Fodor's Expert Review Bastille Kitchen

Clubby, homey, grand: all describe the look and feel of this Fort Point–located, contemporary French restaurant that will provide one of the best meals you've ever eaten in Boston. At first glance, the ambience can feel a little sceney, but that all falls away when you taste the chef's take on brasserie staples like moules frites, garlic escargot, duck à l'orange, and salmon Provençal. Loungey lower level bar, the Chalet, serves cocktails and a nice selection of wine.
