East Coast Grill

Located in Cambridge, I had been wanting to try East Coast Grill for a year but had been too lazy to drive from Boston over the river. The experience was every bit worth it.

Upon entering one immediately feels relaxed in the laid back atmosphere.
My friend and I started with the mussels appetizer which she suggested would be amazing. I have never really been a huge fan of mussels. This dish was one of the best I have had in a while. The mussels were in a garlic sauce and served with a giant piece of bread for soaking up the delicious liquid. These were the cleanest mussels I ever had in my life.

My entree was amazing as well. A Portugese style stew with shrimp, mussels, crab, mussels, and swordfish. The seafood was so fresh.

Service was very friendly and welcoming. 

The drinks were pretty standard but we came for the food.  ECG is famous for having "Hell Night", a few times a month.  This is a tasting of the worlds spiciest pepper.  Many come and many end up crying all the way to the bathroom.  One guy forgot to wash his hands before going so his eyes weren't the only thing that was burning. 

I don't get over to Cambridge that often but next time I do I'll be sure to stop by again.
