As someone who loves mediterranean food, this is one of my absolute favorites. Tucked away in the south end on a cute street and very small inside. Great patio for outdoor dining. You can only make a reservation starting at 10:00 am before hand so be...

Great spot right on Charles St in Beacon Hill. I love coming to sit at the bar for a drink, but the food is great too. Not many people know that there's a little rooftop where you can bring your drinks to sit and overlook Beacon Hill.

This location is small but right on the water. Great size bar with a railing outside for beautiful views of Boston Harbor. The tuna poke nachos and their pizza are a MUST try.
