16 Best Steakhouses near Waltham

“Went here for my birthday. Wasn't cheap, but I got what I paid for. They did have a price fixe menu available for $60, but I went a la carte. Steak was seasoned and cooked to perfection, and the seafood (my meal featured shrimp, crab, and lobster) was all delicious as well. 10/10 would recommend strongly.

We didn't really need the reservations that we'd made, as the place was pretty quiet on a Thursday night. I can't speak for the weekends, though.“

“Another fantastic birthday meal at Eddie V’s! All staff, especially, Darrell, gave us exceptional service. The lobster tacos were *chef’s kiss*, both our entrees, cocktails and desserts (including a complimentary banana foster) did not disappoint.“

Definitely one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a while!“

“I love StockYard. We haven't been in a long time as we moved faraway. Now, after 10 years we came back and it was like we never stopped coming to eat here. The food was super delicious. The NY Sirloin, and the tenderness of the Fille Minog was extraordinary. Outstanding customer service. The drinks were superb. And the complimentary chocolate cake with ice cream for Father's day was out of this world. Thank you.“

“The staff and management are always super nice and the food delicious! Guaranteed good time!“

“Our party of 14 had the wonderful opportunity for the private room Sunday June 5th. The 50th anniversary party was treated royally by Ron and Sharon. Their service and knowledge of the entrees was spot on. The kitchen staff didn't disappoint! Everything about our visit just needed to be acknowledged! Thank you.“

“always excellent meals and sides“

“One of my favorite steakhouses, for special occasions especially! I've had the tomahawk for 2 before and it was delicious! Definitely a splurge but the table side carving is a great touch. My most recent visit me and my boyfriend both got the bone-in ribeye and it was phenomenal, cooked to perfection!!! Our waiter, Sean, was also excellent! Attentive without being overwhelming and when he heard I was going to order the roasted bone marrow add-on, he made the wonderful suggestion of getting the appetizer portion of 2 boats so we both could enjoy. It also came with bread (different from the delicious salted one in the beginning), sauce, and a roasted head of garlic for $26 vs $15 for just the add-on, great deal! The manager on duty, Carolyn, stopped by the table as well and was so personable and pleasant to speak with. She wished me a happy birthday and wrote a lovely follow up email. The drinks were delicious and well balanced, spicy marg and an old fashioned. Overall, a lovely experience and will definitely be back again.“

“Food was great as was our server. There was a birthday celebrant with us and she was treated accordingly. The only issue to me was how loud the place was because it was quite full. There is no reason why noise buffers can't be used from the start when restaurants are designed.“

“we come to Lexington every year for a muster and we eat here every time.“

“Last night was my second time at Post 1917 in Lexington. Outstanding meal top to bottom. The steaks were cooked to perfection, the mushroom and sweet corn sides were amazing and the tater tots (I'd rename them mashed potater tots) are ridiculous. The service was fantastic and the reception my wife and I got from Lori was as warm and welcoming as the first time I was there with a different group. We have great steak house choices in Massachusetts and this one is among the top. Well done to everyone there.“

“Yard House is a large, modern American restaurant that leans heavily into a high-energy bar-and-grill experience with a strong focus on variety. The space feels open and lively, with a sports-friendly layout that makes it easy for both groups and casual drop-ins to settle in. It has a polished chain-restaurant feel, but the scale and atmosphere still make it feel like a destination spot, especially around Fenway.

The menu is broad and built around comfort-forward dishes with a slightly elevated bar food approach. Items like nachos, steak bowls, burgers, and fried appetizers are consistent staples, with enough variety that groups with different preferences can all find something. Portions are generous, and the food is generally geared more toward satisfaction and shareability than subtle, refined cooking. It works well as a place where you are ordering a mix of plates rather than focusing on a single standout dish.

One of the biggest highlights is the beer selection. The rotating taps and wide range of styles make it one of the more beer-focused casual dining spots in the area. The option to build beer flights adds to that experience and makes it easy to try multiple styles in one visit, which is a big part of the appeal if you are there for drinks as much as food.

The atmosphere is busy and social, especially during peak hours or game days near Fenway. It can get loud, but that fits the overall energy of the space, especially if you are watching sports or meeting a group. Service is generally efficient and friendly, even when the restaurant is full, though pacing can vary depending on crowd size.

Overall, Yard House is a dependable option for a lively night out with a large group, sports viewing, or casual drinks with food. It is not trying to be subtle or niche, but it delivers consistency, variety, and a strong bar experience that makes it an easy go-to in the area.“

“Kaitlyn was an amazing waitress! It was a busy early evening at the restaurant, but she was still incredibly attentive, friendly, and warm. We were in town to move my daughter into Boston University and stopped at LongHorn after a five-hour drive. Needless to say, we were starving!
The manager also checked on our table several times to make sure both the food and service were great, which we really appreciated. Everything was delicious, the service was excellent, and my family and I left very happy. We were definitely not disappointed and would gladly return!“

“Outstanding Wagyu rib eye!“
