This week marks part 2 of Dine Out Boston, AKA the “new” Restaurant Week. And if you haven’t made your reservations yet, we recommend giving the lunch and dinner prix fixe menus a glance over before booking your table. With numerous options, neighborhoods and (now) prices to choose from, the restaurant decision isn’t an easy one.
Which is why we recommend putting dessert first! If you can’t decide which restaurant to try, we suggest making your decision based upon the dessert offerings. Along with appetizers and entrees, many of the participating restaurants are also serving up decadent Dine Out Boston desserts. We’ve rounded up some of our faves below. Take a look and let us know which sweet sounds the best to you!
