“Excellent food and service. Will be back again.“

“Cravable food, awesome beer selection, super cool staff, great vibe.“

“We are an entertainment service company that specializes in small ensemble/DJ combos. We performed at our first wedding at The Herb Lyceum in early October and were blown away. First of all, the garden and grounds are LOVELY, the food is OUTSTANDING and the staff were all WONDERFUL. Everyone there was friendly and professional, and truly allowed us to do what we do best, and we felt fully supported to do our jobs. Often with outdoor venues, we have issues with power, but not here! We had ample power for the ceremony, dinner reception and the dance party under the tent, running some heavy wattage sound and lights. We very much look forward to coming back to do more events in the future!“

“The other night I several of my dance students went to Welly's. Everyone order different dishes, all were exceptional. Drinks were great. And our waiter was right on the ball, took good care of us. One of the best restaurants around. Outside sitting if you choose. Parking garage close by.“

“The experience at J's is always exceptional - beautiful old farmhouse, wood fireplace, clean, great service. not too loud. And when the food matches up with my tastes, it's a hit. I wish they offered more than 1 soup & more than 1 salad.“

“Magnificent experience from waiter to menu to food, it was a culinary encounter with greatness.“

“My friend and I out for a celebration of sorts and both of us loved our experience. Molly was amazing as was everyone else we interacted with. Food was perfect ..“

“Amazing food! We went for a special wi e night and service was perfect, food was amazing!“

“I’ve been regularly coming to this restaurant for the last 12 years or so. Brunch (not a buffet) on Sundays with friends is my favorite time. Also evening dinner with friends and my husband is always nice. Food, drinks and dessert are very good. Love the cozy Colonial atmosphere and historic aspect of the building. Staff is pleasant and helpful even when very busy. Sometimes there’s a piano player and also went for a blues night during the week in November. Such a treat!\nMy parents used to come here in the 70s, but the food is better now.“

“A GREAT Hot Dog and a cool and tasty Italian Ice. Fresh, soft buns for the dogs with a huge assortment of fixings. I selected a half and half Ice of Strawberry and Watermelon. The strawberry was refreshing and delicious but was NOT sickly sweet. The Watermelon was wonderful and did not have that chemical taste that so many watermelon-flavored products have. It was very natural tasting and was really awesome with the strawberry (I recommend it). A GREAT PLACE TO TAKE THE KIDS, or for a first teenage date! Also, a perfect place for day workers in Sudbury to get quick and delicious lunch.“

“Cravable food, awesome beer selection, super cool staff, great vibe.“

“David and Diana are fantastic addition to Stevie's Café & Catering - Littleton, MA ! The food is made fresh to order. They are happy to accommodate any dietary restrictions or allergies. The food comes out fast and fresh.“

“had an outstanding meal with my family. The food was delicious and well prepared.“

“Can't think of anything we don't love about Welly's. Food, service and atmosphere are all 10/10.“

“Great food, great prices and excellent staff!“

“I will choose a good breakfast/brunch over going out for dinner most times. The Farmer’s Daughter never disappoints! They have a great selection of seasonal specials and drinks as well as staples on the menu that I come back for over and over. The drinks (both adult or other) are all delicious and the coffee is amazing!“

“Arugula salad is the best ever! Shrimp cocktail is excellent. The Lobster Guacamole, Spicy shrimp & hummus apps also excellent. Best entrees- Short Rib, Half roasted Chicken, Fish Tacos & their burgers delish. Best desserts: bread pudding - unreal!! & their salted caramel mousse and fresh whipped cream in the mason jar- ( tip may need a cig afterwards)!“

“Not normally a solo eater, I stopped by the Club Car Cafe in W. Concord, yesterday, and had the most delicious lunch. I ordered the veal parmigiana sandwich which came with fries and, on a 90+ degree day the iced tea I ordered really hit the spot. The veal parmigiana was as good I’ve had at many Italian restaurants. The portion was generous and the price value relationship was excellent. Club Car Cafe has an extensive breakfast menu which is served until 10:45. I had originally planned to go for breakfast but didn’t make it in time. Next time, I will start out earlier. I did pick up a blueberry scone and blueberry muffin, on the way out, and we enjoyed them for breakfast today. Club Car Cafe is a family run restaurant and Bianca and Ron made me feel so welcome. If you’re in the West Concord area, I would definitely recommend having breakfast or lunch at the Club Car Cafe. If you have a little train lover, he/she will enjoy seeing the real trains going by as well as the toy train set , high up on the wall, traveling round and round the restaurant. The menu is extensive and I am fairly certain the Club Car Cafe has a Childrens menu. Handicapped access is something I always look for. There is a ramp on one side of the building!“

“wondeful dining experience, highly recommend Oak & Orchard, great food and atmosphere five star experience! Will definitely go back ❤️“

“Our house special was PERFECT tonight. Perfect!“

“I hosted my daughter’s bridal shower this past weekend with the help of Stephanie and her staff and cannot recommend their service enough! The food was delicious, the area was beautiful, and the staff was incredible. Thank you again for everything!“

“Anna's food feelings like mom's home cooking. She knows exactly how I like my food and remembers me everyday. She greets me like an old friend. She always makes sure I am fed and is very aware of my allergies. I will always recommend this place.“

“My colleagues and I visited this establishment directly following our performance at GrotonFest, which was held nearby. The staff was very courteous and obliging. Lauren, our server, was particularly pleasant. We shared some lighthearted conversation, and our food was served promptly. The meal was substantial, the staff was friendly, and the view was extraordinary. The Rusty Randoms highly recommend Forge and Vine!“

“Today I went into Johnson’s with my dad! He was having a hard day today! He was a little confused the staff inside Johnson’s could not be more accommodating! I so very thankful for your kind hearts 💕 and patience! My father loved his lunch and the Sundae!!!“

“Love the local musicians every Friday night! SUPPORT LOCAL!“

“We were in search of an upscale pub and chose The Horseshoe Pub won out over our second choice (O'Connors), mainly because it featured 80 beer taps... EIGHTY! \nWe opened our meal, of course, with pints (a wheaty Weis beir for me to followed by a mundane but always tasty Guiness). The for of us shared apps of rueben egg rolls and German pretzels. Two of us ordered the Shepard pie which was tasty but noticably short of the requisite vegetables. One of us enjoyed a very well prepared plate of short ribs over mashed potatoes and fresh steamed veggies. Dark gravy to taste. Rave review for the fall-off -the-bone short ribs. Passed on dessert. \nA very pleasant experience with great service, ample parking, a wide wide variety of food, clean rooms and tables with plenty of space at each and a killer bar separate from the dining spaces. Reasonable value for fare on offer. \nOne caveat with of mention. Three of the four of us ate the rueben egg rolls and had upset stomachs afterwards. They were delicious but disagreed with our normally caste iron tummies. Don't know if it was the egg rolls or the sauce that they came with but they were the only dish we three shared in common. \nThis restaurant worth a visit and especially appropriate for groups of friends looking for a nice night out. \nNot specifically an Irish pub but Slante' anyway!“

“Food was delish,service was excellent.“

“First, my apologies for not posting this sooner.

We had a Day-After brunch last month following our Class of 75 reunion the previous evening. I had reserved space for twenty, but only half of us were able to attend.The outdoor seating was perfect as was the weather. The service and food were excellent (I have been going about avocado toast all wrong...that was wonderful).

Anyway, my classmates and I enjoyed our time together there. I would not hesitate to go there again.

Thank you“

“Great place for a Friday afternoon drink and app! Bartenders are great!“

“We usually sit at the bar and get immediate service. The bartender last night even remember us from a few months ago. She remembered what we drank. My sister ordered the same as last time and I ordered a slightly dirty Tito’s martini with a special request for bleu cheese stuffed olives. They were perfection! We both ordered the ahi tuna with avocado and jasmine rice. Omg it was to die for. I can’t wait to go back and order it again. I wish I could remember the bartender’s name so I could give her a shout out!!! All it says in the receipt is server: PM.“

“There’s always a first time, and for me, it was at this 99 Restaurant in Hudson. Overall, it was a pretty good experience. Locals (and yes, I’m using the word just to mirror how Americans affectionately refer to the rest of the world’s population in their native places) probably don’t need an introduction to this chain. But for anyone unfamiliar, think of it as a Chili’s with a bit more dining space beyond the bar or an Outback without the grilled steaks.

The food is solid, with comforting options that cater to hearty appetites. I was curious about what sets 99 apart from similar chains like Applebee’s, and the answer I got was simple: “They think they’re better and charge more.” While neither is glaringly obvious, the menu does offer a few standout dishes, like the Shepherd’s Pie - a refreshing option compared to the usual burgers and fried food lineup.

Next time, I’ll try sitting at the bar - it looks like the kind of spot where this place really shines. For a casual, satisfying meal, 99 in Hudson is worth a visit.“

“Had the Cesar salad, it was pretty good (a little overdressed for my taste). The service was very slow considering we were only 2 of 4 people at the bar. Overall not a bad place if you don't feel like going out, but if you have another option, I would probably pick it.“

“1st time customer just passing through. Food and service were outstanding!! Great gem worthy of a visit, will definitely be back!! 5+ Stars“

“Food is fabulous. Service is outstanding!“

“Great staff and the food snd drinks are amazing and delicious!!!“

“Wonderful! Great chicken sandwich on amazing bread! Friendly helpful staff. A true joy to find this place and have lunch. This place is very special indeed.“

“Milford - First time in, did not love what I ordered and not only was it taken off our bill, but the manager gave us a $25 gift card to come back…that’s excellent customer service which impressed us. Flatbread was excellent, waitress was very kind and attentive and lots of local teens working which was really nice to see. Can’t wait to come back! ❤️“

“Thank you to Bolton Street Tavern who hosted the most beautiful celebration of life. The food was delicious and John and Sharon made sure that each and every guest there was taken care of. The setting was perfect with the beautiful lake in the background. And even the downpour of rain that passed by did not bother a soul as it was all covered. Lovely spot, great food, and most of all amazing staff! If you have not been there you must check it out!❤️❤️❤️“

“Best staff and vibe in Marlborough! My favorite spot!! 🥰“

“Great place great food and great people 👌🥂🍾“

“Great breakfast food and service. Seating is limited by small size of restaurant. Clean rest room. Veggie omelet was very large. Comes with toast and home fries. Coffee was hot and never had to find someone for a refill.

Vegetarian options: Lots of add on. Veggies, beans, rice, toast , pancakes etc.“
