Boston Restaurants
 

I'll be in Boston next weekend and I'm looking for some restaurant recommendations. I've usually just done hit or miss and walked into places, but a couple times recently I've been disappointed...waste of money!

I'll be staying in the Back Bay area, but also wandering around the north end and Esplanade Park. Nothing too fancy, gourmet or expensive (approx $15- $20 entree - or less!). Just a good meal! Italian is a favorite. Anyone have a favorite, less touristy places they recommend?

Boston (and eating there) is very well covered on this forum. I'd strongly advise doing a search here on the subject, as well as heading over to chowhound.com for good advice there.

I did a quick search through all the forums mentioning Boston, but found bits and pieces of info on restaurants. I'll do a search on restaurants specifically and check out chowhound. Thanks!
