Silvertone Bar & Grill

Great place for a drink with a date, a few friends, or even a small party. Nice atmosphere, something a little different than most places in the city. Drinks are reasonably priced and the food is really good. Definitely try Silvertone's own raspberry-infused vodka... it's delicious but pretty deadly.

Silvertone is a basement bar and restaurant in the heart of downtown Boston. Just up from Downtown Crossing, you'd miss it if you were walking quickly up Bromfield.

Something about descending down into the bar gives it a sort of speakeasy, loungy feel, and the retro vibe makes for great atmosphere. It's also kind of cool to be able to see the place from above as you go in. Because it's a basement there are no windows but it doesn't feel cramped. It's well lit and the smoking ban helps quite a bit.

The calamari appetizer is particularly good, and so is the grilled cheese, and the mac and cheese. It gets pretty crowded pretty quick but it's easy to chill there.
