According to Universal Hub, the Barracuda Tavern has been looking to open on Bosworth Street (between Washington and Tremont Streets) where Ye Olde Province Tavern--also known as Hank's Tavern--used to be until closing down about 10 years ago. A March 29 posting on the EveryBlock Boston site has indicated that a license has been issued for the restaurant, so it looks like the opening of the Barracuda Tavern is likely to happen.
Bosworth Street is also home to Marliave, a restaurant and bar that first opened in the late 1800s and was renovated and reopened in 2008 after closing for a short time.
[July 9 update: According to the restaurant's Facebook page, the Barracuda Tavern should be opening in the next few weeks, so expect a possible late July/early August opening.]
[July 20 update: According to Thrillist Boston, the Barracuda Tavern is planning on having a soft opening this weekend. Thanks to Grub Street Boston for bringing this to our attention.]
[August 30 update: According to the Barracuda Tavern Facebook page, the restaurant is now open for business, though only for drinks--they still need to get approval from the Health Inspector to serve food.]
[September 2 update: According to the restaurant's Facebook page, the Barracuda Tavern is now fully open, serving food as well as drinks.]
The address for this new seafood restaurant near Downtown Crossing is: Barracuda Tavern, 15 Bosworth Street, Boston, MA, 02108.
