- RRennyNew York City •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoFood was much better than I expected. Really enjoyed it. Fried oyster sandwich and clam chowder were among the best Ive ever had. Great fries too! Really great service made it a very nice experience. And fantastic history in that restaurant. Was really cool to walk around and look at everything including the JFK booth. One of the guys working at the iyater bar pulled out a lobster from the tank to let my 3 year old touch it. Big points for that. Will definitely go back.More infoUnion Oyster HousePrice: Expensive• Seafood• Faneuil Hall•4.4
- LlindaGreater Boston •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoVery lively pub-by atmosphere with good food, great service, live pianist playing great music. A little loud for conversation but we were also seated right next to the piano so imagine there were quieter tables further away. Salt and pepper wings were awesome, tater top poutine was SO good, and the burger was describes as the best burger EVER.More infoBostonia Public HousePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Financial District•4.5
