This is one of our favorite restaurants! From the food to the service everything is always impeccable! Abe & Louie’s should be on everyone’s top three. And if you’re lucky enough to sit in Shaheen‘s section it’s an even more amazing experience!

We had a unique experience; we traveled to Boston three weeks in a row for concerts and with probably the best overall hotel in Boston a block down and across the street (they have rooms with real wood fireplaces), we took the opportunity to try Abe & Louie's three times in 15 days. We normally focus on the food (excellent selection and preparation, the new ribeye cap steak is incredible), service (Victor is amazing), wine (Matt's knowledge and selections make the meal perfect) and support, whether people like Fernando always quietly behind the server ensuring seamless dining or management stopping by to greet you and check on your meal. By trying Abe & Louie's 'frequently' we found that our enjoyment of the food/wine/team isn't just us enjoying ourselves. Abe & Louie's has one other feature that makes it stand out as one of Boston's premier restaurants and definitely Boston's best 'steak house', consistency. No matter who you are, whether it's your first trip or you go every month (or more often if you're lucky), whether you arrive early or come by for a late dinner, it's the same; it's amazing how they keep up the high standards on a slow snowy afternoon or a beautify evening. We probably won't be back to Boston for four to six weeks but are pretty sure that Abe & Louie’s will have the same high standards as if it were just last Friday. For everything, thank you Mr. Sala, Victor, Matt, Dave and the entire Abe & Louie's team. Bill & Julie
