Restaurants in Medford

“Always a great experience!”

“Being 100% Italian also the food was amazing! They started us off with real EVOO to dip Our bread in with salt & pepper you can tell the EVOO was straight from Italy. I started with the arancini special which was sausage and saffron sitting in a white creamy sauce that was absolutely delicious. Then it was a toss up on my pasta dish between lobster raviolis and wild mushroom pappardelle I went with the lobster raviolis in a pink sauce. I never finish my food and I ate ever single ravioli. The portion was good enough for me and the proper way to eat a pasta dish so you don’t have left overs or waste. The pink sauce was creamy and delicious (I even dipped my bread in it at the end). Then I went straight for the dessert and ordered affogato (gelato with espresso) wow amazing not too sweet and not too bitter from the espresso perfect blend. Then my friend and I still were not ready to leave so I ordered a espresso martini and again amazing only advice I would give them is shake the martini more to make it foamy And that was my first experience at Gusto’s I give it a 10/10 Oh and the pizza looked really good that will be my next outing.”

“Wonderful place to eat on our trip to Boston. Went with my dad and then took my wife there 3 days later for a different experience. Owner was kind and friendly. Birthday party was in the middle room and the whole restaurant sang along.”

“DELICIOUS food & wine, good service”

“Outstanding menu that changes seasonally and with specials. Service is superb! Especially Christina. We love to visit and eat here with goid friends. Never a bad meal. A plus! 10 stars! All quality food! Worth every penny. Love pans cota too!”

“AMAZING atmosphere!!! AMAZING service!!!! AMAZING food!!! Seriously run to grab a bite here and ask for Sara as your waitress!! The burratta was Michelin star worthy. The best bite of food that I have ever had.”

“I had my Daughter’s bridal shower at the Long Cross. The staff were so helpful and accommodating. The venue provided linens and flowers for the tables. We had complete use of the back part of the restaurant and patio. They allowed us to set up a balloon arch and backdrop for pictures, and several tables for displays and games. The food was great and the price was reasonable. I would recommend having your party or shower there.”

“Everythings good Chicken Marsala is like candy”

“One of my favorite local Italian restaurants! Their homemade pasta is delicious. Their service is fast and their portions are gigantic!”

“Great food and service. Will go back.”

“MBC is a great place to hang with different selections of well crafted brews ! Fun, layback atmosphere . The staff is friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!”

“Recently had lunch here for the first time and it was soooooo good. Delicious food, warm ambience and really nice staff.”

“Simple Fare is the trifecta: great service, delicious food, and reasonable prices. Maeghan made our menu planning easy and when Melissa delivered our food she was super helpful with set-up. Everyone at our event complimented the food and I'm already scheming about our next party...I know who we'll be contacting to cater it! Thank you to the whole team -- you're awesome!”

“I don't go to bars much these days but came here for a live music event, the Nirvana tribute band and this place is awesome. The place LOOKS amazing, they had sports playing on a bunch of tvs the food was PHENOMENAL, you order and they text you when it's ready that was pretty wild to me, and the best part of all the amazing staff that was so friendly to me and my family members. Would highly recommend, the concert was AWESOME and would definitely come here again. Really memorable night. THANK YOU”

“Great place, awesome food and very friendly workers.”

“oh my oh my my wonderous bulgogi… if only we had a little bit more time together… i already miss the feeling of it in my mouth as my taste buds savor every single inch of sweet goodness… i want more now more than anything but this traitorous mortal body cannot handle it im so sorry lets meet again in the next life”

“Wonderful food. Had a nice lunch with a close girlfriend. Our waitress was fantastic. Can't wait to go back again. Better than the NorthEnd.”

“Awesome coffee, awesome people. Simply the best roaster around. Len's offers an amazingly varied rotation of truly excellent coffee (even with the recent pruning of the menu), and it's stuff you won't find anywhere else--their large number of Vietnamese roasts and blends, of course, but also liberica, Mr. Taggart's (fire-roasted!), and the best decaf you'll find anywhere. Len's knowledge of the finer points of roasting is unparalleled, and it shows. I'm local, so I always pick up my orders rather than having them shipped, which is hugely convenient. Len's is an institution. Help keep them in business, buy local!”

“My friend and I have been to the lounge side and are always treated well by Lucy, who we have seen on a couple of Wednesdays after work. The service is always right on and the food is good too. ! Ro”

“Food is great and the staff is great especially the bartenders!”

“First time there, was on a whim due to a Google search for burgers. Snappy Patty’s did not disappoint!! The cheeseburgers, tots, and beignets were on point!! Delicious, well cooked, and well seasoned!!! I’m from the south and this is the FIRST place I have ever recommended for burgers. The decor is phenomenal!! The colors and pics on the wall.. you have to see it!! Everything from Sesame Street, Star Wars, to classic rockers are present on the walls!! The music is the perfect level!! You can talk and have as conversation, but still have background music. Something I have found is not always the case. The staff is unbelievable. I felt like I was a regular that had been going for years! The communication with ordering to hid the staff works senselessly together is an added bonus to this experience. Yes, experience.. when all your senses are activated.. a restaurant/bar isn’t just a place for food and drinks. It’s a place that comes to life. Check it out when you can and tell me if you don’t feel the same!! I already know I’ll be back. Enjoy!!”

“Interesting sushi buffet. Very crowded, be prepared to wait to be seated. Once seated, if you select the buffet option, you then order from a list of offerings, standard sushi/sashimi fare. Trick is to account for the time between orders and keeping track of what you ordered so that you don't order too much, since they do charge a ka carte prices for items left over to discourage food waste. You have a 2 hrs time limit, but that's plenty of time. If you bring your appetite, you're in for a treat. If you didn't, then order from the menu. I'm an eater, so I highly recommend it.”

“Friendly atmosphere, fair price and delicious Portuguese food.”

“One of my favorite places around the area. The regular maki is my fa orite to order since it has 4 different makis to try and very cheap. The waitress was helpful with recommendations.”

“Great place! Clean rooms.... beautiful everything. The only thing that could improve this place is a sign that tells people that they NEED to check in to the front desk in order to operate the elevators! 😂❤️”

“Zam Zam is probably the only place in greater Boston that has done Pakistani cuisine properly. The Biryani and Chicken Karahi is the best anywhere in this region. Haleem and Nihari are also very good. My only suggestion is, please add aloo to your biryani.”

“A 4.5 rounded up for their authentic dishes. The low reviews may reflect folks who are expecting Americanized Chinese food like General Gao’s, crab rangoon, brown colored fried rice and so on. But this restaurant is serving authentic Sichuan food from southwestern China which exemplifies bold, pungent and spicy in your face flavors. I love Cantonese cuisine and even eat Americanized Chinese food now and again but know it’s not fair to review a Sichuan restaurant on their few non Sichuan menu items.

We loved everything we ordered from the extensive menu and only wish the food was a bit less salty. I will ask them to make our order less salty next time. To be fair, the salt level is probably how most people would prefer their food but we are low salt people. I can’t wait to return and work my way through the menu. Recommend if you want to try authentic Sichuan food. Don’t come if you want crab Rangoon and red colored pork strips.”

“Great food with gluten free options!”

“The patties are wonderfully spiced & flakey. can't wait to try sweet the pastries!”

“Great Ramen! I like it spicy, but they have regular and veggie options as well!”

“If you are looking for outstanding authentic Egyptian food please try Kushari. The food made to order is consistently delicious and service is over the top. Plenty of free parking is another bonus!”

“I live in Bar Harbor, Maine, and one of my guests staying with us offered me a homemade bagel from this establishment. It's one of the best poppy seed bagels I've had in a long time, and the homemade chive cream cheese pairs so perfectly with the smoked salmon. It made my day eating this bagel after work. I love lox. It's one of the sweetest gifts a guest has ever given me. 💕 When I travel the coast looking at lighthouses this winter, this bagel shop will definitely be on my places to stop. Alan is a great supporter and saleman! I'm happy to have met him and have him as one of my guests. Great memory, I'll keep with me. Thanks Alan 😊😊”

“We love the quiche at Colette's!”

“Chicken and French fries is good
But the only thing I don't like is the is there to cool down the spicy chicken in case you think it's really hot you guys put the spicy chicken right on the bread then the spice comes off the chicken on to the bread
What's the point of the bread if you put the chicken on the bread and spice come off customers supposed to be getting bread with no spices on it it's not going to help them if they feel that the chickens really hot if the bread has the spices on it it's pointless”

“the best mexican food”

“The food was great!! Ordered take out out today and especially loved the tikka masala and the veg samosas. Will be back sure! 10/10 would recommend!”

“I’m coming From Gloucester MA. Bella makes best raviolis everyone is always happy and smiling and eager to serve . Best raviolis I have ever eaten. My family and I love them. Thank you Bella beautiful to observe family togetherness. God’s Blessings, Roseann”

“Sandwiches were awesome. Great addition to the neighborhood. Highly recommend.”

“My bowl comes out right every time. I love the açaí and the seven free toppings 🤩🤩. I believe this is a small, family owned business: they are always attentive to your order, they will even call you to confirm if you want a specific topping or not! It’s apparent that they work hard and they care about their customers. Great, consistent customer service and bowls. I am so happy they exist.”

“Pick up - I had gone to beauty school in 09 down the street from here and woild always go on my lunch break. I’m from RI and once I heard my husband was going to be working down the street from here I was thrilled. The pizza is thin style, perfect ratio of cheese and sauce. Did not disappoint”

“Great staff, coffee desserts and snacks ! Awesome place. Owner makes you feel at home and like your family.”

“The best sell I can give you on Danish Pastry House is that we ordered wayyyy more than enough cake for our wedding guests (3 flavors and enough to feed about twice as many guests as we had) and it was ALL gone at the end of the night. People were coming up to us saying they tried all three flavors because it was so delicious!

They did such a good job, the cake was amazing, and the flavors are so much more unique and interesting than the basic “vanilla” and “chocolate” that most bakeries offer for their wedding cake flavors. We went with black forest, Swedish princess, and passionfruit, but everything we tried from the bakery during the tasting was awesome.

They also worked with me in advance to use dried flowers I sourced to decorate the cake. It turned out even better than I could have hoped for! Everything was delivered on time and was just perfect.

I’d highly recommend Danish Pastry House to anyone looking for a unique, delicious, and affordable wedding cake option! I think they were by far one of the best bang-for-our-buck wedding vendors, and we’re so thankful to them!”

“Such a sweet new find! Everything was delicious and reminded me of my time in Thailand! We will definitely be back!! Thank you!!”

“10/10 customer service! They made a minor mistake with my last order but were quick to fix it!
Super friendly & helpful!
This is my favorite location in the Boston area! And their cookies are always perfect!!! 💓☺️”

“If you're looking for the most delicious breakfast sandwich that you've ever had in the world ??? come here!!!!??????
I had bacon,egg and cheese and sausage egg and cheese!!!! Delectimo!!!!???????

Note; Hours 4 am- 12pm m-f - 4am- 1pm ss”

“This is a wonderful place. All the people are so nice and friendly. We are regulars there and most of the employees know our special order. Can’t say enough about the owner. Do yourself a favor and go for food and/or ice cream!”

“Deep Cuts is a great little spot to eat and catch a show. The food is good, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The live space is small and intimate. There’s even a selection of vinyl records available for sale in the taproom!!!! I highly recommend it.”

“This is hands down the best Italian deli I’ve ever been to! The chicken cutlets were to DIE for. The two subs were absolutely amazing. Customer service was top notch. I live 40 minutes away and will be making this a monthly stop for sure. The premade meals section was drool worthy! And the BREAD…. I could have ate three loafs alone. I never make reviews really but this place deserves it!!!!! Don’t walk…. RUN!”

“Good packing space and good drinks !!”

“great food friendly atmosphere anall the staff are top notch”

“Ordered lunch for the office. Food was delivered right on the time I requested. Delivery driver was super helpful bringing the trays inside and the food tasted deliciously. Chicken wings were moist and full of flavor and the pizza was done to perfection. Will be ordering there often now!”

“If i lived nearby id be in here twice a week! These guys move units! Popped in for breakfast and got their signature steak and bacon B Boy and left satisfied. Great grab and go fare, a classic!”

“Best cake ever!!!! :) Always amazing!!!”

“I love this place very friendly staff”

“I was searching Google for a custom pull apart cupcake cake and found Frostin in Boston. Liza was quick to respond to my email and right away we found the perfect design for my daughter’s birthday. She offered pick up in Medford and also delivery to your house! If you have allergies she offers, gluten-free, vegan and nut-free cakes!”

“CLASSIC CAFE OFFERS DELICIOUS BREAKFAST/LUNCH AT VERY REASONABLE PRICES. THE CAFE HAS A WARM, NEIGHBORHOOD ATMOSPHERE. THERE IS PLENTY OF PARKING.”

“Will never go there just by reading reviews how they treat customers with disrespect, that behavior is not tolerate in Little Italy NYC Mulberry Street stop by Cafe Palermo if you in New York”

“My favorite store, drink delicious 😋”

“Awesome Food! We love chicken parm and pizza!”

“i’ve eaten here at least 50 times while living in medford.”

“I absolutely love Liv! Once you try their peanut butter, you will love them too! My favorite is the Peanut Butter in a Cup. This is my go to place!”

“I used to enjoy the juice at Kwench, but they closed down and I didn't realize the Bakery was still open because I thought it was all one business. Discovered their delicious spinach patties- so warm and a lil flaky and a Mauby drink 😋
They're very affordable! Friendly staff. The tall young guy knows me by face. It's located on Salem St in Medford across from The Original Ronny's pizza shop. FYI- They close early on Sundays. Give them a try, you'll love it!!”

“Everything Good.”

“everything ist fine there”

“Great relaxing atmosphere,friendly excellent menu for lunches. Grate Varieties of cold and hot coffees and fruit smoothies.”

“We love going here if we are in the area. A great mix of baked goods, from sweet to savory. The cheese balls are divine. I also very much enjoy their meat filled breads as well. All this packed up with very affordable prices. Highly recommend this place for a quick bite.”

“We were visiting from out-of-state, and wanted to verify if they carried Richie’s Slush. I messaged and they were very responsive and even told me where to find parking. We enjoyed some delicious slush today! Thank you, CB Scoops!”

“We shop at MB in Ashland. We bought the raspberry filled chocolate cupcakes this morning there. They were wonderful. Colorful red frosting with a dollop of raspberry jam in the center. Excellent!”

“Door Dash delivers to the city (hot, cold, or frozen), which is a dangerous thing to have discovered! The pies are packed with big chunks of very good white meat chicken, so they’re more filling than most. They’re also not too salty. The portions are really solid, too. A pie that says it’s 6 servings fed us exactly 6 servings. They were wonderful when I called about a food allergy, too.”

“Very gorgeous cafe.
The euro butter cookies were so decadent.
My snickerdoodle ice coffee was made with love to perfection.
Dunkin who?
Starbucks who?
Pavement what?
Honey dew who?
They could never.
Thank you for great service and amazing pastries and coffee.”

“Friendly staff serve you over the counter with the brain food you need to study international diplomacy. Great place to chill and grab a coffee and a quick pre-made snack or a full lunch!

Mugar Cafe. A place to eat.”

“Wow! What a cool organization! I really enjoy the events!”

“Ever since I ordered from here years ago, I have always loved this place. I got D19. Everything was hot and delicious. Chicken wings at other places have no taste, but here wow! Bug too. It's like two chicken wings. Everything is juicy and delicious, not dry. Big pieces of pork and veggies in the pork low menu. Extra soy sauce, duck sauce is free. Other places in the same area charge extra. When you walk in, the guy behind the counter is smiling and very friendly. I don't live close by, but the drive is worth it. I would highly recommend this place to all my friends and family!!”

“It was very quiet in the Starbucks and it had a nice little lounge area. I liked the music and workers there very kind and even gave my drinks while I was sitting down which was very helpful.”

“The service is great and the people are nice. The only weird thing is with the cranberry walnut chicken salad wrap. The cranberries and walnuts aren’t in the chicken salad and just put on like a topping. It was odd. I’ve never seen that before. It wasn’t fun to eat when biting into a wrap with hard chunks of candied walnuts on one side. Hurts the teeth. If it’s all mixed in, they get a little soft and the cranberries rehydrate. Hopefully this gets fixed because the wrap would be great otherwise. The chips are fantastic.”

“first time eating there today we were visiting from NYC. was fabulous. the size of the calzone was amazing. will visit again before we leave. the food was great and the portion size was incredible”

“I come here almost everyday. They are incredibly busy but I never have to wait long. They churn out the orders so fast and they've never messed up any of my orders. 5”

“Delicious food! I recommend the Eggs Benedict and famous French Toast which is what me and my wife ordered the service was also friendly and quick great place to take your family and little ones.”

“I’m from Los Angeles and this ranked with some of the best Mexican food there.”

“Good place to park for access to the city. It gets pretty full early on the weekdays, but on the weekends you should be able to find parking no problem. If there are any special events going on in the city, be sure to go get there really early--Everyone has the same idea you do.”

“Friendly staff with excellent kitchen crew. Great family run place with great atmosphere. You are treated like family here.”

“Best fresh sandwich’s authentic Italian! Hands down!”

“I haven't found better Chinese food anywhere..

I've been eating there food for over 10 years.
Extremely good food.
No chemicals.”

“Excellent lunch specials and a great value. The kung pao lunch special with fried rice and two chicken wings is only $10.95 and my favorite thing to order. Most of their lunch entrees are only $11-12, and it is very generous to give chicken wings and vegetable fried rice with the entrees. It’s a go to for me.

Have tried a number of dishes and everything is always tasty and fresh. Their delivery service is always very fast too.”

“Very friendly staff at this location, they can also take physical orders so it’s not just pick up via the app. I got a modified baby yoda drink: brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso topped with matcha cold foam ? They mistakenly gave me hazelnut, but I’ll let it slide because it was still quite yummy :)”

“This place was really good the burger we had was absolutely amazing not sure the name of it but it's the signature burger they have. Thank you for your hospitality”

“Luncheon plates are huge, couldn’t finish it, and I was hungry! Saw the specials board, and noticed one of my favorites, that I haven’t had in some time! Will return tomorrow for the Peking Duck! Also noticed they now have full bar, not just beer , and wine!”

“I don't usually write these things. Extravagant service I've had at this place. I got takeout last Saturday night and it was delicious. A young lady Amanda I think her name was, was extremely kind and was being very nice when I had to wait a while and was often checking on my order without me having ask. Very polite girl. superb service. Amazing.”

“Love Jeremiah & Sulley. This place is nostalgic to when I used to frequent a lot during college. Love that I was able to find one so close to home and was pretty awesome employees.”

“awesome burgers 🍔and fries 🍟”

“This place is one of the best Italian spots in all of Medford. You think you’re getting a basic Italian dish but the pastas and entrees are authentically flavored and will soon become your comfort restaurant for years. Super worth it!!”

“The best pzza in town,. I miss it a lot. I am visiting Boston very soon and defenitely I am going to stop by and and have a nice meal. God bless them all.”

“my first time was in #Texaas”
