Best of Boston

2004 Best Romantic Restaurant, North

Glory

Sometimes all it takes to stir up emotion is a little hole-in-the-wall restaurant with drippy candles and a few two-tops. Other times the road to love is paved with linen tablecloths and crystal goblets. Safe middle ground can be found at Glory, where live jazz, glowing yellow walls, and candles create a comfortable haven for first dates, anniversaries, and everything in between. If all that doesn’t get you in the mood, the grilled stuffed veal chop, pan-seared trout, and warm chocolate cake by chef Corinna Mozo (formerly of Truc) surely will.
