Eastern Standard is located on Comm Ave directly adjacent to the four-star Hotel Commonwealth. Their dinner menu features finely prepared steaks and seafood with an evident French influence. Appetizers like Ceviche from the raw bar mix Boston’s famous seafood with non-traditional recipes. This restaurant is perfect for a traveler with a comfortably thick wallet and a penchant for classy cuisine. If you're looking for things to see in Boston, don't miss this.
Over the T station and across the street is UBurger: an inexpensive American eatery with themed burgers and sandwiches. Soon opening their third Boston location, this chain has become a college student staple up and down Comm Ave. Build-your-own burger or chicken sandwich, add fries and a drink, all for around eight bucks.
Heading outbound back on Comm you’ll find Maluken. It’s an otherwise plain-looking Asian restaurant with slightly (or rather) tacky lamps hanging from the awning. Step inside and you will encounter your first surprise of the evening: the restaurant’s likely about two-thirds empty. There’s probably one table of soon-drunk BU girls doing sake bombs, and perhaps four others filled with in-the-know couples. The second surprise will come once the food arrives. Huge boats of sushi will astound you with their unusual deliciousness. While many sushi restaurants meld traditional recipes with subtle flair, Maluken has made mainstream sushi a masterpiece. Lastly, you’ll look at the bill and realize that, in all likelihood, your Japanese feast has cost less than thirty dollars for two people.
Kenmore Square is located at the intersection of Commonwealth Avenue and Beacon Street, a two-minute walk from Fenway Park. Take the Green Line to Kenmore. If you're looking for things to do in Boston, don't miss out.
