Frommer's Review
A stone's throw from Boston Harbor, Sel de la Terre is a peaceful slice of southern France. Executive chef Geoff Gardner (a partner with L'Espalier's Frank McClelland) uses fresh local ingredients in his subtly flavorful food: scallops handled so gently that they're still sweet, a grilled pork chop on a pile of fluffy couscous, luscious salmon with French lentils and caramelized cauliflower. Banquettes, earth tones, and professional service attract a go-go business-lunch crowd (dinner is calmer). The unusual pricing structure -- the same amount for almost every dish -- feels like a deal when you're tucking into a generous portion of braised short ribs, less of a bargain if you're eating pasta. Whatever you order, accompany it with a side of sublime pommes frites (french fries). The boulangerie (bakery) at the entrance sells out-of-this-world breads, salads, and pastries, and there's seasonal outdoor seating.
