Boston Chops, the new 180-seat restaurant from the team behind Deauxave and dbar, flips the steak house concept on its end with an urban steak bistro appropriate for its South End location. The space, designed as a collaboration between proprietor Brian Piccini and studioTYAK, juxtaposes masculine and feminine elements to achieve a sexy meat-centric experience. Materials include blackened steel, polished chrome, slate tile, reclaimed oak, chocolate leather, red snakeskin, and butcher block. The 40-foot bar runs the length of the space and highlights the existing exposed brick wall. The dining room is divided into a number of smaller spaces that provide tremendous flexibility to accomodate a variety of party sizes and private events.
