Announcing the 2024 Boston-area restaurant awards - The Boston Globe These are the restaurants, chefs, dishes, and ideas that shaped the dining scene this year.

It was a "luxe rooms, plenty of vibes, handmade pasta, hand-pulled noodles, birria tacos, Japanese kaiseki, bananas and espresso martinis had a baby" kind of year. (Behind a paywall, but I’m happy to answer Boston-area food questions whether or not you subscribe.)
