Japanese, Sushi · ★ Michelin

$$$$

Located on the ground floor of a South End rowhouse, this intimate chef's counter is the vision of Chef Wei Fa Chen. Pale walls and light wood provide a blank canvas to show off the chef's seasonal selection of ceramic platters (from Kyoto and Asheville), custom-made tatami coasters and thoughtfully crafted cuisine.The chef's omakase features impressive nigiri showcasing high-quality product, much of it imported from Japan; and the range of fish could include fluke, striped beakfish and goldeneye snapper. Cooked items precede the sushi and highlight a particular cooking method, such as delicat

Bar Volpe

$$$

Say hello to your quintessential neighborhood hangout. Armed with two bars, candles flickering on every surface and a menu committed to southern Italy, Chef Karen Akunowicz’s bigger-boned follow-up to Fox & The Knife gets all the little details just right. A lengthy amaro selection and fine-tuned cocktails set the stage for familiar dishes that deliver on flavor and finesse. Salt cod fritters come cleverly dusted in za’atar. House-made pastas like spaghetti al limone with Jonah crab or squid ink casarecce with lobster and chili are full meals that will leave barely any room for a particularly

Fox & The Knife

italian · Bib

The roots of Chef Karen Akunowicz’s pasta empire trace back to this welcoming restaurant in South Boston, where she draws inspiration from her time in Italy. Everyone from parents in for a quick meal with their kids to younger couples just getting their evening started take to the lively space fit with a long bar up front and banquettes further back. Meals must begin with warm pieces of focaccia stuffed with taleggio or, for something a bit lighter, gnocco fritto with mortadella. Broccoli Caesar is a classic starter too. Pasta, as expected, is the main attraction. The likes of raviolo carbonar

Toro

Spanish

Toro has been a mainstay of Boston’s South End for well over 20 years and its longevity is easy to explain: it’s fun, well run and who doesn’t need some tapas in their life every now and then? Round up some friends for a night out, then start with a glass of manzanilla and some pintxos like caña de cabra or matrimonio while you decide what to share. Highlights of the menu include crisp croquetas with creamy bacalao and roasted bone marrow with oxtail – or you can choose one of the paellas. Good cocktails and an all-Spanish wine add to the appeal, while the music plays in tune with the rustic,

Contemporary

$$$$

On a quiet corner in South Boston in a dining room the size of a postage stamp, Chef Shi Mei offers an experience that’s about as intimate as they come. You will not find a fleet of servers, expensive plates and cutlery, or lavish decorations. This is not the place for pampering. What you will find is a chef who openly engages customers and cooks with a refined casualness that often takes you by surprise. Both the meat and vegetarian tasting menus yield a handful of courses that do not hew to one particular region or cuisine. Highlights like scallop crudo with rose, rutabaga soup with truffle,

Zhi Wei Cafe

Chinese

On a quiet street in the Leather District, this friendly Chinese restaurant specializes in Lanzhou-style hand-pulled noodles. A constant whack and thud rings out from the kitchen, as chefs make the noodles all throughout the day. The signature beef noodle soup delivers handsomely with a deep, soulful broth, tender slices of beef and daikon, and a slick layer of chili oil for bittersweet heat. Stir-fried noodles are also worth an order.

Mooncusser

seafood

$$$$

With a colorful bar downstairs and a well-measured tasting menu upstairs, this two-part operation stands tall like a wedge of cake in the heart of Back Bay. Arched windows overlooking Columbus Avenue set the scene for this pleasant dining room where Chef Carl Dooley cycles through dishes with notable frequency. Know that no one cuisine calls this global kitchen, and inspiration can swing from the Mediterranean to Asia with seafood as a regular feature. Think Spanish mackerel crudo dressed with a salsa verde redolent of huacatay, or glazed local cod composed with mango pickle, citrus and flecks

La Padrona

Italian-American

This glamorous, two-story looker is the place to be. Located within Raffles Boston, this playful Italian restaurant starts with an easygoing ground floor bar and lounge. Up the grand staircase, find a high-energy dining room, while a large, U-shaped bar anchors this gorgeous space fit with big windows, globe lights and gold accents. Thankfully, these stylish environs also come with substantial cooking. Start with cheese and fennel breadsticks before digging into beautifully seared scallops finished in saffron butter. The pastas are all made in-house and many of the entrees are portioned to sha
