Below is my yelp review of Eastern Standard Located in the historic Commonwealth Hotel...where I experienced some serious mouthgasms from the silky oysters to the sweet and butter lobster, or shall I say lobstah? Keep in mind, I was in Boston!
Hanging with my besties, doesn't matter what time zone you're in or what the name of the restaurant is. But here we were. Standing by the bar, sipping cocktails ("someone" was throwing back chilled Patron like there was no tomorrow I might add...hmm...) and waiting for our table.
And because I hang with the cool kids, we were specifically waiting for a bar table as they prefer that over the dining room. Hey. I'm the new kid just lucky to hang with the "plastics". I'm happy just to be at any table.
Instantly my Bostonian Buddies started asking all the proper oyster questions...what do you have, where are they from...yadda yadda yadda....I put them in complete control and soon we had a huge iced platter of illustrious oysters and prawns. Those silky oysters were like a big stick of buttah sliding down my throat. And because my mom reads my reviews I will hold off on the sliding down my throat joke just waiting to leap from my fingertips to the keyboard.
I continued with broiled lobster with drawn butter and seared tuna. Hell. I don't even remember what the others ordered! My food was sea lishes!
Eastern Standard is located in the historic Commonwealth Hotel and has some kick ass photography on the second level where the restrooms are located. I visited the second level several times.
Damn Patron.
