It's located in Boca Raton and it's called Abe & Louie's.
Hi, I'm Lew Langer, I'm the general manager of Abe & Louie's in Boca Raton.
Were originally a Boston based steakhouse, We have two locations, in Boston, still in
here in Boca Raton.
We're truly a world-class steakhouse, but with somewhat of a traditional feel with rich
leathers, and mahogany woods, and a little bit of Sinatra in the background.
And also really a family restaurant where we're really a part of this community.
We celebrated the milestones from kindergarten graduations the hundredth birthday parties
and everything in between with this week.
We primarily are a USDA prime steakhouse but we do offer cuts of different grades as well
often featuring an Australian way rule which goes off at different whole marble score system.
Buying the best possible quality products allows us to serve the best possible quality
products to our guests.
My favorite steak in the restaurant is definitely the bone-in rib-eye.
Because you get that marriage between heavily marbled steak, and the flavor coming directly
off the bone.
Abe & Louie's is really about an emotional connection that we have with our guests.
You know, dining has become somewhat pedestrian in our community and in our world.
And Abe & Louie's is really a throwback to that connection you have with a place.
A place where you come into and you immediately feel at home, you immediately feel at ease.
So Linda, tell us about the experience and Abe & Louie's and what stands out to you.
Abe & Louie’s is a excellent steakhouse that you go to either a celebration, or you
want a good steak dinner, or just a plain dinner.
People go to eat, this place you go to dine.
So tell me what you ate this last time you went there.
We started off with a caesar salad, it's so big you have to share it.
A couple of my friends had a onion soup, which they said was the best day ever had and a
crab, a fresh crab.
They absolutely adored it.
We then had a bone-in rib-eye steak, that was cooked to perfection.
Hash Browns, sauteed spinach, it was amazing.
You just made me very hungry.
Yeah taste the mouth the smells.
You could just bottle it.
Nice Roe, tell me about your experience at Abe&Louie's.
It reminds me, of an old world steak house.
And from the moment that my daughter and I sat down, we actually bought our own bottle
and paid a corkage fee.
And a waiter was nice enough to decant it for us.
And we went on to order the porterhouse for two which was presented beautifully.
It comes cut from the kitchen.
We asked for medium, I would ask a medium plus.
Now I know why people were saying plus because it was a little on the raw side for us, and
we ordered their Brussels sprouts.
And I will tell you the meal was just perfect.
And the service was really impeccable.
I couldn't have asked for a better waiter.
So was good piece of meat.
Oh yes, tender like butter.
So Chris, I know you went for brunch, and you liked it but I feel like you could have
loved it.
So what do you think you could've done differently?
So I think differently that it's a steakhouse you're meant to go there at night.
I think that they probably have amazing steaks at night as everyone else has said.
However I went for brunch.
And the brunch was good but not something I were return to.
But I needed to try it again at night.
So tell us what you had.
We have the bacon for the appetizer and we also had the crab cocktail.
The bacon was great, really thick slices of bacon with blue cheese on top of it, very
good thick bacon that, you know it's a big rage nowadays.
And then for the appetizer we had the crab cocktail, which is really good also.
It was very fresh very good.
Okay, you had a turkey sandwich, correct?
Yeah, the turkey sandwich was really good.
It was a good turkey sandwich.
I mean, but it's my fault I ordered turkey sandwich.
Right, I ordered these great steaks, and you're talking about, you know the blood of the steak
and everything else.
So ordered a Turkey sandwich.
Roe, tell us a little bit about the prices.
You did order a big steak and you did pay a little corkage.
So did you find that the food was worth the price?
Yes, I really did find it to be worth the cost.
The corkage fee was fine for me.
We took a very, very nice bottle of wine with us.
And you know, when you're gonna have a perfect steak like we did, you're going to pay for
it.
So it's pricey, I wouldn't be able to go there weekly, but I would definitely go back with
special occasion.
Well, Linda, Abe & Louie's was your pick.
So sum it up for us please.
If you want fine dining, in a great atmosphere with excellent service and fantastic food
be either a celebration or a wonderful dining experience.
Abe & Louie's is the place to go.
Chris, can you sum it up for us?
I think it would be a great steakhouse.
They probably have amazing steaks at night but I went for brunch.
So it was my mistake completely my mistake.
Chris, I just think you need to eat a steak for brunch and get over it.
I should have, but I didn't so.
Okay next time.
Roe give me your summary.
Old world charm, and a wonderful steak experience.
Definitely going back.
