THE FEDERALIST
Boston

Set inside the impressive
Fifteen Beacon and with its impressive chandeliers and mahogany paneling contrasting with the white linen and crystal, the setting of The Federalist displays its objective: to be an elegant culinary powerhouse with the price tags to match. It often succeeds. Though the departure of chef David Daniels has resulted in a somewhat less adventurous menu, boldness still factors in: think lobster-mascarpone macaroni, roast duck with brown-butter spätzle and lemon meringue tart with three-citrus syrup. The wine list is one of Boston's most voluminous; the staff among its most polished and discreet. And the bill, we're afraid, will be one of the highest you're likely to see around here.
