Restaurants have overall ratings in the top 20% for their Diamond Rating level, plus no member complaints in the past 12 months.
Their famous 100-day-dry-aged rib-eyes, exceptional wine program, and attentive service make this classic my pick as the best downtown steakhouse.
AAA Inspector Notes
Classic. This is Boston’s premier steakhouse with cuts ranging in size from 10 to 32 ounces and a reputation for decadent desserts. Also on the menu are rack of lamb, lobster, and tasty classic steakhouse sides. Six massive marble columns support the ceiling of the dining room, which is on the original trading floor of the 1923 Salada Tea Building, hence the restaurant's name. Guests may opt to dine on the first or second floors; whichever you choose the staff will treat you like royalty. The expansive world-class wine list and ability to purchase a cigar that is hand-rolled at your table (though enjoyed outside) adds to the timeless charm that diners often return to, since their opening in 1983.
