The sleek, open dining room of 606 Congress exudes class without being pretentious. Curious foodies venture to the restaurant's Seaport District home to enjoy the fresh local ingredients and diverse flavors that the celebrated Chef Schlow uses in his contemporary interpretations of American classics. The menu features tapas-style portions in six categories of tasting plates--from light to robust--that allow sharing and sampling. Highlights include clam, chorizo and white bean soup with grilled bread; mac and cheese with country ham, peas and black truffles; and steak with Old Bay fries. Outdoor seating, a roomy lounge, and a bar with a view of the kitchen enhance the dining experience.
