Chef Michael Schlow’s Must-Try Hot Spots in Back Bay

Chef Michael Schlow’s Tico and Doretta Taverna and Raw Bar are Back Bay’s must-try hot spots. Tico is a vibrant restaurant serving American cuisine with Latin American flair. Come for tacos, tapas, ceviche, Saturday brunch, or margaritas.

Doretta is a Greek restaurant serving the freshest Mediterranean cuisine. Sample seasonal mezzes, gyros, lamb meatballs, spinach pie, and whole roasted fish.

Whether you’re coming for date night, patio drinks and apps, or a corporate reception for 250, both Tico and Doretta will leave you wanting more!

Doretta’s signature Village Salad with Maine tomatoes, imported feta, kalamatas, cucumbers, red onion, and fresh herbs. Monday through Friday, pair this salad with any gyro for a "Lunch on the Fly.”

Doretta seats 140 guests in the main dining room with a central 26-seat bar. Dining with a group? Head to the Kitchen Chef’s Table seating up to 12 or the Private Room seating up to 20.

Doretta’s seasonal outdoor patio overlooks Park Square. It’s the perfect place for a glass of sunny afternoon rosé. Seating up to 60 guests, get here early to claim the couches.

Doretta’s family dinner experience is the best way to sample your way through the menu. Enjoy spreads and warm pita bread, village salad, mezze, family-style entrées and traditionally inspired Greek desserts and ice cream.

Tico is fun and approachable. Come in for a snack, a meal, or a margarita. From the Bar and Lounge to Dining Room and Chef’s Counter, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!

Tico’s cuisine is delicious. Join us every Tuesday for our Taco Tuesday promotions or book a Make Your Own Taco Bar for a large group.

Tico’s cocktail list features a variety of seasonal signature margaritas. If you can’t decide on just one, try a margarita flight instead.

Tico’s offers semi-private dining options for groups of 10 to 250 guests. The portable center room divider turns the restaurant into a true event venue with unlimited options.
