Why Is Seamark a Top Choice for Christmas Dinner in Boston?

A Christmas dinner in Boston​ is best experienced along the coast in Boston’s iconic harbor. Thriving with tradition and rooted in the excellence of James Beard Award-Winning Chef Michael Schlow, Seamark is proud to offer an exceptional dining experience that pays homage to the culturally unique and rich history here.

Locals and visitors throughout the coast choose Seamark to host their Christmas or New Year’s dinner because the delicate flavors of the coast are best experienced in an environment that intentionally amplifies the spirit of a quality seafood dinner.

When you plan your dinner reservation during the holidays, you can look forward to a dinner menu complete with a raw bar, appetizers, and New England classics, like a New England lobster bake, fried calamari, and many more flavors. 

Enjoy Harbor and Oyster Hours at Seamark

If you’re looking to celebrate an afternoon or evening on the dock, come during our Oyster Hour or Harbor Hour specials. 

Oyster Hour runs every Monday to Thursday starting at 5:00 p.m. in both our bar and lounge space, and allows you to enjoy a fresh and rotating selection of shucked oysters. Ask our staff for their insight into signature cocktails and fine wines to pair your plate of oysters with.

You can also stop in during Harbor Hour, which runs Monday through Friday from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. Harbor Hour features a three-course meal, complete with signature dishes that allow you to experience the decadent flavors of the coast.
