The Stockyard Restaurant

This is a great place to eat and I have been here more than once. The food was good with my husband and a friend. Our server Michael was friendly and helpful and often checked to see that we had everything we needed from refills to making sure our meals were fine (which they were and very delicious). The atmosphere was comfortable with music too that included instruments and there was a fireplace with a fire going on during this crisp fall night. We enjoyed ourselves and will definitely return either with other friends or give this restaurant as a recommendation to anyone else who would ask as a suggestion.

The Stockyard keeps going to the bitter end! First, great parking lot. It's huge. It also feels quieter, and belies how close you are to Boston. The restaurant is also huge, I think I counted three dining rooms and a huge bar. I got there on the later side, and even as people were slowly filing out the servers kept going with food and drinks. Fantastic staff!The portions were huge. My burger was delicious and well seasoned. The fries were a bit of a mix in crisp, but if I lived in the area it would have been enough for lunch the next day.

The food was delicious! I ordered my steak medium rare but it was closer to medium. The service was good as well, the waiter made sure that we were enjoying our meal at all times. Outdoor seating ambiance was nice but it is very weather dependent. Would go again :)

This place is so underrated!!! From the outside, it's not much to look at. I can see people overlooking it ... as some outdated steakhouse, especially compared to the posh steakhouses downtown. However, this place is really great!!! Such a homey and welcoming vibe.The menu is pretty large ... with a variety of offerings. Prices are competitive for this type of place and THANK YOU SO MUCH for not making everything "a la carte". I hate that!!! Like whyyyyy??? It's so unnecessary!!! Do places really make more profit bu doing that ... or are they just making it unpleasant for customers for no reason???Anywayyyyy, I usually get the ribs here. They're so tender and delicious, as well as such a good value. The French onion soup is probably the best in the area. No joke!!! This last time, we got a steak to share, which was really yummy, but the MVP of this last visit was the waffle pudding dessert. LIKE PLEASE RUN AND GO GET THIS!!! Um ... the only thing I wouldn't recommend would be the shrimp appetizer. Those things are NOT jumbo and not worth the price. Sorry not sorryThe service has always been amazing. I've sat at the bar and tables. Bartenders are pretty attentive. Every time I get a table, I am served by Hannah. So not complaining cuz she is amazing!!! Wouldn't mind having her every time. P.S, their takeout is just as good as dining in. So nice to see a place be consistently amazing!!'

The Stockyard is like finding a hidden treasure on the edge of Boston--always a pleasant surprise! Stepping inside feels like stepping into a chic-embrace (is that a thing?), with the scent of delicious food welcoming you in. We snagged seats at the bar on a bustling Saturday night as we always door, where the bartenders whipped up a round cocktails that were the kicker to the meal. Service was decent, though they were hustling to keep up with the crowd.Now, let's talk lil'feast we ordered. I you bar chairs, we started with French onion soup and clam chowder was flavorful on a cold night, and the wedge salad is our goto. The main event--salmon and a "hefty" tomahawk steak--hit the spot (we're celebrating), though we could've done with a bigger cut of steak. I mean I'm no Fred Flintstones, my hero. Meh, I'm fat enough! Still, I can taste it a month later. And don't even get me started on the waffle bread pudding & chocolate cake desserts with nice decaf cappuccinos--it was heavenly! Gosh I was FULL.Despite a few minor bumps, the place was BUSY--Stockyard steak-house remains a top-notch spot for a hearty meal for us. With its cozy atmosphere (in a big room), solid food, and friendly service, it's a true local gem. We'll be back.

Went on a Tuesday night. A hostess stepped in and made good for the rude host who first greeted us. Waitstaff was amazing. We got a tomahawk that was cooked to perfection. It was truly divine with only one little issue. About a fifth of the meat was pure fat. But that fat provided the most delicious tasting meat of what was there, so we considered it a balanced take away. Mac and cheese (outstanding!) and grilled asparagus (yummy char) as sides were plentifully. Drinks were great. Dessert was a special that night of Boston Cream Pie. Get it if it's on the menu. All in all most enjoyable atmosphere, waitstaff, and scrumptious meal. Too bad that host cost them the fifth star.

Came here for my husband and my anniversary -- overall, a great dinner experience and we had a lovely night! Service was good and the ambiance was quaint. We were told this place had the best prime rib. Not sure if it was overhyped for us, but we didn't love the food we ordered for the price compared to a few other places we have in mind. We got the clam chowder, a salad, prime rib, steak tips, and key lime pie. All were decently good, but would not say they were noteworthy.

Solid steakhouse! It gives very old school steakhouse vibes. We dropped in because I was craving steak and saw that they also had a large parking lot. We arrived at around 4:30pm on a Saturday and they only had bar seating available (there were a few reserved tables that had no customers and the us and other patrons that arrived with us both finished our meals before those reservations were sat - perhaps it would be a good idea to open those up to tables of 2?). There's also specials posted in the back - there was minestrone, fried clams, and Boston creme pie that day.We definitely overordered because I was hungry and underestimated the portions. Pricing was very fair - it's not as nice as other steakhouses but you get a lot of food. I'll also say service was lacking, but we were at the bar so take that with a grain of salt. It seemed like the bartenders were more interested in the regulars and often avoided us. We had to flag their attention multiple times and never had our drinks or water refilled. French onion soup - great! On the saltier side but that works for me. Good depth of flavor.Clam chowder - also fantastic! I didn't expect much but it was a satisfying cup that was rich and had good proportion of clam and potato.Wedge salad - I'm converted! I got it as a side to our steak and it was perfectly balanced. Prime rib and ribeye were cooked to medium rare - we got the bourbon peppercorn sauce. I thought it was okay but my husband enjoyed it. The house steak sauce is on the sweeter side, very barbecue-ish. The house made key lime pie had a nice tang to it - the texture seemed eggier than most. Our bill totaled to around $200. Hope to return - hopefully snagging a table would result in better service.

The beef always cooked to perfection. The Manhattans are the best!!!Every time I am in Boston I go.

After coming back a few times, I think this place deserves 5 stars! The move is to get the 32 oz tomahawk that comes sliced and includes 2 sides. For $95 it's a great deal! The food comes out very fast and always tastes good.
