“Both meals were well presented, had the seasonal house salad, my new favorite, the champagne vinaigrette dressing just made it more delicious My husband had the corn beef dinner and totally enjoyed it . Waitress was friendly and efficient, will definitely be return.“
“We both ordered filets, along with two sides. The filets were delicious! Disappointed in the size of the side dishes for the price. They use to be much larger. The shrimp cocktail was good too. Our sever, Andrew was good, but not very attentive. Our appetizer plates weren't removed from the table when our food was served! That's a big deal for me.“
“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.“
“The staff at Brassica are so knowledgeable, fun, and friendly. They bump the best playlists, joke with you, discuss taste preferences, honor allergies, and are actually excited to provide a good dining experience. It's truly a neighborhood gem that I want to gatekeep so badly but will not because everyone deserves this level of stellar dining and the team here deserves to succeed! The food is funky with a heavy focus on fermentation along with honing culinary techniques from around the world without trying to put out “Asian food” or “Latin cuisine” or “fusion”, just their own creations. They make spirits in house (turns out I can like vermouth!) and source wines from places most others restaurants don’t dare to cover. It’s where I bring all my visitors if I can snag a table!“
“Great place for food and drinks in Boston. The food quality is much better than your average food court and alcohol is available. It's not as large as the one in Lisbon but there's still a decent variety of food choices. We had lunch there prior to a Red Sox game and went there for supper after the game. The place was not overly busy both times so it was easy to find seating.Overall, we prefer the Time Out Market over the High Street Place food hall downtown. At Time Out Market your food is served on real plates with proper cutlery and the beer comes in a glass. At High Street Place, your food is served in takeout containers with plastic cutlery and draft beer in a plastic cup.“
“We enjoyed a beautiful night out in Boston and ended up eating at Vee Vee (luckily) as walk-ins. They gave us a seat by the door, which was appreciated and the service to the food was hitting on all marks.The one thing I hold back from giving a 5 star review on is that we were dying of heat -- it felt like we were eating in a sauna. I'm not sure if it was because they didn't turn on the AC or if we just had an unfortunate seat that wasn't receiving any of that cool air. Either way, I was sweating throughout the entire dinner service and so was my fiancée.“
“Having dined at Basil Restaurant last night, I must say the ambiance was top-notch. The dim lighting and cozy seating made for a pleasant atmosphere. However, the service was a bit slow, as it took quite some time for our food to arrive. Nonetheless, when the dishes finally made their way to our table, they were delicious. I particularly enjoyed the basil-infused pasta, which was bursting with flavor. The prices were reasonable considering the quality of the food, but I do wish the portions were a tad larger. Overall, Basil Restaurant offers a decent dining experience with room for improvement in service efficiency.“
“Dinner and drinks with a friend, great service and food. We had a fish sandwich that was plentiful and delicious and the Parmesan fries were outstanding. My friend had the “plain Jane” pizza which was great too! Definitely a “go to” in the neighborhood. Drinks were excellent, a white sangria and a razz lemonade!“
“Atmosphere was nice. Live music nice. Lunch fish and chips is one fish. I think at dinner they give you two fish but the price is more. $13 at lunch and $19 for dinner. Would have been nice to specify as I would have ordered the dinner portion for lunch. Salad was good.“
“I have tried their fried chicken side order, fried chicken sandwich, Korean fried chicken sandwich, and mac and cheese. All were delicious.Also recently had the chicken salad sandwich. Overall it was good, but the Dijon mustard flavor was too strong. My parents took a few bites and weren't able to finish it.Eitherway, looking forward to try some of their other dishes.“
“Super friendly service, inviting atmosphere, and amazing food! The taro latte was a warm, sweet (but not too sweet!) hug in a mug. The pancakes were so fluffy and soft! The towoomba panini, however, was the star of the show! It was so fresh, unusual, and absolutely delicious! All in all, I can't recommend Cafe Weekend highly enough!“
“This review is for the Brookline location of The Abbey. The Abbey doesn't do reservations or call ahead. We showed up around 6:00ish on a Saturday night and were told there was a 20 - 30 minute wait. We were welcome to sit at the bar, but there was no place for four people to sit together, so we lurked near the door and chatted, ducked customers walking in and out and staff taking orders, running food and clearing plates. It's a small space when all the tables are full and people are a few deep at the bar, but that just added to the ambiance. I was seated facing the wall so I didn't see quite how busy it got, but the noise was at "lively" level. We could still have a conversation but needed to speak up to be heard across the table. We were able to snag a table after about 30 minutes. The basics first: The drinks, food and service were fantastic! This is our second time here, the first being ages ago when they had the covered tables outside early in the pandemic. I've been wanting to come back forever, but don't usually get to this part of Brookline. I need to change that or head to Cambridge too! I started with a winter sangria (red wine, brandy, spiced rum, apricot and allspice) that was delicious. They have a pretty extensive gluten free menu, which is nice. My friend wanted the GF pasta Bolognese, but she is dairy free to so that was not an option. We ordered two of the slow-braised short rib "French dip" egg rolls with gruyere, horseradish aioli, and red wine demi for the table. Loved this! I never finish apps and I inhaled this. I was fine with that, I could just put my main in a take home container. We also got the black kale & Brussels sprouts salad, avocado, pepitas, Crispy bacon, and a fried duck egg. Even if you think you don't like kale and or Brussels sprouts, get this dish! I got the "Thanksgiving" panini (house roasted turkey, cornbread stuffing, cheddar, arugula, cranberry aioli, hand-cut fries). It was delicious and can't wait for the leftovers. The hanger steak frites came topped with watercress and a madeira sauce. It was the most tender steak that I've ever had. For sides my friends also ordered shredded Brussels sprouts and pan roasted cauliflower with capers and pecorino as sides. Not to be missed are the hand cut fries that are the embodiment of French fries perfection. They are a must order, either plain or with truffles and cheese. Fried potato nirvana! As I said, the place was packed, but service was attentive and Ty (sp?), our server made sure allergy info was provided to the kitchen. He made great suggestions for items to try. The Brookline location does not serve dessert (sad panda) but the Cambridge location does. Good to note for next time! Did I mention that the kitchen is open until 1:30 AM every night? Perfect for late night bites.“
“Solid fish and beet salad dinner. Really appreciate their proper style of fish batter - light and crisp. Popped in for an early Saturday night dinner, and I'm glad we got there early as it filled up fast. Strong drinks, great pub food options, and a bustling atmosphere.“
“We had an amazing meal in this cosy, warm and welcoming joint right in the middle of Newton centre.We went without a reservation and sat at the bar. The food was perfect in every way which does not happen frequently and when it does – it is a great experience. The cavatelli was outstanding. Same with the porkchops. The deserts were great too. The staff were attentive , and at the same time knowledgeable about what was on offer. The manager too was extremely nice and offered us some very helpful advice on the venue itself.All said, this is a place that one can keep going back to.Parking: Generally enough spots except during weekends“
“The food is delicious. The service is professional and friendly. Love, love love Deuxave. The atmosphere is great. Very attractive and you can hear the other people at your table but the tables are spaced well enough that you’re not hearing other tables.“
“Eli's is a cute spot for brunch. We came around 1 and have table right away but it could be pack in the morning. One thing I didn't like is my potato, other than that I really like omelette. The service is really quick as well. I will back and might try other stuffs.“
“This was an amazing dining experience. Beautiful, tho small restaurant. Perfect service at the bar. The most delicious halibut I have ever had in my 43 years of life. I never knew halibut could be cooked that perfectly. SUPER impressed. Thank you to Antonio and Chef Dave!“
“I can't say enough good things about my experience! From my online booking experience (love being able to book a 11 person reservation online no problem!), to the great seating area (private corner so it felt so intimate even though the restaurant was packed), and last but not least, to the service! Mason was incredible! We had a large party with many people coming and going at different times. Somehow he managed to time our cocktails and food perfectly and handle many different tabs with ease. And the food and cocktails were great! Highly recommend for large parties! Well done Seasons! Thank you Mason!“
“This is an amazing place to go eat. Though it is very good it’s also quite expensive. Just be ready to spend a pretty penny. The service is great, they are all very nice here. The food is spectacular and the milkshakes are delicious! It’s not huge so on busy days they can be kind of hard to get in to. I do recommend visiting here for lunch.“
“A pizza joint that checks all the boxes: food, service, price, drink variety, and atmosphere. The wings were some of the best found anywhere; petite, par boiled, tender meat, with jerk and Buffalo sauces. A good stop. Nothing fancy, just good quality bites.“
“I love this place. My friends introduced it to me when I first moved to the area and my husband, son, and I have been going ever since. They do dollar oysters every day until 5:30pm, which is hard to find these days. It's the best deal in town! We also love the poutine and there's usually a few great local/seasonal beers on draft. Great atmosphere and the guys who work here are friendly, efficient, and helpful. Highly recommend!“
“Solid, reliable neighborhood spot serving approachable classics like fried chicken, fish, & steak. I can't say I've ever been blown away by any food or drink here, but haven't had anything that I didn't care for either, and overall have found it pretty consistent and am usually satisfied with my meal. The menu doesn't change a whole lot, and I'd personally love to see more rotating specials, specifically with a description of them online (the take-out portal saying something like "salmon special" doesn't really help describe what the dish is about?).“
“Had to try the famous chicken Cesar pizza because who doesn’t like salad on a pizza? It literally tastes like how it seems but weirdly good, and there’s so much cheese on top I think that’s the main reason I like it. Their steak tips is also delicious, the steak is well marinated filled with rich red winey flavors.“
“I’ve gone with my grandfather and mom to Cabot’s for over 10+ years. They have the best ice cream! Highly recommend the Patriot Parfait: A tower of Strawberry, and Vanilla ice cream with strawberry and blueberry sauce, with whipped cream and a cherry on top. They also have tasty reuben sandwiches. Staff are friendly, and the owner is lovely. Usually a bit of a wait, but that’s due to how popular the restaurant is. They also sell ice cream birthday cakes, if you are looking for that.“
“Another classy dinner out right here in Norwood. When told we were celebrating a special occasion, the waiter brought complementary dessert with a personalized message in chocolate sauce calligraphy (One Bistro has a pastry chef)! Salads are generous, so we split one; I had shrimp scampi because I like the rock shrimp they have. My date enjoyed the steak frites, and brought home about half for lunch the next day. Thanks for another lovely date night :-]“
“Really impressed with this restaurant! I've developed dietary restrictions due to health reasons which have prevented me from going to a lot of restaurants. When my friend planned a going away dinner here, I reached out via email asking if it was possible for them to accommodate me. They wrote back an extremely kind response saying they were looking forward to hosting me- that really made my day. The wait staff was wonderful, listened to all of my requests attentively and my meal was perfect and delicious. I will absolutely be back, thank you Audubon!“
“We stopped in on the way home from the airport, and it was amazing! From the moment we walked in the door, we felt welcomed. The atmosphere and food were awesome. I highly recommend the Mickey’s Chicken special and the red sangria which was a deep dark red- as sangria should be. Yum! My children loved our Irish waitress who Made them laugh and feel special. This restaurant is over an hour from where we live, but there is no doubt we will travel back often. Wonderful experience!“
“I have never posted a review before. My wife and I are visiting Boston during the winter and we ate dinner at Summer Shack last night. We ate at Atlanta Fish Co a few days ago and that was good too. We went to Pescador tonight and it was so very bad we paid the check, left the food and went back to the Summer Shack because it was so incredibly good. Recommend to all who love great shellfish and lobster. The best.“
“The secret is finally out. Best pizza west of Santarpios. The Greek chicken wrap is criminal and desserts outstanding. The owneris a true gentleman, and the Highlands are nowi the place to go for foodies. Wonderful to see the place thrivingParking: Side streets not metered“
“Great addition to the neighborhood. Worth anywait time. The staff was very friendly knowledgeable, gave great recommendations. I started with a vanilla ice coffee. So good. Not to sweet at all. For my meal I got a special which was gouda grits, cant remember the name if the steak tips and a over easy egg. When I tell you this is so mouth watering. All the flavors together was perfect. The owner even came around talking to patrons which I felt gave it an even more home feeling touch.“
“Never disappoints! This place is quaint and hopping! We are from New York visiting our son and his family and have eaten here before. Service was superb. The chicken and broccoli flatbread...definitely tasty. Bolognese and chicken Parmesan were both delicious. Will absolutely come back on our next visit!“
“I got to Pinky's on a cold Friday evening around 6, expecting the usual rush of after work folks, but surprisingly, it wasn't too crowded. The interior was aesthetically decorated, with just the right kind of lighting that allows for meaningful conversations at tables and the bar. The music choice was great in my opinion, thought at times it got too lively, which made it hard to resist bobbing my head to the music - distracting me from the conversations. The volume was another minor hiccup; it was louder than I would have liked and made it hard to hear others. The cocktails were priced at around $15 each which is pretty standard for the area. It feels extravagant, akin to spending one and a half Chipotle bowls on a single drink is brutal, but they were well-crafted. You'd expect nothing less for that price though, right? As for food, I got the brussels sprouts. There were decent but not as good as the drinks. They left a sharper than expected tang as an aftertaste, which was interesting but didn't quite hit the mark. I do wish they had a more roasted texture, but they were a bit soft. The service was straightforward and efficient. Nothing much to say to the good people that did great at their job. The experience was solidly good. It's the kind of outing you'd expect on Newbury - pricey, but you're paying for the ambiance, location, and vibes.“
“Had sat. breakfast with my husband here. Pleasant welcoming atmosphere, beautiful fun decore.Food was ok as the variety, quality and inventive component were scarce. No espresso machine.The $$$$ were high we thought for the type of food.We had a nice quite time overall.You order through an app.“
“First time dining at Buttonwood. Table was ready, server Tara was attentive and friendly and knew the menu well. Food was excellent (arugula salad, chicken, cheeseburger and steak). Very limited wine list but the Pinot from Oregon was quite good. Will definitely return.“
“My recent visit to Busy Bee Restaurant for breakfast left me feeling like I had stepped into a cozy home. The warm ambiance set the stage for a delightful dining experience. The staff, especially our waiter, went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Their genuine friendliness and proactive service made us feel truly valued. Now, let's talk about the food. It was delicious! Generous portions at reasonable prices, cooked to perfection. Overall, Busy Bee Restaurant exceeded our expectations with its welcoming atmosphere, impeccable service, and mouthwatering food. Highly recommended!“
“We live in Natick and love Buttercup. That's why we were disappointed with our most recent experience. We stopped by on our way home to have a drink at the bar. There was one or two open seats so we figured one of us would sit and eventually another seat would open up. Only we were stopped by the hostess who told us other people (standing near the host station) had been waiting for bar seats. We were confused because we didn't realize that you couldn't just stand near the bar and have a drink (since we had done this in the past) and also we didn't know that you could even reserve seats at the bar. A couple weeks later we were walking by again and saw that there were many open seats at the bar but my boyfriend and I looked at each other and said, let's skip it. We are still just not feeling great about our last experience.“
“I wish they offered more allergen info on their menu but I loved all the food (and the juices) I got here--good mix of culturally diverse options while also still kind of being junk food. Most of the desserts are mediocre though, the pistachio cake is a little cloying and the chocolate cake had no frosting or anything just a thin layer of icing that mostly stuck to the container?“
“We stumbled upon this place while shopping and were so happy we did. I had a chicken sandwich, my husband tried the Classic and the ‘Merica, and our kids had the fries and chicken tenders. Everything was delicious. We rate it a 10 out of 10! Also, our waitress was amazing. I wish I could remember her name. Try Crazy Good Kitchen, you won’t be disappointed!“
“Indulge in the finest glass of orange juice in Norwood, MA, at Sunrise Breakfast! ?? This charming, family-owned establishment boasts a warm and welcoming atmosphere. From the friendly owner to the delicious food, including delightful GF French toast and pancakes, every visit is a delight. Sunrise Breakfast is one of my top breakfast spots in Norwood!“
“Had a very nice time here, staff was extremely friendly and accommodating for our young kids. Food was good we ate every bite! Only reason for not 5 stars was the shock of the price of my wife’s single waffle with a few berries (see pic) it was 17$! Besides that all was great and would go back for sure.Kid-friendliness: High chairs and crayons were available.“
“we had a table of 7 and everyone was happy. we started with the mussels and ceaser salad and both were delicious. I ordered the halibut and the the sauce was so yummy and the halibut cooked perfectly. others got the fish tacos and were happy . there was also a chicken and arugula salad that my husband liked. the service was beyond good. we also loved a house red wine and the desserts omg. the place, ambience is so nice. the only bad thing is I live far away.“
“I'll admit it -- we are those people. The ones who weren't going to go out on Valentine's Day until we decided we were. And it turns out we weren't the only ones. The place is frequented by regulars for sure with a bar on one side and a slightly more formal sit down dining room on the other. When we arrived we waited for about 10 minutes and were seated at a high top near the bar area. During this time another couple got frustrated with the single waitress to be seen after she dropped off some food to them. This couple was not empathetic at all and then expressed that to the waitress in a condescending tone on what was probably one of the busiest nights there. The same woman was our waitress and it was clear she was running around from dining room to bar room without a single moment to catch her breath. She did great! Obviously the kitchen was swamped too but we knew to adjust our expectations accordingly for timing. Food was delicious, incredible value. Calamari was a generous portion and could definitely be a small family appetizer on its own. My husband commented that you will not find a steak for less than $35 in the area and I think this one was $25 or so? Truffle fries were excellent. I got the bolognese and it was comforting and a big portion. We'll definitely come back on a less busy night but overall it was a good experience!“
“We recently had the pleasure of visiting the South Bay location for lunch, and our experience was nothing short of delightful. From the moment we stepped in, we were warmly greeted by Lori, who was incredibly welcoming and friendly, setting a positive tone for our visit. The variety of food choices available at South Bay caught our attention, making it hard to decide what to try first.Ultimately, we settled on the burgers, which were absolutely delicious, and paired them with truffle tots that were a savory treat for our taste buds. To add a touch of green to our meal, we also indulged in some of their kale and Brussels sprouts slaw, which was a refreshing and tasty addition to our meal. Each dish was prepared to perfection, and we savored every bite.Our dining experience at South Bay was so enjoyable that we're already looking forward to our next visit. With the warm hospitality shown by Lori and the delectable array of food options, it's easy to see why we'll be coming back again soon.“
“The Vietnamese rolls were delicious and the peanut sauce was some of the best I’ve had! I also tried a few bites of different pastries (I love to sample).I tried the apricot almond cinnamon roll, the raspberry coconut pastry bites and the sugar cookies.Everything I tried was fabulous, AND they have Harney and Sons Tea (excellent choice, and my favorite next to The Republic of Tea), so I had an almond milk Turmeric Ginger Latte, which hit the spot as well!You can taste that all ingredients are real, and the food is a decent price in spite which is good because I will definitely be back.“
“Great restaurant for breakfast or lunch! Prices are very reasonable for the quantity and quality of food they're serving. The servers are friendly and accommodating. They were very understanding about my parent who has dementia.... Served her soup as soon as it was ready as requested, brought more hot chocolate as needed and they waved every time my mother waved at them. As my teenaged daughter says: "they know how to serve old people."The food was very good. I had their berry strudel French toast (lots of fresh strawberries and strawberry ricotta cheese on challah French toast) was absolutely delicious - I liked it without syrup. The rest of my party had corned beef hash and eggs, cheeseburger, panini, and lemon chicken rice soup. All was so good, we didn't have any leftovers!Metered street parking only.Handicap access: zero steps (ramped entryway); everything, including large bathrooms, on one level.Wheelchair accessibility: Zero steps (ramped entryway); everything, including large bathrooms, on one level.“
“The atmosphere is very cozy and tight knit, with the good lighting and comically large selection of beers this place is awesome for anyone wanting to sit down and have a pint. Met a cool regular my first time in and he recommended me and my buddy try the steak bomb, non-frozen chicken tenders, and one of the burgers. We did just that. As a southern man, fried chicken runs in me veins. The chicken here nearly made me shed tears. Probably some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever eaten. Got the double barbecue bacon burger, easily top four or top three burgers I’ve eaten. The steak bomb is delicious too. The portions are large considering the price. I grant the title of southern certified ™ eatin’s.“
“We frequent Cook at least once a week. It’s our favorite place in Needham. The staff, the food, the atmosphere never disappoints. Although the entire staff is tremendous, we especially enjoy when Anderson is on the bar. He’s beyond friendly and always attentive. He makes a flawless drink with his rhythmic shaker!! Definitely recommend.“
“Food presentation and service was excellent. Our waitress particularly was fantastic. Attentive with a smile. My only complaint was that our Burrata salad was a bland. Just needed a sprinkle of salt and pepper which were not on the table. Main courses were delicious though. The atmosphere was fine but nothing really grabbed me to give that 5 stars.“
“All four plates were delicious, the burgers and the Parm with the garlic sauce. Spicy guava margaritas had a kick and stiff, friendly staff, kid friendly, the owners were very attentive. Plenty of parking and quick service on a busy Saturday night. We recommend and will be “
“The process of booking for my SIL’s baby shower was easy from start to finish. I had no idea what I was doing in terms of how much and what to order. I gave Karen an idea of what we wanted and she took it and made a great selection of food.Everyone I spoke to at the party raved about the food, especially the quiche and the scones!The fruit on the fruit salad was all so ripe even with it being February!“
