Description:
BACK BAY. Located as it is in Copley Place, Osushi certainly doesn't want for lack of business. Of course, the convenience factor only partially explains this place's appeal. Hip and very sexy, the black and red minimalist space draws a cool mix of business types, international travelers and Back Bay hipsters. Sushi and sashimi are masterfully prepared using only the freshest available ingredients, and each dish is evocatively presented. The sake selection, unsurprisingly, draws vast approval from those who fancy themselves rice wine connoisseurs, and more adventurous palates should consider taking the plunge in one of the bar signature saketinis. |

BACK BAY. This restaurant-lounge captures the true spirit and style of Spain, from the easy-going air to the colorful art to the intoxicating music. Not just a pretty scene, BarLola also sees to discriminating palates' tastes for "tapas y vino." Indeed, small cold and hot plates like mixed olives with Canary Island dressing and Andalucian braised lamb, respectively, dominate the menu. Meanwhile, the wine list is composed of hand-selected Spanish vintages, and their sangria is legendary. What's more, the signature elixir, the Lolita (Stoli Perik, Gran Torres and mango juice), is as potently delish as they come. |
