Re: Where is the BEST place 2 dine while visiting Boston?

there is a small Italian place off of Boylston near Fenway park called Trattoria Toscana. Having spent a month in Tuscany last summer, this was about as close to a true Tuscan restaurant as you can find in the States

Tides in nahant at the end of the beach.best stuffed hadock you will ever eat.best chicken ziti and broccoli in wine sauce.best stuffed mushrooms.

If you are around Copley Square, Sorellinas at one Huntington is my favorite.  If you like Sushi, O Sushi in the walkway between the Weston and Copley Place is fantastic and also has incredible martinis.

Any of the big name steakhouses on Boylston are fine, especially Mortons.

For the best bargain seafood try the No-name seafood restaurant out in the Seaport District.  It's not fancy but very reasonable and good with great service too.

The nicest seafood restaurant is the Chart House out on Long Wharf.  It takes rustic to a new level.

Bon appetite.

These posts crack me up.  There are so many resources to find that perfect place to enjoy the precise atmosphere and highest quality of food and service by using these websites.

If you have access to a computer, real reviews and epicurean delights are at your fingertips.

I note the reference to Nahant, and I fully agree but this is purely subjective information.  Nahant is not in Boston, and unless you have a car it's an expensive cab ride.

You'd be better off checking out the website reviews where you can see if a particular restaurant you are interested in receives consistent reviews.  You can search these reviews in many ways, from cost, location and type of food.  You can even search by landmarks, such as your hotel and people will have written about restaurants close to wear you are staying.  This is especially helpful if you don’t have a car.

After all, we should all support these web sites just as we support TER.

Personally I don't think you will find what you're looking for by posting for suggestions on TER.  You'd be better off asking the hotel staff or using restaurant review sites. Most
hotels will hand you a sheet of local restaurants that you can take back to your room and
check out on review sites.  This has worked well for me whether having to entertain for business or if I’ve been on vacation.

Most of us "ladies" have smartphones these days.  As an FYI, all these sites can be downloaded as Apps or accessed by search.  My favorite is Urbanspoon because it is fun to use and accurate.

Good luck and enjoy Boston.

So many places....so little time.....lol!

just some more suggestions.....there are many, many great choices.... Open Table is also another place to do research.

Steak -- Grill 23 (non-chain), Capital Grille (chain)

Seafood -- Atlantic Fish (bread bowl of chowder...the best!), Union Oyster House (oldest restaurant in America),  Legal's Long Wharf(chain), No Name is great if looking for no frills

Best View -- Top of the Hub (air), Anthony's Pier 4 (sea)

Italian -- Just go to the North End (many great choices)

Good Luck with whatever you choose....

I have a great idea if you want to taste American.

I even deliver.

My two favorite places two eat now in Boston/Cambridge are Craigie on Main(very original ecletic food that foddies recommend) which is located between Kedal and Central Squares and Rialto in Harvard Square.Jody Adams is chef owner that does great things with regional food and she supports several causes with proceeds from her restaurant.
