Allston Restaurants

Allston can be a haven for all-night joints and college sports bars, but this Boston neighborhood is also a great place to savor an array of great dining options. In fact, Boston's best Asian food can be found in the area, with Chinese, Japanese, Thai and Vietnamese choices, among others. The Korean barbecue is not to be missed, and those looking for bigger portions can find restaurants serving feast-sized plates of dumpling and pupu platters. Allston has its fair share of New American dining as well. Hip bar/restaurants and food trucks offer their unique takes on lobster and clam chowder, and there's a wealth of vegetarian opportunities tucked away for the non-carnivorous set.
