Birthday dinner for 10
My wife is turning 30 in a couple of weeks and we're looking to celebrate with a nice Saturday night dinner for 10-12 people (including one infant). She's a pescatarian so somewhere with some interesting seafood options would be great. However, any really nice place that is not very loud would be great. Budget-wise, we're not too restricted but we'd like to keep under probably $100 per person. Places we've looked into include Hamersley's and Salts. We've procrastinated a bit, however, and their large tables are booked.

My biggest cheer is for the lovely patio (or inside)at Oleana. Very special and unusual Turkish and Mediterranean food; lots of seafood; chef-owned farm for true farm to table menu.
Otherwise, in Cambridge- Evoo or Catalyst.
But Island Creek Oyster Bar would really be perfect for you. Great food and service, esp. for Bdays. Good bar and memorable room too! It's a big space but yet conversation-friendly.
ICOB prob has more positive CH posts than any other Boston restnt. (and yes, I am a fan!) -
Eastern Standard Kitchen? http://www.easternstandardboston.com/
It looks like they have a private room with a table for at least 10.

Keeping you in the same area as the previous suggestions, West Bridge would work. They have a private room in the back that holds around 12 people. Definitely not as quiet and refined as places like Hamersley's or Salts, but I think the food is stronger than any of the places previously mentioned.
