Baramor is not your average sports bar, although it’s a great place to watch whatever game is on while you snack on burgers and truffle fries.

SHAN-A-PUNJAB

Brookline

Book Tonight Climbing New on Resy Top Rated

SHAN-A-PUNJAB

It’s hard to beat the all-you-can-eat lunch buffet at Shan-a-Punjab, but their table dinner service (luckily) serves the same superbly rich flavors plus warm service — you can’t get a bad deal here.

Bey

New
Opening

South End

Book Tonight Climbing New on Resy Top Rated

Bey

It’s named for Beirut, not Beyoncé, but Bey does share some qualities with its pop-star co-name — including being favorites of ours. Know that the crispy cauliflower, stuffed grape leaves, and harissa-rubbed lamb chops are not to be missed.

Bambola

New
Opening

South Boston Waterfront

Book Tonight New on Resy

Bambola

When the words “sexy” and “Italian” are used to describe a restaurant, we’re pretty sure we’re going to like it. Throw in Bambola’s handmade pasta, strong cocktails, and prime Seaport location, and we’re completely sold.

Gemma Kitchen and Bar

Fried gin-brined stuffed olives? Avocado hummus? Cheeseburger eggrolls? That’s Gemma. And that’s why you’ll find us here for the foreseeable future.

Mother’s East Tavern

New
Opening

Columbus Park / Andrew Square

Book Tonight New on Resy

Mother’s East Tavern

Expect European pub fare like Scotch eggs, shepherd’s pie, and spice bag-flavored mixed nuts. The dishes are best served with a cocktail, and we’re particularly partial to the La Coronita, a spicy passion fruit margarita.
