Perched on the mezzanine of The Connector at Winthrop Center in Downtown Boston, The Vermilion Club is Chef John Fraser’s modern take on a classic chophouse. The space exudes a vibrant energy, making it the ideal destination for all occasions. Named after Dale Chihuly's masterpiece sculpture above our 55-foot bar, The Vermilion Club embodies a design-forward ethos conceptualized by Thomas Juul-Hansen.

Chef Fraser's Mediterranean heritage shines through in the menu, featuring elevated steakhouse classics and Northeastern favorites. Beverage Director Amy Racine unveils an expansive cocktail lineup featuring over 70 meticulously curated cocktails, reintroducing classic cocktails with a contemporary twist. The pastry program is under the expert guidance of Chef Sofia Schlieben, and her large-format Stout Sticky Toffee Cake takes center stage.

Welcome to the club.

    We had a great experience at The Vermilion Club! The entire staff was very attentive and professional. Our waitress truly made our night feel special. We started off with the King Crab Tagliatelle after seeing many recommendations and it did not disappoint. Both steaks were tender and cooked to perfection, but lacked a bit of natural flavor. The Truffle Mac and Cheese was definitely a showstopper. Our martini’s were excellent. The atmosphere was quiet but did not take away from the ambience. The entire building was gorgeous, including the view from our table.

    The food and service here was outstanding. Totally what you’d expect from a restaurant by a Michelin-starred chef. The Japanese wagyu was a standout, as was the octopus and desserts. Plus it was fun to visit while the Mr. Pink art sculpture was on the window. Kenzie (server) is one of the most pleasant and helpful I’ve ever had at a restaurant. A+ all around.
