Profile

This Kenmore Square brasserie serves up fare both adventurous (a three-tier shellfish platter) and everyday (a house burger topped with melted cheddar and served on buttery brioche) in a stylish dining room with a marble bar, giant globe pendant lights, and soft leather banquettes. Be sure to book ahead when the Red Sox are in town.

I wish Eastern Standard was the standard for all steaks. I had the Saturday special--pepper beef tournedos, two mini filet minon with creamy mushrooms, and it was the best steak I ever had. Also, order the blueberry thrill cocktail with housemade blueberry infused vodka. Terrific concoction. Will never drink artificially flavored Stoli again.
