Top Cities for Dining in Massachusetts
- Boston — Boston's food scene has evolved well beyond New England clam chowder - the Italian restaurants in the North End remain a draw, but the real energy is in Cambridge and Somerville's international options, Chinatown's Chinese and Vietnamese, and the modern American cooking in the South End and Back Bay. Prices are moderate overall with a significant expensive tier, and the compact walkable scale means more of the city's dining is accessible without a car than in most American metros.
- Cape Cod / Nantucket — Cape Cod and the Islands offer a seasonal, American and seafood-focused dining scene built around exceptional local shellfish and New England traditions. Provincetown and Chatham have the highest quality concentrations on the Cape, with above-average shares of top-rated restaurants, while Nantucket brings resort-town sophistication at prices that lean toward the higher end. Most places are moderately priced, and the season compresses most serious dining activity into summer.
