Guidebook for Boston
Food Scene
Eastern Standard
775 Commonwealth AvenueA great place for seafood and large selection of local oysters. We prefer to sit at the bar or at high tops in the front of the restaurant (you can even sit at the shucking station if you please) Everything on the menu is tremendous, but some favorites of ours include the shell-less muscles (in the white wine), oyster sliders, and the Lobster Ro pasta dish.

Drinks & Nightlife
Known for their craft cocktails and upscale living room vibe, this is a great place to grab a fancy cocktail or meet up with friends before a nice dinner. Don't be afraid to tell the bartenders your favorite flavors or choice of liquor, off-menu creations are always accommodated and usually exactly what you didn't know you were looking for.
