Locke-Ober. Indisputably one of Boston's most famous restaurants, it is best known for Lobster Savannah ($62), the star of the menu since 1875. The restaurant itself is a single, large, 1800's-era, dark-wood room with subtle lighting. At dinner one night, nearly everyone is having Lobster Savannah, a scene made more surreal by the very large size of the mostly untouched lobsters staring up at each of the mostly elderly diners. Dozens of the immobile red creatures are all oriented in the same position, head facing the diner, the way the waiter places them. (Full review)
