Union Oyster House is just a short block from there and hasn't changed much since the 19th century.

Neither particularly elegant nor very pricey, but both are "real Boston."

I guess you good say that these places have "Boston character" because they are two of the oldest restaurants in Boston. Unfortunately neither has good food.

If you want both, Neptune Oyster is a good place to start.
