Society on High Is Opening in Boston's Financial District

The person behind two upscale restaurants in Boston's Leather District is going to be opening a third spot nearby, and this one will have what few others (if any) have in the city's Financial District--free parking.

The Zagat blog is reporting that Ian Just of Sorriso and Les Zygomates--both of which are on South Street--will open Society on High, with the dining spot possibly opening as early as November. The post mentions that the High Street eatery will focus on regional cuisine, with locally-sourced ingredients used to make the dishes. Society on High will have seating for 140 inside along with 60 additional seats in an outdoor plaza and bar area, and in a section of the city where parking is at a premium, the restaurant will also offer parking at no charge.

[May 31, 2013 update: Eater Boston mentions that Society on High is planning to have its grand opening on June 17.]

[June 13, 2013 update: Based on posts on their Facebook and Twitter pages, Society on High is currently undergoing a soft opening.]

The address for this new dining spot in the Financial District is: Society on High, 99 High Street, Boston, MA, 02110. Its facebook page can be found at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Society-on-High/118349921659221?id=118349921659221

Thanks to Grub Street Boston for bringing this to our attention.
