The Honey Paw

"At the Honey Paw, communal tables and mismatched plates show off vibrant New England–influenced Asian dishes like rare beef salad with smoked oyster mayo, peanuts, and pickled carrots; fried wings with lime, chili, and coconut; and lobster wontons in a seafood curry with cauliflower and basil. Don't miss the fry bread with ssamjang butter, smoked lamb khao soi, mapo tofu, and whatever vegetables or noodles are being wok-fried or wok-charred that day. End with soft-serve or a slice of the ever-changing layer cake. This isn't a great place for a big group—space is tight—so come with one or two other people you can (or hope to) snuggle up to." - Alexandra Hall

"Sophisticated and bright Asian restaurant The vibe Hip, buzzy, popular The crowd Young hipsters and foodies The drinks Exciting and super-drinkable The food Asian noodles with a New England touch" - Mindy Fox

"This Asian fusion restaurant from the owners of Eventide Oyster Co. and Hugo’s features one type of ramen. It often changes, but recently was duck tonkatsu in a spicy and rich opaque pork broth." - Kate McCarty

"Let the oversized communal table that anchors The Honey Paw, a cool, quirky, and modern boîte, be your first clue as to where the emphasis lies. The sparsely designed room, decked out in honeycomb motifs at every turn, is all about eating delicious fare and having fun while you're at it. Everything arrives on mismatched china, and the experience is meant to be shared with others—friends, strangers, and everyone in between." - Alexandra Hall

"If you walked past The Honey Paw by chance, you’d probably think it was just another brightly-colored bar. And then you’d walk inside, hear the music, and see that they also play great vinyl. And once the door closed behind you, you’d notice that everyone inside is actually eating bowls and plates of papaya salad, noodles, and fried chicken. This sister restaurant to Eventide serves a mix of dishes from across Asia, like Vietnamese crepes and smoked lamb khao soi, along with great cocktails. Even if you don’t make it here for dinner or brunch, come by for a drink and make sure to get the caramelized honey soft serve for dessert." - Team Infatuation
