Best of Boston

This venture from Deuxave’s Chris Coombs and Brian Piccini is billed as an “urban steak bistro”—shorthand for “not your grandparents’ steakhouse.” Start with daring small plates like oxtail croquets with red pepper mostarda, then tuck into an order of steak frites, which combines your favorite cut with a house-made sauce and heaping piles of greens, as well as fries served tableside from large copper bowls.
