Peter Ballarin is the Executive Chef/Owner of the legendary "The Hungry I". Voted Best Restaurant (in fireside dining, outdoor dining, and romatic dining) over and over again. The menu includes fancy feasts like frog legs or quail- with an exceptional wine list to match. The Hungry I is a Beacon Hill staple, elegant, and understated.
Reservations recommended.
A classic old-school American restaurant. Perched at the top of Beacon Hill next to the State House, Scollay Square offers cocktails, a patio, and a mid-priced American menu. Open for lunch and dinner, you will see alot of politicos and old school BEacon Hill regulars here.
Unassuming and somewhat affordable sushi joint next to the State House. Great rolls and sushi. Everything else is so-so and not quite worth the price, but the sushi is what keeps people coming back again and again...and again.
The Hill Tavern is Beacon Hill's neighborhood bar. Standing proud on bustling Cambridge Street, the Hill Tavern is the perfect spot for a great burger, big brunch, or tasty beer. The house burger contains seven ounces of top-flight ground sirloin, which arrives courtesy of Savenor's (Beacon Hill's top butcher), wood-grilled to juicy perfection and served with hand-cut fries.The clientele is mainly local 20's and 30 somethings that either enjoy the new seated patio, or stand in the crowded bar on a weekend night. Either it be a low key dinner with friends or a place to watch the Red Sox game, the Hill Tavern is the place to be. This is the best bar around!
Tip: Stop by weekdays, 4pm-6pm, and enjoy half-priced appetizers (chips and salsa, wings, chicken tenders). Also, if you're on a date, ask to be seated in the quiet, secluded side dining room which is partially obscured from the bar.
