Best Historic Restaurants in Boston/New England

Food was amazing! The Cavatelli and Strip steak were out favorite. Expresso Martini was the best I’ve ever had. Absolutely would come back again.

Love the historic location. Great history and food right on Freedom Trail. Fairly priced for the city. Great Clam Chowda! Will return next time we’re in town.

A wonderful meal in a classy and comfortable environment. We will definitely be returning!

Estella was wonderful. My wife and I are foodies and in Boston for a conference. We were looking for something unique and comfortable. Estella offered a twist on traditional flavors that was wonderful. We started with drinks. The seasonal blueberry harvest was a delicious gin cocktail that was a perfect balance of sweet sweet and herbaceous deliciousness of gin. My better half had a Nearest to Me which was a delicious whisky shaken with lemon and ginger ale. We ordered the Parm garlic yucca fries with their delicious aioli…and I could’ve eaten another plate. For our meals I had the blackened salmon tacos. The flavors were delicious. The salmon was cooked well and the banana peppers and aioli balanced each other while the crispy onions added a welcome crunch to the lettuce wrapped tacos. My wife had the Shorty and Mash. My god was that a delish bite. The short rib was fall off the bone tender on top of delicious buttery mash. The sauce was a mustard and vinegar base and was unexpectedly delicious cutting through the richness of the beef. The toffee cake was a shared dessert to end the night. Service was attentive and friendly from both our server and management. It was loud but not off-putting and its always great when you leave a restaurant happy with what you had but eager to experience other flavors on the menu.

Emily was a fantastic server, she was on point and amazing. We started our meal with Ceasar salads… superb, properly dressed with yummy crispy croutons. The mushroom pasta was splendid and full of flavor, the pasta was cooked perfectly. A wonderful experience with a great view of the city!
