8 Places to Go for Father's Day

"Best for: Dads who are foodies Why we love it: In the past few years, Boston has emerged as a top culinary and cocktail destination. Here’s your itinerary: In the Italian-centric North End, check out Tony & Elaine’s, a new, kitsch Italian-American joint that pays homage to mom and pop holes-in-the-wall of yesteryear, with colossal mozzarella sticks and heaping plates of perfected chicken parm. For a more sophisticated take on Italian, reserve a table at Terra, the flagship restaurant of Boston’s Eataly outpost, set in a stunning rooftop garden. Dishes like the house-made squid-ink cavatelli and coal-roasted beet tartare impress in both taste and presentation. At Shore Leave, a subterranean tiki bar and restaurant, dishes are an eclectic, gastronomic tour through Asia-Pacific (hello: scallion pancake with spicy King Crab dip). Finally, for a night spent sampling forward-thinking cocktails and calorie-rich bar snacks, head to The Longfellow Bar at Alden & Harlow, led by award-winning chef and restaurateur Michael Scelfo. Overnight at the just-opened Four Seasons Hotel One Dalton Street, a striking glass skyscraper that stands as the Boston’s third tallest building." - Paul Rubio
