- JJoanneNebraska •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoHands down the best seafood we've ever eaten. We had the crab cake appetizer and then split the stuffed lobster tails. Wow. The cheesecake was also good but I wish we would have asked for no seasonal (strawberry) topping as it was wonderful plain. Our server was excellent. Wish we could have gone there twice when we were in town.More infoLegal Sea Foods - HarborsidePrice: Moderate• Seafood• Seaport•4.6

- MMelissavipGreater Boston •14 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoTerra is an absolute masterpiece of a restaurant! The Italian food here is nothing short of spectacular—every dish is crafted to perfection, and the flavors are unforgettable. The wine selection is equally impressive, with thoughtful pairings that elevate the dining experience to a whole new level. A special shoutout to our server, Vinicius, who made the evening truly extraordinary. His knowledge of the menu, attention to detail, and warm, professional demeanor added so much to our experience. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and we left feeling absolutely spoiled. If you’re looking for exceptional Italian cuisine, an incredible wine list, and top-tier service, Terra is the place to be. Highly recommend!More infoTerra at Eataly BostonPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Italian• Back Bay•4.3

- GGinnyvipGreater Boston •83 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 18, 2024We had a fantastic time celebrating family. The drinks were terrific (lemon drop martini was my favorite). We ordered the calamari as an appetizer and everyone was raving about that choice. The entrees were perfect and delicious. The Chilean sea bass was a hit as was the lamb chops and filets. It was an incredible evening topped off our server - Yvonne- who made us feel at home. What a great night!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️More infoOcean Prime - Boston SeaportPrice: Expensive• Steak• Seaport•4.8
