Eater Boston is reporting (via The Boston Globe) that George Mendes is planning to open Amar at Raffles, a luxury condo and hotel development in the Back Bay, with the Globe saying that it will be a Portuguese dining spot that is located on the 17th floor of the Trinity Place complex. Mendes was behind the now-closed Aldea, a Michelin-starred Manhattan restaurant with Portuguese and Spanish influences that closed in 2020 after more than 10 years in operation.
If all goes as planned, Amar will open sometime this summer.
