Ostra is fabulous. Some have described it as Boston’s answer to Le Bernadin, which is a ….stretch. But I agree it is very good.

I’m with you. Been to the now-closed Summer Shack location in the Back Bay, which scratched the place off my list.

Just chiming in to say that friends took me for a milestone birthday dinner to Ostra and it was truly exceptional!

Fifthing (at least?) the others here in saying that I don’t find Summer Shack to be worth a trip. I like all of @MaxEntropy 's substitutions and would also throw in Waypoint just outside Harvard Square. The seafood is excellent (we tend to go for the oysters and the seafood pastas, but there is also fish and chips, fish sandwich, etc. for the classics) and there are also a few non-seafood things (pizzas, etc.) should someone prefer that.

Thanks for the reminder about Waypoint! I need to add it to my “summer in the city” list of places to revisit.

Yes! Especially on a nice night when they open the front windows. We like to wander down late on a sunny Sunday afternoon for the $1 oysters.
