Nice place, maybe a bit dated. The servers were great, very helpful and friendly. Calamari was outstanding, pasta bolognese was pretty good and the mashed potatoes we great. However we got an 8 ounce Wagyu Ribeye for my son (the first Wagyu he's had) and it was awful. One of the worst steaks I've ever had (he was hacking it to pieces to find actual meat so I tried it and it was bad). It was all fat and sinew, I can't believe they served it. We mentioned it to the waiter and he thanked us for the feedback. Not a bad overall experience but if you are going to charge $88 for an 8 oz steak it should be good.

Ambiance and service were stellar. Salads a bit small for the price . I had the risotto which was quite spicy but very tasty. All told, a good experience
Brian
Food was amazing, Japanese A5 Strip was completely worth the price, best steak we've ever had! Great cocktails, fantastic ambiance. And the Speakeasy downstairs was an added after-dinner bonus!

Excellent first experience at Monk Road Boiler House, making us wonder why we waited so long to get there! Menu was incredible, matching top steak and seafood restaurants in cities anywhere. Each item we had was excellent (frito misto, ahi tuna, filet, broiler potato) and service was attentive and personalized throughout. Noise was very low but we started early at 5:30pm on a Wednesday and noticed the energy was picking up as we left for a show. Cant wait to visit again soon to try other menu items that sounded amazing!

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. We will be back. The pork chop will most definitely bring me back.

Had a wonderful fist experience! Celebrated my boyfriends 30th birthday. Lamb chomps were delectable, the pasta was so fresh. Our server was knowledgeable, and very attentive.

Atmosphere screamed leave upon arrival. Our bartender didn’t know how to make a gin and tonic. Bourbon was good and that was all.

Over the top fabulous experience - food was outstanding and the place is historical - love the brick! Chef personally greeted us and the ambience and lighting historically accurate - definitely recommend and will return - met is just right with amount of choices that are not run of the mill

My husband and I went here for our anniversary/ birthday dinner. The food and drinks were very good! The calamari is delicious.
The best old fashion cocktail we have ever had. The staff were friendly and food was excellent. We will definitely go back.

Our server wasn't attentive and dismissive. The waygu was stringy and chewy, steaks were subpar. Not a great expensive

10/10’s across the board. I was recently in town for a work convention and happened upon this neat little place as it was outside my Airbnb. I stopped in to explore and was amazed, best service, best food, and a better spmostphher than I could have imagined.
