    Menu prides itself on great seafood. While you might be tempted to make a meal of the truffled tater tots, it'd mean missing the tender 100 Day Aged Ribeye. Read more

    I had my wife and son here and I have to say the rib eye steak was the best I have ever eaten. My son and I split the steak and swordfish with the hash browns. Oh my god!

    Perfectly prepared American fare. VERY attentive service. Beautiful surroundings reminiscent of an Old Boston club. And on bitter cold winter night, the valet service at the door is a God Send!

    Classic vibe, excellent and non-pretentious service and best steak in Boston period. Dry aged 14oz New York prime is my favorite and the tots are surprisingly lite.

    Devra First recommends: Crab cake, 100-day aged rib eye, Kobe cap steak, Maine lobster, mac and cheese, coconut cake (a towering slice, with moist, fragrant, almost macaroon-like layers) Read more

    Fabulous. Convenient valet parking right in front. Servers are A+. Spectacular food. I especially enjoyed it as my office (Magic 106.7) was right above the restaurant on the 2nd floor in the 90's.

    This is my must go spot every time I visit Boston. My move is always the 100 day aged ribeye & double up on the seafood appetizers. Why? Because these guys do a great job on both.

    The aged ribeye is delightful and the coconut cake is to die for! Great service, warm atmosphere and a beautiful decor that will take you back in time. 10/10, would recommend!

    Fantastic steaks. Best servers in Boston. There is a reason this place keeps making the Best of Boston lists. Try the 100 day aged prime ribeye. The potato tots are awesome too.
  • Revere Hotel Boston Common
    This Boston steak and seafood experience is a five minute walk from the Revere Hotel Boston Common. Dark woods, white table linen and brass accents set the tone for an excellent dining experience.

    Excellent service, excellent food. Oysters, New England clam chowder, 100-day aged ribeye, English peas ... all were liked by our crowd. 2nd time here and will be back.

    Broad wine list, but too expensive. Best oysters I've ever had! The 100 days dry aged ribeye is a must in this restaurant!

    Ambience was fantastic! Lots of mahogany, snooty suits and uniqueness. However, while the food was great, service was below par for an expensive steakhouse. Try the lamb chops or grass-fed filet.

    Conventional wisdom suggests avoiding chicken dishes at steakhouses, but the Brick Pressed Chicken here is fantastic. The Valrhona Chocolate Layer Cake is also obscenely delicious.

    Extensive and eclectic wine list with some good value if you search! Alaskan Crab to die for and beautifully caramelised seared steaks.

    Get any steak. I got the tuna and not only it was small but it wasn't as impressive as the meat. Clam chowder was great.

    Single greatest coconut cake I’ve ever tasted. Save some to take home, it’s even more delicious the next day!

    The Kobe beef is probably the best steak i ever had. Forget the ribeye and try the Kobe beef! although quiet expensive it is definetely worth the price (62$)...

    Steak lovers extol the rib-eye for the deep marbling and for the cap (or deckle), a lobe of muscle so succulent that it often gets saved for the last bites. Read more

    I believe the cocktails here to be lethal. Get a steak - medium rare - and the truffle tots. Oh, and put your fancy pants on.

    Like most steakhouses, Grill 23 is full of mahogany, martinis, and expensive suits. Unlike at most steakhouses, the food is actually worth the ridiculous prices. Read more
