Originally opened in 2005, Garrett Harker’s flagship restaurant has reopened its doors just up Beacon St. only three blocks from its original location. Eastern Standard continues to offer seasonally focused New England interpretations of classic brasserie fare, including raw bar and charcuterie, nostalgic favorites like steak tartare, baked rigatoni, steak frites, and butterscotch bread pudding, and some new soon-to-be-instant-classic dishes. Cocktail legend Jackson Cannon has crafted a beverage menu that features an array of craft cocktails both new and classic, a curated selection of wines, and craft beers from near and far.

Please contact events@eshospitality.com to inquire about hosting your private event or large party reservation.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Acclaimed brasserie Eastern Standard is back and better than ever at the Bower complex. Snag a seat at the oyster shell-inspired bar or in the mahogany-decked dining room for longtime favorites like the baked rigatoni and roasted bone marrow, plus the same showstopping cocktails that earned the restaurant accolades from Esquire and Tales of the Cocktail.

    Engagement party: really appreciate Laura with all the help. Guest were seated earlier than the reservation time, and servers/waitress were all attentive. Would eat here again any day of the week.

    Steak Sunday was great! Good value. This is a limited menu but still great and plenty of options (at least for us!) Great cocktails, nice servers.

    Phenomenal as always! Our waitress was the best — she was friendly, upbeat, and made great suggestions. I think her name was Katie, but I am not positive. She shared with us that she used to work at the original Eastern Standard as well which we were delighted to learn! I enjoyed the salmon, as well as some oysters + a couple of other apps we shared amongst the table. The drinks were 10/10 throughout the evening — this is always my favorite place to grab a cocktail because they NEVER disappoint. Already daydreaming about what I’ll get when we dine with you again very soon:) keep up the amazing work!

    Food was outstanding but service is lacking. Pre game expected a quicker tempo and it felt like we had to be the ones to do it. Food is sooo worth it though if you have time.

    The menu was not that vast for lunch. The spicy chicken sandwich I got was not that spicy and my wife's meat was very stringy. The quality at the new location does not at all match the old one in Kenmore Square based on my 2 visits.

    The food remains top notch for the most part. Great oyster spot, nice variety otherwise. Ambiance has really changed at the new location though.
