For Father's Day dining ideas, here are two excellent lists of restaurant suggestions:<\/strong><\/p>\n Open Table always does a great job guiding you to the right reservation.<\/a> What's more, you can just click through and reserve from this list<\/a>. <\/p>\n Boston Chefs has a special list from their members<\/a>. <\/p>\n More ideas – last year<\/strong> Eater Boston prepared of list of places to consider.<\/a><\/p>\n Would your Dad love to get his hands on some great seafood offerings at Select Oyster Bar? (They do have a steak on the menu, if that would make it a good choice.)<\/span><\/em> Select Oyster Bar<\/a> is a great option this Father's Day. Here are a couple of links to some of the meals we've enjoyed there. <\/p>\n Blue Prawns on the Plancha at Select Oyster Bar<\/a><\/p>\n SELECT Oyster Bar: Our First Taste<\/a><\/p>\n Row 34<\/a><\/strong> in the Fort Point Neighborhood. Wouldn't Dad love to slurp a few Island Creeks or Row 34 oysters? And match those beauties with the perfect brew from one of the taps or the current cask beer?<\/p>\n Here's more on what we've enjoyed at Row 34 …<\/a><\/p>\n Sweet Cheeks Q<\/a> in the Fenway may seem to be just for the meat lovers in the clan, but they put out some great veggies and a tray of hot and cold scoops (as they call them) with a remarkable farm salad that will put a smile on anyone with a preference for vegetarian fare. And remember to order the crazy-good biscuits. (You may want to treat Dad to a doggie bag of them for the rest of the week!) Check out our Sweet Cheeks posts:<\/p>\n Sweet Cheeks BBQ: A First Look<\/a><\/p>\n Sweet Cheeks Q- Great Northern Brisket<\/a><\/p>\n Salt & Pepper Potatoes at Sweet Cheeks Q<\/a><\/p>\n Bourbon Beer? at Sweet Cheeks<\/a><\/p>\n How about simple Italian-American food in a very comfortable setting. We suggest Artu in the North End or on Charles Street in Beacon Hill.<\/a> Here's one of our favorite menu items.<\/a><\/p>\n If you'd like to treat Dad to something really special, consider the ultimate hamburger at the Bristol Lounge at the Four Season's Hotel.<\/a> Lunch there for just the two of you, some quiet afternoon, could be a great IOU<\/a> if you can't be together on the 21st. Here's what we wrote about that burger.<\/a><\/p>\n Another great spot to share a meal, any day of the week, is Coppa in the South End<\/a>. You can even top off your meal with a quick shopping trip to Formaggio Kitchen South End<\/a> across the street. We always do! And that will let you create a super take-home gift that Dad can help select. Need more convincing? Take a look at:<\/p>\n Friday Lunch at Coppa, an Italian Seduction<\/a><\/p>\n Coppa Italian Grinder: A Best Bite<\/a><\/p>\n Coppa- A First Look<\/a><\/p>\n Photo of Evelyn's Drive-In, Tiverton, Rhode Island<\/a> courtesy of that great resource for finding all the dining traditions Boston and beyond has to offer, Hidden Boston.<\/a><\/p>\n Our final suggestion is a trip down memory lane. Take Dad someplace where he used to take you if you have an old favorite that survives to this day. For Penny, this might be Evelyn's Drive-In. For Ed, The Bubbling Brook<\/a> in Westwood. This day would be about remembering and laughing as much as about the food.<\/p>\n And, for the best gift, let Dad choose something from his Wish List. Get an Amazon gift card<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n
