Renowned for its charming alleyways lined with grand Victorian brownstones, Boston’s Back Bay is considered by many to be one of America’s most picturesque areas.
As you admire the magnificent buildings, you are somehow reminded of Paris. It may be difficult to imagine that just two centuries ago, this region was nothing more than a bay that becomes a marshy flat at low tide.
This blog looks at some of the finest places to eat in Back Bay, Boston, MA.
Krasi
Krasi is located in the Back Bay and has a menu of off-the-beaten-path with natural wines from the islands. Krasi tells the lesser-known stories of Greece, one way the concept strives to evoke the cultural idea of philoxenia. You will find wines that have never been poured in Boston and a unique bottle of assyrtiko from the producer Gaia, which has been submerged in the Aegean Sea for five years.

Atlantic Fish Company
This restaurant serves only same-day caught fish from the harbor as part of a unique daily menu that keeps patrons guessing. It’s no wonder they have been serving Boston since 1978. Daily catches may be grilled, sautéed, fried, or blackened; if you’re feeling, particularly bougie, the lobster ravioli or swordfish piccata will cure that urge perfectly. This is the one spot to visit when you want to impress. The Atlantic fish company is impressive as it’s won several accolades that speak to its excellent service.
Capital Grille
Have a taste for steak and want to clinch a business deal? The Capital Grille in Boston’s Back Bay has an excellent reputation as a restaurant for business. The Capital Grille offers an ambiance of both the eccentric and classy. You have a fantastic wine selection, fresh seafood, desserts, and creative sides. The Capital Grille is most renowned for its perfectly cooked steaks, which are dry-aged in-house for up to 24 days and then hand-cut by the restaurant’s in-house butcher. Most executives come here for business meetings, anniversaries, and other company events.
Buttermilk & Bourbon
If you are a fan of Hell’s Kitchen, you’ve probably heard of Chef Jason Santos. Buttermilk & Bourbon is the fiery blue-haired chef’s attempt to bring southern hospitality to the Back Bay.
