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 favourites 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.

    Decent restaurant, nothing too special. Worth the price? Maybe.

    Last night, I had a really good evening and our server was named Samuel G. He was so kind and rendered to our every need that evening, which made our evening even more special because of how great he was as a person and a server.

    Hadn’t been to ES since it moved from Comm Ave. The food was good, cocktails were delicious (tho pricey), but the service was top-notch. We almost felt like we were in the Knives episode of The Bear—the staff was SO attentive. Special shout out to the hostess, who accommodated us an hour earlier than our bar-seating reservation, which was much appreciated as we were going to see Sting perform at the MGM Music Hall. She is the reason this review is rated as high as it is. Cause the prices are really out of control, and I’m still surprised by the “kitchen administrative fee” that was tacked onto our bill ( it’s always something).

    The overall dining experience there is tremendous and much of that has to do with an excellent manager named Sydney. From her greeting at the door to her recommendations of food and wine pairings, she helps distinguish service in this restaurant from many others of the same class here in Boston.

    The evening started out rough. 20 minutes late to sit us at our table which was right next to the wide entrance to the kitchen . We were also stuck next to the waitstaff station and 4 very loud diners. When our drinks came out wrong we had had enough and were ready to leave. But Sophia and Eastern Standard saved the day. Somehow they recognized that we were unhappy and surprised us with a nice quiet booth away from the kitchen, a complimentary appetizer and dessert and paid for our drinks at the bar when we were waiting for the table. They couldn't have treated us better. We really appreciated the gracious hosting of us and all you did to make it right. Food and service were fantastic. Will definitely go back.

    Haven’t been to the restaurant since they moved but was a frequent flyer for many years. We loved the new location. Great space! The food was wonderful as always. The service was spectacular thanks to Maria our server who was top notch and extremely personable and professional.

    Great drinks, good food but wouldn’t go out of my way for it. Sports bar vibes in a fine dining setting but makes sense being next to Fenway. Go Sox!

    Four of us went on a Thursday night. It gets crowded and can be noisy. The decor was lovely (but still liked the other location better). The food was very good but not outstanding. We all got different items: shrimp, burger, pasta and steak frites. All good. Just not exceptional. 4% additional service charge on the bill for the kitchen.
