The food was absolutely outstanding--every steak was cooked perfectly and everything we ordered was delicious. What truly made the evening special, though, was our waiter, Eugenio. His service was exceptional: friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to making sure we had a great experience. He elevated an already fantastic meal into a memorable dining experience. We'll definitely be back and will ask for Eugenio again! read more

We chose Abe & Louie's because it is our favorite steak house in Boston. Saturday's experience didn't disappoint. The manager Jimmy is a wonderful host. He came by and greeted us and was genuinely happy to see us again. Our server Chris is the reason we keep returning. He is like an old friend with whom we have developed a great relationship. He knows our preferences, anticipates our needs and fulfills every request with professionalism and efficiency. Johnnie the runner, is terrific and friendly. takes care of all the little things to help ensure our meal is top-notch. The food and wine is always exceptional and consistent. I recommend the dry-aged sirloin. The wine list is also second to none. The ambiance is what we enjoy at Abe & Louie's. read more

When going to a fine dining restaurant I would expect it to be more well rounded. They were not accommodating to my party, as we had someone that could not sit in a booth, and when we asked for another table ( in a pretty empty restaurant I may add) our host's response was if you can eat quickly and leave by 7:15 you can sit there. Wow... Just shocking. The Filet Mignon was fine. As was the Lamb chops, it had this breaded crust and a glaze that complemented it nicely. The people really took me off guard... in the women's restroom there were a couple staff members congregated being loud and obnoxious, which did not add to the experience. read more

3.5 Stars - I am really teetering between 3 and 4. This is a high end steakhouse located near Newbury Street in Boston. We had a business dinner here. I'm also biased because I am not the biggest steak fan. The price point is very high, obviously. The interior is gorgeous and classy. We ordered a ton of drinks, apps, and entrees. The house bread and butter in the beginning is so good! Apps: -Oysters ($4 each) -Shrimp Cocktail (GIANT shrimps!) - $28 - Truffle Tuna Tartare - $28 -Lobster Dumplings - $27 We split the wagyu strip ($115). It was fine. The sides were all good though - SUPER rich and huge portions. I'm too lazy to list them all but the standout was the crispy hash browns. The Millionaire potato was good too but not worth the price IMO ($89 for a potato with creme fraiche and caviar). My entree, the special Surf & Turf Salad ($48) was honestly really gross, the lobster was mealy and inedible - spoiled. Luckily we ordered enough things so I didn't need to eat it but if I had ordered just that, I would have been disappointed. If this wasn't so bad this place would have been 4 stars. The best part were the desserts they brought at the end with copious amounts of vanilla bean ice cream. I'd come here just for those desserts - omg, don't skip them! The Bread Pudding and Key Lime Pie are both insane. Again, we really enjoyed our experience but if I had to pay my own money I definitely feel like it's not that worth it (hence the 3 stars). The staff are super classy and really make you feel like you are special. read more

A really cool place that gets packed on weekends. The ambiance is welcoming but the food, specially the ribeye did it for me. So yummy. Then there is the staff at the bar. I will call out that Michele really made the night so special. I was there with my GF and when she needed some help, Michele went beyond the scope of her work. That is what made me realize this is a special place. We will definitely return (and ask for Michelle. Owners and managers, if you see this review, please ask me for details on how Michelle cared for us. More than any other staff I have ever encountered) read more

Okay I've been hearing that this is one of if not the best steak house in Boston. So when I went in a did have high expectations. The service is good, friendly, but nothing more. The drinks were basic and they used crushed ice which is a huge turnoff. Of course I ordered the steak and my only comment is that they do an amazing job at cooking the steak, seasoning wise it's lacking. Ambiance is that of what you'd expect of an older classic steak house. Would I go back? Possibly, but there are many other steak houses I need to try first. read more

This was one of me and my boyfriend's little yearly splurges at a steakhouse. Since it was a splurge, we ordered quite a bit and still ended up with plenty of leftovers. My boyfriend ordered the potato leek soup and the salmon. He thought the salmon was just average and said he'd probably try something else if we went back. He enjoyed a zero proof lavender drink. I ordered the French onion soup and the pan-roasted chicken, and both were impressive. I'm not usually someone who finishes an entire bowl of soup, but once it cooled down, I ate every last bite. The cheese and flavor were amazing. The chicken came with a really tasty sauce and the best crispy potatoes. I had to keep my boyfriend from stealing them. I wasn't sure what to drink and didn't see sangria on the menu but the waiter said they could make one and it was delicious. Even though our stomachs were full, we ordered the cheesecake to go, and it was hands down the freshest, creamiest cheesecake I've ever had, topped with fresh berries. The waiter was nice, but not very personable, which was a little disappointing since it wasn't very busy. I would expect a bit more personality from a higher-end restaurant like this. read more

My second Dine Out Boston 2026 Winter visit: Abe & Louie's, named "Best Neighborhood Restaurant, Back Bay" in "Best of Boston 2025". Founded in 1965. Table Bread: I especially loved the cranberry and walnut bread, which was on the plate. The delicate sweetness of the dried cranberries was deeply infused into the bread, while the walnuts provided a nutty aroma and crunchy texture. The butter was not too salty, offering a smooth texture and rich milky flavor, perfectly complementing the bread's sweetness. The rustic bread was equally excellent, with a firm crust and a soft interior; its rustic texture was quite comforting. Mushroom Soup: Thick and creamy, smooth and delicate in texture. The umami and earthy aroma of the mushrooms and the creaminess of the butter were mellow, soothing, gentle and rich. The saltiness was just right, with a subtle hint of sherry in the aftertaste, understated yet delightful. The black pepper ground on the table removed any fishy smell, added aroma, and cut through the richness. The brioche, after being toasted and soaked, became crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, adding an interesting texture. The chives were barely noticeable, which suited my personal taste. However, the portion was a bit too much, and it became somewhat monotonous towards the end. It would have been better if it was halved and supplemented with another appetizer lol. Flatiron Steak: A near-perfect steak, with a perfectly pink cross-section indicating medium. The meat was tender and juicy. The Chimichurri sauce, originating from Argentina, is made with parsley, cilantro, garlic, pepper flake, olive oil, and lemon juice, according to the waiter. The initial taste was surprisingly comforting, reminiscent of a combination of Cantonese ginger-spring onion sauce, and Szechuan chili oil. The lemon's acidity and freshness then emerged, somewhat alleviating the richness. However, it still felt a bit greasy towards the end, considering the sauce's base is a lethal amount of olive oil. The service was attentive, and the pace was comfortable, allowing me to fully enjoy the cuisine. read more

Abe & Louie's was bustling during the weekend and we were lucky to snag a reservation a week prior. The restaurant is vast and the interior is refined with dazzling chandeliers. Service was impeccable and we were able to get our food in a timely matter. Beef tartare (5/5)- the beef was fresh and the sauce evenly mended everything together. It was the perfect balance on meaty, creamy and slightly acidic. Creamed spinach (4/5)- spinach was cooked perfectly and was seasoned well. Bone in ribeye (4/5)- I ordered it medium well and it was exactly as I ordered it. The ribeye itself was beefy and delicious but definitely not the best I've had. Definitely the best I've had in Boston though. Overall great spot for date night or to celebrate any occasion. read more

My wife and I took our daughter during Parents' weekend. We had an early reservation before the hockey game that evening. We were seated promptly in the main dining room. We had a large and spacious booth and table. One waitstaff member came over and brought us water, bread, and butter. Our actual server came over, introduced themselves, and we ordered drinks and appetizers to start. My gin martini was made exactly as I asked, 3:1 with a couple of dashes of orange bitters. My wife's old-fashioned was perfect. We started with Oysters Rockefeller and the tuna tartare. The oysters were fabulous. The tuna tartare was also very good, but we were not a fan of the roe on top. We split a Caesar salad before ordering entrees. My wife and daughter split the 12-ounce fillet. I, in true Yelp style, ordered the 3-pound baked stuffed lobster. This is actually one of my favorite meals, and one that I don't have very often. It was served in a "lazy man" style, where the meat from the claws was out and part of the scallop and crab stuffing. All you do is eat!! Our sides were creamed spinach and hash browns. We summarized that it was one of the best meals we have had. The filet was prepared to order, perfectly medium rare, and very flavorful. The sides were excellent. The hash browns that our server recommended were unbelievable. Needless to say, my lobster was FABULOUS and worth the cost of admission. My daughter wanted to try the chocolate cake and the chantilly cream for dessert. Most of it was taken to go...LOL. All in all, this checked all of the boxes - atmosphere, hospitality, GREAT service, cocktails, and food quality. We will come back for certain. read more

I come here every time I visit Boston. And every time they are always a meal to remember. The staff is amazing. Love all the servers and bartenders. Even our bussers have always been the most kind and always so attentive. I love a classic steakhouse and this restaurant is exactly that. Musts for me every time I come are the clam chowder, the hash browns and anything off the dessert menu read more

My friend and I visited here in March 2024 for lunch and the initial intention was to order items from the restaurant week menu, but for some reason we weren't able to do so. We ended up ordering from the regular lunch and brunch menus, and our experience at the restaurant was still very good. The free bread with butter was very tasty, especially the type with darker colors, which I believe was rye bread. We ordered two types of cocktails, one called Poppin' Bottles and one called My Cherry Amour, and both of them had fruity flavors. They were mixed very well and my friend and I enjoyed the start of our experience very much as a result of the bread and drinks. I ordered the shaved beef hash and I thought the portion size relative to the price was very worth it because I was given a good amount of beef, potatoes, poached eggs, and muffin bread, all of which were filling enough for me to become full after the dish. My friend ordered the lobster club and in general had positive feedback about it without a reaction indicating that it was spectacular. Both the sandwiches and the tuna tartare were on the pricier end. Finally we had the vanilla crème brûlée, and since I cook this dessert at home, I thought it was okay because the vanilla flavor was only minimally infused into the mixture. Regardless, it was a good experience and I felt honored that I had the chance to visit a fancy restaurant like this in Boston. I am aware that the establishment has won some type of steakhouse award in Massachusetts from 2015 to 2017, so I would fully expect visitors to get steak here. read more

When my oldest daughter attended college in Boston, we dined here every time we visited her. It was her favorite restaurant. She's since graduated and now her sister just started college in Boston. During college move-in weekend, we came here in keeping with our tradition. This time however, the food was disappointing. My daughter (the current college student) ordered the filet mignon, cooked medium. When I noticed she only ate half of her steak, she told me it tasted dry. One look at her steak and I can see it was overcooked. It looked ashen gray! My husband attempted to try it and he said it was very very dry. How disappointing for the start of her college journey.... read more

See previous reviews from four years ago. We've been here multiple times since. But have decided to update the review after the recent visit. On the evening of August 15, 2025, my party and I dined at Abe & Louie's and received rushed and dismissive service from Janice H. We were the only non-white guests in the restaurant that evening and could not help but notice a stark difference in how we were treated compared to nearby tables. Requests were forgotten. Courses were rushed. And the tone was condescending. We are regulars--not first-time diners, not tourists, and definitely should not be treated like minorities not belonging here. -- Prior Reviews -- Tulsa H. | Elite '25 62 Seafood reviews over 4 years ago & 10 Check-Ins The food was amazing. We were on the second floor dining--Saturday's, 3/13/2021. We just sat there and asked for Patrick's recommendations. Followed most of his suggestions, and bam. They were all great.

I was visiting Boston with my partner and his parents and I was very excited to celebrate my birthday at Abe & Louie's. Since it was Memorial weekend, a lot of our reservations had to be made in advance. I even went as far as not celebrating on my actual birthday so that I could celebrate here. Our server Chris was amazing from start to finish. He was funny, polite and so nice. He told me Happy Birthday a few times throughout our meal which I found so sweet. He really made our dinner memorable. I would come back for dinner just for him! The cocktails and food were amazing as well. I lowered my rating because of a different server. He jumped in to "help" Chris by taking our dinner order. As soon as we finished telling him our order he rudely blurted "That's it?" He looked as if we had just insulted his mother. We awkwardly asked if it was too little. He responded to us like we were children. We explained to him that we had a large breakfast and lunch, trying all the good food in Boston and that we may order more if necessary. We just didn't want to over order and have leftovers that we would have to throw away since we were leaving the next morning. He still stood there waiting and said we should at least order another appetizer or side. At this point, my mood shifted and I stopped myself from further explaining that my partner's tiny mom is a diabetic/light eater and his dad's appetite has decreased into his senior years. Why do I have to explain that to him? He eventually said that we dont have to. Wtf? Why even waste our time and ruin our mood. What if one day he has a family come in for dinner that may have been saving up to celebrate such an occasion? His attitude totally shifted the entire course of dinner. Mind you my boyfriend even persuaded his parents to order a cocktail and wine, instead of their usual hot water and lemon because we are aware that we are at a nice restaurant. We ordered a cocktail/wine each, oyster rockefeller, bone in ribeye (22oz), rack of lamb, mashed potatoes, creamed spinach and green beans. That's almost a $400 dinner with tip! It was the perfect amount of food. There was even a bit leftover... read more

Came here mainly because we wanted some solid seafood, but still wanted one juicy steak too. Abe & Louie's came through on both. First off, our server Sahin was one cool braddah. Soon as he found out we came all the way from Hawaii, he made us feel right at home. Real good energy, super welcoming, and took care of us the whole night. The adults started with a couple Manhattans, and da buggahs had mana . Exactly how a Manhattan supposed to be. For appetizers, we went with the full Abe's Seafood Tower and the Caesar salad. I highly recommend both. My daughter and son went all in, and the homemade croutons made that Caesar salad pop. We liked the oysters so much, we ended up ordering another dozen. Sahin told us the Duxbury oysters (I think that's the ones we had) are local to the Boston region and are farmed in the upper water column above the oyster bed, which keeps them in the current and gives them that clean, briny taste. Mean, supah ono! For the main, we shared the 22 oz bone in ribeye and lobster tail. Steak was cooked proper, juicy, flavorful, just how it should be. Sahin even offered to have the steak sliced up for us, which was a nice touch. For sides, we had the au gratin potatoes and Brussels sprouts. Both were super tasty, and the Brussels sprouts had that perfect char. Ended the meal with da cookie dessert which had homemade whipped cream. Overall, real good experience. Great food, great drinks, and service that made us feel comfortable from the jump. If you staying in Boston and like seafood and steak, this spot is worth checking out. Just note, it's a typical Boston setting, everybody talk loud haha. Mahalo plenty, Sahin. It was a pleasure. I give dis place, 2 shakas and an auriiite! read more

Year 5 for us for a birthday celebration! Food is always on point. Steaks are the best (pro tip: wait to eat your steak for a few minutes, it's always cooks more! I see so many reviews about sending the steak back and it cooks for at the table, people!!) Everything here is always seasoned well, super on point and service is unmatched. In 5 years, Vladimir is the best server we have had. He's kind, caring and yet not robotic, we love his relatability!!! Lastly, the ambiance is better than other steakhouse. It's loud in a good way, you can have a conversation and not feel like the world is listening. We will keep this tradition, we love it! read more

Classic Boston steakhouse. All the high-end cuts of meat you could want in an atmosphere that screams "old money" with dark wood, leather seating and beautiful giant crystal chandeliers everywhere... My husband and I came here on a double date with friends. We started with the lobster dumplings, oysters rockefeller and shrimp cocktail. The dumplings and oysters were phenomenal; I could have eaten 100 of them!! The shrimp were also excellent and some the biggest ones I've ever seen! For our entree, my husband and I split the "tomahawk for two" steak. We shared the whipped potatoes and brussels sprouts with our friends which ended up being the perfect portion size for 4 people. I was more impressed with our apps and sides than our steak. The steak was fattier than expected and not as flavorful as expected. I would still come back here and just get a different cut of steak next time. I would still recommend checking this place out if you're looking for a fancy dinner :) read more

A nod to tradition on a road that looks very different from old world Boylston. Dark wood, leather booths, excellent service -- I see what you're doing here Abe&Louie's keeping the steakhouse mythology alive. But has the food continued to endure or is it the whisper of the greatness of steakhouse past? Flavorful marinated steak was a delight in my "Abe Monsieur" -- but it stopped there. Engulfed in two large slices of mostly bland brioche and what seemed like a sauce reminiscent of thousand island dressing, I was scratching my head wondering why we needed to have the poor piece of meat suffer. Similarly, my Wagyu carpaccio was covered in unseasoned greens and white button mushrooms. The one bright spot was my wedge salad with its thick cut bacon, crisp lettuce and blue cheese -- they served up the classic well. Carthage, Ancient Rome, Qing... are we watching another dynasty fall? Tavistock -- time to cast off Commodus. There was a greatness that was Abe&Louie's -- make us believe it again. read more

7/4/26 Reservations before the fireworks. Been to A&L many times in my 30 years working in back bay, customers and friends. My rib eye perfect as usual, football sized baked potato. My wife had the Halibut special with clams. Fish was okay but A&L must have run out of littlenecks so they decided to use quahogs. Awful choice do better A&L do better. There is an expectation of excellence and you missed the mark. read more

I had dinner at A&L last night before the fireworks. Having spent 30 years in Back Bay in business, I have been to A&L many times for both lunch and dinner. My Rib Eye was perfect - flavor, seasoning and correclty cooked at MR. My wife had the Halibut special with clams. Halibut was fine but it was clear A&L ran out of countnecks because they served boiled quohogs that were chewy and tough, with the dish. The tomato sauce served with the dish was not well thought out and very thick - overall disappointed. Unacceptable A&L do better. I've had had wonderful meals here for years please don't let us down again. The ambiance was as expected, nice but the tables for 2 are ridiculously small and uncomfortable. I choose A&L because I despise chain steak houses and they have always been on point. read more

For a very special restaurant, I want to expand on my brief first review for Abe & Louie's nearly two years ago, the beginning of my Yelp journey! Abe & Louie's has become my happy place as far as Boston fine dining goes, even before joining Yelp and writing that first review. I've probably been there more than any other restaurant in the city, though this past weekend was my first time of the year. They have pretty much everything you could want for a fantastic meal, and almost every entree I've chosen each time I visit is the amazing boneless 16 oz. prime ribeye steak, which I can't stay away from. Rich, buttery, seared perfectly, dense and yet tender as can be, this is how it's done. For the sides, we went a different way this time by getting apps first instead and one new one to share with the entrees, the delectable brown butter creamed spinach. I was able to taste someone's raw clam still in its shell before that, which wasn't really for me but could tell it was high quality. My appetizer, the clam chowder with bacon was delicious and full of flavor, one of the best chowders I've had. Having learned as much as I have in recent years about wine, I found one of my new favorite reds that really hit the spot with my meal, which was a delight because I'm picky with reds. It's called the Super Tuscan, being not really sweet or dry but something else. Light, fruity, but full-bodied I would say, though I'm no wine expert so others might interpret differently. After these amazing apps and dinner, we went for dessert cause why not! The skillet cookie with vanilla ice cream was the cherry on top, the best form of a cookie I can think of. Also a decaf cappuccino with extra foam and brown cane sugar cubes. The specials all sounded amazing too, including a surf 'n turf. If I ever win the lottery I'll probably come here to order all the specials and take the leftovers home! Abe & Louie's has an old-fashioned, classy but comfortable atmosphere with many tables that get filled up as the night goes on, so you'll need a reservation for a weekend visit. Forget about parking as this is Boylston Street, so if you drive in you'll need to valet. There's great service as well. Do yourself a favor and try Abe & Louie's at least once, you'll surely find something great on their expansive and impressive menu! Side note, Atlantic Fish Company next door is like the same thing except a seafood version, absolutely worth visiting and owned by the same company as Abe & Louie's, the Tavistock Restaurant Collection. read more

Abe & Louie's is very nice inside. My friend took me there for my birthday. The specials were well over $125 each. They brought a nice bread basket with butter, which was very good. I ordered the crispy chicken with crispy potatoes, and green beans. The chicken leg was overcooked & dry. The crispy potatoes were overcooked, and I felt that the green beans were undercooked. My friend had the filet mignon omelette and it looked nice and was full of meat. They gave me a delicious chocolate dessert with fruit, whipped cream, and a dish of vanilla ice cream & sang happy birthday along with my friend and other people in the restaurant. Nice touch. The service was fine. read more

Enjoyed the vibe, the service was great, and the food tasted good. I really enjoyed the Au Gratin potatoes, the mac and cheese, and the filet mignon. I think I expected more? For the rave reviews I saw beforehand and the price point, I expected something incredible. It was good, but not incredible. This place is probably a great option for a solid meal and consistent quality, but I wouldn't bring someone with the intention to impress them. If I could give one critique that could be immediately improved, it is that I wish the food was hotter. The lobster dumplings, au gratin, and mac and cheese all came out at the same time and all room temp. I think tasting these dishes while hot would have changed the experience completely. read more

Took my boyfriend for his bday a while back and I was really disappointed with the service and food. The dishes were salty and not enjoyable. We had ordered the steak tartare, caesar salad, and their tomahawk ribeye, which wasn't pretty salty, we had also asked the steak to be made medium well and it was still very red/ pink for my own liking, My bf had to eat most of it because it was just to raw for me still. What stood out the most was the lack of care during a birthday celebration, when the cake was brought out, it was simply placed on the table and the staff walked away without saying a word. No acknowledgment, no greeting, nothing. It felt rushed and impersonal, which took away from what should have been a special moment. Overall, poor service and an experience that didn't meet expectations. read more

So... we are visiting Boston and loving the city. If you love tasty food, pass this address and go somewhere else... When we arrived at the table, the first thing that shocked me was the noise level - it was to much louder than at the bar area. For the price tag of this restaurant, I had assumed that it would have been better designed for a pleasant dining experience. As a group, we mainly ordered steaks and lobsters - well, let say it was a resounding disappointment. The steaks were cooked as ordered but lacked any seasoning. The lobsters - meant to be 2 pound lobsters- arrived with tails and the claws out of shell and in a dish - I immediately was not filled with confidence as it looked quite small for 2 pounds... the explanation - it was overcooked and with absolutely no seasoning - I'm pretty sure there was no kind of seasoning in the water they were overcooked in either, not even a bouquet garni. The butter they were served with was just melted butter, no garlic, no salt, no seasoning of any kind. If you are still reading, you know I wasn't impressed. We also ordered a bottle of wine - the Pouilly Fumé was decent but definitely not worth the price tag. Now let's talk about our server - Jeffrey. From the time we arrived, we felt like he didn't like us / looked down on us. We are tourists, decently dressed but on the casual side, some of us with tattoos - not sure what actually made him think we wouldn't be good customers. He was not very helpful , just trying to up sell and down sell (he clearly didn't read this table well) and did not ask us once how the meal was going (at the point where he should have asked I was told that i would not be the one to speak up to be too blunt). Do i want to go back there ? No. Do I recommend this place to anyone? No. Should you go there on a date? No. Should you go there is you want to look posh but have no taste buds? Yes. Pfffft. read more

He really elevated the whole experience. The food came out quickly, which we appreciated, especially for brunch hours. My partner adored the bread that arrived warm to the table -- a sourdough with cranberry and walnuts that was absolutely delicious. Yum. And the waffle? A real treat. Perfect, plump strawberries on top and homemade whipped cream that honestly had me shaking in my boots.
