Where Celtics and Bruins Players Eat in the North End
Ever wonder where the pros go to carbo-load?
Kelly Olynyk
Celtics Center/Power Forward
“I get something that’s not on the menu at Aria: a seafood platter. It has lobster, grilled calamari, grilled shrimp, some scallops, and risotto, but I get double vegetable.”
Zdeno Chára
Bruins Captain/Defenseman
“We usually enjoy going to places that are smaller and not as busy, like Pomodoro, La Summa, Pagliuca’s, and Monica’s.”
Walter McCarty
Former Celtics Player; Current Celtics Assistant Coach
“Lately, I go to Stanza Bar and have a Romeo y Julieta cigar. As a player, I wouldn’t really go out for cocktails or a drink, but now that I’m a coach, I enjoy it.”
Torey Krug
Bruins Defenseman
“My wife and I usually stick around the North End. If I don’t want to go out to eat, she’ll go grab pasta from Bricco Salumeria and Pasta Shop and make it at home.”
Cedric Maxwell
Former Celtics Forward; Current Celtics Radio Announcer
“All the players went to Scotch ’n Sirloin [now closed]. Larry Bird loved the steaks, Robert Parish loved the ribs, and I loved the chicken.”
