Average food, very disappointing service
We were visiting from Ohio & this place was recommended by several friends. The food we ordered was good but certainly not worth the prices. The service was a huge disappointment. After placing our orders, we did not see our waiter again to ask if we wanted more drinks or to deliver the straw I had requested until well after our meals were delivered. Had he cared to check on us to see how our food came out, we could have told him that both of our sides were cold. But since he wouldn't come back to our table, we called over a manager. We told her both of our sides were cold & she took them back to be replaced without an apology but after giving us an incredulous look. When our waiter finally came to check on us his response to our cold sides was that it wasn't his fault. Our sides finally came back hot, but since the manager hadn't cared enough to ask us what kind of mashed potatoes we ordered, she brought us back regular, rather the garlic mashed potatoes we had ordered. On our way out we explained to the manager who had helped us, along with another manager how disappointed we were in the service & they were pretty apathetic. One said he takes personal responsibility for everything but did nothing to make the situation right. The $25 side of lobster macaroni I ordered was delicious but was certainly not worth the experience there.

Best Meal I Have Ever Had
My Boyfriend and I went to Abe and Louie's for my 21st birthday and the experience could not have been any better. The food was amazing, the steak melts in your mouth. We had the Clam Chowder, Filet Mignon, Aged Prime New York Sirloin. Everything was amazing and the Margaritas were delicious. The waiter we had was very nice and friendly. The atmosphere was wonderful and the attention to detail is incredible being a neat freak myself it was nice to see. It is definitively pricey but so worth it.

I wouldn't
Few places are as consistently rude and pompous. I am frequently forced to bring clients to Abe and Louie's due to work stipulations, and never seem to have a pleasant experience. The MaƮtre d's that "welcome" you do so in a way that exudes arrogance and superiority. This would be excusable if the food backed it up, but I find that Abe and Louie's rides on their name and "reputation", and delivers a subpar dining meal and overall dining experience. You can definitely get over charged at much finer places

We loved Abe and Louie's
We try to get into Boston to eat at Abe and Louie's at least one per year. Went last night. The food was delicious. Wonderful steaks and swordfish. The waiter was terrific - very attentive. We will definitely be back again.

Delicious lunch
I recently attended a business lunch at Abe & Louie's with 7 colleagues. Although my first impression was not outstanding (the host refused to seat the 5 of us who arrived first even though the restaurant was practically empty), the meal more than made up for it. Every course was scrumptous: crab and tuna appetizers, filet mignon entree, onion strings and sweet potato fries for sides, and the most ridiculous 7-layer chocolate cake for dessert. I had to roll myself back to the office afterwards! The service was attentive, and the waiter was always aware when a glass was empty. Although the meal was quite pricey, I would highly recommend it if you're looking for a special treat or are going on someone else's tab.
