A stylish departure from steakhouse tradition, The Fountain Room embraces Supper Club flair without the formality, blending fine dining with unabashed fun. Guests can indulge in timeless fare, including pickled relish trays, richly flavorful prime rib, classic side dishes, and house-made desserts, paired with strong cocktails and a well-curated wine list. The stunning space features velvet banquettes, glowing chandeliers, and a reel-to-reel machine that evokes a sense of nostalgia. Look for the historic Bottleworks hotel entrance and listen for sounds of mischief.

I don't think I have ever been to a restaurant that seems to be so utterly confused about its identity. The vinyl booth seats and attempt at art deco paint have a definite Americana Diner vibe... but the menu prices are $$$$. So the casual vibe is completely at odds with the high prices you would expect in fine dining. This dichotomy continues. The restaurant offers a Chef's Tasting Menu which starts with grilled cheese, immediately followed by beef tartare. Yet again, I have rarely met a person whose palate wants both the comfort of grilled cheese and the far less casual raw beef... or seen a Tasting Menu that attempts to appeal to all palates rather than having a unified theme. While our waitress was incredibly cheerful and competent- she was limited by the kitchen. Our request to accommodate a dietary preference was denied, our request to order just one item off the Tasting Menu was denied, and at the end of the night, we all agreed that the prices did not justify the mediocre quality of food; and since neither the ambience or high standard of care (the customer is always right) exist... we will not be back.

The tuna tartare was phenomenal. Enjoyed my filet and potato casserole. The only ‘miss’ was the roasted cauliflower. The service was good - a little slow but it was NYE.

It was a relaxed art deco atmosphere with a warm and sophisticated feel. Great views of Mass Avenue. The service was wonderful. We had the Brie Brûlée as an appetizer and it was incredible. I had the Sea Bass entree and it was cooked to perfection. The combination of flavors on this dish was second to none. My husband had the ribeye cooked medium rare and he was very happy with his pick! We look forward to going back!

My husband had the steak & eggs and said it was excellent. He was thrilled they had Cholula Sauce for his eggs! I had a simple Belgian waffle and fruit - it was perfect. Service was fantastic - our waitress was very kind, polite, and welcoming and provided recommendations for things to do in the city.
