- JJenniferVIPGreater Boston •1 review4.0Dined todayWe waited a long time for this reservation and were not disappointed -- the food was delicious and for the most part we loved it. Still, the fish wrapped in grape leaves was a whole fish with a lot of tiny bones -- while delicious, we found it hard to navigate in the dark and a warning would have helped us order something else. The rice pudding also had lovely flavors and details, but the rice itself was cold and waxy. In all, while we had a really lovely night, part of the beauty of Mediterranean food is its affordability. We loved the restaurant, but the food felt overpriced.More infoKrasiPrice: Expensive• Greek• Back Bay•4.9

Discover Boston
Beantown, dubbed for the baked beans that put the city on the map, is about far more than beans these days. Local restaurants channel the region’s farm-to-table traditions and celebrate the iconic seafood of New England’s coast—no trip to the region is complete without a proper lobster (pronounced “lob-stah,” steamed and served with butter and corn on-the-cob), freshly shucked oysters, fried clams—you name it. Hometown to a handful of internationally influential female restaurateurs and the inimitable legacy of Julia Child, who called Cambridge home, Boston will always be a city where liberal sensibilities meet a global approach, in politics and on the plate.
