Best of Boston
2022 Best Neighborhood Restaurant, Seaport
Chickadee
When a pair of No. 9 Park alums nested Chickadee in a Seaport industrial park in 2018, chef John daSilva’s Mediterranean-leaning menu and beverage director Ted Kilpatrick’s expertly tailored cocktails got foodies chirping. Since then, even James Beard has been crowing over the place — for good reason, given the razor-clam-laden bigoli pasta with green garlic, plus a labneh-ranch-dressed fried chicken that positively sings with flavor.
