Noah's Kitchen leads this shortlist.
Noah's Kitchen sits in Brookline Village with a wood-rich room that leans warm and unfussy — metal teapots on the tables, a modest East-meets-West sparseness that lets the food do the shouting.
Forty-nine seats and no pretense of hiding what they're for: Yunnan Kitchen puts the food at the center of a small South End room and lets everything else fall away.
Myers + Chang is the South End project from Joanne Chang — of Flour Bakery fame — and her husband Christopher Myers, and it has held a genuine place in Boston's casual dining landscape for well over a decade.
