The Fall 2017 Restaurant Opening Guide: Boston Proper

It’s a delicious season

Fall 2017 has been an exciting season in the Boston dining scene. There were many restaurant openings, including a number of expansions of well-loved local restaurants. Moody’s Delicatessen, for example, expanded from Waltham to Back Bay; Union Square’s Ebi Sushi got a Fenway sibling, Sushi Kappo; and Lolita Cocina & Tequila Bar expanded from Back Bay to Fort Point.

The season also included the expansions of a few high-profile out-of-towners, such as Portland’s Eventide Oyster Co., which got a sibling spot (with a slightly different concept) in Fenway; New York’s extraordinarily popular food cart and restaurant empire, the Halal Guys; and a massive New York-based music venue and restaurant with a focus on wine, City Winery.

Here’s the rundown on fall 2017 restaurant openings in Boston proper, listed by neighborhood, with a sneak peek at the end at some openings that’ll take place beyond fall.

For fall 2017 openings in other nearby areas, consult the full index or jump directly to one of the following guides:

Greater Boston (including Brookline, Newton, Watertown, and more)

North Shore (including Amesbury, Salem, and more)

This guide was initially published on August 23, 2017; it is being updated periodically through the end of fall 2017, and the date of the most recent update appears above. Something missing? Email [email protected].

77 Harvard Ave., Allston, Boston

This dessert-focused shop serves Thai-style ice cream rolls, ice cream-filled crepes, bubble tea, and more. (There are also savory crepe options.) The name might refer to minus 89 degrees Celsius, the coldest recorded temperature on Earth (Antarctica, 1983). Opened: Late September 2017

Our Fathers Delicatessen [NOW OPEN]

196 N. Harvard St., Lower Allston, Boston

This “modern Jewish deli inspired by old school tradition but firmly rooted in new school ways” comes from the group behind Franklin Cafe, Tasty Burger, and Citizen Public. It’s in the Continuum building in Lower Allston. One side is for takeout, while the other side is a restaurant and full bar — with nightly dinner until 1:30 a.m. There’s a lot of gin. Opened: December 12, 2017

Sushi Factory [NOW OPEN]

140 Brighton Ave., Allston, Boston

In the longtime Redneck’s space — which, more recently, was briefly home to Kirin Teppanyaki & Wok — there’s now an all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant from the owner of Hi B3ar Ice Cream Roll nearby. Opened: Mid-November 2017

Back Bay

Provided

A spread of food at Dig Inn, which expanded to the Prudential Center this fall.

Citrus & Salt [NOW OPEN]

142 Berkeley St., Back Bay, Boston

Jason Santos has turned Back Bay Harry’s into more of a sibling of one of his other restaurants, Buttermilk & Bourbon — but where Buttermilk & Bourbon focuses on New Orleans-inspired cuisine, Citrus & Salt takes its cues from coastal Mexican. The Citrus & Salt menu features a number of similar items to Buttermilk & Bourbon, but with a South American twist. And there are Dole Whips — with optional rum. Projected opening: November 27, 2017

Dig Inn [NOW OPEN]

Very close to its existing Back Bay location, this fast-casual New York chain with a penchant for local sourcing is now open inside the Prudential Center, serving customizable grain bowls and more. Opened: October 18, 2017

The new location is similar to the original, with the addition of some lighter options, such as grain bowls, avocado toast, bagels, and daily flatbread specials. Plus, he’s adding a couple of adjacent spots to his existing Waltham space. And a holiday season pop-up on Newbury Street. And a California location. Opened: December 11, 2017

Poke Bento and Beard Papa’s [NOW OPEN]

827 Boylston St., Back Bay, Boston

In an unlikely partnership, a new poke spot has teamed up with Japan-based cream puff chain Beard Papa’s for a location that offers plenty of raw fish and sweet desserts. Opened: Early October 2017

Purr Cat Cafe [NOW OPEN]

167 Chestnut Hill Ave., Brighton, Boston

Boston’s first cat cafe. There were numerous delays in the opening process, and the young cafe’s social media presence has been marred by drama, but owner Diane Kelly kept her promise to open the doors this fall. Currently, though, the cafe does not have a partnership with an adoption group, and Kelly does not have staff available to pick up food from area restaurants for patrons to eat at Purr. In its current form, Purr is a place where people can come and play with Kelly’s own cats for $15/hour. Opened: November 18, 2017
