Mayor Menino and Billy Bulger went here many times. It is a staple in the Seaport/DryDock avenue area. I had a Crab meat sandwich which was excellent. it is very close to the Ray Flynn Cruise terminal so a good stop before a cruise.
We were staying in south Boston and after a long day in town wanted something close to our hotel... this was in walking distance- there's not much else. The place is off the beaten path, and I couldn't get a read on what we were in for by the few folks seated around the wide open space. Tile floors , glass store front, and high ceilings gave it a weird vibe, but it's location in a sorta industrial park made me think it was for locals only-which actually encouraged me. Very brief menu and a few specials made ordering easy and the fish choices sounded great, but I went for the crab casserole..... pretty good! Sautéed veggies as a side were good, too.
My overall impression is "simple".... and that's not bad.... simple ingredients done well, simple decor with no frills, simple service from honest staff.
I just can't shake the feeling that we were an oddity at this place, serious local vibe going on made me not linger....50 bucks, all in..... oh, and what about the "bean dip" ?!? Weird-put the stamp on the whole experience!
Best Kept Secret in Boston. If you want to pay a fortune for fresh sea food go to Seaport Legal. Great view, long lines, much dinero!!! But the food is good. Hopefully you are an investment banker, because the bill may require a small business loan.
If you want tremendous quality seafood, with no frills, at rediculouslly reasonable prices go to the Dry Dock Cafe in Black Falcon Terminal.( not easy to find, but nothing wothwhile is) fresh Seafood off the boat!!
Fresh Sword Fish, Scrod, Scallops.....it doesn't get any better than this. If you go to a restaurant for the excellence of the food, this is the place to go.
I'd prefer you go to some of the more overpriced, mediocre, tourist traps so I can eat in peace at the Dry Dock.
