Boston restaurant recommendations

ES is good for cocktails and OK for dinner too. haven't been to brunch - i suspect that it may not be so quiet on day game days, though (which this saturday isn't) as it's always rammed before games.

n.b. if this is the brunch i'm thinking of then ES sounds good, basically.

then let us make it so

You'll have to report back on how it was. :-)

let me chack with my better half first but does look good.

Upstairs on the Square is really good, as noted upthread

True but $$$$$$.

So ENBB, you said you live near the airport now? Like East Boston? What do you think about that?

hey, where the fuck has jhoshea been?

^^^ I have been wondering this too!!!

Yes, East Boston. We're in Jeffries Point which is by Maverick Station. http://eastboston.povo.com/Jeffries_Point. We're one block from this: http://eastboston.povo.com/Listing:Piers_Park_on_Marginal_Street and so far we LOVE living there.

Our place is huge and we're only paying $200 more than we were for a studio in Brighton. The commute is so quick. Met a friend in DT x-ing the other night and then got on at state and was at Maverick in 2 stops and home in 20 mins. That would have taken me almost an hour when we were in Brighton.

That sounds awesome...I wish I worked downtown and not 30 miles away so I could potentially have that kind of commute.

Eastern Standard is a great call, since the Red Sox are out of town.

It's a huge hike to get to unless you live nearby, but Sorella's in JP is probably my favorite brunch in Boston, and definitely has the most schizophrenic menu. "YOUR IN ITALY TRY IT"

anyone know anything about Belmont, especially for breakfast/lunch? i'll be staying there this weekend for a wedding.
