The stop is two blocks away though it is best to have your own car for getting around Restaurants The Blue Ox in Lynn has great steaks, oysters, French fries, fish, maple syrup butter and great bread, and vegetarian dishes. There is also Rosetti's Restaurant in Lynn and The Antique Table for really good Italian food. My favorite restaurant is in Salem 7 miles away. They have amazing vegan food and I am not a vegetarian or vegan. My favorite is the Swami with extra sesame ginger sauce. On the way to Salem is a terrific sea food restaurant Dube's that has a fried clam plate to die for and I don't generally like fried seafood. They make their own onion rings but a small order is enough for three people. They change their frying oil thee times a day and they have separate oil for each item. Their shrimp and lobster casserole is one of my favorites. They do not do desserts. Closer then to Salem center on the back road is Pizza World for the best meatlovers pizza. I have it with light cheese and I eat it on my way home. I can't wait and hot it is best. The tides in Nahant is decent and I like their pizza and fried oysters. Get the dinner fried oysters. Not m much more $ but three times the oysters plus a salad. For gathering Alfredo's in Lynn delivers and they do trays of food, Italian of course. He also caters. Champions BBQ team are good for parties. They do lobster bakes and BBQ's 978-threethreefive-6113 (Kevin) and Pho Minh Ky 781-forfor seven-0656 is a very good Vietnamese restaurant in Lynn.
