The twice-a-year foodie extravaganza Dine Out Boston returns March 12–25, giving locals and visitors alike a unique opportunity to nosh on special meals at even more special prices at some of the Boston area’s favorite eateries. With lunch prices set at $22, $27 or $32 and dinner priced at $36, $41 or $46, it’s easy to check out old favorites like the North End’s Assaggio and Bricco or the Back Bay’s Abe & Louie’s and Davio’s Northern Italian Steakhouse, as well as newer hot spots like the South End’s Spain- and Portugal-inspired Atlantico (pictured) and the glamorous Grana at the Langham Hotel in Post Office Square. The list of more than 100 establishments that are participating continues to grow, so there’s no lack of options, whether you’re in the mood for seafood, sushi, udon noodles, tacos or a good, old-fashioned burger. If you’re feeling charitable, there’s even an online auction for $100 restaurant gift certificates beginning March 13 that benefits Dine Out’s non-profit partners. Social media mavens can even enter a contest to win $100 gift certificates by tagging their best Instagram posts of their dining experience with #DineOutBoston. Ways to get in on the action abound, so make your reservation (or two or three) now to enjoy the best culinary finds the city has to offer.
