The Meritage Restaurant boasts one of the best views in all of Boston on the harbor. The decor is upscale and sophisticated. The service is tremendous. Each dish was presented beautifully and cooked to perfection. One of the best meals in Boston, but pricey. Try the martini with blue cheese-stuffed olive, it's fantastic. Meritage is the culmination of Chef Daniel Bruce’s 13 years a chef for the Boston Wine Festival where he pairs more than 200 dishes each year with outstanding wines from around the world. Tip: One benefit of dressing up for Meritage is appearing more huffy and stuffy than you really are, enabling you to crash high-class company parties at the top-notch downstairs bar.

Housed in the old location of Pizza Oggi, Lobby Bar & Kitchen is a sleek and modern new addition to the increasing number of new hot spots in the Financial District. The designers of City Bar at the Lenox hotel created a sleek spot designed for lunch and after work drinks for the office drones occupying the neighborhood during the day, and open for dinner and cocktails as well.

Umbria Ristorante has brought the ambience of an Italian villa to the financial district, and owner Frank de Pasquale of Bricco also is importing many ingredients from an organic farm in Umbria, Italy. The service is a bit inconsistent -- sometimes it is great, sometimes very slow. Usually when it is slow, the dessert is free. The restaurant can get very crowded at lunch, and the tables are close together. The eggplant is good but very filling for an appetizer. The salad is frequently underdressed, so it can feel like a large plate of greens. The soups are typically quite good.

Classic hotel resturant filled with out of town business men power broking over lunch. The new chef brought to the hotel is interjecting this space with new and exciting menu features.

Vintage Lounge’s ultra-sleek ambience attracts a mix of young professionals, Financial District heavy hitters and collegiate hipsters looking to swill an after-work cocktail and munch on the restaurant’s stunning selection of Spanish appetizers known as tapas. The contemporary couches found near the bar area inspires conversation and the décor almost--but not quite--overshadows the glittery crowd. Definite late-night hotspot that seems more like an exclusive NYC tapas bar than a typical, Beantown haunt.

Located at the Intercontinental Boston and featuring foods from the Provence region of France, created by Celebrity Chef Jacques Chibois, world renowned two-star Michelin Chef. Raw bar, dining room and outdoor seating available.
