Been going to Nautilus since it opened! Great food, great atmosphere and great drinks - especially if you take this combo and score a seat waterfront on a summer day ;) read more

I have to say that I was pretty impressed with this place. We've came here before for regular dinner service but didn't find it super memorable - remembering the food being decent but also remembering it being pricey for what it was. We came here again for their NYE coursed menu and was impressed. The service was a tad slow but understandable with the influx of reservations for that night but each dish was strong and creative and flavor packed. I enjoy the portion size and was thoroughly stuffed by the time we got to dinner. Our waitress was so accommodating and gave us free shots for the extended wait before our first course showed up. Each dish was done so well I don't have a complaint on any so compliments to the chef. See my photos for more details of each dish! Love the food will be back again! read more

Johnathan our waiter was great. Food was amazing as always. Will definitely be back. The calamari is amazing!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the Seaport area! It's a cute ambience, upscale yet cool so great to go out for a nice dinner. They have share plates that you can choose from to make a nice varied meal. It can get loud at times so keep that in mind for a weekend dinner. You really can't go wrong with the food. My favorite OG share plate is the shishito peppers. I salivate just thinking about them! So simple yet so well seasoned. I've tried many other dishes as well and can't think of any I haven't liked. read more

Ok this food may be expensive but it is worth every single penny. The quality of the food is second to none and the location and views are great. Service was a little slow and the venue is so loud that it's hard to speak but honestly good food speaks for itself. read more

Had an incredible French 75 to start my meal and the asparagus and kale salad was literally one of the best salads I've had. It was so flavorful and satisfying but light at the same time. The day boat scallops were also delicious and cooked perfectly but the sea cod espluma was a little off for me--would have preferred a starch instead. Sat outside and the view was beautiful and the service was good. The dessert menu only had 2 options (one of which was ice cream) so that was disappointing. Will also say you do not get enough food for that price point--I'm not a big eater but 4 small scallops and some foam for $31 was steep and not enough food. Still had a good experience and some really good food, but probably wouldn't be back because there are so many other options to try which are probably at a better value for your money read more

It's a decent spot. Like everything in the seaport, expensive and small dishes. In my opinion, over-priced, but it is what it is. Get the halibut, almost everything else was not that interesting or too salty. Korean ribs are dry and tough, cucumber salad is not good (if you're Asian and expecting the usual). Tataki is too smothered in sauce to appreciate, lump crab fried rice is beyond mid. Desserts are also disappointing. You need 2-3 plates per person I think. Best done family-style where everything is in the middle. Just as an aside, I think the menu is trying to be elevated foodie but it misses the mark. Calling it allium instead of garlic doesn't really make it taste better read more

I had been there a few times since it opened, I always left there underwhelmed. Not this time. We had the mushrooms, racklette stuffed peppers, Szechuan green beans, calamari salad, hamachi crudo, tuna cups, and the scallops. Everything was bright, interesting, so flavorful and complex. The foam with the scallops left us quiet... WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!? It was SO good, we couldn't figure out what it was made of. The manager Casey filled is in, he's a great guy and an asset to Nautilus. I will be returning!! read more

I enjoyed the food and drinks. I recommend the duck and cauliflower. It's a cute spot for happy hour or dinner with friends but I dont recommend coming with kids as they were not properly accommodated. The star reduction: We had allergies in our party (young kids). They said they would substitute the sauce for the wok vegetables but replaced it with a spicy sauce. We didn't send it back but we ordered that for the kids. How were they supposed to eat spicy vegetables? It was a turn off and a bit baffling for me. As for check-in, I expected a more friendly greeting. That sets the tone for the start of an experience at the restaurant. read more

On a cold winter night, and after a wonderful evening at the Institute of Contemporary Art, we made our way to Nautilus. The short and sweet review is that this is a lively, well-reputed, and delicious restaurant that should be on anyone's list, especially when in Seaport and even more so during the summer when the area outside transforms with seating! Especially during the winter (and when I visited this locale for the first time), it's very unassuming. You really can't tell how busy this restaurant is from the outside-in. But the second you walk into this you realize how popular it is! For a Thursday night, all of the tables were completely booked, which is totally fine because I wanted to sit at the bar. The bar area itself is really fantastic. Great lighting and atmosphere, and wonderful service. The patrons comprised of a mix of young professionals and older, more established clientele as well. (I was told that the clientele was mainly of younger patrons, but it looks like the word of this place got out to everyone!) In terms of drinks at the bar, we tried the cocktail, specifically the tequila mockingbird which is comprised of tequila, roasted grapefruit, chilis, rosemary. The cocktail comes with a really fun presentation by lighting a stick on fire and putting it in the cocktail (a total surprise!). Of course Nautilus has great seafood, nevertheless, following our stomachs and recommendations of the bartender, we had a couple of selection from the "From the Land" section of the menu. First we had the japanese fried chicken which included hot + sour mayo, cilantro, wadaman togarash. The chicken was juicy and crispy, but the SAUCE was the star of the show when it came to this dish! To cap it off we had the szechuan lamb potstickers made of wood ear mushroom, chinese black vinegar, cumin, chili ponzu, which had a phenomenal and complex flavor. You could really taste the blend of spices and ingredients. The two dishes were so different, yet delicious in their own unique way! read more

In town for work and so glad I ate here. Everything was perfect. Waitress was incredible - best service. Thank you Val!!!They NEED to make a cookbook. How did they make cauliflower taste THAT GOOD???!! Also pls open a place in L. A. K, thanks. read more

Absolutely LOVED Nautilus. The service was great, food was even better, and drinks were creative and delicious. The bar is extensive so feel free to tell your bartenders what you're craving, even if it's off the menu! Our waitress was extremely attentive while also making sure to course out our dishes and ensure we weren't rushed. The oyster tacos and cauliflower were definite must tries. The oysters were very lightly friend and the sauce and the rice underneath made for the perfect combo. The cauliflower was one of the most interesting preparations I've ever had. The tahini sauce and roasted cauliflower with pickled kohlrabi made for a light dish that didn't taste overly fried or drenched in oil. The salmon nori hand rolls were also delicious, along with the beef tataki. My only regret is being too full to try every dish on the menu!! read more

Great Harborside location and lovely scene. But I think the sea may contain less salt than the food..the green beans, cucumber salad and Dan Dan noodles had so much potential, but the salt overpowered it all. I'll be surprised if I haven't swollen up into a balloon by the time I'm done writing this. However the scallops were perfectly made with a great sear, and their version of the tres leches cake was a delicious relief from the sodium load. My friend enjoyed his non alcoholic riesling, and my cocktails were at par with a very limited selection. At least they weren't salty. Jen on service was great. read more

Just don't go. Service sub par. Communication not good, food is better in Chinatown if you're looking for asian food.

Mediocre food, above-average prices. Good cocktails. Thai lettuce wraps - came with thick sausage pieces, wish it was ground Dumplings - al dente which was weird for steamed. Tuna poke - tuna did not taste or feel very fresh or high quality Fried chicken - literally just chicken nuggets. Came with spicy aioli, seemed like something you would serve on a children's menu read more

Loved the variety on this menu it was hard not to order one of everything but my favorite was the tuna poke. The presentation was lovely and the different flavors and textures from the toppings all came together perfectly. I also ordered and would recommend the green beans, Japanese fried chicken, and scallops! read more

Nautilus Pier 4 - Two Hawaiian Tuna Poke - Seafood Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Wow wow wow!!! Came here for Valentines Day. My SO made a 9:15 reservation. The hostess accidentally sat a couple under our name, but they were able to find us a table immediately. We also did arrive a bit early. I did not take pics of all the food because 1. I did not want to be that person. and 2. I was enjoying my date. For drinks, I had the Risky 'biscus twice. My SO ordered Havana Club on the rock- and by chance, we happened to have the last of the bottle, which the server told us was on the house! Such a great gift! We appreciated the gesture so much! For food, we ordered the Two Hawaiian tuna poke (verrryy delicious!). I loved it. Fresh and delicious. The chilled octopus salad delicious as well! (Pictured below) I appreciated the way the octopus was sliced- like the way cucumbers are sliced. I've made an Asian salad at home before, and this seemed close to it, but much much better! The Japanese fried chicken was probably me and my SO's top favorite choice of what we ordered. A delicious sauce was in the middle of these bite sized pieces of chicken, garnished with a few sprigs of cilantro. Texture was perfect; a little crunch but tender. My SO ordered the Steamed Pork Buns. I didn't have any, but he said they were great! The spicy Szechuan dandan noodles had me fooled initially, because I didn't think they were spicy (I'm someone who loves spice in my food and can tolerate a decent amount of spice), then after maybe 5 minutes, the spiciness started to kick in. Very good! All to say, I wish I had 7 stomachs so I could try EVERYTHING on the menu! Drinks, ambiance, service & food were excellent! This is a nice date night spot. There also is a nice bar, so it can also be a hangout NOT for dates. Definitely a mature setting- no college kids or that type of scene. You will not go wrong eating and drinking here! I hope to be back soon! read more

Service was amazing! Food was different from what we normally eat, but we were surprisingly pleased.

We ate here last night, and it exceeded our expectations! We sat at the chef's counter and found the plates we ordered to be delicious and well-portioned. We got the Vietnamese Beef Tataki Salad, Dandan Noodles, Szechuan Wok-Tossed Green Beans, Charcoal Prawns, Octopus, and a Salmon Tostado. Service was great, and the space was cute and right on the water. We'll definitely come back. read more

Definitely a cool spot situated on Pier 4 in the Seaport district. Brand new. Beautiful presentation on all the food. The concept feels unique, as sort of a seafood, Asian fusion, small plates style restaurant. There are beef and vegetable dishes as well. There is also a whole roasted duck dish that seemed to be quite popular with many patrons. Everything is made fresh and comes to the table as its ready, per usual tapas style places. Service: The service was good, but seems to suffer a bit from that new opening confusion, which is normal. Our waitress would often state she would go get something, but then there was a 50/50 shot if she would return with said item in 10 minutes or more. Also, because of masks and uniforms and so many waiteresses and runners milling around, it was hard to even spot your own waitress to flag her down. Food: The small plates were excellent. The beef tataki, tuna poke, and oyster tacos were superb. Everything was perfectly seasoned and tasted fresh. I highly recommend those 3 dishes. Flavors were rich and bold. So good. I could have eaten 3 orders of the oyster tacos myself. Not really "tacos" in size. They are more like 1 bite, but worth it. Charcoal shrimp were good. I don't know if I would do them again. Beautiful presentation on them. The small plates are... well, small, as the name says. If you're coming to get full, be prepared to pay over $100 a person, if you're adding a cocktail. I came hungry, like really hungry! I feel like the small plates could have added 25% more. An extra shrimp or taco... raising the count from 4 to 5 would go a long way for the price. The large plates are not quite dinner portions but more conducive to sharing. The crab fried rice was very good, topped with a perfectly fried egg. Yummy. The short rib lettuce wraps were super salty and the sticky rice was difficult to get into the wrap. The dish just wasn't firing on all cylinders for me. It could have used more fresh veggies and maybe something with a crunch. OVERALL: Very good spot in the Seaport. It's situated away from all the craziness on Seaport Blvd. So it feels like a quiet, tucked away experience. The prices seem a bit high for the portions. But overall the food was really good. Some dishes were an easy 5, but some were not executed as well, particularly the salty short rib. While I didn't mind it, there looks like a 2% "voluntary" gratuity added to your check for kitchen appreciation. I think that means you can request it be taken off. I didn't. Especially since the pandemic has been so hard on restaurants. Happy to pay it. read more

If you manage to reserve a spot outside I imagine the rating would be higher. Being inside with no view this place is average. The food was fine. The drinks were fine. But you are paying seaport prices so you hope for something that has a bit more pizzazz. Perfectly average fare. Tight quarters. Nice staff. Don't come unless you score an outside seat though. read more

I was so worried that this restaurant wouldn't live up to the hype... but it did! I absolutely loved our meal here tonight. We started with the crudo and poke bowl, which were the perfect light starters. Both of these dishes packed a punch! They were so light but the flavor was incredible. We wanted to save most of our appetite for the duck, and these were definitely the right dishes to begin with. We split the duck for the main course. Honestly, I think I'll dream about that duck tonight. It was perfectly cooked. I can't say enough good things about this meal!! I can't wait to return! read more

It is a beautiful spot in the Seaport district. I was planning to try this place during Memorial weekend but the reservation was full. The patio is first come first serve but the long weekend was raining, so it got postponed. I was able to make a reservation for indoor a few days later. Their reservation sold out fast even you can make a reservation 2 weeks in advance. For the small tapas, we ordered tempura east coast oyster tacos, Vietnamese beef tataki salad, wok tossed greens, and charcoal prawns. I guess I had a high expectation, all tapas are over-seasoning except the oyster tacos. For the large plate, we tried the blue crab fried rice and duck breast bun cha gio. Blue crab fried rice was okay, the crab does not have a fishy taste and it can be bland depending on how much sauce you add to your rice. I considered overpricing since it cost $41 for the rice which is not a big portion even is on the large plate. Duck breast bun cha gio tastes the best, not too salty and the duck breast is juicy. I wanted to order the whole roasted Peking duck too but it will be too much food for 2 people after seeing so many tables ordering it. However, after trying the food today, I don't think I gonna come back. Overall, this place is pricey considering the portion but you can't really complain since the location is in the Seaport district. It seems their menu made some updates on their prices and some items on the menu. Also, there is a voluntary 4% kitchen fee is added to all checks which you can opt opt-out but I don't mind especially opening a new restaurant during a pandemic at Seaport district. Since the mask restriction is lifted, no one wore mask except 2-3 workers wore it. read more

My friend and I were looking for a place to grab dinner in the Seaport after walking about the Snowport Market. I had looked up Nautilus Pier 4 earlier in the day and made a mental note that they encouraged walk-ins. Awesome. We arrived around 7:15pm and all the tables were booked so we were added to the waitlist. We were told it would be about an hour wait so we walked over to the bar and ordered a round of drinks. The bartenders were really nice, attentive, and quick. After about 30 minutes, a pair sitting at the bar turned to us and said they would be leaving and asked if we wanted their seats. Yaaaaaas. Amazing, love when this happens. We grabbed the seats, ordered a second roundand asked to see the food menu. For food, we ordered: Hamachi Crudo, Steamed Pork Buns, Day Boat Scallops, Blue Crab Fried Rice, Blistered Shishito Peppers, Szechuan Eggplant, BBQ Korean Style Short Ribs. The Hamachi Crudo was fresh, light, and delicious, but similar to a Hamachi Crudo you would get elsewhere. I felt the same way about the Shishito Peppers, Pork Buns, and Szechuan Eggplant. All were excellent, but nothing about them were unique or made them stand out from other places. I enjoyed the scallops and BBQ Korean Style Short Ribs, but wouldn't recommend the Blue Crab Fried Rice. I felt like it was just okay and not worth the $44 price tag. Everything was delicious, including the drinks, but I think you're really paying for the ambience and presentation. I would definitely come back, but likely just for the drinks. read more

Not as gourmet as you would think. Asian influenced dishes that are to be shared at the table. We prepared, smaller than you thought, more expensive than you thought. Overall a very fun experience. The wine list is very good. read more

I had no idea what to expect when I made a reservation for Nautilus, but I ended up having quite a good experience overall. The one thing that stuck out in a bad way however was that the food was very very salty and would really have gone well with rice (but they don't give any rice or bread and it's not even listed as an optional add-on). I am a fiend for salt, but even I thought that the combination of a lot of the foods that we got were unbearably salty and really took away from the enjoyableness of the experience. Even if we had just had a couple of bowls of rice, the food would have tasted much much better because we would have been able to appreciate the flavors, rather than just have our mouths overloaded with sodium. That being said I really did love the different flavors that we had here and had a lot of dishes that I would want to get again. Delicious, would get again - Korean style short ribs was the showstopper for me. I was worried that it would be sweet because it did say KBBQ style, which can be quite sweet, but instead it was a punch of flavor and the meat was so tender and juicy. It's some of the best short rib I've ever had. It was just delicious. - The crab fried rice was delicious. The price is a bit steep and I'm not sure if it's really worth that price, but it is quite good. Very soft, filling, and hits all the right spots. It's not a wok hei crispy sort of fried rice, but more of a soft one with smooth gentle flavors. The crab meat is big and tasty and the egg and crispy shallots are great. I didn't really need the sauce at that point and I kind of wish that we had the rice earlier to go with the other things but unfortunately we did receive the rice last. - The tuna with shrimp chips was also really good. It wasn't too salty, the tuna was super super smooth, and the shrimp chips had a nice crunch. Wouldn't get again/I was too salted-out to appreciate - The charcoal prawns were strongly recommended in a lot of food reviews. I can see that it could've been good, but there was way too much seasoning on it, and it was the first item we had that was unbearably salty. The shrimp was also the kind that gets easily overcooked. I wouldn't get it again. - I thought the scallops were nicely cooked and tasty with vegetables and creamy sauce but it wasn't anything particularly special so I wouldn't get that one again. - The Shanghai pork and chicken dumplings were pretty good but nothing too special and I'm not sure if the price is justified. I did like the crunchy textures of the topping and the sauciness. - We also got the raclette peppers which I didn't really like because it wasn't my style of flavors but the other people I was with really liked it. - The wok-fried greens I think we're quite good but again because of the salt I just couldn't eat any more of it. Dessert review - The tres leches cake with passion fruit was really unique and tasty and the textures were great. It was almost a bit too much flavor though -- there was a bit of mouth-puckering saltiness and sourness. It was almost too much flavor for me, though I'm not sure how much that was influenced by the other things I had earlier in the evening. - The salted chocolate soft serve was nothing special. The tres leches cake is much more special and worth getting. Takeaways - They gave us four of most things so it would be a great place to go with either two people or four people. - We did order a bit too much food, and ended up spending over $100 per person after tax and tip. We could easily have cut one or two of the smaller dishes and have been satisfied (closer to $75 per person). - Given the serving sizes, the food is quite expensive. But there are some really unique flavor and texture combinations that you can't find elsewhere, so maybe it's worth it! - I did enjoy it more than other more upscale restaurants I've tried I've had on average I think they really know their flavor as well they just may amplify the salt aspect a little bit too much. - The service was good and it was a really nice ambiance with nice lighting and bathrooms. - It's a great place to go if you're looking to treat yourself or celebrate something. I can see myself coming back but I would definitely try to get some rice, because I don't think it's possible to get through the meal without it. read more

Heard great things about the Nantucket location and was excited to try Nautilus while staying in Seaport for the weekend. Average rating came out to a 3.6, rounded up to a 4. My partner and I ordered the tempura east coast oyster tacos, Japanese hamachi crudo, harissa braised lamb, and Szechuan eggplant, along w My Mom's Maple and Ack Nauti cocktails - TASTE: 3/5 - the BBQ sauce in the oysters was interesting, though the chili vinaigrette in the crudo was fire. The eggplant surprised us as being really good, thanks to the combo of pickled chili, basil, and cilantro! The lamb was just alright - it tasted muted, and I typically like a strong lamb flavor to come through. Its accompanying tzatziki was refreshing! TEXTURE: 4/5 - oysters were crunchy, crudo was smooth, and eggplant had great texture. I thought the lamb dish could've used a crispy element, as the chickpea fritter was more of a smooth polenta? The rapini helped break up all of the creaminess though PRICE: 3/5 - definitely a splurge and would probably choose Barcelona over Nautilus for tapas nrxtcy SERVING SIZE: 4/5 - they advised four-six tapas for our party of two. So each plate was obviously pretty small. The eggplant dish and lamb dish were the only ones of really good substance. The tempura east coast oyster "tacos" name was a bit of a stretch. The nori wrap was tiny, so each taco was a one-bite skewer. Felt misled SERVICE: 4/5 - we used OpenTable to last minute book a 5pm Saturday dinner reservation in the dining room. Our waiter was welcoming and attentive, giving some insight to how this Pier 4 location started and providing recommendations for some of our selections ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 - vibes were solid. A line was already formed when we got there, and the decor was sleek among the dimmed lights. It was nice that the bathrooms were gender-neutral singles PARKING: 3/5 - we parked in a garage a couple of blocks away since we stayed at Yotel for the night. Otherwise, street parking can be tough read more

Came here for dinner last week. The place was absolutely packed, we were lucky to get a few seats at the bar. We had some appetizers, fried calamari, and the tuna tartare. I had a gin, martini, a margarita, and then an old-fashioned, yes, I know. For dinner, I got the scallops, which was a very small portion, but absolutely delicious. All the food was great, the drinks are great, but it was very pricey. However, the atmosphere and the service added value so price was not an issue. read more

The service was great and the decor was very modern. The restaurant is tapas style so plan to share everything! The tables in the main dining room were very close together, so you could really hear the conversations around you and getting up could be uncomfortable at times. The warm silken chawanmushi was beyond incredible and definitely the star of our meal. The oyster tacos were a close second. We also ordered the chicken and pork dumplings, the green beans and the short ribs. The green beans and short ribs were incredibly salty and hard to finish. I would come back for the chawanmushi and to try other things on the menu, but would want to try sitting at one of the high tops or at the bar. read more

Finally had dinner here for the first time and tried to mull over a good reason to bring friends and just "chill" here. I can't find one, the portions are small and too expensive to justify coming here. That being said, I can't deny that what I ordered was very very delicious (oyster tacos and prawns). The oyster tacos looks like a tempura sushi roll, but has a skewer thru it. The prawn was very saucy and loved the charcoal smell to it. Be careful rolling the prawn into more sauce, it can get a bit salty after awhile. Had a few drinks, which I didn't taste much alcohol at all, but did enjoy the smell of oranges! Heard the hype and wanted to check it out? Give it a go, but I can't think of any other reason to randomly waltz in. read more

A fun spot for some great food! The service was great; our waiter was super helpful with guiding us through the menu and figuring what and how much to order. The food was delicious.

Amazing anniversary dinner at this "hot spot" restaurant located in the seaport area of Boston,what was once the home of Anthony's pier 4 is this seafood eccentric gem with Asian influenced small plates. The food gets ordered all at once and comes out a few plates at a time, actually very quickly, a little too fast for us,hoping we could spread it out a bit and savor our evening a little longer. That being said there wasn't a bad bite all evening. The Spoon tuna chips and dip was clean and fresh with just the right balance of umami. Grilled hamachi collar was fire. dandan noodles with Szechuan peppercorns and ground pork were spicy for sure but the kind you just want to keep taking another bite. Blistered shishito peppers, awesome. Don't miss out on the Japanese fried chicken, crunchy nuggets of deliciousness. Mushrooms ala plancha were a bit underwhelming but tasty enough. Delicious cocktails and friendly service, including an after dinner drink of plum sake on the house was a nice touch. Price point was good for the quality of the food. Highly recommended, would suggest taking a Lyft or uber if possible, busy area with limited and expensive parking. I have to add, while reading past reviews, I must have seen two or three that yap the food was too salty, nooo! The type of cuisine that is served here has a ton of flavors including salty flavors, do your homework people! read more

Nautilus Pier 4 - Seafood Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Delicious! Compliments to the chef because everything was so well done and i don't get impressed easily! The tuna chips were amazing, love the rice cracker chips and how they paired with the minced tuna, the scallops were cooked perfectly! Gordon ramsay would be proud! I enjoyed the creamy seafood foam and veggies accompanied with it. The calamari is not your typical dish. Its fried shrimp on top of a bed of cabbage slaw and the dressing reminded me of vietnamese fish sauce but i think it was more of a thai style salad with mint leaves but none the less it was fresh and crispy! We also got the tuna poke and it was delicious! Nothing bad to say, the fish was fresh and ingredients just combined so well. The blue crab fried rice impressed me! You can see that they dont skimp out on the crab and has chili garlic and some sort of lime cilantro fish sauce on the side for more added flavor! Nice touch with the egg on top. The bone marrow was a tiny bit salty but flavorful. My favorite dish hands down is the peking duck, the buns were soft and the duck was perfectly cooked, crispy and juicy and the fat was rendered down well, they did not leave any crumbs with carving the duck because not only did they give us slices of breasts but the remaining duck scraps were topped on a bed of jasmine rice which had a slight hint of ginger, butter lettuce was great especially for those who do not want to eat it with the buns! And unlike your traditional chinese peking duck combo, they added mint leaves and pickled radish as optional topping and it just paired so wonderfully. I would say this was the best duck ive ever had and would definitely come back as ive enjoyed all the dishes here. Service was great! I would say i wish they expanded their drink menu alittle because the cocktail options are a little lacking but overall it was an amazing place to dine at! read more

We had a truly enjoyable dinner experience here at Nautilus! Our server Val was welcoming, friendly, and guided us through their tapas menu to ensure we were getting the tastiest meals with a good balance between hot and cold, veg and protein, and excellent flavor profiles. The dishes are large enough to share for two people, we ordered six plates in total and there was more than enough food to take home leftovers. While we opted out of dessert, we did see their tres leches cake served that looked spongey and delectable. Would definitely recommend making a reservation as it was packed in on a Monday night. The excellent views of the harbor and the tasteful menu make this place a standout in the Seaport area. Enjoy! read more
