Best Restaurants for Creative Cuisine in East Boston

Legal Seafoods Harborside has the entire menu open for Xmas dinner. Service and food were excellent!

We had a nice table in the back of the restaurant. Service and attention was spot on and the food was delicious. It was my kids first time there and they loved it. Thank you!

The service was thoughtful and attentive without being intrusive, and the wine recommendation was spot on. We ordered oysters—I like them briny and bare—but the cucumber foam on these sweet things was revelatory, very good. We shared the tart, which was fine, but the layers could have been more distinct or more flavorful or something. Squid was great with the two textures. And we shared the fish head, which was fun and delicious. Great sauce with it.

We had an outstanding meal at Comfort Kitchen this evening. It’s off the beaten path, yet very successful for good reason. The food was uniformly delicious and unusual. The chefs clearly have a deft hand with spices. The food was extremely flavorful and well seasoned without being too spicy. The staff worked as a team, and the team members were extremely well trained, knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly without being at all intrusive. We look forward to a return visit!

Great food! We got there early (5:30) and it was empty but it filled up so fast! Curry’s were fantastic. I will definitely go bsvk
