Troquet on South

"If a fancy night out in your book means decadent French fare, consider the chef’s tasting menu at Troquet on South. Choose between five courses for $130 per person or seven for $155 per person. To get an idea of what dinner might include, a la carte dishes range from classics like Burgundy escargot and duck à l’orange to a 10-ounce wagyu NY strip from Kentucky’s Black Hawk Farms. If you want to get extra splurgy, call ahead for a traditional caviar service." - Celina Colby, Nathan Tavares, Eater Staff

"Troquet serves some damn good roasted fish, and it has a damn good wine list too. Don’t want to make decisions? There’s a delightful five- or seven-course chef’s tasting menu available nightly for $130 or $155 per person." - Celina Colby, Eater Staff

"“This is my favorite place to dine and be totally immersed in music (vinyl). When ordering cocktails, there is always a feeling of possibility and versatility. Riffs on classics galore and modern interpretations are at the ready. Creativity flows freely here! All while dining on the best burger in the city. Perfectly seasoned, texturally amazing, and the fries are no sham — they’re utterly delicious!” — Douglass Williams" - Erika Adams

"A modern French restaurant owned by sommelier Chris Campbell that offers approximately 50 wines by the glass in two- or four-ounce pours and a wine book that’s heavy on French red wines. Start your evening with a pour from the Champagne cart, then move on to any of the hearty, wine-friendly dishes, like beef bourguignon or lamb saddle with French truffles and black garlic. All the dishes are listed with suggested wine pairings.Where: 107 South St, Boston, MA 02111" - MATADOR_NETWORK

"French reds steal the show at Troquet on South, a Leather District restaurant that also specializes in modern French cuisine, but starting with a Champagne by the glass is always a smart move if you’re partial to bubbly. Owner and sommelier Chris Campbell is happy to guide you through the extensive list, helping you select a bottle everyone at the table will love. This is a white-tablecloth spot that’s anything but stuffy, refined yet still creative. For a nightcap, pop by Offsuit, a speakeasy-style cocktail bar tucked into a back corner (if you can get a seat, that is)." - Samantha Maxwell
