    We came in the night after Thanksgiving night and the restaurant was still fairly busy. It's much easier to park in this area when there's not a Red Sox game going on, and the service is more normal than when everyone is going to the game. I'm much happier with Eastern Standard in their current location and then when they were on Kenmore Square. Glad I returned, and compliments to the architect for a beautiful and acoustically pleasing environment.

    Only negative for today was the terrible valet service. After waiting 15 minutes we decided to find a garage and park ourselves. Understandably it was a rainy day but cars were lined up down the street waiting to be parked or at least see a valet. Definitely not a good day for the valet attendants. Once inside our experience was amazing as always.

    I took some friend/clients for dinner. The night started with a very warm welcoming from Jimmy up front. He is such a great guy. We then were seated at a great table in dining room. Our server was Bobby. He was outstanding and really enhanced our experience. The food , service and ambience was excellent and will definitely be back soon. Jimmy and Bobby are a huge asset to your company.

    The manager went out of his way to make our family group of 8 comfortable. He had the loud music turned very low so we could have a conversation. The food was excellent! I had the best steak - 12 oz. prime sirloin perfectly cooked to medium with garlic mashed potatoes and side green salad. Others had wonderful crab cakes and miso glazed bass. At our request we had a table apart from others, but in general the tables are well spaced and the restaurant is spacious.
