Smith & Wollensky

Awesome. Great steakhouse in Downtown boston. Service was good and Steak was perfect. The sides were average; but If I cared about side dishes, I would go to a Chillies. A serious steak lovers restaurant.…

Excellent service. Good food. relaxed atmosphere. My friend and I went to Smith & wollenskys for Thanksgiving. My friend had the Thanksgiving prix fix dinner. I ordered off the menu. The service was excellent . they made you feel like a special guest. As dining room was half -filled, very little noise. My friend's crab cake was very tasty and fresh. Steaks are cooked well. Wine pours are average. Perhaps order a bottle.…

great overall. The food is hands down delicious. My boyfriend and I started off with the split pea soup and the caesar salad. Although the salad was fine (I'm not sure how you can make caesar salad more than fine) the soup was really tasty. They also provide a cute garlic/herbed bread that is baked individually. We both had filet mignons, I had mine Oscar style and he had his Gorgonzola encrusted. Although both steaks were a tad bit overdone, we enjoyed them tremendously and loved different styling. He thought the Gorgonzola steak was the best steak he ever had. We also had a whipped potato and sauteed spinach accompaniments which were on the small side but decent as far as sides go. The desserts were fantastic (one of the best creme brulees I've had and a rich chocolate rich). We talked a bit to the sommelier about the wines and he ended up gifting us two copies of the Great American Wine Guide which was a very sweet gesture. The service was spot on and it made for a very romantic night out.…

Restaurant Week. Have to say we felt like the trailer trash cousins invited to Thanksgiving dinner. No one really wanted us there but had to ask.Both the bread and the Caesar salad were a huge disappointment. We ate early so the bread could have been yesterday's and the salad was brown, under-dressed and flavorless.The fillet mignon was cooked to perfection and the Bearnaise sauce was excellent but that's about all I can say on the positive side. The hash browns, despite several warnings from our waiter about the intense heat of the plate they were served on, were luke warm at best and not at all crisp on the outside.The desserts were the biggest disappointment of all. The chocolate cake was very dry and the creme brulee was soupy and tasteless. The wait staff was neither friendly or rude, just "there" (although they seemed much more personable to the table behind us that was ordering off the menu) For the money, we will stick with Morton's.…
