Where is the Best People Watching in Boston, Massachusetts?
My 3 fabulous supervisors decided to take me here for my 21st birthday lunch. These ladies work in the fashion & editorial industry, so I knew I wouldn’t be let down. Stephanie’s was so cute when I walked in, with all of it’s fancy decor and dim lighting. It was wintertime so I especially loved the fireplace and how there seemed to be endless amounts of booths (I always tend to request booths, they’re just comfier/more spacious). Our server was friendly and attentive, and she helped my supervisors decide what should be my first legal drink. An elegant and princess pink prosecco for me, haha. It was delicious. Strong bloody marys and various other drinks for the rest of the party (it was onlyabout noon, which adds bonus points to Stephanie’s for having a fully stocked bar promptly available that early). For my entree I ordered the grilled jumbo shrimp salad and it was delicious. It’s a very simple dish but you wouldn’t believe how easy it is to mess up/how many times I’ve been given ove
Classic Italian cuisine is made hip at this centrally located Back Bay trattoria. The large, bustling dining room is especially good for groups, while the mosaic-tiled and dimly-lit enoteca or the stylish bar offer intimacy. (The outdoor patio is a lush oasis come summer.) The kitchen’s emphasis is on fresh ingredients, resulting in a daily menu of traditional dishes. Over a dozen chic starters (like crunchy eggplant with spicy tomato sauce, oregano and parmigiano) kick off the dining options. Housemade pastas are constructed from the freshest ingredients; entrees are rich without being heavy. Desserts, including an immaculate vanilla panna cotta, are irresistible.Photo courtesy of Via Matta
