The Boston Sail Loft is the perfect place to have traditional New England seafood without feeling like you're paying NYC prices. The clam chowder is incredible, and I would strongly recommend it as a standalone meal. The true mark of a top notch chowder is the spoon test, and how the soup "runs" when you turn the spoon sideways. Needless to say, this chowder certainly passed the test with flying colors, and the consistency, flavor, and even the look and smell were all perfection. It even had that tiny bit of grit that let you know the clams were fresh out of the shell.
The atmosphere inside the Sail Loft makes you feel like you're right on the water, mainly because you are. The staff is friendly and attentive, and this really feels more like a Cape Cod hangout than a Boston one. I can't wait to go back to try their award winning fish and chips. It's just an excuse to have another cup of this incredible clam chowder.
