1928 Beacon Hill

1928 Beacon Hill serves dinner in an antique-filled room on Mount Vernon Street. The New England American menu includes clam chowder and a burger, but also fried lobster tail with maple-chili butter, steak frites and pappardelle Bolognese made with beef, wild boar and guanciale. It is a place where a small shared starter can easily become the beginning of a full dinner.

The restaurant offers weekend brunch as well as evening service, with cocktails and wine at the bar. A separate gluten-free dinner menu helps narrow the choices before you speak with your server. Book the Beacon Hill branch when reserving; 1928 also has a Rowes Wharf restaurant. For this one, head inland to Mount Vernon Street rather than toward the harbor.
