Well, the Opera House is on Washington Street. Do you know where Tufts-New England Medical Center is? If you start at NEMC, go towards Downtown Boston, you'll run into it on your left. Hmm...It's also near the Swiss Hotel (and the post office in Downtown Boston). I'm sure, though, that if you took a brief walk around, you'll find it without any problems. There's a parking lot right across the street (well, more adjacent to it), if you need parking. The Opera house is T-Accessible (Take the downtown crossing station from the Red or Orange lines). You can also take the Green line to Park street. Whatever floats your boat
Places to eat....well, there's always Legal Seafoods. That's in the theatre district just nearby. Also, P.F. Changs is a good place for an upscale Chinese restaurant. The Rock Bottom is also close (Bennigans too). All those restaurants are in the same local area (near the commons). Cheers, the restaurant, is within walking distance (if you walk through the commons). If you haven't been there, though, don't expect it to look like the bar on the show...only the outside of the restaurant was used for the show. The inside is rather cramped.
I'm drawing a blank cause I only go into Boston during lunch, where I go to this dingy place with questionable sanitary conditions...but the price is dirt cheap and the food isn't too bad

- I haven't gotten sick...yet
