Best of Boston

2016 Best Restaurant, General Excellence, South

The Quarry Restaurant and Lounge

This spacious, sleek restaurant and lounge is ideal for a romantic dalliance, or just a night away from the kids: Executive Chef Greg Jordan’s spirited takes on American fare—crispy cider-glazed pork belly; brick chicken with pear-and-mascarpone pasta purses—tango with unusual cocktails like “Snow Falling on Cedars” (whiskey, cedar-infused Aperol, sherry, egg whites).
