Restaurants near William Ellery Channing Statue

Great food with hefty portions. The waitress was very helpful in guiding us through the choices. Large space upstairs to accommodate lots of diners.

I took my husband to Ostra for his birthday, and it was fantastic! The food was delicious, the staff very attentive, and the atmosphere relaxed. We parked in the garage across the street which was very convenient. The crispy native oysters were the best we’ve ever had. I really enjoyed the grilled sea bream, and my husband loved the paella “Valenciana style”. Our knowledge waiter recommended wine that paired perfectly with our meals.

Absolutely incredible. I went for my 1 year anniversary with my girlfriend and it was well worth the steep price. We had the fresh Burrata as our appetizer, she had the Fettuccine Bolognese, I had the Saered Scallops, and we got 2 desserts… the Coffee Gelato and the Crema di Boston. Food was awesome, server was attentive and nice, but the best part was the ambiance and the view. My god. Super awesome experience!

Grill 23 has been here for decades, and they deserve to be. The wait staff is the best, food delicious and it is very comfortable. A neighborhood gem. One can tell that everybody is having a good time.

Lunch today was a positive experience from being greeted at the welcoming station through the meal. Alberto Petricca is a great host and Allejandro as always is friendly and very reliable and attentive. The food was fine and the ambiance on the second floor is above the average -very lovely, quiet but not without vitality. It was a business lunch and by placing us in a corner table, they were sensitive for the need for some privacy. The price was appropriate. I'll go back for either business or pleasure.
