East Coast Grill

|East Coast Grill

The Overview: Seafood is taken seriously at this Cambridge restaurant. That’s why, in addition to an exhaustive raw bar loaded with local faves such as oysters, clams, and crab claws, there are three different shrimp dishes on the menu. Dig into the peel-and-eat Gulf shrimp, steamed in Old Bay Seasoning and beer, or the traditional shrimp cocktail, icy cold and spiced up with house-made cocktail sauce. And relax, carnivores: You won’t go hungry. Chef Chris Schlesinger gets the credit for bringing authentic barbecue to Boston—try the dry-rubbed pork ribs platter or the burnt ends—and inventing the ultimate hot sauce, Inner Beauty, which plays a starring role in the thrice-annual Hell Night, Schlesinger’s paean to spicy food.
