It was an admittedly hard decision to name Neptune Oyster as my pick for North End, since the neighborhood is home to a vibrant Italian community with many great Italian restaurants. But Neptune Oyster -- perhaps the best seafood place in Boston -- is a must for anyone visiting Boston. There are numerous fresh oysters to choose from, but Neptune makes the best (and most expensive) lobster roll in town. Order it Connecticut-style with hot drawn butter. If you still have room, don’t miss their weekly specials like shrimp and grits.
