Clio Boston
James Beard Foundation award-winning chef serves serious French food with all the fixins and flair. If you’re looking for a drink you’ll dream about, try the Enter the Dragon martini (oh. my. god.). The fancy spot is right in The Eliot Hotel and is attached to sister resto Uni, a sashimi bar.

Mike's City Diner Boston
Belly up to the bar at the old-school diner and load up on classic eggs (any way you like ’em) and hash, Belgian waffles with all the fixins, or a Southender omelet. There are soups and sandwiches, too, if it’s lunch you’re after.

Stork Club Boston
The swanky, bluesy spot (dark tile bar, red velvet chairs, caramel-colored walls) delivers a new take on old favorites (buttermilk fried chicken, mac ’n’ cheese with ham). Go late night for the bar menu and to catch the last set by a rotating cast of musicians.

Rocca Boston
The place will Rocca your world, from the stunning U-shaped bar to the second floor’s lovely, warm-hued dining room. Go for the whole-roasted fish or buridda, a fish stew served with toasted ciabatta. Dive into plates of achingly fresh pasta like the corzetti layered with red wine-braised rabbit or capellini piled high with tiny clams.
