Located in the heart of South Boston, Lincoln is a classic American tavern that offers guests a welcoming combination of home-spun, American fare alongside a wide variety of rustic, wood-fire-grilled specialties.Built with the intention of being a comfortable meeting spot for locals looking to share stories at the end of their long day, Lincoln draws inspiration from it’s surrounding, hard-working, and uniquely American neighborhood.Revitalizing a nearly forgotten West Broadway space that at one time housed the area’s only department store, Lincoln feels nostalgic. It’s open-air, tiled-floor cafe, grande bar, and soaring, original tin ceilings remind us of a time when dining halls and supper clubs were a way of life.

    Stopped by for a quick drink & a few tacos. We got the fish tacos and birria. Two were plenty, they were really delicious and filling. Fish tacos 10/10, Birria was 9/10 flavor profile was there but the meat was a little dry, even with the dip. Really cool spot though, I loved this location. Ambiance 10/10. Really nice staff! The place smelled incredible.

    So at the heart of it, it’s really all about the food and the food here is Wonder Full. Yeah my partner, and I often talk about the seasonings, but in this case, it was so much more it was the subtle layers or the blending together like a ballet of flavors, components, and cooking methods. We weren’t sure if it would be as good as all the hype, but it is the room is very small and it’s hard not to be somewhere in the room where it’s tight. But the service which was connected, efficient and caring was impressive. We signed up for the New Year’s Eve dinner on the spot. So glad to have these people who own and run this restaurant in such a community and caring manner close by and a neighborhood which is generally overlooked for restaurants of any quality. BRAVO!
