Restaurants near West Newton

“We had a wonderful experience and have returned a few times. All of our dishes were tasty except for the ninebark salad. It was delicious although for the price they were extremely skimpy with the lettuce, and I finished my salad and watched everyone else enjoy their dishes. If you charge that price point for a salad I believe you should be generous with the foundation of the dish which is lettuce.”

“Always excellent. Friendly. Brilliant blend of spices and flavors.”

“Guy was mad chill and I told him how I cant find wonton noodle soup anywhere and he assured me that he would always provide me any combination of noodle and soup that I wanted. 11/10.”

“the oysters are out of sight! delicious bravo! bouillabaisse was amazing! I did like my server. I do suggest they get some sleep nobody was smiling.”

“The food was fresh and fantastic! Service was excellent !”

“Delicious Enmi ramen! First time seeing a citrusy yuzu-based ramen on a menu, and it was yummmy! Our server Justin was also so warm and welcoming, subbing the broth out for a vegan one. And the atmosphere is so cozy and intimate, will be back the next time we're in Boston for sure!”

“The oyster selection is great! I also had the crab risotto, which was delicious even though the garnish didn't suit my taste. I had a gin and blueberry cocktail from their menu which was wonderful and so cool to watch the bartender work from the low bar seating. Also El was my party's server and they had great energy-- really friendly and knowledgeable without being too stuffy, which in a place like this can be a fine line to walk. Will definitely be back soon!”

“Very tasty food, great service. No reservations, first come first serve. Prices are not super inexpensive but it is worth the cost. We were only grabbing a snack as we had some commitment afterward. Only pitty is that it is difficult to share bites if you are like me and want to try it all. I guess we will have to come back! 😜
My favorite was the shrimp tempura, but the eel was great too.”

“Went for the first time and everything was great!!”

“The most delicious pastries ever. If you love pistachio the way I do you will have trouble choosing and it is ALL great. But I particularly love the savories. The Palestinian bread and the flatbread with the green topping (forget what it's called) is a family favorite. We adore these; the flatbreads are a great quick lunch. But so so delicious, fresh, we are so fortunate to have you here!”

“Great tapas / quite filling”

“Absolutely delicious in it’s perfect simplicity!”

“What an amazing place. In these times when we are still not comfortable dining indoors this place rocks. The chef behind these dishes knows a thing or two about bringing beer garden food to a totally new level. Thank you chef and staff in front of the house.”

“A great gem my daughter and I went to while she was visiting from California . The monkey bread muffin definitely a treat along with the peanut butter explosion coffee Thank you for your kindness”

“Left another place to come here because the customer service was bad. What a 180. Citizen staff was friendly, great w/suggestions and helped secure me a seat at their busy bar. Had two great cocktails and a delicious pepper seared filet. Well done Citizen Pub!! I will be back!”

“Amazing food and bookstore!”

“The best meal- great service- Beautiful atmosphere And warm friendly hostess”

“Food was delicious. Only dish they didn't wow was the Sea Captain. It needed a bit more depth to the sauce. Service was generally good but expected a bit more coordination between server and runners and runners just dropped food without any explanation about what it was. Also, timing was a little odd. Got 4 dishes very quickly and then a long wait until the entree. Overall though would definitely recommend”

“The staff, service and food were all exceptional. The atmosphere is relaxing and the menu is very interesting, especially the cocktail menu. The presentation of the food is impeccable and the staff is very attentive, making sure the water is filled and that the check is ready when we were finished. A perfect balance and what every restaurant should strive to mimic. A must try if you want to find a place that is unique. Thanks to the staff for a fun evening.”

“Perfect in every way. The most delicious food in Boston (or anywhere). The friendliest atmosphere. Always our first choice for special occasions and every day meals. Love, love, love.”

“We took a friend out to dinner at Oleana last night for her birthday and it was one of the best meals we’ve had. We loved being able to share and sample so many dishes, and each one was a masterful balancing of herbs, spices and flavors. The service was also top-notch. We can’t wait to return! It’s no surprise that it’s hard to get a reservation.”

“Dylan made our experience so much fun!”

“On the edge of historic Downtown Concord, Fiorella's has a nice atmosphere and delicious food!

I recommend the Buffalo Brussels Sprouts and Chicken Gnocchi Fra Diavolo.”

“Very welcoming. I got there about an hour before closing so I picked my food quickly. I had the Creamy Tum Yum and added a little chili oil to it for some spice. It is a great dish for someone who wants flavor with little to no heat. There was plenty of pork and two shrimp tails. I also had the Thai Tea which from the picture in the menu I was worried was a premade mix. Instead it came out fresh and required me to swirl it around to blend the cream. Perfect flavor and temperature. Not overly sweet like some places make it.

The atmosphere was laid back with some cool art work on the walls. Definitely gave a college town feel. The bathroom could use some work. It wasn't scary. It was clean and well stocked but it is definitely on the back burner when it comes to decorating.

I'm surprised they don't have merchandise. Their logo would be a cool patch on a hat. Seems like most restaurants are doing this now and I'm here for it. Better than buying shot glasses.

Anyways, check the place out for some good hot pots, ramen, etc. when in the area.”

“I enjoy Cava every day, but especially when I am on my way to an event! Jeff, Luz,&Cris are just a few of the employees that bring charisma and good customer service to the Cava Experience! Thanks for helping my stay healthy. PS the right rice is my fav!”

“Visiting from California and went here for dinner, what a great decision. The owner greeted my wife and I as if we had known him our whole lives. He was extremely helpful and the food was delicious. The portion sizes are HUGE and the price isn't.”
