Avra Estiatorio is an elegant and sophisticated Greek dining destination in Boston’s Back Bay within a new modern high-rise building. With 250 seats on the second floor of 400 Newbury Street, the restaurant brings the vibrant energy of the Aegean to the city. The design, crafted by the Rockwell Group, features a bright, airy atmosphere characterized by crystallized salt stone walls, sculptural olive trees, and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer expansive views of the city.

The culinary experience centers on “unadulterated” Greek cuisine, where pristine ingredients and simple preparations are the focus. A signature element is the expansive ice display, where guests can hand-select fresh seafood flown in daily from the Mediterranean. The menu features a variety of rare fish like Fagri and Lithrini, alongside popular staples such as the paper-thin Avra Chips and Chilean Seabass Souvlaki.

Seafood Market: A signature ice display allows for custom selection of daily-caught Mediterranean fish prepared to your preference.

Aegean Design: The interior features white-washed aesthetics, authentic Greek amphoras, and an indoor-outdoor terrace for alfresco dining.
