Proprietors Sue and Joe LaSpada opened Bridgeman's in 2001 and added a stylish splash to Nantasket Beach with this casually chic up-and-comer that's a great find according to the Zagat Survey of Boston Restaurants 2010. Now Bridgeman's has found a home in Hull and looks to build a tradition of being the area's choice for exceptional dining.

Accolades

Zagat Review 2010-2011 (Excellent Rating)
Head to Hull to "dine by the sea" at this "sophisticated yet unpretentious gem" where the service is "attentive" and the reasonably priced Northern Italian cuisine features "out-of-site seafood" and "awesome specials"; a "strong along the ocean" makes for a soothing ending to a "delicious" experience.

Also received top ranking in Zagat's 2010-2011 in the following categories: Top Food - Italian Northern Cuisine, Top Rooms, Views and Waterside.

Yankee Magazine "Best of New England" 2010
Best Brodetto BRIDGEMAN'S, Hull Brodetto was originally a stew made from whatever catch Italian fishermen couldn't sell. Next to such simple fare, the luscious brodetto served here--full of mussels, clams, shrimp, and fish in a fragrant tomato sauce over squid-ink pasta--is a cathedral beside a country chapel. It's a rustic and hearty seafood lover's dream dish. 145 Nantasket Ave. 781-925-6336;

The Boston Globe Magazine "40 Knockout Dishes"
Fried Dough with Bourbon Glazed Peaches. $8.50.
Upgrading fried dough could be as simple as giving the fairground favorite a plate to sit on. But leave it to a tony Nantasket eatery to recognie the innate dignity of the addiictive food-stuff and do it justice with a gleaming syrupy sauce.
