I would go back in a heartbeat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1442233 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 01:27:49 +0000 lisa1783 1442233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jojogirl: I just went to Row34 today and it was AMAZING! Definitely get the crudo if you like the raw bar - I had the tuna and I'm already fantasizing about going back for it.</p> <p>Some of my faves: Ten Tables in JP, Grassfed (casual but great burgers and awesome beet fries), Shake Shack in Chestnut Hill, Oishii in Chestnut Hill for legit awesome sushi, Dok Bua in Brookline for Thai. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1442096 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 22:40:21 +0000 skibobrown 1442096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for Hungry Mother. I have dreams about that place! I also really love Oleana. I've heard great things about Craigie on Main, but I moved away soon after it opened, so I still haven't tried it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1442034 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 22:00:39 +0000 mossyslane 1442034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>PICCO in the South End is completely delicious--fun but not fancy. Orinoco (South End, Brookline Village, and Harvard Square) is the absolute best (Venezuelan food)--I can't believe no one has mentioned it yet! Oleana has a casual bakery (tiny but soo yummy for lunch called Sofra that I would drive very far for). Full Moon cafe in Cambridge is a really fun place for LO's--nice, tasty adult food and a little area to play in for kids, and all in all very child friendly... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441949 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 21:15:21 +0000 catlady 1441949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooh there are so many good ones! Everyone has had great suggestions but here are some of my favorites. For fancy schmancy, L'Espalier or Menton. Still pricey but slightly less formal: No. 9 Park. Sportello is great (near the Children's Museum!). Toro is amazing (as everyone said, go super early) and so is Oleana (make reservation weeks in advance!). Posto or Figs for great pizza. Myers and Chang is great. Lots of great ones in Harvard Square: Ten Tables (ok not quite in the Square), Rialto, Harvest, Henrietta's Table. Puritan and Co in Inman Square. Ok I'm done! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441857 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 20:20:23 +0000 JoJoGirl 1441857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: YES! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441553 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 17:28:25 +0000 knittylady 1441553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: that's where we had our first date! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441513 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 16:58:46 +0000 maybebaby 1441513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T-Mom: we had our first anni dinner there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441501 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 16:48:50 +0000 mrs. wagon 1441501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@maybebaby: yes, it's a date!!

I also love toscano on charles st. and lala rokh in beacon hill. dali is super cute, and we really liked hamersleys and butcher shop in the south end. for sushi my favorites were oishii jn chestnut hill (south end location is not as good), and fish market in allston though neither are about ambience. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441255 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 15:15:19 +0000 maybebaby 1441255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheert16: Rock n Romp concerts in Cambridge!

Even in the winter there are street performers, there's Harvard Yard, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441078 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 14:24:27 +0000 Sparkler 1441078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for Craigie on Main(my fav)! Other date night favs are Oleana (and I hear she has a new place in Sommerville that is yummy), Ten Tables in JP, Neptune Oyster (no ressies), B&amp;G oysters, the Buttery, Hammerslys, Franklin Cafe, Stella( plan in advance), Toro (go early!), Myers and Chang, Coppa and Giacamos. </p> <p>With kids (aside from the waterfront joes which is so easy), Pico in the South End, Legal Harborside, Canary Square in JP, Barking Crab and really anywhere on the early side! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441045 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 14:15:46 +0000 snowjewelz 1441045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@petunia354: I was just thinking if that Barcelona in CT is the same one they're talking about! I used to live/work in White Plains and hung out around that side of CT all the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441035 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 14:12:56 +0000 bhbee 1441035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skipra: those Harpoon pretzels are insanely good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441032 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 14:12:34 +0000 bhbee 1441032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my absolute favorite place is Myers and Chang (South End). we used to take LO there (on the early side of the dinner hour) but now that she's 2 we pretty much only take her to low key places . . . Bertucci's, Wagamama, etc.<br /> I really like the bar at Via Matta (near the Park Plaza). they have (at least last time we went, which was a while ago) amazing basil lime gimlets and this dessert called Mascarporeos that are to die for.<br /> also Painted Burro for Mexican in Davis Sq (I heard they are opening one soon in Downtown Crossing too) is a fun vibe. and Davis Sq has a lot of fun bars.</p> <p>we actually were disappointed when we went to Hungry Mother. maybe we went on a bad night? or maybe just not our favorite kind of food? </p> <p>we also like L'Andana in Burlington - fun space and good food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1441008 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 14:06:54 +0000 skipra 1441008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the view from Legal Harborside. And you can always walk right down the street from there for some fresh brews at the Harpoon Beer Hall. We are pretty low key so our "dates" tend to be more along the line of the beer hall - pretzels &amp; beer, yum! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1440987 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 14:00:41 +0000 bunnylovesbear 1440987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: Good to know, thank you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1440972 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 13:54:01 +0000 JoJoGirl 1440972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, Craigie on Main is my #1 favorite in Boston.</p> <p>We're eating at Row 34 next weekend for FIL's birthday, looking forward to it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-boston-resturants#post-1440938 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 13:38:20 +0000 cheert16 1440938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@brady80: We are in the burbs, so its exciting for us to go into the city (lame....
