Nice Boston Restaurant in Boston Commons Area?

Question

I'm looking for a restaurant in the Boston Commons area, preferably seafood, for a group of 25. I'd like it to be somewhat trendy but overall a fancier establishment. We were looking at Legal Seafoods at the Prudential Center or Copley Place, are those nice or pretty franchisee?

Answer 1

I think Legal seafood is not that good.  Try Skip Jacks it is at the corner pf Cleradon and St. James behind Trinity church.  Much better reputation and fancier.

Answer 2

I wouldn't waste my time with chain restaurants

Here is a list of some GREAT places.

Teatro

Mooo

No 9 Park

Mantra

Aria

Locke-Ober

The Bristol Lounge

Maggiano

And for dessert you have to go to

Finale.....they only serve dessert to die for.
