From dbar's website:

"dbar is Dorchester's premiere destination for fine dining, delicious cocktails and exciting nightlife.

Open 7 days a week, dbar is a full service restaurant that seamlessly transforms into a nightclub and lounge as the night goes on.

Formerly an old school Irish pub filled with mahogany charm, dbar has been renovated into a hip chic hot spot. With warm glowing candles & long leather banquettes, dbar offers a casual and comfortable atmosphere that attracts clientele from Dorchester and surrounding areas.

The unique and classy menu inspired by Executive Chef Christopher Coombs changes with the seasons and features the finest and freshest available ingredients throughout the New England area. Most of the menu takes a French twist, but also contains an assortment of comfort foods (such as our famous Veal & Pancetta Bolognaise) and old favorites (like our simple yet delicious Giannone Chicken Under a Brick.)

Looking for the perfect cocktail? From espresso martinis to a fine glass of Bordeaux, dbar caters to all tastes. The eclectic martini list will excite and gratify while our selection of over 200 bottles of wine will far exceed your expectations."
