The Kartal

boo the bouncer he was just awful

Here’s an updated version incorporating that: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kartal Sexy Sweet Cocktail Lounge is a Boston must! The French vibes are gorgeous, the drinks are delicious, and the service is amazing. The live DJ was awesome — perfect for a girls’ night out. Beautiful South End spot, definitely coming back! ❤️

Tyler and The Team Are Very, ~ Friendly & Respectful

Kurt is the man, he’s the best bartender in Boston.

I had a great experience here on Wednesday night .. The drinks were excellent—well made and flavorful. The bartender was very friendly and welcoming, which really added to the overall vibe. The door bouncer was also professional and informative, even giving great recommendations for food spots in the area, which I appreciated. The atmosphere was fun, relaxed, and inviting. I will definitely be back and would recommend this place to anyone looking for a good time.

Cartel never disappoints, great DJs and a very good young crowd

Would not recommend!!!! I went with 3 other people and he said our ids were fake 😂 I paid him $150 and he gladly gave it back. Went to the bar next door and didn’t give us a single issue. What a stupid issue for no reason! Tried to take advantage of us because we had nice clothes. What a shame would have loved to came in.

The atmosphere is really fun. It's a great place to get drinks with some friends. Once it gets busy, the staff have a hard time keeping track of all the tabs on file and may overcharge you or put someone else's drinks on your tab. When confronted, the staff did not correct this issue. This place is nice just overpriced and staff who get overwhelmed by how busy it gets.
