I've been wanting to visit Roxanne's for ages and my experience here did not disappoint!
I made a reservation here to get drinks to celebrate my friend's 21st birthday. We went on a Tuesday evening but it was still rather hectic on a weekday! If you're interested in going here, I definitely recommend making a reservation far in advance since the place is small and gets packed rather quickly.
Perhaps it was because I noted we were celebrating a friend's 21st birthday, but the drinks were STRONG. Although strong, they were great drinks that were super tasty and aesthetic. The decor and cute drinks made this place perfect for Instagram photos.
My friends had the Fortune Teller, The Side Chick, and The Staycation. I personally ended up getting Love in Tokyo and ended up pleasantly surprised.
With Love in Tokyo, I was at first concerned about the matcha being too bitter and not going well with the vodka, but it was actually sweet matcha! This was my favorite drink of the night because the matcha and the vanilla + sweet cream were amazing and very tasty.
The Side Chick and Staycation were both fairly refreshing but not too sweet.
The Fortune Teller was easily the most fun drink. It comes with a foam bubble that resembles a crystal ball! I thought it tasted pretty good as well, but not as good as the other drinks.
Overall, their cocktails are pretty reasonably priced for the Boston area (some of the cheapest I've seen) and are solid in terms of taste.
Since the drinks were so strong, we actually ended up getting some food to balance it out.
We LOVE the Fried Goat Cheese!! If you come to Roxanne's... you have to get the Fried Goat Cheese. We ended up getting some TO-GO because that's how good it was. The honey drizzle with the crispy panko-covered goat cheese balls was delicious. We savored every single bite.
The fries are also pretty good, we liked the sauces that were drizzled over the fries. The buffalo cauliflower bites were a little too soggy, but still pretty decent. Lastly, we got the shishito peppers which were also pretty good, but the aioli really elevated their taste of them.
I'm excited to visit Roxanne's again to try more of their food and drinks!
(FYI, parking here is nearly impossible to find unless you park a bit far and walk. You can also pay unreasonable prices for garage parking).
