Founded by husband and wife team Marc Orfaly and Kerri Foley, and nestled between Boston’s Theatre District and Bay Village, Pigalle is a mom-and-pop restaurant of the highest quality. Orfaly’s French-influenced menu combines traditional Parisian bistro fare with pan-Asian flavors that include the Middle East. Pigalle’s intimate dining room is perfect for theatergoers looking for something special or a couple longing for that romantic night out. Kind of a weird location, small little side street with nothing else really " cute" near it, however the restaurant itself was really charming! Come here in spring/summer for $1 oysters! They will validate your parking if you park next door at Radisson Hotel.

Chef Charles Draghi brings us Erbaluce, a new Italian eatery tucked away in Bay Village, named for an Italian grape. Using only the freshest ingredients and local herbs, this chef aims to turn out inventive dishes that are light, with sauces built from vegetables rather than butter or cream, and pairing them with the Italian wine list. The food is said to be unlike that found at any other Italian eatery in Boston, and is influenced by the Piedmonte region of Italy, where the chef's family traces its roots. Main dishes are moderately priced, and a bar menu is available. Reserve by phone or email at: reservations@erbaluce-boston.com.
