Chart House Restaurant

I just discovered that there is a Chart House Restaurant on Long Wharf in Boston. We ate in two of them in Florida where the food was freshly prepared and delicious.



Is the one on Long Wharf good? And if so, do they require reservations and is it easy to find on foot?



Thanks!

Last I heard, The Chart House is a reliable chain, the location is superb. Very Easy to find on foot, it%26#39;s at the end of Long Wharf (near the Aquarium) on the left.





Another seafood restaurant you might want to check out in the same neighborhood is Legal Seafood%26#39;s. This is a local chain known for their feshness - but can be a little pricey. Enjoy your visit to this area of town!

The Chart House couldn%26#39;t be in a nicer spot, right at the end of Long Wharf near the Marriott. You can walk there easily from anywhere downtown and a stone%26#39;s throw from the Aquarium T stop it%26#39;s a snap from everywhere else.





I know many others here recommend Legal%26#39;s, but I think they%26#39;ve jumped the shark. Take the Chart House.




is the menu still on oars?




Not the one in Boston. We were there a few weeks ago and it was paper!




Chart House has a nice location but its over-priced and over rated.



If you want value or high end check out these options



#9 Park which is on Park Street



Parkers Restaurant which is in the Omni Parker House HOtel and they are celebrating 150th Anniversary Year and they Invented Parker House Roll, Boston Creme Pie,Scrod and even Emeril Lagasse got his start there



Its right on the Freedom Trail and walkng distance to all the sites and plenty of other Restaurants are right around there.




Thank you for all the input. Will we be able to just walk in and get a table on Sat night or should I call ahead and make reservations?



We may try Legal Seafood too as that has been getting good reviews.





We will be coming back to Boston from Waltham and using the T. Thanks for the info on that stop near the Aquarium! Every little bit of info helps.




Here are some reviews of the Chart House:

To me, it%26#39;s overpriced and the food is okay but not great. It%26#39;s also part of a national chain. If you%26#39;re going to Boston I%26#39;d go somewhere that%26#39;s unique to that city, not a place that you can find anywhere.




Thanks Stephani for your input.



I agree that Chart House is a chain but we have never been disappointed with their food and we don%26#39;t have one in NYS. It was familiar so I was leaning that way.



What are some of your favorite eating places? We would like to have one night of good food, wine and atmosphere as it is our anniversary. The other 3 nites can be casual with good local food.




Cat here%26#39;s a link that should take you to a thread that we had about restaurants in Boston a month or two ago. Should give you tons of ideas...

I really like the Chart House. Yes, it%26#39;s part of a chain, but doesn%26#39;t feel like one. The location is great, the old building really interesting, the food and service good. I go there a couple of times a year and have never made a reservation for a weeke night. I would take it over Legal Seafood%26#39;s (talk about over-rated chain restaurants) anyday.
