Our culinary and beverage teams will be joined by experts from Wulf’s Fish and Boston Provisions to walk you through it all, course by course.

We opened our doors on Boylston Street in 2009 with a simple goal: bring an authentic French bistro to Boston. Almost seventeen years and a few menu evolutions later, that goal hasn’t changed, and being named Best French Restaurant by @bostoncommag is a great reminder of how far we’ve come - thank you. And thank you, always, to the incredible team that makes this the dining experience what it is.

@meetbostonusa Dine Out Boston kicks off this weekend, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome new guests to the table. Whether it’s for brunch on the patio or dinner upstairs in the dining room, we can’t wait to welcome you in.

Bon appétit.

I grew up at @grill23andbar, and it’s been my absolute joy to help carry forward the legacy that my father began more than four decades ago.

I’m grateful to our partners and team whose hard work, dedication, and care make Grill 23 what it is. And to our guests, thank you for allowing us to be part of your celebrations, traditions, and memories over the years.

Thank you to @bostonglobe for the kind words. We’re honored, humbled, and excited for what’s ahead.

Alice, you have given us a lifetime of happiness the past few years (with a couple of potential coronary’s along the way!). To think how far you’ve come from the NICU at Brigham, to Boston’s Children’s Hospital, and now to the end of your first school year, it just shows us all how life happens in the blink of an eye. To those who have been behind us every step of the way, we will always be thankful for your support. To our families, especially our parents, we are truly lucky to have living examples of what it means to be there for your family. And to my wife, Tori, you are the definition of kindness and the heart of our family…Alice is without question sitting where she is today because of your love and support, and we love you for always being there for our family! by @chrishimmel
