Answer 2

Southiegirl gives you great advice. There is also an excellent Italian place on Tremont Street in the block that abuts the Opera House but I forget its name. However you may have to have to order glasses, not a bottle, of wine at that and Southiegirl's places in order to keep under your $ 100 budget, depending on which entrees you choose. Why K. Chick does not know Ruth Chris' is an (EXPENSIVE!!) national steak house chain I cannot imagine; anyway it is a 12-15 minute walk away. As to Robert S' suggestions, I go down that part of Washington Street two or 3 times a week and I have never seen them. I think Robert may be an out of town Yahoo Answers junkie who looked up the Opera House address and then searched for restaurants nearby. What he does not know is that within the Boston city limits there are THREE (count 'em) Washington Streets. By the names of the places he cites I would guess they are located on the Washington Street in the Dorchester-Roxbury part of the city.

Answer 3

My favorite restaurant is right near the Theater district. The Rustic Kitchen is located at 210 Stuart Street. They have DELICIOUS food, no matter what you get. The atmosphere is SO nice. And the drinks are to die for. I love it there, really. I've put a link to their website below so you can see if you like it!



If you think you are looking for something different, you could easily walk to Finale. It's a dessert restaurant in Boston will amazing Boston Cream Pie, cookies, cakes, etc. It's very nice, but a little expensive in my opinion. They have salads and small things to eat as well, and a nice wine list but the focus is really dessert.



Other options would be Brew Moon, which borders in my opinion on feeling like a chain restaurant a little too much for theater dining but it's GOOD food at reasonable prices, honestly this is probably my second choice. It's a pub type place with excellent burgers, and it's always fun to try their different beers. To their credit, they do try to be very innovative on the menu. Their website is below as well.



If you like Chinese food, I'm sure people will recommend P.F. Changs, which is close by. It's a little pricey, but over all is nice, and the food is good quality.



Enjoy your time!

Answer 4

PICCO

Even students on a budget need a date place. Picco has a chic South End location, a revolving menu of sandwiches, thin-crust designer pizzas, and great ice cream. "Romantic but cheap," says one student. She and her boyfriend recently spent in the mid-$30 range and had fish tacos, crab cakes, a salad, and a glass of wine each. The ice cream is a little pricey, but worth the splurge.

Answer 5

California Pizza Kitchen! Right in the middle of the theater district. Sit down restaurant with waiters... Kinda like an upper class pizza place, only prices are still cheap!

Answer 6

If you're in the mood for seafood try Legal Seafood. They have some of the best seafood you'll find in town. There are also plenty of asian places nearby since the Theatre District is not far from Chinatown. Check out the source link for more details. Or check out the restaurant section of boston.co and search for restaraunts near Tremont St.

Answer 7

Right around the corner from the Boston Common is P F Changs...it's wonderful!!!!

Answer 8

You are making me hungry thinking of this. : ) PF Changs is a great experience. Awesome food. It is a little pricier than normal chinese or asian cuisine, but I believe they have a cheaper lunch menu. Fajitas and Ritas is really good too if you like that type of cuisine.
