Pier 6 Fall Menu

11-18-2023

Last week, my family and I revisited Pier 6, nestled at 1 8th St in Charlestown, MA📍. Despite having been there nearly a year ago, this visit was dedicated to exploring their enticing fall menu.

Our libation journey began with the “Paper Boat,” a delightful concoction of Maker’s Mark bourbon, aperol, and zesty lemon🍋. A must-try for bourbon enthusiasts, this cocktail set the tone for an evening of palate-pleasing experiences. The classic margarita featuring Ocho Blanco tequila, triple sec, and lime, along with the Piña Colada infused with Blue Chair coconut rum, added a tropical flair. Wrapping up the prelude was the timeless classic, the espresso martini🍸 – a perfect prelude to a delightful meal.

Venturing into appetizers, the Blackened Swordfish🐟 Tacos🌮 showcased a harmonious blend of flavors, accented by avocado lime crema and jicama slaw, earning a solid 8/10. The fried calamari🦑, adorned with sliced cherry peppers, earned a commendable 7/10 for its well-seasoned, zesty appeal. A visual and gastronomic delight, the tuna tartare with avocado🥑, mango🥭, chili oil, and wontons stood out as a favorite, offering a delightful sharing experience.

Transitioning to the main course, the grilled hanger steak with broccoli and watercress salad proved to be a satisfactory choice, meriting a 7/10. However, stealing the spotlight were the pan-seared scallops, sautéed in a vegetable succotash and complemented by a citrus carrot🥕 purée – a truly decadent delight deserving of a 9/10.

Equally impressive was the grilled swordfish, accompanied by Israeli couscous, mussels, cherry tomatoes, and a green olive chimichurri. The flavorful couscous and impeccably fresh swordfish earned this dish a solid 9/10. Concluding the entrees, the seafood fry diavolo 🍝, boasting linguine, spicy pomodoro sauce, mussels, and shrimp🦐, though not overly spicy, delivered a tasty experience with well-cooked mussels🦪 and shrimp, earning a respectable 7/10.

Beyond the culinary delights, Pier 6 offers a breathtaking🌊 view of Boston, coupled with an intimate ambiance. This gem in Charlestown deserves a visit for its excellent dishes and overall dining experience.

Food: 8/10 Affordability: 7/10 Ambiance: 8/10
