Abe and Louie’s

Abe & Louie’s on Boylston Street is a full-service American steakhouse for the kind of meal you sit down and make time for. Steak is the main attraction, with seafood and other meats giving the table alternatives. The restaurant’s menu includes beef tenderloin tartare, oysters Rockefeller, and a rosemary-crusted rack of lamb, so dinner doesn’t have to begin and end with a cut of beef.

Lunch and weekend brunch offer other ways to visit the Back Bay restaurant. There are separate menus for those meals, along with a wine list, and you can reserve a table online. Private and semi-private dining are available for celebrations or work dinners. For a smaller occasion, a regular table at 793 Boylston Street will do.
