Service felt overworked and frazzled handling multiple tables. Servers were pleasant and polite, but some dishes were late or forgotten, drinks took a while to arrive, had to repeat orders. Food was not exceptional. Not sure I would go back to what is billed as a traditional, classic establishment for food that is just ok. The best dish was the seasonal shrimp and avocado stack.

Superb food but current service would kindly be described as chaotic. I think they are short of staff so don’t expect a quick meal, however location and quality of the food still make it worth dining at The Chart House.

There was a wedding rehearsal on floor two that was distracting and one of the hostesses was very bossy and not kind to other staff members or patrons. Less impressed than I had hoped I’d be.

It was our 1st time eating at The Chart House and it met up to our expectations. Everything was fabulous from our Valet to our Dinner. The food was delicious and our waiter Zach was fantastic. We highly recommend The Chart House.

I didn’t have high expectations for this restaurant as it seemed a bit touristy, but co-workers who were visiting wanted to go. The hostess was awesome getting us a table as they were pretty busy. The service was awful. Took forever to take our order, forever to get our drinks (we would have ordered several rounds but only had time for one), and they kept giving the wrong items to people. The food was maybe 2-3 stars. Fish was over cooked. And why would a Boston restaurant have Australian lobster tail??? The building is cool and it’s a great location to visit. Not rushing to go back.

Filet mignon was over cooked twice. They didn’t take it off the check. They gave a free lava cake that had no hot runny chocolate in the center as a lava cake should.

Milan was a great server! The prix fixe 3 course was a bit pricey. The outside bill vendor dessert was below standard for 10$ extra. Plenty of starch no real vegetables. Dinner for 3 with no alcohol was $279 with tip. Yikes! I’d recommend but not on a holiday menu…

Had a great time. Beautiful setting with no TVs, and the background music stayed in the background. Temperature was comfortable. Attentive service. Busy Sunday afternoon and likely short-staffed. Portions were a good size but prices steep. Pleasant food, amazing wine.

Chart House typically doesn't disappoint for food quality and ambiance, but this time it was the service that ruined it for us. TERRIBLE! It was my husband's birthday celebration and we felt totally neglected. It took a 1/2 hour to even get a first round of cocktails and we had to keep asking for bread on the table, which only came out minutes before the meal. We can go elsewhere for ambiance and good food, lot's of other options in Boston. Will think twice about going to the Chart House again. Too bad.

Our celebration of Father's Day and his Octogenarian's Birthday could not have been more wonderful for my husband -and for us all! We loved the great history of the Chart House and the energy of its fantastic vibe! The table was beautifully set and in no time Igor, our great server, was taking cocktail orders. Cheers to the bar staff, our beverages were perfect and oh the hors d'oeuvres! We felt so welcome and Igor's timing was impeccable. He was warm, attentive and anticipated our every need, Our meals were all delightful...excellent quality, lovely presentation. Great to have artists in your kitchen! The shrimp, the swordfish, the tuna, as well as the vegetables...simply delicious. And oh the desserts! We so enjoyed the happy energy of the staff and the tangible enjoyment of the whole floor. Clearly, every party was savoring a memorable afternoon at the Chart House. Thank you! The Moran Family Framingham, MA

Service was poor. The lady took our order and that was the last time we saw her until we asked another waitress to get our bill. After asking two other waitresses for our bill….the original waitress showed back up with the bill. Not sure what the problem was but the experience was poor. No one ever stopped to check on us. Maybe they were just having an “off” afternoon.

We arrived early for our reservation and were greeted by the host she told us our table wasn’t ready and that if we wanted we could sit by the bar and wait so we did. However, my husband and I were a little thrown off because of the staff at the bar, they were unwelcoming. We ended up leaving and going to a bar down the block while we waited for our table to be ready because after 15 minutes of sitting there and multiple bar staff members walking in and out of the bar no one greeted us or asked if we needed anything. We were nervous that the rest of our night would be like that. But all that changed the minute we arrived at our table and were seated our servers were amazing and so friendly. They made sure our experience was perfect. The food was delicious! We can’t wait to come back to Boston and have another meal at CH.
