Waltham Steak House, Flank, Closed

WALTHAM, MA — The steakhouse where eating with your hands was encouraged, Flank, is closed.

WAAF personality Greg Hill opened the restaurant featuring the "New American Beefsteak" inspired by a century-old boys' club, in 2016. Just two years later, an announcement from the Whole House Group dated April 18 indicates that it would close Flank "immediately" following a sale of both Flank in Waltham and 29 Sudbury (in Sudbury).

"Our whole team has loved operating both restaurants. The decision to sell was a dificult one to make, but we needed to be able to focus our resources on two new projects related to the Battle Road brand," said Greg Hill who is the managing partner of the industry group in the release.

David Alphonse and Richard Bracket of AB Hospitality Group will be taking over the restaurant after they renovate it.

The Facebook page lists the restaurant as closed, and the website is down.

The restaurant was situated at 1265 Main St.
