Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Gloucester

My wife and I have been going to Abe & Louie’s on or near Valentine’s Day for many years. It is one of the last old school steak restaurants in Boston. Great service as always and our waiter, Chris was outstanding. We shared a beet and goat cheese salad - perfect. I had the 16 oz NY strip steak. OMG - it was fabulous. Home fries on the side are always a must. My wife had chicken with some crisp, chunks of potatoes. I admit to stealing a few pieces from her plate. Delicious key lime pie for desert. If you want a really good steak and nice service - go to Abe & Louie’s!

What a fun Valentine’s Day! Special menu was delicious and plentiful. Five courses with choices for each. Enjoyed the music too. Only issue was it was really cold out and coming through the glass. Will be a perfect spot when the warmer weather is here.

The Venetian is our favorite spot to go to. It’s very warm and welcoming and the food continues to be creative and very good. We especially like the pasta dishes as they are homemade with organic flour and the pork chop and steaks never a disappointment.

Grill 23 on Valentine's Day was as spectacular as usual. We started out with the Seafood Tower, had a French Onion Soup, followed it with a Wedge Salad, and then the Rib Eye. Food was awesome as ever and the bread basket was filled with great goodies such as corn bread, raisin pumpernickel, and more. The extensive wine list provided a lot of choices and we started with a Paul Hobbs and ended with a Screaming Eagle.
