Blue Ribbon Brasserie

An expansive, Boston version of the late-night industry favorite in New York City, this 265-seat restaurant is located directly at the doorstep of Kenmore Square’s Hotel Commonwealth. The brasserie is not only the perfect place to stop in for a burger and beer before a Red Sox night game, but it’s also an ideal spot to wrap up the evening with a nightcap and late-night bites (check out their discounted Late Night Social Hour from 10pm-midnight). The menu fills you up with hearty dishes, such as lamb chops, steak frites, pierogies, foie gras terrine, paella and French onion soup bubbling under a layer of melted gruyère cheese.
