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 Caramelized Puff Pie takes center stage.

Welcome to the club.

    The ambiance was great. They had an extensive cocktail menu and a very creative menu, with options I have not seen at other steakhouses. The first two cuts of steak I tried to order were sold out, but I think maybe because of the storm yesterday there may have been unusual circumstances. The appetizers (we got the steak tartare and cobb salad) were delicious! We also got the veal, NY strip, baked potato and brussels. Do not skip the brussels, the best side dish I have had at a steak house. Unfortunately my steak was not great, however it was the actual quality/cut of the steak, the way it was prepared was great. Again, I think there was unusual circumstances with the steak as snake river farms is the best, and the manager was AMAZING about rectifying the issue. We would definitely love to come back and try it again with the full steak menu available or even just at the bar for their amazing atmosphere and cocktail menu.

    Sat at the bar, service was poor. We were basically ignored and had to ask to order drinks and food. The drinks were weak and the food was just ok, was expecting way better quality for the price.

    Great food at brunch. Excellent espresso martinis. Zero buzz. Perhaps more lively in the evening.

    The steaks were not very warm and mostly fat. For a steak house especially in the Finace district I expected a lot more. The lobster was fantastic and staff were great

    Andres A was a fantastic server. His support team was equally as amazing. A very thoughtful and professional group to take care of us! Would return for the service alone!

    The food was great, great atmosphere and great service. The drinks were also very tasty and would definitely recommend to go back. French onion dumplings were great, spiced Prime rib was great, along with the Manhattan, spicy margarita and white Russian.

    Applebees quality food for Capital Grille money. Slow service, low volume (full price) drinks, thoughtless menu, undercooked (bland) food. Examples: - Tiny martini glasses that were half filled - Salmon that was served raw with uncooked Brussels sprouts - Seasoned prime rib that wasn’t seasoned and half fat - Truffle Mac and cheese that more closely resembles overcooked pasta and mayonnaise Dinner for 4 was $500 before tip and the only way I’d go back is if it were for a refund.

    Great food, great decor. Service was a little slow but that was to be expected as the bar area was packed. Although expensive, the food on the market entrées list was well worth it.
