Aragosta Bar & Bistro at Battery Wharf

Battery Wharf recently announced the opening of Aragosta, the Boston Waterfront’s newest restaurant dubbed “where Italian meets New England”.

Chef David Daniels was said to have been lured back to Boston from the award-winning Topper’s at The Wauwinet on Nantucket to create and oversee the dining experiences at Aragosta.

Drawing on the Italian cooking of his childhood, the contemporary flavors of the Mediterranean and the fresh products of local New England Farms, Chef Daniels is putting a new twist on traditional pastas, prime meats and just-caught seafood.

With the addition of Aragosta, the Battery Wharf Condos take another step towards creating the quintessential waterfront living experience in downtown Boston.

The West Broadway Neighborhood Association recently reported that the Franklin Cafe’s request to acquire an alcohol license with a 2 am closing hour was approved.
