Food NetworkAugust 4, 2014Menu 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
John Brouse IIIJune 24, 2015I 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!
Kathy KelleyDecember 29, 2017Perfectly 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.
Boston.comNovember 8, 2013Devra 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
Don KelleyDecember 29, 2017Fabulous. 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.
Ricky SherrillMay 19, 2016This 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.- Camille DuhamelJune 16, 2019The 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!
Andrew HumeAugust 26, 2018Fantastic 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 CommonApril 19, 2017This 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.
ChristineApril 22, 2014Excellent 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.
Francisco ArrietaAugust 30, 2014Broad wine list, but too expensive. Best oysters I've ever had! The 100 days dry aged ribeye is a must in this restaurant!
Christopher MichaelJune 10, 2014Ambience 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.
Al SOctober 28, 2014Conventional wisdom suggests avoiding chicken dishes at steakhouses, but the Brick Pressed Chicken here is fantastic. The Valrhona Chocolate Layer Cake is also obscenely delicious.
Michael HadwinFebruary 14, 2018Extensive and eclectic wine list with some good value if you search! Alaskan Crab to die for and beautifully caramelised seared steaks.
Elizabeth MaiuoloApril 20, 2016Get 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.
Diana RichterFebruary 20, 2018Single greatest coconut cake I’ve ever tasted. Save some to take home, it’s even more delicious the next day!
NicolasOctober 8, 2013The 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$)...- Boston.comAugust 4, 2014Want to impress some hungry carnivores? Take them to this topnotch steakhouse for dry-aged sirloin. Loud and masculine, it offers some of the best cuts in town. Read more
Vanessa GatlinFebruary 17, 2014(Best of Boston 2013-STEAK HOUSE) Improper Bostonian says, "The grande dame of steal houses turns 30 this year, but she hardly feels over-the-hill. Classic service..."
Iman JalaliSeptember 17, 2014I've has steaks across the country, but the Kobe Cap steak was one of, maybe the best steak I've ever had.
Victoria FragerMay 14, 2015Get the coconut cake with pineapple sorbet! Loved the salmon and great raw bar
Katherin SonJuly 6, 2012I believe the cocktails here to be lethal. Get a steak - medium rare - and the truffle tots. Oh, and put your fancy pants on.- Recep Cag KendirciogluMay 4, 2019Best steakhouse! I heard there is an affiliation with Post 390 but more upscale
Emily BaerSeptember 9, 2014Very expensive wine, and wonderful service. The grilled cheese is absolutely amaZing.
Bordeaux WinesApril 19, 2012A great steak is always a treat. Make your meal divine by pairing it with Bordeaux.
Robert CasperAugust 15, 2012Fantastic service. Elegant interior. Awesome! Order the 100 day aged ribeye.
Best steak in the city, and among the best seafood. Former by a significant margin.
Abi PanickerNovember 27, 2010Amazing food, amazing service, best steakhouse in the city! Sit at the bar and hope Chris L. is bartending, you wont be disappointed.
Boston MagazineNovember 15, 2011Like 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
Chefs FeedAugust 22, 2014Robert Sisca, chef of Bistro du Midi, eats here on his nights off. He loves the 100 Day Ribeye. Read more
David LermaOctober 24, 2013I would not be surprised if pumpkin mouse at Grill 23 is served in heaven.
