We went to Gourmeli's for dinner, and chose the seafood buffet which was under $25. It's a great location-- right inside, in the walkway between the Copley and the Prudential malls- near Tiffany's. It is great indoors people-watching and quieter than you would think, since it's set back a little from the traffic.
The seafood buffet was great-- steamed mussels, clams, and smoked fish, including salmon as well as camembert and other good cheeses. Cocktail shrimp and scallops, as well as many many varieties of fish cooked in different ways, and lobster ravioli, as well as a full selection of salads, side dishes, and the dessert was exquisite. The service was excellent. The crowd was mixed-- lots of elderly people in large groups as well as young professional couples. I enjoyed it.
