Dovetail Restaurant

Dovetail sits on Sixth Street in the Charlestown Navy Yard, with a restaurant menu that gives handmade pasta plenty of attention. Bigoli cacio e pepe, cavatelli with pork sugo, and rigatoni with vodka sauce sit alongside seafood and dishes such as chicken Milanese. The raw bar offers oysters, while mussels with miso butter make another starting point for a shared dinner.

There’s also a separate shop for deli-style orders, so check which menu you’re browsing before making plans. The restaurant serves daytime meals as well as dinner, with weekend brunch and a limited afternoon menu between the main services. Reserve a table if you want to settle in, and check the current selection as dishes change with the season.
