Late president John F. Kennedy hails from Massachusetts and frequented a number of Boston restaurants. One of his top picks was a restaurant called the Union Oyster House.

You can still dine at the Union Oyster House, and they even have a designated table for JFK called the Kennedy Booth, a spot dedicated to him after his death.

Union Oyster House was erected prior to the American Revolution and started serving oysters and seafood in 1826. Nearly 200 years later, there is still a long wait at dinner hour.

Union Oyster House has two floors, with the upstairs noticeably cozier than the more rambunctious first floor and housing the Kennedy Booth, which you can reserve.

Today, the restaurant serves up the same high-quality seafood dishes the Kennedy family once enjoyed. Their fish chowder and New England clam chowder are particular standouts.
