A pre-Lyric dinner
Faithful Reader Phil e-mailed me this request. I told him Abacrombie was closed at the moment as far as I knew, and sent him a couple of the usual suspects, but I wonder if anyone has had good luck recently at a restaurant before a performance. Please post any recommendations below:
Good Afternoon Elizabeth! Once again I call on you for a recommendation of a quality restaurant near the Lyric (other then Abacrombie or Prime Rib). If there is a good spot that you can recommend, we would like to try it. Of course, It is another situation where we will "eat and run" to the Lyric for an 8PM Show on December 8th (a Saturday) Again, Many thanks!

Neo Viccino on Charles Street has been excellent the last two times we've tried it. It is certainly busy when there is a show though. It clears out after 8 p.m. http://www.viccino.com/
And there's always b in bolton hill.

My wife and I enjoy B on nights when we go to the symphony, opera, or even Everyman Theatre. Robert Oliver Seafood is more walkable and can be quite good. Other thoughts are Sammy's Trattoria on Charles Street or Dukem (with the note that Dukem can be very slow so leave plenty of time.)

We had a wonderful meal at Robert Oliver and the service was amazing. We even had dessert and at no point felt rushed!
