In the heart of downtown Boston, Eddie Merlot's is your go-to spot for an unforgettable dining experience. Whether you're here for a corporate event, a birthday party, or a romantic evening, our Boston steakhouse offers the perfect blend of sophistication, comfort, and flavor. We're proud to be the local expert when it comes to steak, and with a location just a stone’s throw from the iconic Boston Harbor, the bustling South End, and Beacon Hill, you're in for an evening that reflects the heart of the city itself.

At Eddie Merlot's, we take pride in crafting dishes that speak for themselves. From our perfectly seared New York strip to our rich, melt-in-your-mouth ribeye, every cut is cooked to perfection. Pair that with our buttery Lobster tails or fresh seafood, and you've got a meal that's second to none. Looking for something more decadent? Try a Filet Mignon topped with blue cheese or a signature sauce paired with a bold red wine or a crisp sauvignon blanc.

    The staff was not organized. At a fine dining restaurant I would expect the hostess to hand you the wine list when seated not just put it on the table and walk away. It took a long time to get a glass of water served the our original drink order. When seated our party has already had time review the entire menu for our dinner order before a drink order was even placed. Ordered a lobster tail as an add on to steak and it did not come out with the rest of the meal. For a party of 3, 2 of the steaks had to be sent back because of undercooked. 1 steak was sent back twice. Food was good but nothing special which would make me have to go back. It felt like the staff was inexperienced.

    We had an amazing dining experience at Eddie Merlot’s in Boston! The ambiance was perfect—elegant yet comfortable, making for a great night out. I had the Filet Del Mar, a fantastic surf and turf that was cooked to perfection and paired beautifully with a refreshing Paloma. We ended the meal with a delicious crème brûlée that was perfectly creamy with a crisp caramelized top. The only minor letdown was the espresso martini, which I wished had been dry shaken for a foamier finish. Despite that, everything else was outstanding. Our server, Maria, was attentive and made the night even better. We were visiting from New York and would love to return next time we’re in town!

    02/14/25 Dinner: The Lobster Mac and cheese was excellent. However, the Rib eye steak needs a little more TLC (It wasn't tender and was served warm instead of hot) Other than that, I will go back for more Lobster Mac and Cheese.
