    Icarus

    Published: Jun 3, 2009 by Jennifer Che

    Icarus, a great iconic restaurant in the South End, has announced that they will be closing their doors after 31 years of service in Boston.

    Typically, entrees here are in the $30 range. However, as a final good-by, they are offering a three course $31 prix fixe from June 1, 2009 to July 1, 2009.

    Bryan and I had our first date here back in September 1995. We ate here before heading out to see Phantom of the Opera in Boston. We had an excellent meal - considering we were college students back then, it was quite a stretch on the budget . . (uhh, on Bryan's budget, I guess). 😉

    We haven't been back since but now that it's closing, we've decided to go this Saturday sort of for old time's sake, and also just to say good-by to the place where we had our first date.

    Of course, I'll post pictures and details of our meal there. 🙂
