Located in the heart of Boston’s historic Faneuil Hall, Kingfish Hall is chef and restaurateur Todd English’s critically acclaimed seafood dining concept. The extensive menu features traditional New England classics, handpicked daily selections of local shellfish, signature ceviches and fresh sushi.

The vast, two-tiered dining room is an homage to all things under-water-dwelling with mosaic tiled, fish-themed walls, and ever changing sea glass colored lighting – even the silverware has scales. In warm weather, the outdoor patio is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine and some exceptionally fresh seafood.
