Club Med
Committee (50 Northern Ave., 617-737-5051, committeeboston.com) on Fan Pier in the Seaport District recently debuted on what is already an exciting restaurant scene. Committee adds to the energy by offering fresh Greek and Mediterranean meze (or small dishes) in a stylish setting accented by wine crates suspended from the ceiling and walls. A nightlife-friendly vibe predominates, thanks largely to a bar that turns out creative, hand-made cocktails complemented by an extensive wine list and nearly a dozen local and international beers, including brews from Greece and Lebanon to emphasize the Eastern Mediterranean pedigree. There is one prominent Boston-centric feature of note, however: the restaurant incorporates reclaimed wood from the late, great Anthony’s Pier 4, which once stood nearby.
