From Citysearch

Area gourmands and guests of the Hotel Commonwealth (many of whom have kids at nearby Boston University) fill an modern, nautically themed dining room and lounge marked by sky-high ceilings, deep hues and an ocean of cozy banquettes. The menu highlights local ingredients and rare, flown-in seafood, all put under delicious treatment. Commence the evening with Island Creek oysters with Szechuan peppercorn viniagrette or other sashimi creations. Flavorful entrees include prosciutto-wrapped cod with eggplant puree, or a lobster roll piled high on a housemade bun. Think again if you think you're leaving without devouring the chocolate-filled doughnuts with dulce de leche ice cream.
