Colin and Heather Lynch, together with partner Jefferson Macklin, open Bar Mezzana, their first restaurant, in Boston's South End district. The team's energetic journey brings the simplicity and elegance of coastal Italian cooking to a modern, colorful environment at 360 Harrison Avenue, after more than 30 years of operating Barbara Lynch's internationally acclaimed restaurants. Genuine, warm service and hospitality are underlined by Aperol spritzes, an award-winning Crudo cuisine, and a career immersed in pasta creation. Bar Mezzana's wine program, led by Heather Lynch and Beverage Director Ryan Lotz, has a carefully chosen range of varietals to complement Chef Lynch's cuisine, including both well-known bottles and lesser-known (but equally excellent) finds. The cocktail menu has a similar chemistry with the meals. The list contains the perfect Negroni, the perfect Spritz, a handful of seasonal drinks, and a selection of Amari, all of which are heavily influenced by the seasons and traditional Italian cocktails. Colin is a native New Englander who grew up in Newburyport, Massachusetts and attended the Culinary Institute of America for his Bachelor's Degree in Professional Studies before settling in Boston. He had an internship at Chef Barbara Lynch's flagship restaurant No. 9 Park while at the CIA and returned to work with Barbara after graduation. Chef Barbara Lynch got the James Beard Award for "Best Chef Northeast" in 2003 while he was on the team. After that, starting in 2004, Colin was appointed to Chef de Cuisine at No. 9 Park. Colin assisted Chef Barbara Lynch in developing menus and staff when she expanded to the South End with B&G Oysters and The Butcher Shop. Colin's efforts during the opening of Menton resulted in the restaurant receiving Boston's first Relais & Chateaux designation, being nominated for "Best New Restaurant" by the James Beard Foundation in 2011, being named one of the best new restaurants in the country by Esquire, and receiving The Boston Globe's first four-star review from food editor Devra First. Colin and his wife Heather Lynch, as well as former Gruppo colleague Jefferson Macklin, started their own restaurant in June 2016. The creative crudo, handmade pastas, and welcoming hospitality at Bar Mezzana in Boston's South End have won rave reviews from local press and guests.

With us, you can celebrate a special occasion or host a corporate event. We personalize every meal item and finishing touch. In our semi-private lounge at Legal Crossing, we can accommodate 25 guests for a cocktail reception. A 75-person seated dinner and 80-person cocktail reception are possible with a partial buy-out. For larger parties, a full buy-out is offered for up to 125 people for seated events and 160 people for a cocktail reception.

The Berkowitz family opened a fish market in Cambridge's Inman Square neighborhood in 1950, giving birth to the Legal Sea Foods brand. Customers were granted "Legal Stamps" (forerunners of S&H green stamps) with their purchases at a related family business adjacent to the market at the time, a grocery store called Legal Cash Market. The name "Legal" became linked with excellence and freshness throughout this time. The first Legal Sea Foods restaurant debuted in 1968, directly across from the fish market. The fish was simply grilled or cooked before being distributed on paper plates at communal picnic tables. The Company's commitment to quality standards, freshness, and the integrity of the entire pier-to-plate process remains unchanged today. By concentrating on people (our employees and guests) and excellence in everything we do, we continue to raise the bar and set the brand apart from the competition. So when we declare, "If it isn't fresh, it isn't Legal!" we're reaffirming a dedication that has kept the brand alive for more than 50 years.

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.

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.
