I had a lovely evening with Rachel, Meghan and Monika, the Director of Food and Beverages. We chatted together for several hours while we dined our way through several courses. I have to say that I am always consistently impressed with the dishes and service at Turner Fisheries. I have found that this kind of consistency isn't all that common, which is why it makes such a lasting impression on me.
Some of the standouts from the evening included the following:
| Dirty Martini With Blue Cheese-Stuffed Olives |
| These grilled Island Creek oysters with maitaki mushrooms and reisling cream was the best thing I've eaten in months! |
| Crispy Calamari with Pappadew Peppers, Capers and Roasted Garlic Aioli |
| I loved the delicate flavors of this Golden Beet Salad with the creamiest goat cheese and basil oil. |
| Thank you Monika for ordering this Jonah Crab Cake with Apple Slaw and Tamarind Reduction! |
| The Grilled Salmon was perfectly grilled and buttery in my mouth. |
| I loved this version of Bok Choy Kimchi! |
| We were too stuffed to really indulge in the dessert sampler, but I loved, loved, loved the butternut squash ice cream! |
It was wonderful to dine at Turner Fisheries and enjoy their seasonal fall dishes. I'm definitely looking forward to returning there soon for some more of those delightful grilled oysters!
Full disclosure: The dinner was complimentary, but as always, my opinion is honest and completely my own.
Turner Fisheries is located in the Westin Copley Place at 10 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA.

That's one place I never think of going! But it looks like an amazing selection of food! Plus I love a good bloody mary
Wow, looks like an incredible meal! I love the addition of the blue cheese-stuffed olives in that martini, too.
Oysters look delish - glad you had a good time!
Do you think the service and food are superb because you're getting the blogger special? I've actually been to a catered event at Turner Fisheries before and enjoyed it there but their cheesy tvs outside prevent me from going back for dinner (on my own dollar). It just seems like a tourist trap. Is that silly?
