup of drink by the bar. Their cocktails is really good, and I like the appetizer and snack as well. I wouldn't recommend their entree, though. Live jazz music at night. It's a "must-go" in Boston. Dress code: business casual.
