After much anticipation, the High Street Grill has opened its doors inside the historic East Mill in North Andover.
The people behind this Southern-influenced upscale restaurant are well-known in the Boston-area restaurant scene. Kristi Morris used to be the general manager of the East Coast Grill in the Inman Square section of Cambridge, and Chris Schlesinger is the owner of the same establishment. The executive chef is also a familiar name in culinary circles--John Porreca, who used to work at Sasso on Huntington Avenue in Boston.
Items on the menu at the High Street Grill include BBQ spit-roasted chicken, grilled mahi mahi, cherrystone clam linguini, Kansas City pork spareribs, and Texas-Style beef brisket.
The address for the High Street Grill is: High Street Grill, 25 High Street, North Andover, MA, 01845. Phone: (978) 682-6363
[UPDATE: According to a note on the restaurant's website from November, 2009, the High Street Grill has closed.]
