"We’ll always raise an eyebrow whenever an out-of-towner tries their hand at a classic Boston dining experience, but in this case, the idea panned out. The Vermilion Club is a not-so-self-serious steakhouse from NYC-based chef John Fraser’s perspective, which translates into dishes like decadent French onion dumplings, a Caesar salad topped with an everything bagel crumble, and a savory foie gras Boston cream pie. (You’ll find all the usual suspects, from jumbo shrimp cocktail to dry-aged tomahawks, here as well.)" - Erika Adams, Terrence Doyle
