Vermilion

The Best New Restaurants In Boston - Boston - The Infatuation

"There are plenty of restaurants Downtown where you can take someone for a business lunch or dinner, and most of them are fine. But if you want to get a deal done, or have a quiet conversation, the Vermilion Club is the place to do it and get some amazing food in your belly at the same time. Set above the lobby of an office building, inside you’ll find a giant orange Chihuly sculpture over the bar—your first clue that this meal isn’t going to be cheap. There’s a hushed atmosphere, along with dark booths on one end and sunlit tables center stage in front of massive windows. The menu is accessible, with a number of steaks prepared natural or Montreal spiced (go with the latter). The veal chop pizzaiola—essentially a pepperoni pizza with veal crust—is one of the best things we’ve eaten this year, and we eat an obscene amount of food." - tanya edwards, grace kelly
