Morse Fish Company
The Morse Fish Company is situated in Boston's South End. It has been serving the freshest seafood since 1903. The restaurant is a historic, classic Boston restaurant. It has had only three owners in more than a century. Priding itself on cooking without trans fats and offering low prices, you can order your seafood broiled or fried.
As "the oldest fish market in Boston," the Morse Fish Company does not disappoint those seeking fresh, simple Boston seafood such as crab cakes, popcorn shrimp or a lobster salad sandwich. After dinner, take a refreshing walk and see the area's beautiful brownstone homes. The Morse Fish Company's unassuming facade hides the delicious seafood within this historic clam shack.

Legal Seafoods Long Wharf
There are nine Legal Seafoods locations in the city of Boston, four of which are located at Logan airport. However, the Long Wharf location is enjoyable for those who want to be next to the water while dining. It is directly next to the Boston Aquarium and the ocean.
Legal Seafoods can cater to your every need, with a separate gluten free menu, a menu for children and a private dining menu. Going against the chain restaurant stereotype, Legal Seafoods prides itself on serving fresh, raw oysters, clam chowder, a grilled swordfish Reuben and Louisiana gumbo. You can practically smell the salt air when dining at the Long Wharf Legal Seafoods. After lunch or dinner, you truly can take in the ocean. Watch the boats coming and going along the harbor.

The Barking Crab
Extremely recognizable due to its bright yellow and orange rooftop, the Barking Crab is more than a gimmick. The longstanding seafood restaurant offers classic New England seafood in rare dishes, such as lobster ravioli, shrimp scampi and lobster bisque.
Perhaps after a trip to the Boston Children's Museum right down the street, the entire family can enjoy a meal in a casual, fun setting right on the water's edge. No guest will go home unhappy or hungry. Walk off the meal after dinner along Boston's cobblestone, waterfront paths.

Foody-Driven
The restaurant Neptune Oyster was rated the best seafood restaurant in Boston for 2009 by "Boston Magazine." Serving creative, incredibly fresh dishes, the Neptune Oyster is a special treat for all lovers of food. Guests can stick to classic seafood dishes. These include New England clam chowder, fried clams and lobster rolls. Diners might also try the Neptune burger, which is a cheeseburger with friend oysters and garlic mayonnaise.
Located in the historic North End of Boston, Neptune Oyster is perfectly situated for a lovely after-dinner walk through the largely Italian Boston neighborhood that has the feel of an old European city. Since it's a casual restaurant, guests often wear beach clothes in preparation for the fun.
