I spent last weekend in Boston, and the weather was perfect for rooftop bars and dining. It was perfect enough that we looked for rooftop meals/bars almost every night. I gave the Rooftop at Revere 2 stars because one of two drinks was good, and the view is wonderful.
My partner wanted a glass of wine, but all they sold was half bottles - this isn't terrible, but by buying a half bottle, she was locked into her choice for at least to drinks.
The food was terrible. We ordered two flatbreads that sounded good. One was a basic mozarrela/tomato/basil and the other was a chicken tikka masala. The basic one had a balsamic drizzle that had potential, but the lack of flavor in the bread, cheese, and basil meant that it was the only flavor, and the flatbread as a whole was quite underwhelming. The chicken tikka masala was dry and flavorless. Even worse for both, is that when they were delivered, they were barely warm, if not air temperature. I realized that was the case because the kitchen is not with rooftop bar - I saw cooks bringing them off the elevator in room service containers and taking them to the rooftop.
Our waitress was inattentive. We weren't given water or silverware, and when we asked for napkins, we were given paper drink napkins. We saw other patrons with cloth napkins, which would have been preferable, because the balsamic drizzle was so incredibly sticky that it took two small paper napkins to get it off my fingers.
If I'm in Boston again, which I plan to be, the Revere will be on my list of places to avoid. It could be amazing, but it was a huge disappointment, and not worth the $80 bill at the end of the night.
