Boqueria

This tapas spot is located in that liminal space between the Seaport and Fort Point. And even though it’s a mini-chain, it’s a really useful place for a group brunch or dinner when you want to drink some good wine by the glass. The $52 chef’s menu is a solid deal where you’ll get a little bit of everything—we’re talking savory bacon-wrapped dates, silky tortilla española with confit potatoes, and a big plate of paella mariscos packed with monkfish, squid, shrimp, mussels, and what feels like everything other species you’d find in the ocean. Hit this spot for a work birthday lunch, a post-work Happy Hour, or just bring some friends who aren’t weird about small plates.
