In Kaia, one of the latest feeding of the South End. | Justin Kelleher/Eater Boston
There is no lack of good drinking and eating opportunities in the south. With greasy spoon breakfast, multi-course sushi omakase and some of the best Greek food in the city, guests can find a bit of everything in the southern end. Start with one of these 16 places for those who only have a little time to explore the neighborhood. And then come back and explore something. Or follow the recommendations of Jazz Institution Wallys Cafe General Manager Frank Poindexter and move into these top positions in one day. – With additional reporting by Matt Yan.
What has changed in this update: We said goodbye to a few standbies such as Greystone and Franklin Cafe (for now) and refreshed the list of a few new favorites, including Greek Stunner Kaia and funny, modern Portuguese spot Baleia.
