Boston Restaurant Week is actually two weeks long and ended last Friday. About 200 restaurants had special menus, about $20 for lunch and $30 for dinner. Some people complain it's not the real experience of the restaurant, others think it's a great way to try places you've been meaning to. I did one dinner and 3 lunches. All were quite good.
Dinner at Beacon Hill Bistro

So what did you think of the food?
As I said, all were quite good. I'd go back to any of them. Top of the Hub was fine, but on a clear day the view is really great. I should have added that Oishii was amazing. Perhaps the best sushi I've had. Their normal lunch is $26 so not too bad.
