this is my business

The Foundation Lounge is in the Hotel Commonwealth. The menu features Japanese appetizers and a Sake menu. The lounge has been recognized locally as one of the best new hot spots in the city. The lounge is open 7 days a week 5pm - 2am. It has a unique specialty drink menu, and the bartenders are always experimenting with drinks not on the menu.

Though it is on the smaller side, it has a room with comfy couches. The music is good but pretty loud, and not much space to dance. People are well-dressed and the drinks are expensive. There is a small patio outside to take a break from the music.

The Foundation Lounge is the only bar in town that gives Boston a legitimate claim to world-class sophistication. The drinks are perfect and the food is superb and inventive.

The Foundation is a Fun, up beat spot, I love the comfortable atmosphere, and the sushi is great. Its a great place to bring out of towners. It's a nice change from some of the old frumpy Boston clubs.

The atmosphere at Foundation seems different from other bars. It has a classy modern "speakeasy" feel to it. The food is quite unique; not like many other places that seem to compete with each other. I think also that being set apart (Kenmore vs. Back Bay / Midtown) shows an intrepid spirit. Of course being close to Fenway Park doesn't hurt either.

I have been to Foundation for many events, opening day, New Years, my own B-Day Party etc. I always have a great time and am never disappointed! The Food is great, the staff is attentive and the atmosphere/over all design concept is great! Boston needs more places like this!
