Island Creek Oyster Bar

Seafood restaurant · Fenway

"This elegant mainstay strikes you as a family farm-to-table restaurant of a very different sort. Partner Skip Bennett manages an oyster farm under the same name on the South Shore of Massachusetts, and you can sometimes see him perched over a meal at the dining bar. Chef Jeremy Sewall’s cousin Mark catches the restaurant’s fresh lobsters a few hours north in Maine, and Sewall’s take on a cold lobster roll (tossed in mayo, créme fraîche, and a hint of dill pickle on a homemade rosemary roll) is named after his grandmother Ethel. Staff carries an encyclopedic knowledge of ingredients. Go for the stellar plates and stay for the impeccable service and dynamic wine list." - Elizabeth Wellington, Andrew Sessa
