Best American Restaurants in Financial District

Bartenders were excellent very attentive the night before. Next morning wait staff was good but I had to get up to ask the hostess for more of a refill of coffee (no big deal), otherwise wait staff was good.

Fin Point is a very nice restaurant located at the Dagny Hotel in Boston; we were in town for Christmas and wound up at Fin Point nearly every night because we loved the atmosphere and food. Most of the meals are somewhat pricey (although probably not when compared to other Boston dining establishments) but the restaurant does offer flatbreads, salads, soups and appetizers if the entrees seem a bit expensive. However, the food is worth the cost! We had the meatball and ricotta flatbread twice because we loved it so much, and both the ravioli and bolognese were excellent. We were also pleased to note that there was a good draft beer selection. As the restaurant was decorated for the holidays it was was extremely cozy and that's one of the main reasons we kept returning; the staff was another since everyone was pleasant and helpful. I would point anyone looking for a tasty meal and a comfortable atmospshere to Fin Point without hesistation.

This was our first time at Vermilion, and we will definitely be back! We went for a Christmas Eve lunch, and will return to try the dinner menu as well. Our lunch was fabulous and reasonably priced, especially excellent the food and service were. While it appears to be primarily a restaurant that specializes in steaks, at least for lunch we found the appetizers and side dishes to be superb as well. Cases in point: the broiled clams were so tasty, the French Onion Dumplings were delightful, and the Crispy Artichokes are a MUST! I had the French Dip, which was miles beyond any such sandwich I’ve had before: incredibly tender, on crispy yet light bread with Gruyère cheese and a perfect horseradish sauce on the side. (The skinny French fries that came with it were absolutely addictive.) My dining partner had the Spicy Steak Salad and he loved it. Our server Carlos was a true professional: gracious and attentive, knowledgeable about the menu and the wines, and happy to engage in conversation (though never intrusive). The location is great for me because I live and work near downtown and the Wharf District. The Vermilion is on the second floor of a new building, and you could easily walk past it if you weren’t looking for it specifically. Once inside, it’s quite comfortable and has a lovely island bar. The lounge-style seating is comfortable, classy yet relaxed. I look forward to visiting again, and can’t wait to try the dinner options!

Excellent service and delicious food! My Godson suggested this restaurant to celebrate his birthday and it was a great choice. The waitress was very engaging but not over the top. Drinks and food came pretty quickly. I would definitely go back.

Best restaurant in Downtown! Amazing food and service.
