Abe & Louie's
About
Abe & Louie's is a classic American steakhouse on Boylston Street in Back Bay: prime aged Midwestern steaks, fresh seafood with seasonal produce, and a wine list the restaurant puts at more than 200 globally sourced selections. It began in the Back Bay Restaurant Group, the company Charles F. Sarkis built in Boston, and he named it after his father and a good friend. Today it belongs to Tavistock Restaurant Collection, which also runs a sister Abe & Louie's in Boca Raton, Florida.
It suits a business dinner, a family celebration or a steak after an afternoon on Boylston and Newbury Streets. Because it opens for lunch every day and serves brunch at weekends, it works for more than a big evening out. The restaurant recommends business casual dress, which is a useful signal of the room: this is the dressed-up end of Back Bay dining rather than a sports-bar steak.
What to order
Steaks are the center of the menu, and the restaurant highlights a recent refresh that keeps the steakhouse classics while adding dishes such as a hand-cut beef tenderloin tartare, oysters Rockefeller, a rosemary-crusted rack of lamb and a Lobster Madame. There is a separate weekend brunch menu. Current Boston lunch, dinner, brunch and wine menus are on the official menu page, and pickup or delivery can be ordered online for a steakhouse dinner back at the hotel.
Private and group dining
Several private and semi-private rooms take groups of 10 to 125 guests, with seated events for up to 100 and receptions for up to 125. Menus are customized for the event, and the restaurant pitches the rooms for rehearsal dinners, corporate meetings, graduation dinners and showers. Tables for 10 or fewer are booked as normal reservations; larger groups go through the event inquiry.
Where it is
The restaurant is at 793 Boylston Street in Back Bay, ZIP 02116. Back Bay is Boston's shopping and hotel district, and the restaurant sits among its shops and hotels. The restaurant lists no parking arrangements on its own website, so ask when you book if you plan to drive.
