Seafood Restaurants in Boston

Boston has a rich seafood tradition that dates back to the colonial days. There are many great seafood restaurants in Boston serving delicious classic seafood dishes. Here are some common types of seafood you might find:

 

Lobster
Boston is famous for its lobster, and you'll find it served in various forms, including steamed whole lobster, lobster rolls, lobster bisque, and lobster macaroni and cheese.

Clams
Clams are a New England favorite, often served as clam chowder (both New England and Manhattan styles), fried clams, clam cakes, and steamers (soft-shell clams).

Oysters
Oyster bars are popular in Boston, offering fresh oysters from local waters as well as from other regions. Oysters may be served raw on the shell or prepared in various cooked dishes.

Scallops
Scallops are another popular seafood item, often served seared, grilled, or in pasta dishes. Bacon-wrapped scallops are a classic appetizer.

Fish
Boston restaurants serve a variety of fresh fish, including cod, haddock, salmon, swordfish, and tuna. Fish dishes may be grilled, baked, or pan-seared and often come with a variety of sauces and accompaniments.

Crab
While not as abundant as lobster, crab dishes can still be found in Boston restaurants, including crab cakes, crab legs, and crab salad.

Squid and Octopus
Calamari (fried squid) is a popular appetizer in many Boston restaurants. Octopus may be served grilled or braised and often features in Mediterranean-inspired dishes.

Seafood Pasta
Pasta dishes featuring seafood, such as shrimp scampi, seafood linguine, and lobster ravioli, are also common in Boston restaurants.

Fish tacos and sandwiches
Casual eateries in Boston often serve fish tacos and sandwiches, featuring grilled or fried fish topped with fresh salsa, slaw, and other flavorful ingredients.
