Congrats 2025 Grads!
News
Each year, nearly 200,000 students cross the commencement stage at the 40+ colleges and universities located around the Greater Boston area. That’s a lot of reasons to celebrate… and a reminder to make a dining reservation!
During graduation season, Prudential Center isn’t just the place for shopping – it’s a one-stop destination for all memories and celebrating needs. Cheers to the graduates at one of the Center’s various eateries or find the perfect gift at one of our retail shops.
Below are just a few of our suggestions to celebrate your grad and help usher them into their new era in life!
DEL FRISCO’S
For a premium celebratory steak dinner, Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse provides a distinguished dining experience. With a vast selection of USDA Prime wet and dry-aged steaks, nothing compares to the 32 ounce Prime Tomahawk or a 16 ounce 45 Day Dry-Aged Prime Ribeye. Pair your steak of choice with a classic Blue Cheese Lettuce Wedge, the fan-favorite Lobster Macaroni & Cheese, and one of Del Frisco’s craft cocktails (including some spirit-free options!). End your meal on a sweet note with the mouth-watering Warm Butter Cake, topped with vanilla ice cream, fresh whipped cream, and caramel sauce. Be sure to reserve your table on OpenTable!
EARLS KITCHEN + BAR
Cap the college experience with student-favorite Earls Kitchen + Bar. With a diverse, globally-inspired menu, everyone in the group will find something to love! Reserve a seat and cheers to the graduate with a craft cocktail (including large format options) or glass of champagne. It’s time to celebrate, so you can’t go wrong beginning the meal with the Seafood Tower featuring Oysters, Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail, Ahi Tuna Tataki, Spicy California Roll, and Lobster Tail. From the Earls Classic Burger to Truffle Tortellini and other irresistible options, there’s a main course to fit every craving. When it comes to dessert, it’s hard to decide between Bourbon Pecan Pie and the Key Lime Pie… so why not order both?
EATALY
Everyone knows Eataly for its food counters and cafes that feature regional Italian food with a local twist. But don’t skip on their cooking classes and housewares section, which are great for graduation gifting! Hands-on cooking classes with a plethora of options on how to make various pastas and desserts, is just another (fun) step in setting up your graduate for post-college success. Swing by the housewares and marketplace to help the recipient put those new cooking skills to the test and to stock up their post-dorm-life apartments with cookware, quality ingredients, and cookbooks!
SHINOLA
Shinola is dedicated to creating the highest quality watches. As the saying goes, “if you’re on time, you’re already late.” So help that grad be prepared – and ahead of time – with one of Shinola’s modern offerings! The Detroit-based brand offers over 130 different models of watches that are available in both men’s and women’s styles. From the leather bands and sport styles to Mother of Pearl dials and classic gold options, Shinola makes it easy to find a watch to match your grad’s style.
