Mooncusser Fish House
The second floor restaurant of this multi-story seafood business, where a variety of locally procured fish is expertly presented, is the main attraction. (Try the five-course "taste of local fishes" meal for the full experience.) Customers seeking a lighter meal can stop by the Moon Bar, while those in a hurry can grab something to go at Cusser's, a street-level takeaway restaurant that specializes in seafood and roast beef. Or go to the Cusser's to hear their best songs in a lively, food-focused setting.
Although Mooncusser may have started out as a fish home, it has since evolved into much more. This restaurant has undergone a culinary overhaul under the guidance of Chef Carl Dooley, with a new emphasis on providing four-course tasting menus. Each time they visit, visitors can always experience something new thanks to the monthly changes in the prix fixe menu, which also comes with optional wine pairings. Yes, seafood still has a significant place on this menu, but now fish dishes, like barbecued unagi or potato gnocchi with salt cod, share the spotlight with other, internationally influenced dishes, including deer with Hungarian dumplings and Sichuan pig sausage consomme.
People can rest assured that the view from the dining room, which is perched above Stuart Street, is just as delectable as the parade of culinary treasures pouring out of the kitchen. Customers seeking a lighter meal can stop by the Moon Bar, while those in a hurry can grab something to go at Cusser's, a street-level takeaway restaurant that specializes in seafood and roast beef. (Alternatively, visit the Cusser's at Time Out Market Boston to sample the best dishes from the later restaurant in a lively, food-centric setting.)
