Welcome to Our Table

From memorable meals to milestone celebrations, happy hours to hosted events, our Boston Ruth’s Chris Steak House masterfully blends award-winning modern dining with a beautifully renovated historic setting.

Architectural past meets design presence: Extensively remodeled and thoughtfully restored, our landmark Old City Hall home along the Freedom Trail blends approachable sophistication with a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. A brightened dining area showcases a wall of wines from classic to rare vintages, while nineteenth-century beechwood architectural details have been carefully restored.

A bar, an original vault, and a Boston legend: At Curley’s, our extensively renovated bar, ask our mixologists about its colorful namesake over one of our craft cocktails or wines. For an unforgettable group experience, reserve our original 1860s vault – now an intimate private dining space for up to 14 – one of several private dining areas we now offer.

Visit Boston’s award-winning steak house. While our USDA Prime steaks and their signature sizzle may have put us on the map, you’ll also find fresh seafood, scratch-made side dishes and desserts, craft cocktails and choice wines, served with the sort of hospitality that would make our namesake proud.
