10 Best Steakhouses near Westwood

“I enjoyed it, the drink, food and the ambience, our waiter was very attentive; wouldn’t mind returning for drinks and appetizers.“

“Came to Amelia’s for Easter dinner. This was my first time there and I was not disappointed! Everything was wonderful, from the cleanliness of the restaurant, to the decor, to the food to the cappuccino. But what brought it to perfection level, was our server, Kayla. She was on point, friendly, patient and an all around lovely young lady. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!“

“We were celebrating our 16th anniversary and my retirement, and wanted to do it up right! We picked the right place for it. Coming in from Cape Cod, for a concert at Fenway we had reservations for Abe and Louie’s, but there were 2 at the bar so they let us sit there instead of our table. Our bartenders were great. To our surprise, Bree almost immediately said “Happy Anniversary!” And our drink order was taken. Michelle made a spicy margarita with a nice kick and a heavy glass, and a soda. Then we ordered shrimp cocktail which were brought out in mere moments. The shrimp were huge and cold and crunchy- perfect! We took our time and were not rushed to order our meal, but once we did, with Kendal, she asked all the right questions, offered to split our salad in the kitchen, and made some great recommendations. I wanted my Filet with their wedge salad as my entree and was told no problem. Our meal, my huge filet and my man’s ribeye were both cooked as requested and his suggested garlic whipped potatoes were creamy and yummy! The food was all out of this world, but what made the dining a true experience was the tango these three women danced around each other, each knowing what the other was doing and exactly what their patrons wanted. You can get a great filet many places but I pay for the service and we both felt like we were treated like royalty. Thank you Bree, Kendal and Michelle for making our anniversary and my retirement a true celebration!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I haven’t been to Yard House in so long. I was starving so I decided to get dinner and go for a drink there. I ordered Lobster Garlic noodles, and for a drink I got a Twisted Tea. I was disappointed that they took Chocolate Cake off their menu that was always the best! But I got this big Oreo cookie brownie and it comes with Ice Cream on top with Caramel. It was very delicious. Also, the bartender lady with glasses who severed me was an excellent bartender! She was super sweet very friendly. I hope to come back again soon!“

“Was slightly hesitant about going here after reading latest reviews. Had a wonderful Mother’s Day dinner. Went at opening time to beat the crowds, was already a line. Was greeted cordially with less than a 5 min wait time. Staff was very pleasant. Decorated with a Mother’s Day theme, including pictures with what I think was an Armadillo. Food was perfect from the Prime Rib, all the way down to appetizers, with very generous portions. Waitress was very attentive thru the whole meal. Would highly recommend.“

“Awesomeness! Awesomeness!“

“Outstanding Wagyu rib eye!“
