"Positioned right across from Long Wharf and about a two-minute walk from the aquarium, State Street Provisions is one of the most reliable spots for a sit-down lunch after exploring Boston’s waterfront. There’s something for everyone here: an extensive kids’ menu, a raw bar featuring impressive seafood platters and towers, and indulgent dinners like steak frites and prosciutto-wrapped cod. Visit on a weekday between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. for $1 oysters." - Molly McDonough
