Chart House Restaurant - Boston

Chart House is great spot for date night or dinner with visitors from out of town. They have great food options and a full happy hour menu. Diana is amazing and makes the best hot toddy in town!

I’m so glad we came across Chart House. We were planning to sit outside, but we were talked into sitting upstairs and I’m so glad we did. If and when you come here, please ask for Joseph to be your waiter. He is the kindest, most attentive, and knowledgeable waiter we’ve ever had. He told us about the history of the building which completely captivated us. The prime rib and lobster tail were amazing. Best prime rib I’ve ever had. I can’t say enough great things about Chart House and Joseph.

My wife and I had an amazing dinner! From Tim, the awesome valet who provided some historical information about the area to the atmosphere that was warm and inviting, with a great rustic but modern feel that set the perfect mood for our dinner. The highlight of our experience was our waiter, Andres. He was absolutely fantastic—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. He made great recommendations and ensured that every detail of our meal was perfect. It’s rare to find service that is both professional and genuinely warm, but Andres nailed it! The food was outstanding—every dish was cooked to perfection, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. From the appetizers to the dessert, everything exceeded our expectations. We’ll definitely be back!

We had the calmari, ceaser salad, filet mignon with chimichuri butter, shrimp linguine, and lava cake. Calamari are amazing ! My husband loved the steak, I thought the linguine was missing more more spices to it. Lava cake was divine. The atmosphere is amazing and the building is beautiful.

Well where do I start! 🤩 this place is awesome! Few options for seating area! Either outside, 1st 2nd or 3rd floor ( 3rd FL reservation needed) very nice and clean restaurant! , the staff was very friendly and welcoming! The food is 5 stars⭐️ ! Very delicious and cooked to perfection 😋, I had a fillet Mignon steak 🥩 and a Lobster 🦞, so delicious! The staff will take lobster apart for you) I’ve had this done at a restaurant, very cool 😎! this is an expansive restaurant so expect to pay at least $50 per person if you order Lobster 🦞 or Fillet mignon 🥩 steak. However it’s worth every dollar 💵! Definitely recommend this restaurant, stop by and try it out for yourself.

My husband and I visited Chart House this past Friday for an early Valentine’s dinner, and it was the highlight of our week. We opted for bar seating, which turned out to be the best decision of the night thanks to the incredible service. A huge shout out to Danny and Manuela! They were both exceptionally kind, personable, and truly went above and beyond: Custom Service: I requested blue cheese stuffed olives (which aren't usually on the menu), and Danny didn't hesitate to make them from scratch just for me. Expert Mixology: Manuela crafted a phenomenal pineapple tequila drink for my husband that was perfectly balanced. Local History: Beyond the drinks, we were so impressed by their knowledge of the historic building. It added such a cool, intellectual layer to our dining experience. The food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere of the wharf is hard to beat. If you’re looking for great vibes and a staff that actually cares about the details, this is the spot. Highly recommended!

This restaurant is located very close to the Aquarium, which made it super convenient since we had an event nearby. We made a reservation just to be safe. Once we walked in, we were served fresh bread - really good, soft, and warm. I wasn’t a fan of the crackers, but that’s just because I generally don’t like toasted sesame seeds. For drinks, I got a mocktail with cucumber and honey, which was refreshing and light. My partner ordered a bourbon with chocolate, and it was amazing - the garnish was a big chocolate sphere with a cherry on top. For food, I ordered a medium-rare tuna steak that came with orzo, and my partner got the mahi bake. Both dishes were good (solid 4/5, but I wouldn't put it as 5/5 simply because I've had these dishes better elsewhere). We skipped dessert since we were pretty full by then. Overall, it was a good experience and surprisingly affordable (around $100 for two drinks and two entrées).

Coconut shrimp was good, drinks took a while. Prime rib was pretty good, not the best I’ve had. Service was slow but fine. Forgot one of our sides and didn’t bring until we were finished with our mains.. they comped dessert as a result. Chocolate lava cake was good, everything about this restaurant was a 4 IMO. Don’t expect to be wowed but everything was serviceable.

My family and I had just an okay time here. We loved the calamari to start, but were a bit disappointed in the more lackluster entrees. The risotto (in the sea bass + lobster risotto) was really good, but the fish was chewy and the flavors were boring and uninspired. Similarly, the chef’s choice of the crab stuffed sole felt heavy with muddled flavors. Lava cake dessert was good, but our server said the creme brûlée was warm when it was actually cold, so the communication could have been better there (he meant that the top should’ve been warm, which it still wasn’t, but he didn’t specify that when we asked him originally)

Absolutely Disgusting and Unacceptable I cannot believe what just happened at what’s supposed to be a high-end steakhouse. I was halfway through my steak and lobster tail ( an expensive meal) when a cockroach crawled right out from under my plate. Yes, you read that correctly: a cockroach. The waiter actually killed it right on the table, next to my food. When I told the manager, their response was unbelievably casual. They said, “We sprayed for them today, so that usually happens when we attack their homes.” Seriously?! That’s their explanation for a roach showing up on a dinner plate at a supposedly fine dining restaurant? As if that weren’t insulting enough, they only took off the sides and appetizer from the bill. Not the main dish that the bug literally came out from. The lack of professionalism, cleanliness, and basic customer care is astounding. If you value hygiene, class, or even basic decency, stay far away from this place. I wouldn’t go back if they paid me. Absolutely revolting.
