We eat at Abe & Louie's about 5 times a year. I have only had to send my steak back once because it was too tough. They are expensive, but I think the food is excellent .. especially the ice cream with chocolate sauce (the chocolate sauce is sooooo good)! more

Boston's Abe & Louie’s is a classic American steakhouse. The menu is impressive, the steaks outstanding, the service great, and the surroundings elegant. Also found at Abe & Louie’s is a great bar and a comprehensive selection of wines. Valet parking is available. Reservations are recommended. more
