A welcoming contemporary restaurant with a touch of rustic charm, State Street Provisions is today’s answer to the taverns that once offered respite to the fishermen and tradesmen who worked in Boston’s bustling Long Wharf. Historically inspired but forward thinking food and drink menus feature fresh ingredients from near and far, while the comfortable space meets the needs and passing fancies of residents, workers and visitors alike. State Street Provisions is located at the intersection of State Street and Atlantic Avenue on Long Wharf, one of Boston’s most storied landmarks. Breaking ground in 1710, the Wharf was a vibrant hub for the Colonial U.S. shipping industry and originally extended nearly half a mile from the shoreline at Faneuil Hall.

Food is amazing. Service on a Monday night was a little slow. Fried seafood platter with only one small cup of tartar sauce. Maybe new server? At this price point, needs to be spot on. When I asked for a second and malt vinegar, it never came. Nor did the server by the time my family and I finished our meals. Server was nice, food was great regardless. Will definitely be back again. I chalk it up to a Monday.
