- KKristinaVIPPortland / Oregon •12 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoGreat view and great food! Sea bass was cooked perfectly with the lemon butter and capers sauce. I got the butternut squash and mushroom farro risotto, although I’d probably skip the latter and go for the whipped potatoes. It wasn’t really a risotto, was a bit bland and a very small portion. My husband got whipped potatoes with his steak and that was delicious. Overall I liked the ambiance by the harbor and would come back to this location.More infoLegal Sea Foods - HarborsidePrice: Moderate• Seafood• Seaport•4.5

- JJustineNew York City •7 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoImpressed by this establishment. We wanted fine dining in Boston and we got it. I had the halibut and it was amazing. My husband had a steak, also amazing. My daughter and son were able to slit the heritage chicken and it was plenty. Sides are shareable. My husband’s brown sugar old fashioned was Pinterest worthy. I had an espresso martini x 2 with amazing taste and a frosted glass which kept it cold for the little time that it lasted. Ambiance is elegant. They were well decorated for Christmas. Coat check was a nice surprise. The service was impeccable. We will return.More infoGrill 23 & BarPrice: Very Expensive• Steak• Back Bay•4.8
