Located on the corner of Massachusetts Ave. and Commonwealth Ave. I always seem to forget about Deuxave. Only odd because it is on the corner of two very major streets in Boston. My parents were in town and wanted to take us out for dinner. The service here has been good on previous visits, and this time was no exception. Our server drives all the way up from Rhode Island and really seems to take pride in his job. His attention to detail is impressive.

“Night Moves” Scituate Lobster with Gnocchi: Potato Gnocchi, Mushrooms, Green Grapes, Curried Walnuts & Pearl Onions, in a Citrus Fricassee ($19). A really lovely and flavorful dish. A little pricey for an appetizer, but worth the money!

My dad gets the 9 Hour French Onion Soup: Slowly Caramelized Onion Soup, Beef Bone Marrow Crouton, Comté Cheese ($14) which was delicious, even if it is hard to eat politely, and the lobster appetizer for his meal.

My mom gets the salad which she can’t stop raving about throughout the entire meal.

Not only is the presentation beautiful, it also tastes delicious.

I order the pork three ways, which is really out of this world.

We order the Duo of Giannone Chicken & Local Tomatoes: Crispy Skinned Breast, Housemade Sausage, Sweet 100, Tomatoes, Pumpernickel Roulade, Lolla Rossa Lettuce, Heirloom Egg Green Goddess Aioli, Smoked Jus ($29).

My mom has the creme brulee, her go to dessert anywhere we go ($12)

We order the deconstructed opera cake for dessert.

I order the native strawberries, a delicious and not too sweet dessert with tres leches cake (AMAZING), variations of strawberry, lemon verbena gelee, roasted white chocolate and avocado ice cream ($14). Lovely presentation!

When the check comes, our server also brings us over caramels and lavender chocolates. While this restaurant isn’t always top of mind for me, I always love it when we dine here.
