Lu's Cafe & Bakery 2 Lawrence St, Lawrence Cafe • $

“First time here and it did not disappoint at all! I got the Vietnamese iced mocha coffee with whipped cream and mocha drizzle. I also got the egg and cheese croissant with chicken sausage. The presentation was fantastic but taste was even better. Regardless of me being the only customer on site at the time, the service was excellent and extremely fast. I was in and out in less than 2 minutes with the food and drink. I would definitely go back and try all the other flavors for coffee and pastry!”

“Small space but great location with a view. Very friendly service. Really tasty drinks. Empanadas were tasty but filling a bit salty. Butternut squash soup was delicious. Chicken & broccoli with pesto was a large serving & tasty. Chicken Milanese wasn't crispy & the sauce made it soggy. I'd definitely go back to try other menu options.”

“Hidden gem in Lawrence! Bomb food, I’m obsessed with how they cook their rice. It’s so fluffy and soft; I pour their side of beans over it and I’m in heaven. I had their steak and chorizo tacos but will come back for their chicharron tacos (they were out when I was here). My husband gets the burrito every time and loves it.”

Boston Barbecue Inside Rolf's Pub, 39 Main Street, North Andover Barbecue • $$

“Have had BBQ all over the country, and unfortunately around the local area too. This place however, makes some really legit legit meats, with their St Louis dry rub style ribs being the shining star. Absolutely the best rack of ribs I've had in New England, meaty and smoky with a perfect pull off the bone. The chicken wings as well are surprisingly excellent, super crispy and offered with traditional southern flavorings. Love the moist cut of their briskets, just great S&P seasoning. For sides, the fried pickles and potato salad are awesome, but I personally really like the dirty rice the most, I just wish they gave you more.”

“This historic pastry, bakery and pizzeria by the slice, with over a century of tradition, is renowned for its frozen pizzas and unique sweet tomato sauce. However, for an Italian palate, there are some questionable choices: the addition of sugar in tomato sauce and the idea of ​​freezing pizza are considered almost sacrilegious, not to mention pineapple on pizza, mentioned here to emphasize the culinary heterodoxy. These choices negatively affect my rating. Despite this, customers seem to appreciate these peculiarities, even if perhaps they are the same ones who don't disdain ketchup on pasta. I respect the preferences of others and I congratulate the family who have been able to preserve their business for more than a century.”

“I got this for takeout. This is next to the noodle shop I went all the time. I wanted to get some takeout for later. First, they speak only Spanish. If you don’t speak Spanish, you will need Google Translate. But because there are only a few options, you can just point at the food and order. I ordered yellow rice, pork, and ribs. It came with a salad for about 10. Pretty good portion size. I think the pork rib is good, tender and moist with good flavor. The pork is a little dry but eatable. Flavor for both items are on point. The yellow rice is very tasty. You can eat that by itself. This place is great for a quick lunch. I will probably go back if I want to eat quickly.”

Jessy's Place 60 Island St unit 134, Lawrence Coffee Shops • $

“I had the pleasure of discovering a true gem hidden inside an old textile factory in Lawrence, MA: Jessy's Posticino. This charming little place is run with passion and skill, evident in every detail and in the warm welcome you receive upon entering.The furnishings are meticulously cared for, mixing rustic and modern elements in a harmonious way, creating a welcoming and familiar atmosphere. It's clear that each piece has been chosen with love and attention, helping to create a unique and inviting environment.The presentation of the food is equally impressive, maintaining a traditional style that allows customers to visually explore the offering before making their choice. This interactive experience adds a personal and genuine touch to the entire process.Speaking of the food, the egg, sausage or bacon sandwich served in a soft brioche is simply divine. It stands out clearly from any other similar sandwich I've tried in the last year, with its rich, balanced flavors elevating the dining experience to a new level.Sitting along the corridor of the former factory, which has been beautifully preserved and furnished, offers a unique experience that mixes relaxation and inspiration. The environment reflects the history of the place, maintaining the essence of the textile factory and at the same time introducing contemporary elements that stimulate a deep connection with the industrial past of the city.Despite its small size, Il Posticino di Jessy is a monument to quality and taste. It proves that greatness lies not in physical space, but in the ability to create memorable experiences and exceptional dishes. I highly recommend visiting this amazing place, which will surely leave a lasting impression on your heart and palate.”

Back then for him, it was Pabst Blue Ribbon beer and Royal Feast potato chips. He worked at the Sealtest Plant in N. Lawrence and would bring ice cream down for the members on Thursdays.

“Wow this place blew us away. My friends and I were traveling and happened upon this sandwich place as a quick hop off the highway. The entrance is not obvious, you need to go into Building 2 to find it, but BELIEVE ME it is worth it. We had a plethora of sandwiches, the Reuben, the club, BLT -- all delightful, huge portions and the worker was so friendly and brought us out complimentary cookies! Would definitely stop again.”

“In my opinion Lee Chen has the best Chinese cuisine on the east coast. No, I don't own the place. I was introduced by an in-law to Lee Chen 18 years ago and have been going back weekly every since.The dining room eat in experience is as close to 5 star service as a small Chinese restaurant can be with very attentive and friendly staff and food that is cooked to order served hot and is consistently delicious.The take out is also a wonderful experience for your taste buds, I highly recommend Lee Chen anytime your tongue gets a craving for some REALLY GOOD Chinese food!”

“Oh my lanta!!! This restaurant is amazing! The atmosphere is welcoming, the service is immaculate, and the food oh my gosh!!!! DELICIOUS! We arrived around noon on a Sunday, at first it was empty but quickly began busy by 1. Our food still came out really quick and our server Julissa was very attentive and brung another round of our drinks when our food was ready. They were interested in our feedback and wanted to make sure we were having a great experience, which we absolutely did! Definitely recommend! They have space for couples and big groups. I got the churrasco y huevo (steak eggs and home fries), my partner got the tres golpes benedicto (poached eggs, fried salami and cheese, mango, and hollandaise sauce). For desert we got the cuatro leche”

“This historic pastry, bakery and pizzeria by the slice, with over a century of tradition, is renowned for its frozen pizzas and unique sweet tomato sauce. However, for an Italian palate, there are some questionable choices: the addition of sugar in tomato sauce and the idea of ​​freezing pizza are considered almost sacrilegious, not to mention pineapple on pizza, mentioned here to emphasize the culinary heterodoxy. These choices negatively affect my rating. Despite this, customers seem to appreciate these peculiarities, even if perhaps they are the same ones who don't disdain ketchup on pasta. I respect the preferences of others and I congratulate the family who have been able to preserve their business for more than a century.”
