Gift Tips
- Order one of the restaurant's signature cocktails at the bar — favorites include the Paper Plane, Brown Butter Old Fashioned, and the Vesper.
- Share a selection of seafood starters, such as the seafood tower or caviar, to sample fresh preparations without committing to a single entrée.
- Split sides using the half-sides option to try multiple accompaniments; the creamed spinach and roasted carrots are frequently enjoyed.
- Save room for a classic dessert — the coconut cake and crème brûlée are popular choices and travel well if you pick up a slice to go.
- Ask for a knowledgeable server recommendation when choosing a steak or wine; staff members are experienced at pairing the award-winning wine list with your meal.

Grill 23 & Bar is a well-known steak and seafood restaurant in Boston's Back Bay (MA 02116). Opened in 1983, it helped shape Boston’s modern fine-dining scene and remains a destination for special-occasion meals and business dinners.
- Ambiance: Classic, upscale steakhouse set in Back Bay with turn-of-the-century ceilings, Corinthian columns, mahogany paneling and a lively first-floor bar.
- Cuisine: Focused on prime, all-natural dry-aged beef and creative New England seafood preparations, complemented by an award-winning wine list.
- Highlights: Longstanding Boston institution with over 40 years of history, recognized for consistency, attentive service, and a celebrated wine program.
The dining room preserves many original architectural details, giving the space a formal, timeless feel while the first-floor bar offers a more energetic counterpoint for cocktails and lighter bites. The restaurant emphasizes carefully sourced ingredients and traditional preparation techniques, which have helped it stay consistently recognized within the city.
Service at Grill 23 is a central part of the experience; staff are experienced at guiding guests through the menu and wine list to create a tailored meal. While dinner here is often reserved for celebrations, the team also accommodates thoughtful requests like special takeout orders or customized desserts for events.
