"The Anchovy Bar, the youngest sibling of State Bird and The Progress, is a seafood-centric spot that’s been specifically engineered for date nights. Dark tiles and wavy details on the ceiling set the mood for you and a crush to spoon-feed each other oysters and tinned fish in between sips of wine. And bigger dishes, like spiced tomato seafood stew and seasonal crudos, will make you want to find the nearest fish and kiss it on the forehead in gratitude. If you forget to make a reservation, it’s usually easy to slide up to a seat at the bar." - julia chen 1

"What’s not to love about Anchovies? This no-reservations mainstay of the South End serves up hearty Italian American plates like chicken Parm and fried ravioli. Plus, each cocktail order comes with the poured drink and anything left over in the cocktail shaker." - Erika Adams, Karen Wilber

"Chef Stuart Brioza of the Progress and State Bird Provisions has long sung the praises of anchovies, and now his restaurant the Anchovy Bar is the home to that obsession. Brioza and the team laboriously preserve the fish in-house during the anchovy season, but there are other seafood dishes to explore, such as tinned fish from Spain and Italy, oysters and clams, as well as items like halibut crudo and smoked trout riccioli that cycle onto the menu." - Dianne de Guzman, Justine Jones
