Shore Leave
The people behind Bar Mezzana, which is across the street, have created a Tiki destination for the South End. The menu of chef Colin Lynch includes a variety of Pacific Rim delicacies, such as desserts with Asian and Californian influences. The Tiki cocktail menu includes traditional drinks like the Mai Tai and Zombie with inventive, multi-ingredient combinations. The inside is intended to mimic a tropical sanctuary, replete with a long bar with bamboo accents and design cues from the jungle.
You'll need to move quickly to secure a reservation for this highly sought-after omakase experience because there are only two seatings per night, published one month in advance. Did we mention that there are just nine seats at the tasting counter? The location of No Relation is hidden behind Chef Colin Lynch's tiki bar and restaurant Shore Leave. Once you sign in, the host will take you there as soon as your scheduled reservation time of 6 p.m. or 8:30 p.m. arrives. With the option to repeat as many of your favorites as you like at the conclusion of your dinner, come hungry and ready to feast upon the 14 meals that will be skilfully prepared in front of you. You won't regret adding the sake pairing!
