We came here for a guys night out dinner. Everything was very good. Seafood tower appetizer tasted fresh. Salads were tasty. Steaks were cooked perfect, but maybe lacked a bit of seasoning. Overall, a nice experience. read more

I've been living near Burlington for a few years now, and somehow only recently found this gem. We went out for Mother's Day and ordered way too much food. Absolutely everything was amazing. The Steak Tartare was the best I've ever had! Great service, clean, relaxing. Highly recommend! read more

Ok I'm writing a live review. 4:56 pm and I was outside 4:57 they unlocked the door let me in first come , first serve. Suzwas my server bartender. 5:03 pm I ordered my first vodka martini and they had my brand. I ordered the lobster mac & cheese with the boneless ribeye, medium rare. 5:26 pm the food arrived. The river was delicious, but I did find a little fatty. I'm not gonna lie even for a ribeye. The lobster mac & cheese was perfect. The noodles were perfect. Just the right amount of lobster not to overpower the cheese. The maple crème brûlée I ordered at 5:40 showed up at 5:45 PM and it was heated by the kitchen. It was perfect. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, I would give this wonderful establishment a five star for what it is. It's not a big room. It's well decorated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food is spot on and they even had my favourite vodka, which is not regularly available even though it is. Another Great Steak House that is Spot on. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I started at the bar because it's first come first serve and the place was sold out which is not unusual for this place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Truly, the food was to sell at 4.5. I'm gonna give them a five star based on the server attitude server having my Preferred vodka, which they ran out of by the way, which was too bad Overall, what a great little place definitely bring your date. Enjoy your date. Have a great meal. This is the truth on this establishment !!! read more

For even younger than they were food is superb as well as the service. It's not inexpensive, but well worth it.

We choose EB Strong's for a client dinner while visiting Burlington for meetings. We had a group of 13, and were seated with a reservation in the private room, and everything was perfect. We had several servers checking in on us and we didn't need a thing, ever! Across the group we tried lots of dishes including the filet, surf and turf, crab cake, calamari, shrimp cocktail, salads, and chocolate martinis for dessert. Everyone enjoyed their food, and we had a great time. read more

EB Strong's - Filet - New American Near Me - Burlington, Vermont

First, let's be clear. This is not Morton's of Chicago. So go in knowing that you will get a nice experience but it's not that. The bartenders are very knowledgeable and the staff is top notch friendly and the meal was paced nicely. Steak was cooked exactly to order but a tad under seasoned. The calamari app was a little wilted and I'm not sure the sauce on top did that any favors. The mashed potatoes were very nice and creamy. Mushrooms were unremarkable but good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall this is a nice place and so convenient to tourists and locals alike.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Come in for a drink and get a feel for it. I think you will like it too. read more

This is a great place! We came here for an anniversary dinner and they did not disappoint. The cheese was good. The steak was amazing. The potatoes were creamy and flavorful. And we topped everything off with their creme brûlée and mudslide pie - both of which were very tasty. Our server made the evening special through her kindness and wonderful attention while providing service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was pleasant and reminded me of an old Kansas City style steakhouse - this is absolutely a compliment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend! read more

EB Strong was absolutely flawless! We almost didn't go but are so glad we did. We had glazed Filet Mignon (8 oz). It came with mashed potato and Steak Tip Salad. Cooked to perfection, tender, tasty. Price was fair and service was impeccable. read more

Have had many dining experiences at EBs and have had 0 complaints! I mostly get steak and they cook to perfection every time. Also some of the best cocktails around. read more

All the food, ironically, except the steak, was very good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was excellent and the vibe is very comfortable and warm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Drinks were good as well. So, I am recommending, but maybe not necessarily for the New York strip steak. I'll definitely go back and try something else. The lobster Mac & Cheese, chicken dish, sides and even the chocolate cake for dessert were all very good. read more

My rib eye was grey. No grill marks or crust. My side of spiced butter didn't even melt on the steak when applied. Steak was warm. JC read more

Outstanding food and great steaks. Service was great but it was odd getting charged for a little extra horseradish sauce when we just got a $75 steak... read more

Outstanding!!! We're Out of Staters however, we come to Burlington once a year for a few weeks and we always eat at this restaurant a few times. I believe I might've been one of the first to eat there when they first opened, it's been that long, but I'll tell you, the food is fabulous the service is excellent and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the restaurant is very comfortable[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the new addition is gorgeous[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. We've gotten to know many people that work there and the owners are great people. I personally can't say enough about how great this restaurant is you have to experience it. I've never had a bad experience. I've always had great food and I've always had great service. This is definitely a restaurant I would eat at more if I lived in town. read more

The food was great. Tops, almost NYC steakhouse, yet the charm of Burlington Vermont instead. Cooked correctly, to a perfect medium rare, which is at the limits to how much a steak should be cooked. Sides are often family style, order a couple things to share with everyone. The cocktail menu was good, and the maple Old Fashioned is one of the better of the genre I've had, of the various places that do that these days. The maple crème brûlée was arguably the biggest disappointment of an otherwise solid spread, with very little maple flavor coming through. Tasted mostly like a standard vanilla custard. Maple can be tricky to cook or bake with, but it seemed absent in this case. Oh, the bread and butter served to start was amazing though. The service was good. Burlington in this newly post pandemic area is still struggling to get staff, but the wait staff were courteous and prompt. Actually, I felt like our server was the perfect amount of interested. Not overdone, but attentive as needed. The ambiance is what I'd call "modern steakhouse". Linen tablecloths, but not overdone red velour coverings like of yesteryear, where you'd expect to see business dealings. This was more clean and modern, but also not the overly loud industrial loft motif that some places have. Can't afford to eat here all the time, but based on this experience will definitely plan to return for other special occasions at least. read more

Generally come here often and was with a group of 7. One of the meals was wrong and everyone had eaten and we had to wait for the mistake. When management was confronted it was questioned whether or not the late plate was eaten. Absolutely not the point. The point was that the meal was wrong and was brought out late. Again, generally when we come it has always been good but on this occasion, we were very disappointed because of the service and management claiming that they had never had someone ask for a comp. Isnt the customer the one you try to make sure is satisfied? read more

This meal was not good. The escargot were rubbery and lukewarm. They were served in a bed of onions and just didn't taste great. The shrimp cocktail was fine but it would be difficult to screw up shrimp cocktail. The preparation for the rack of lamb was just weird. The lamb itself was very bland (didn't taste the mustard panko crust) and the polenta and greens were just a sour, strange combo. The chimichurri did not belong. The best things we ate were the shrimp cocktail and the complimentary bread. Service was okay. Place was loud. We will not return. read more

Superb dining experience. Service was fantastic. My meal was the pork chop Oscar. Absolutely delish. Asparagus and mashed with it. Great. Maple bacon Brussels sprouts. Fantastic. And again, great service. read more

The service was super friendly, and she completely spoiled my husband. He had ordered a Manhattan with a 'big cube' but was totally fine with the ice, but she INSISTED on swapping it out. We also appreciated how knowledgeable she was not only about the menu, but also to 'talk steak' and Kansas City with my husband. The wine recommendation was spot. on. and I appreciated the back story to it!! The food, gosh, where to begin? The calamari was light and not greasy at all, the tomato tapenade was the perfect dip for it, so yummy. My 'oscar filet' absolutely stole the show....not only did the chef deftly cook it to a medium without overdoing it, the MOUND of crab and lobster on top was a perfect compliment. The freshly mashed potatoes were perfectly nuanced with garlic and the hollandaise perfectly complimented the broccolini without overwhelming it. My husband ordered the creamed spinach, so good. the spinach was wilted but not slimy..it supported the perfect touch of cream sauce well. We barely had room for dessert, but that did not stop us from splitting the mud pie. the mix of caramel and fudge was a delight and the ice cream 'filled in all the cracks' nicely! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Thank you for providing three hours of escape and celebration![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Stopped in for dinner last night with a party of four. We made a reservation in advance and were seated immediately, even after arriving a few minutes early. We got a table in a little nook where we were the only table which was nice and private. Initially, it took the server a little while to greet us. We ordered two sodas, an amaretto sour and a beer for drinks. Our water glasses were kept full throughout the meal. Calamari was amazing. A little differently prepared than I am used to but it was excellent. I would totally get it again. I also had a wedge salad which was good but they are never extraordinary, I just really like them. There was complimentary bread which was fresh, right out of the oven. The salted butter and the oil/vinegar mixture was good. I ordered the 8 oz filet while the other three in my party got the prime rib which was on special. I ordered well done and I feel like it was cooked medium. My husband ordered medium and it appeared to be rare. Everyone still enjoyed their meals but it seemed that all of the steaks were a temperature or two off. We ordered a side of asaparagus and a side of brussel sprouts. I loveeee brussel sprouts and were looking forward to them. They were rather hard and didn't seem cooked properly. Honestly, I debated sending then back but my husband kept munching on them stating they "weren't the worst". I just couldn't eat them. As much as I wanted to order dessert, I was overly full and exhausted! If I were to go back I would overly specify the temperature I wanted my steak in hopes it would come out properly. read more

The complementary bread and butter was very tasty. I ordered the mussels for my appetizer, which were very flavorful and well-seasoned. The broth for the mussels was simply fantabulous with very flavorful chorizo. For my entrée, I enjoyed the rack of lamb with spinach. The lamb was very tender and incredibly delicious. The texture and seasoning of the lamb were phenomenal. I had ginger beer for my beverage. For my dessert, I had the maple crème brûlée, which truly satiated my craving for sweets. read more

We have never had anything but an excellent meal, cocktail or service at this Church Street restaurant. Sit at the bar for full service if they are booked. Better yet plan ahead and grab a reservation for more privacy. read more

The first place we ate in Burlington - wanted to love it, but it fell flat. The food was not great (the Escargot was prepared differently... which is fine except it wasn't that warm and a bit chewy), and the shrimp cocktail was fine. The Seared Ahi Tuna Salad had huge chunks of tuna with a sort of smoky preparation I wasn't expecting, and no real flavor otherwise. Even the wantons they served it with tasted more like pita chips and lacked any salt or flavor other than oil. The best thing we had was the complimentary bread and butter, which was delicious. The mashed potatoes were good too. Overall, it was quite loud (we were seated next to a large party) and expensive for what it was. read more

Great steak. The Kansas City Strip was cooked perfectly! The Cesar salad was top notch. Only hang up was the maple old fashion. Just tasted like straight bourbon. read more

EB Strong is your go-to spot if you're seeking a crash course in patience. The service was akin to participating in an impromptu game of hide-and-seek with the staff. Finding them proved more challenging than locating Waldo in a sea of stripes. If you enjoy your meals seasoned with chaos and served with a side of suspense, this is the place for you. Just remember to bring a good book, a backup snack, and perhaps a magician to make the wait disappear--because, at EB Strong, time takes on a life of its own. read more

I have been four times and twice my group has had to send steak back for being overcooked (myself included). Good service....I have had good food there, but it hasn't been consistent. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated in a comfortable booth & had a great meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Cocktails were delicious. We shared a crab cake appetizer that was tasty, and each had steaks.

EB Strong's is a hidden Gem! I recently took my client out to this restaurant and couldn't be happier. The staff was very attentive to drinks and food. Ambiance was very businesslike/ casual. They had a nice selection of wine and plenty of food options of steak and fish. My favorite part was starting out with oysters and a cheese board from local vendors. Matthew our server was very knowledgeable on the menu and he pace every course just right. My clients were very impressed with EB Strong's. They live locally and never heard of it until our time last night. They plan to return in the near future. Our dishes includes the Scallops, Filet Mignon and Brussels Sprouts(which were amazing). read more

Never disappoints! Great service, quiet vibe, phenomenal food. Recommend the Penner Ash Pinot Noir, Filet (bone in if they have it on special), Creamed Spinach and Brussels. Also a huge fan of their dirty martini (I get mine with Bart Hill Vodka) with blue cheese stuffed olives. read more

I rarely give 5 Star reviews but everything from the service to the food was fantastic. The NY Strip and Bone-In Ribeye we had were perfectly seated and seasoned on the outside and melt in your mouth tender on the inside. Our drinks were never empty and our server just perfectly timed interjecting our conversation and making sure we were taken care off. Gem of a restaurant and I wish we lived closer to eat here more frequently! read more

Yelp cracks me up. In Burlington for work and was looking for a local steakhouse. This place was great and checked all the boxes - sat at the bar, great cocktails, bartenders could not be more friendly, NY Strip cooked perfectly, mushroom good, Brussels- best I've ever had. GREAt meal and at a reasonable price. If you are looking for 200 day dry aged or Wagu/Smaugu steaks then skip this place. If you want a great meal in Burlington, then try this place. read more

When at a steakhouse eat steak and so I did. Excellent filet and the truffle fries, so good! The squash soup which was more puréed squash was so flavorful and almost a meal by itself. My vegetarian friend really enjoyed her beet salad with chèvre. We topped off with some local cheeses and the maple crème brûlée and ate every bite. Great wine selection, alcohol selection and a vibrant bar scene as well if you prefer that over table service. Place is very clean and an enjoyable space to be in. Definitely worth a visit. read more

We visited this steak house on a stormy Saturday night. We parked in back of the building. Since the website said that our parking would be validated inside, we paid the $22 to park. We went inside the restaurant but they said they could not reimburse the parking fee because it is a private parking lot and that we should have come in and gotten a paper to put on our dash first before paying. We were seated with almost no one else in the restaurant. We waited almost 15 min. Before anyone came to give us menus. The food was delicious but expensive. We paid over $200 for our meals, including $22 for parking. Our server was outstanding, helpful and sympathetic. However the service was extremely slow, almost three hours from beginning to end. read more

On the pricier side, but service is excellent and food is awesome! We went here for a birthday celebration and we loved it. Scallops, skirt steak and the brownies were Awesome! Will definitely be back. read more
