The Beacon is a restaurant located at the top of the Prudential tower, offering stunning panoramic views of the greater Boston area. The restaurant has a celebratory atmosphere, especially on weekends, making it a great place for special occasions. The service is very good, with professional and friendly staff.
The menu offers a variety of dishes, including vegetarian options such as salad and avocado bread. However, the food options are limited and some dishes, such as the deep-fried goat cheese and the soft, tasty but greasy beef, received mixed reviews. The cocktails were described as good but too sweet. Prices are on the higher end, with a full meal costing around $80 per person, in addition to $25 for access to the restaurant floor. Parking in the Prudential garage can also be quite expensive.
Despite the high prices, the main attraction of The Beacon is the special location, with its breathtaking views and celebratory atmosphere. The restaurant can be accessed through a package ticket that includes pre-set meals or through a-la-carte ordering with separate observation deck tickets. Overall, The Beacon offers a great experience with exceptional ambiance and service, and is highly recommended for special occasions.
