1. Sam LaGrassa’s

Enjoy lunch at one of Boston’s top sandwich locations. Sam LaGrassa’s stays busy serving lunch Monday through Friday from 11 am to 3:30 pm. Depending on your appetite, you may choose a bowl of soup instead of a sandwich or start with a bowl of soup while waiting for your sandwich to be prepared.

Fresh and tasty specialties include Grilled Chipotle Pastrami, Pastrami on Rye, and the popular Potato and Egg sandwich. Additional favorite items include pulled BBQ chicken and roast beef. Although a bit on the expensive side, customers vow it is worth every cent. The shop shortens the line for dine-ins with its separate entrance for takeout. The restaurant’s corporate catering menu makes it easier to plan lunch for workshop and conferences attendees, business meetings and family get-togethers.

2. Mistral

A refined French-Mediterranean restaurant in Boston’s South End, Mistral has been in business for over 20 years. Reservations are recommended to avoid a lengthy time in line or being turned away instead of fed. There is no need to feel alone if you’re by yourself. Take a seat at the bar and enjoy the company around you.

The noise level in the lounge and dining area has a reputation for being loud. If a serious subject is planned with dinner, it could be difficult following the conversation. Specialty appetizers include Maine Crab Ravioli and steamed black mussels. If browsing through Back Bay’s boutiques failed to increase your appetite, skip the appetizer and order one of Mistral’s popular entrees. Duck, sole, and grilled tenderloin of beef typically receive glowing comments from happy patrons.

Doesn’t the idea of eating an outdoor brunch on Saturday or Sunday sound inviting? The brunch at Abe & Louie’s has a well-deserved reputation for appealing presentation, including the lovely outside seating when the weather’s accommodating. Their weekend brunch starts at 11 am and ends at 3 pm. Eggs are served in a variety of ways, including sunny side up with a steak on the side or an omelet filled with your choice of items, such as lobster and shrimp. Sandwiches, fresh veggies, and salads are additional options in addition to assorted fresh veggies. The French toast is served with pecans and a maple banana topping.
