"Like Sullivan’s Tap, Theatre District dive bar the Tam closed a few years back but came back to life, mostly the same, under new ownership — a group of investors going by the name Greater Boston Bar Co. has been reviving a bunch of local bars. (One or more members of that same group are separately involved in the Silhouette in Allston and the reopening of Somerville’s Thirsty Scholar, too.) The Tam is just the right combination of no-frills and cheap beer that you’d expect from a proper dive." - Terrence Doyle, Rachel Leah Blumenthal, Erika Adams
