Best Seafood in Boston: Where to Eat It | Condé Nast Traveler
"The open secret of Boston’s seafood scene is that many of the best restaurants in the city pull their hauls from Red’s. Tucked into the back of Boston Public Market , it has a long counter with a handwritten menu that showcases the raw fish, grab-and-go salads, and sushi, as well as the New England classics fried up in the back. Here, a simple-is-better philosophy sets the bar high: the scallops in the Day Boat Sea Scallop Roll ($17), for example, are lightly tossed in flour, fried, and popped into a grilled, buttered bun with tartar sauce. On the first Sunday of every month, Red's offers buck-a-shuck oysters—go for those before digging into the rest of the menu. Industry folks love Red’s because it educates customers, highlighting lesser-known fish species that are big on flavor but low on name recognition." - Elizabeth Wellington, Andrew Sessa
