Restaurants in Dedham

“Best Mediterranean food I've had in decades. Everything was delicious. Couldn't be better. I had the kofra kebab plate, ground beef with lamb, rolled and fried, salad, hummus, garlic sauce and tabouli. Look it up. I'm probably not touching it all the great aspects of it. Every part of it was exceptional, full of freshness and taste, each part distinctive in taste and presentation from another part. Not the usual commodification of Mediterranean food present in most imitative restaurants. So many spots are predictable, bland, food feeling like it sat around waiting to be served and unremarkable in every way. Not here. A full size salad, bright, light tastes with just the right amount of a delicate dressing. Not just the typical hunks of greens and ingredients thrown together with no soul and doused in some soybean oil based imitation.It was not the thick flour pita pocket that despite rips apart when you try to lightly stuff it with your salad or grape leaves or tabouli, despite being the thickness of baseball glove leather. This pita pocket was as thin as it could be, not the chewy baseball glove we usually get, yet completely resilient. It held everything I stuffed into it.”

“Every time I’ve gotten Johnny pockets I get service with a smile and delicious food! I’ve tried multiple different sandwiches and I’ve never been disappointed.”

“We had a wonderful Valentine's dinner! Our waiter Tony and the entire waitstaff were Excellent! The meal was amazing, everything was perfectly prepared. Thank you for such a great evening!”

“I had a great first experience with Crumbl cookies. The cookies were all delicious and the cookie cheesecake was divine. I would absolutely order from Crumbl again. I loved it.”

“Beautiful dining room. I ordered take out this evening using the Toast App. I mistakenly added a $500 tip instead of a $5 tip because the order went through too fast. I called and explained what happened. The manager called me right back and assured me that he would fix it before closing out. He was so kind, even though they were busy. The food was excellent and the waitress was so kind in packing one dish separately due to a peanut allergy. We will definitely be frequent flyers here.”

“Hibachi to go was delicious. A very solid dinner option, with everything cooked beautifully, fresh ingredients, and generous portions. Restaurant was clean, with a well managed open kitchen. We will certainly be back.”

“This is our favorite Thai place. Food and service are amazing. The pineapple fried rice is the best I've ever had. Portions are very large. Staff are very warm and friendly. Would highly recommend this restaurant.”

“I only wish I had ordered from here sooner! The Turkey Gobbler was absolutely amazing, and my son really loved the four cheese grilled cheese. Delicious comfort food!”

“The food is OK-not bad, not great. The miso ramen broth is a little watery and salty at the same time (this ain’t the traditional long simmering bone broth based ramen soup) and the sliced pork (tonkatsu) was a bit tough. The lunch specials are a good price but the taste will make you wonder if it actually is. Tempura isnt the traditional Japanese batter, it’s got the premade thick layer you get from frozen pieces at the supermarket. Sushi rolls are as good as any other neighborhood sushi place. If you’re satisfied with general Asian food this is a decent spot to grab a casual meal, esp lunch. If you’re a discerning diner who can differentiate between real Japanese cuisine vs other styles, you’ll come away a little deflated. The service was great, servers were very nice. The music was really loud and started to grate on me after awhile as it repeated.”

“Best place and best people”

“Just Ordered One Of The Best Italian Subs I’ve Had In A Long Time.. First Timer There But They’ll Get To Know Me, Waiting To Try Their Take-Out Dinners And Such..”

“Excellent food. Excellent specials. Caprese salad so fresh. All of the salads are a meal in themselves. Best chicken parm. Best chicken Marsala. Steak tips so tender with garlic mashed and sautéed spinach. Bartenders are so friendly and fun. Wait staff are awesome. Get there early. Fills up fast! Tommy and Mollie. Joe and Lori are greatest bartenders. Jocelyn and Jess and Paola are best waitresses”

“Stopped in on a whim and had a great meal. I was with my mother and my daughter all of us enjoyed the place. There was a little something for everyone even had a cocktail; we will be back.!”

“Adrian was the best service we have had in a long time. Great place ask for him if you want great service. Will be back.”

“Come after your gym session, and you’ll be greeted by the friendliest people and receive the best service imaginable. The staff also makes incredible smoothies—the best I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this Planet Fitness location to anyone in the same plaza looking for a post-workout treat. 10/10”

“Every once and awhile you come across a business that has it all - an outstanding product, genuinely wonderful people and an approach to customer service that restores your faith in humanity. Cafe Fresh Bagel delivers on all of those fronts. The bagels are superb and the variety, freshness and flavor of the wares on display is unsurpassed. The people who run the establishment are the kind of individuals that serve as the epitome of what entrepreneurs should be - hardworking, dedicated and thoughtful. Honestly, I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else for my bagels…!”

“Best food around!!! Great service and price!!!”

“Had the flat iron Benny, amazing!”

“Good food, friendly staff, affordable for lunch and catering”

“The best pizza in Town . Highly recommended. Delicious and The people are so nice 👍”

“First time but not the last. Enjoyed a shared crispy calamari appetizer. Lunch was the Korean BBQ Cheesesteak. Spicy but not overwhelming. Service was most attentive by Roland. Hostess was most personable. See you all again soon.”

“Old world New England charm. no frills, real food, real people, real service, the kind that doesn't exist anymore. May God bless us with this establishment for the rest of eternity.”

“We are from out of state and stopped in because we were all hungry. The food was amazing the service was amazing! The staff were very personable welcoming and wonderful to interact with! If we are ever in town again we will be back!”

“Good coffee, good vibes, cozy seating and plugs for your stuff. The pain au chocolat looked a little sad and none of their other pastries were calling out to me so I just stuck with my latte.

This is inside Legacy Place - parking was busy in the afternoon/evening. Noisy, but not too loud. I was still able to take a casual phone call without the listener having too much background noise. There is a workspace/conference room you can also rent out by the hour. They're open fairly late compared to other cafes in the area (8pm), so that was appreciated.”

“What’s wrong with this picture not covered dried out where I can coughing on mention that to the bartender don’t care”

“Ordered delivery for New Years and it was fantastic!!! The service was great, in time and friendly. The food was hot and fresh, probably the best I’ve ever had. Their crab rangoons and Singapore rice noodles are the best I’ve ever had.”

“I love the ice mocha and the muffins Today they had 80’s music 🎶 playing”

“We got a menu for them in the mail today and what made me order was the taco pizza. ive been looking for years for somewhere that made it. its absolutely delicious! However we are disappointed that the $13 chicken wing dinner only came with 5 wings. A ton of rice but not much chicken. I also didnt like how the driver never had me sign the receipt authorizing the credit card payment. i didnt even get a receipt showing how much the order was. The food is very good though. we ordered several things. ill definitely be getting this taco pizza more”

“I ordered the Big Burger and Strawberry Love shake and they were delicious. Staff member behind the counter was very helpful. I ordered from the app and had a little trouble getting to the payment screen and staff member showed me how. Food was prepared quickly and was hot. I noticed another customer didn't want to use the tablet to order and staff member took her order at the register. I read other reviews criticizing everything I found perfect. Updated from previous review on 2025-09-11”

“Dave Dj'd our wedding on 9th August 2024 he was brilliant and kept our guests up on their feet. Thankyou for your part in our special day 👍”

“My first time visiting this restaurant. Did not intend to come in but wanted something quick before bowling across the parking lot at kings. You can smell a combination of all the wonderful variations of cupcakes they have. It is clean and has seating available too! They offer hot and cold cupcakes. Sweet and savory. I tried the chicken and waffles cupcake , the cheese pizza cupcake and the pulled bbq chicken pizza cupcake. ALL of them were good ! Would definitely recommend. Forgive me for the half eaten photo of the pulled chicken cupcake I was half way through it before remembering to take a photo!!”

“One of the most flavorful meals I’ve ever indulged in! Love the vibes there, and that everything is healthy and organic. Impressed that the prices weren’t too high either! Was just traveling through Salem on vacation in September & glad I found this place. Highly recommend. (Pictures are of the Rainbow Harvest bowl and Blue Magic Smoothie) - which had a kick to it, but tasted like Christmas.”

“Great food good beer I’m very family friendly people one of my favorite spots”

“Great atmosphere. Fun place to have drink and meet nice people.”

“Went bowling at Legacy Place in Dedham and had a really fun time. The staff were great, everything was well organised, and they provided food and drinks which made it an easy, relaxed outing.

It was also reasonably priced for what you get, and the overall atmosphere was lively without being chaotic.

Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area and want a straightforward, enjoyable night out.”

“We have been to this location many times. The food is great and on par with what you except at any friendly toast location.

A bit loud especially if there are a lot of kids there, but you can always talk, so not too bad.

The problem is that you always have to have a reservation or you will wait around 20 to 40 minutes and even with a reservation you will be lucky if you get seated within 5 minutes if your party is 4 or more people.
Also parking here is insane unless you go direct into the parking garage and head to the second floor directly and aren't very picky about getting a spot near an elevator.

The other thing that is they don't bring you water when you sit and it's also hard sometimes to find your server for a refill. That is a thing I always look for at a good restaurant.

But other than those minor things, its a reliable place to go for brunch or lunch at legacy place as long as you are prepared. That's why we keep coming back.”

“We loved the Pad Thai. Ask for it to be less spicy if you need that. But truly, very good. The wings are great. My niece says the house noodles are really really good!”

“Great food and large portions!”

“wonderful customer care, friendly and attentive. casual place,old fashion look, love it! the food was delicious.”

“We had a problem with the online ordering for party today (outdoor) but the staff at Dedham took care of everything did a great job we had our food when we had originally planned - everything fresh , delicious and enjoyed by all. Thank you!!!”

“Never disappointed! Both locations always get it right”

“First time buyer and I have to say, hands down, the BEST chicken pot pie I have ever eaten. Don’t change one thing about it!”

“Great place for NY Jet Fans to enjoy some great food, drinks and talk about the need for an offensive line, another wide receiver, drafting a future starting QB, and more.”

“My family loves this restaurant. We often have our dinner there.
This time, the fries were reheated until I got back home, and they were all hard and dry.
And every time we need to check and request our salad sauces.”

“Crepes were amazing! Loved it, and will be back many times!!”

“Another great meal at this wonderful chain. Our dumplings and brussel sprouts were cooked perfectly and my sweet potato burger was delicious. My husband's bolognese was a bit too salty and after we told our waitress, the manager, John, came over to thank us for letting them know. Always trying to make sure food is the way it should be! Drinks were quite good and we didn't have room for dessert. We can always count on Tavern in the Square for a wonderful experience.”

“I love it in this place, my favorite is chicken kabob salad, good portion and very fresh vegetables... I can say that this place has the beast roast beef in MA. Thanks guys...”
