The Best New Restaurants Around Boston, July 2025 | Eater Boston

"Xenia Greek Hospitality, the chart-topping Greek restaurant team behind the impossible-to-get-into Back Bay spot Krasi and the award-winning Brookline restaurant Bar Vlaha, has done it again. This time, CEO Demetri Tsolakis, alongside culinary director Brendan Pelley and executive chef (and Menton alum) Felipe Goncalves, explore the Aegean coastline with a spectacular lineup of whole-grilled fish and inventive small plates like cod cheeks with seaweed trahana, kritamo, and a smoked avgolemono. As expected, there’s a well-sourced Greek wine list to complement dinner, plus a cocktail lineup with new twists on classic drinks that is fun to explore." - Erika Adams
