    A rare find in the suburbs, located in Reading and in a beautiful renovated former post office building. The ambiance is... well... amazing. Comfortable booths with flora everywhere and where the owners greet you at the door to escort you to your table. Appetizers and drinks to start. Great wine selection. This is for sure a steak place and aged beef and preparation are well worth the price. Fabulous dessert selection and delicious steaks. Business casual is the dress code and parking lot is next door. The owners clearly went full scale on the exquisite appointments and the staff is there to please you in every way!! No need to go into Boston for a great restaurant! Bon Appetite!!

    Wagyu Dumplings

    The food was outstanding and the service was top notch. We tried the goat cheese salad, calamari, lobster tacos and wagyu dumplings. We came for lunch but it was a holiday weekend so they were only serving the dinner menu. The only thing we weren't crazy about was the calamari. It was very good quality calamari but it was on the sweeter side for our personal taste.

    Heard so much about this place and really wanted to stay local so for my birthday the husband took me here. The ambiance is beautiful and aesthetically pleasing and modern but not in a weird way. Our server (whose name I have forgotten) was so lovely and friendly and attentive (not overly attentive). What made this special is going to come as a bit of a surprise I think. Never have I been to a restaurant where they have handed me a birthday card. Never. Except here. As a girl who doesn't have family here it's the small things that can move you to tears. This was the extra step that will list this place as one of my favorites. For starters we had the octopus was lovely, wish there were a few more potatoes on the plate as they had this lovely sauce on them. I had the filet and it was so delicious. The butter cake for desert. The meal was perfect and exactly what I wanted to enjoy. Will definitely be back!

    Real steak house steak looks like this. Rib eye at Pellana's vs the 1/2 inch thick steak I got at the 1917

    I want to clarify on my last review. The waiter misinformed us last time that the chicken parm was cooked in the deep fryer. The chicken parm is pan fried, all the time. Thank you to the manager for specifying this. We love this place!

    Post 1917 Steakhouse Review 136 Haven St, Reading, MA 01867 Nestled in a beautifully restored old post office in Reading, Post 1917 Steakhouse is a culinary gem brought to life by the visionary **Jason Carron. The Mains - **Chicken Parmesan**: The largest, juiciest chicken parm you'll ever see, topped with a sweet, flavorful tomato sauce--no pasta needed. Simple yet perfect. **10/10** - **Pan-Seared Scallops**: Paired with a velvety mushroom risotto and a bold coffee reduction, these six perfectly cooked scallops were well worth the $49 price tag. **10/10** - **Bone-In Ribeye**: Cooked to medium-rare perfection and complemented by a sauce flight featuring rosemary, blue cheese, demi-glace, marrow butter, and more. The demi-glace was a standout! **10/10** Pro tip: The sauce flight is a must especially if you are sharing with friends (I know its an extra $18 but just trust me). Starters to Share - **Lamb Lollipops**: Tender, juicy, and paired with roasted cashews and a refreshing mint glaze. Only complaint? Needed more mint glaze! **9/10** - **Crab Cakes**: These were packed with flavor, and the accompanying lobster sauce was so good I wanted to take it home! **10/10** Desserts - The chocolate cake was rich and decadent, while the snickerdoodle cake with ice cream** was a nostalgic yet elevated treat to end the meal. **10/10** From the warm ambiance to the masterfully executed dishes, every bite at Post 1917 feels like a celebration of culinary artistry. While the prices reflect its upscale nature, this is the perfect spot for a special night out on the North Shore. Food: 10/10 Ambiance: 9/10 Affordability: 3/10 (but worth it for a special occasion!)

    Perfect steak

    I've been here a couple of times and it's a wonderful restaurant. Beautiful space, very well decorated, feels very high end with being comfortable at the same time. There is a dining room and large bar area so plenty of seating options. I've always had a reservation here, but they do take walk-ins as well. Staff is very friendly and attentive. The highlights here are definitely the cocktails, steaks, and desserts. Cocktails are creative and well balanced, comparable if not better to ones I've had in Boston high end restaurants. Steaks are always perfectly cooked and I love to add on a sauce or butter which really enhances the steak. We had the key lime tart at our last visit and it was absolutely heavenly: light, sweet, buttery, with the perfect amount of lime. The misses are some appetizers and sides. The wagyu beef dumplings were ok but did not seem like a steak house appetizer, they were somewhat dry and one dimensional. I did enjoy the wedge salad, would definitely get again. I've had a few sides here, the corn is excellent, Brussels sprouts were ok, and the mashed potatoes were a little under-seasoned and cold. I will definitely be back though, the overall experience is amazing, great date night spot!

    Scallops
    Yanni P.

    Interior is very exquisite and it is a very nice location that used to be a post office. I enjoyed the scallops but everything else was just above average. The shrimp cocktail only had four shrimp and they were a bit tough. Service was great and I had a good time.

    As any frequent reviewer of my posts know, I like to periodically (annually) re-review my reviews…read moreas things can change. Sometimes businesses close, get bad, or sometimes, better. This is one of those posts as we've been back here a few more times since my original post. Yes, I know I've been bad about checking in, but I just had a son, so I've been a bit busy. Plus, since the Pandemic, we've been getting deliveries from here more than actually picking stuff up. Liquor Junction is open during this Pandemic as they are an essential service provider because keeping you liquored up is essential! This place has everything you need to make the household happy: whiskey and red wine. Well, they have other stuff that we dabble in like cigars, beers, and assorted liquors and wines. This is a pretty normal liquor store, not the fanciest digs, and maybe a bit bigger than your average corner liquor store. The selection is great. As an avid wine aficionado, I have been happily surprised by the selection and found several bottles that I've never encountered, including a Tempranillo I had never seen before. I love Tempranillos! Would I go back? Sure. The parking lot is wonky because it is in a cluster of a shopping center, but it's a nice little oasis. Plenty of places to park. Would I recommend this place? Yes. I would not recommend driving a long distance, unless they are holding an event, but if you're close, this should be your go-to spot.

    Their website said they carried a certain product, but since it was a 30 minute drive I called to…read moredouble check. Person who picked up the phone double checked for me, confirmed they had it. I drove there to find out they didn't have it and they suggested I buy something else.
