Coquette serves fresh seafood, a hot-and-cold raw bar, flatbreads, and upmarket libations in a relaxed ambiance inspired by the flavors of the Basque Country along the Spanish-French coastline. Coquette, which sits cross-legged and sipping a martini on the ground floor of the new Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport, is right across the street from the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, so it'll be a popular spot for visiting professionals to meet for a nightcap before retiring to a room upstairs. Coquette is also the newest addition to COJE Management Group's growing portfolio, which includes Yvonne's, Mariel, Ruka, and Lolita, among other popular, vampy locations for fashionable dining, drinking, and socializing in Boston. Expect Coquette's lovely decor and delectable menu, which features twists on coastal French cuisine, to draw a large number of residents seeking for love at first sight and bite. Inside the 240-seat restaurant, a delicate and beautiful pastel-leaning color scheme of blues, pinks, and lavender has been used. The walls have a slightly iridescent sheen that reminds me of the inside of a nicely formed oyster shell, and there are dried, preserved flowers displayed in seasonal, installation-like groupings developed by East Olivia of New York. Meanwhile, a soundproofed ceiling above the four-sided bar is covered in a replica of François Lemoyne's The Apotheosis of Hercules, a rococo ceiling painting at Versailles known for its beautiful detail (as well as the tortured genius of the artist, who fell on his own sword shortly after). The dining room mural, which is a reproduction of Art Nouveau icon Alphonse Mucha's The Seasons, a series of paintings of nymph-like females representing spring, summer, fall, and winter, has been given a modern aesthetic flourish. Reach out to coordinate your private event today!

Named after Nashville, the vessel is a popular choice for wedding ceremonies and receptions, rehearsal dinners, and corporate dinners and cocktail parties, offering guests the experience of celebrating on the water — exchanging vows at sunset or dancing under the open sky.

Artu was established on the most basic Italian technique: wonderful ingredients served simply. Artu first opened its doors to the world in February 1992, with exceptional sandwiches and mouthwatering roasted meats. Since then, we have continued to improve and grow. We've steadily expanded our repertoire since then. We've created old-world comfort food dishes from those sandwiches and roasted meats, as well as modern versions of those classics that make even the most discerning diner remember about their upbringing. Some may recall our kitchen being hidden behind a high counter that was visible from the dining room. A magnificent granite bar now stands in its stead, serving delectable libations till 2 a.m. A tiny dining area perches above the bar, with views of both the bar and Prince Street. It's ideal for any customer as a private dining area or lounge. The main dining room is large enough to accommodate any size group, and it is noted for its lively atmosphere. Artu has become a go-to for tourists and our North End neighbors alike since those February days in 1992. Do you want Artu to host your next party or event? Simply phone us at 617-742-4336 or fill out the form on the events page of our website, and we'll get back to you as soon as possible! “Decided to try this place at the recommendation of our Uber driver and it definitely didn’t disappoint! Probably the best meal I’ve ever had. Service was wonderful-the servers made you feel right at home!” -Stephanie C.

The Union Oyster House, near Faneuil Hall on the Freedom Trail, holds the distinction of being America's oldest eatery. This Boston institution, housed in a pre-Revolutionary War building, began serving food in 1826 and has remained in the same location ever since, with the stalls and oyster bar, where Daniel Webster was a regular client, in their original locations. Cocktail parties, buffets, and banquets can all be held in one of our private function spaces. Our Private Function Rooms and Private Dining Rooms are available for your next event, banquet, meeting, or party. We can accommodate parties between 20 and 100 persons. It is our goal to make your next gathering a memorable and pleasurable occasion. Our knowledgeable staff is always ready to assist you in arranging your next event. If you have a group of 20 or more persons, please contact our Dining Room Manager at (617) 227-2750. Although Union Street was laid out in 1636, two years after the Boston Common, there are no municipal documents indicating when the Oyster House was built. All that is known is that the structure has stood on Union Street for almost 250 years as a notable neighborhood landmark. The building hosted importer Hopestill Capen's fancy garment goods shop, "At the Sign of the Cornfields," in 1742, before becoming a seafood house. The Boston shoreline had come up to the back door of the dry goods store at this time, making it easy for ships to deliver their cloth and products from Europe. The Union Oyster House has only had three owners since 1826. Mr. Joseph A. Milano, Jr., and Ms. Mary Ann Milano Picardi have been carrying on renowned dining and service traditions since 1970.

This is a slam dunk for romance. Plus, the more committed a restaurant is to seasonal ingredients, the better. (There's nothing more enticing than localism!)
