My wife and I have been going to Abe & Louie’s on or near Valentine’s Day for many years. It is one of the last old school steak restaurants in Boston. Great service as always and our waiter, Chris was outstanding. We shared a beet and goat cheese salad - perfect. I had the 16 oz NY strip steak. OMG - it was fabulous. Home fries on the side are always a must. My wife had chicken with some crisp, chunks of potatoes. I admit to stealing a few pieces from her plate. Delicious key lime pie for desert. If you want a really good steak and nice service - go to Abe & Louie’s!

Unfortunately, my wife’s steak was undercooked. She got very upset. She was extremely hungry at the moment and could not eat her steak because she asked medium rare and it came back pretty much raw. Very disappointjng she has been going to ABE’s for years and this was one of the first times she did not enjoy her food
