1. The Emory
Beacon Hill
Because Beacon Hill’s somewhat staid dining scene has been jolted awake by the opening of The Emory. You’ll find creative high-low combos like buffalo sweetbreads, foie gras tots, and a can’t-miss burger topped with garlic cheddar fondue. The drink list is similarly inventive yet approachable; it features the Clarified Jungle Bird—a “milk punch” with Bounty Gold rum, pineapple, Campari, and lime—and the Guilty Pleasure—with rum, pineapple, coffee, and cocoa.
