“We previously been to the Concord location 3 times for pre theater dinner. We liked it very much. But it is LOUD. The Newton location is very close and convenient to our home. We finally scored a reservation. The food was the same excellence we were expecting. The service was better. Our server was the perfect amount of attentive. The noise level was much more manageable. It is a small and crowed space. It is noisy. The noise level in Concord is almost overwhelming. This was no where that loud. Clientele ranged from families with small children to the very elderly. The only negative was we found the valey attendant to be rather rude. Waving his arms and shooing us away. That's fine. I don't allow valet to touch my car.
You need to plan ahead of time if you wasn't to have dinner here. Same day reservations for dinner time are hard to come by.“

“Food, drink’s & service are all amazing!“

“One of my favorite restaurants in the area for a night out with friends, especially when we are meeting partway between Boston and western suburbs. The food is really delicious, the drinks are great, and the service is attentive. It can get a little loud, but you can definitely still have a conversation. Don’t miss the focaccia and ricotta, but the pizza and pasta are also always outstanding. So are the salads. This place is just really solid.“

“Best meal of the year there last night, and we were in Paris for a week in March! The charred broccolini with tonnato sauce appetizer is to die for, I may have to order three portions next time. But the scallops, the sole, and the fig tart were also delicious, making it hard to choose a fave. Once again, this restaurant earned its place as our go-to for special occasions.“

“Food and atmosphere wonderful!! Just went for 3 rd time in few mos. I read another woman s email re: our server 'Alejandro'( on 2 nd visit) he was efficient, social and engaging. Couldn't get him this 3 rd time!?!( came in later). Would highly recommend this space; we plan to come frequently as meeting place for ' Friends Birthdays!' Thank you..... Tina Lisien“

“Went in for my birthday dinner. Service was great and the food was fantastic. Will definitely be back again.“

“Beautiful interior and food was amazing. The staff and bartenders were very attentive as well.“

“Came in today with the family, and we were admittedly quite impatient. The host was so incredibly articulate and she made our culinary experience ten times better. Highly recommend Emily, she is phenomenal at her job and we will come back!!“

“This is our new GO TO place! We are Italian so we are hard to please when it comes our Italian dishes. This place is the BEST Italian (home cooked) meal! You will not be disappointed! Fresh, tasty and service was great also! Make sure you make reservations as they book up quick! You will NOT be disappointed!“

“This was our first visit. The restaurant has plenty of natural light, space and free parking in back. Our meals were delicious and the portions are very generous! I especially enjoyed the peach panzanela salad and chicken marsala. The service was on point. We will be back!“

“Excellent food and service!!!“

“Local family owned gem. Great service, Amazing food.“

“Never been disappointed with the menu choices and even their Specials they offer for day to day afternoon lunch, appetizers in the later afternoon and the evening option of specials and of course their red wine sangria is the best 🍷👍. Thank you also to the friendly atmosphere and staff! Love live entertainment on Wednesday evenings but maybe perhaps On a Saturday afternoon/evening where I would love to sit outside with family or friends! Thanks again ~ this girls loves the sauce too which is why I always make a purchase and the holidays when my husband is able to purchase gift cards for some of his customers ~ woohoo“

“The food here is the best. Huge options for even the toughest critic. Also have take home & make options. Prices are really good for the amount & quality of the food. I live near some very expensive Italian restaurants & their menus iare skimpy comoared to the choices at Strombolis. The iwner is always friendly, showing his appreciation to his customers. Like in any restaurants even in top notch sometimes an order is wrong but open your mouth & the owner will make it right. Been coming here for years. Atmosphere is like a pizza joint but dont let it fool you. The atmosphere keeps the prices reasonable“

“I have been coming here for fifty years even when I have lived far away. High quality food, reasonable prices, friendly staff. It is a vestige of the Lexington of my childhood.“

“My all time favorite place to eat, from the great food to the wonderful staff you can't go wrong enjoying a meal at Amici's.“

“Always friendly, timely and food is consistently delicious! Love how big their large pizzas and salads are. Highly recommend you support this local business.“

“Please has been awesome for many years. Keep up the good work great food great atmosphere, and the service is top-notch. Last night was a crazy busy night for them and they did a great job.“

“Didn’t get a before photo but the after photo tells the story!! The Market Al Fresca in Tewksbury - four cheese lasagna - I don’t usually comment on other peoples lasagna because I like mine BUT this was absolutely delicious, so tasty and packed with cheese. Half of this tray fed three adults (it’s about a 6x9 tray) I can’t wait to try some of their other dinner offerings! I might never cook again!!! And they had gluten free offerings also. Of course I left with just baked bread still warm snd dessert as well. TRy it out I don’t think you will be disappointed!!!“

“Evviva is one of my favorite local casual dining spots. The food and atmosphere are great. Plenty of TV's to watch a game if that's your thing. The beer and drink selection are great.

On my most recent visit. I had Grace as my server. She was outstanding. Very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. I have a dairy allergy so an italian style restaurant can be a challenge. The menu changes seasonally but she was able to help me identify the things that I could eat. The rolls with the olive oil/herbs were so good. I ended up getting a pizza (without cheese). It had, pepperoni, onions, and cherry peppers. It was very good.

If you in the area, I would definitely suggest checking it out!“

“Friendly service. Excellent Quality.“

“The food and service was outstanding. We were greeted by the owner,John Testa, he oversees the whole operation. Huge portions, a well balanced plate (not too heavy on the pasta) the Italian Chop Salad for two can feed four. The waitstaff are friendly and efficient. Looking forward to going back .“

“I really enjoy going here with my family. The pasta, the pizza and the cannolis were absolutely delicious. The owners are delightful and so kind!
We come here often!
Only got a picture of the cannolis but everything here is amazing!“

“I and my husband had a dinner yesterday and food was delicious, Angelo, our server was excellent, real pro. The restaurant by itself gave us a feeling of the real Italy. Thank you!“

“Very family Friendly as well has a Very Nice Bar-Everything i have had is Superb-Large portion-The bingo on Tuesday is alot of Fun!!“

“We had our rehearsal dinner at The Chateau in Waltham, MA, and they were absolutely wonderful. When our rehearsal ran faster than expected, they were incredibly accommodating and were able to seat our group early. Highly recommend it if you are looking to hold a private event or rehearsal dinner. The Tuscany room was perfect for our group of 20!“

“My family and I stopped in last week to have dinner 5 of us(3 adults 2 children). The place was extremely busy and there were 2 servers on (1 male and 1 female). We had the male as our waiter. Anthony is a great kid but he was very overwhelmed. He had made a several mistakes with our order. My husband started to get angry with the multiple mistakes that he wanted to just leave. He got up to go look for a manager (no manager in sight) but came back to the table with everything we needed except his drink that was NOT correct twice. But he had a smile on his face and a few seconds later the waitress from the other side (whom had every table taken) came over with a tray of our drinks. I was upset at my husband for bothering her, as I said I don’t believe she had one open table. But she came over with a big smile and handed us our drinks. She was so funny, patient,extremely nice and professional. She could have refused to help and nobody would have blamed her, but she didn’t! After our interaction with Erin we couldn’t help but to watch her fly around the dining room with a smile not only handling her side but helping Anthony as well. I’m writing this review because I want your company to realize what an absolute asset you have with this young lady. Erin is one of the best waitresses we have seen in a while, just watching her work was amazing and as busy as she was still helping her coworkers. We will definitely be back but will insist on Erin being our waitress! Thank you Erin for turning around our bad experience at Bertucci’s! And Bertucci’s I hope you take care of this girl she is the perfect example of a great waitress and top notch in customer service!“

“2nd visit to your restaurant in the past month comments - the Bar Tender was not very friendly or welcoming - not ignoring customers but not intuned , Like " Hello I'll be right wth you " 2nd small item is the knives - not sharp where they need to be - time for some replacements Thanks“

“Yesterday was the first time we tried the pizza at Pizzeria Enzina...Wow... and we are so glad we did. My husband and son ordered a calmelized onion and red pepper version and I tried the vegan veggie pizza. We were thrilled at how delicious each slice was and we loved everything, from the taste of the dough to the generous amount of toppings and how incredible the vegan cheese on mine tasted so amazing...yes my husband and son both swiped slices of mine... it was that good. So happy we found you Enzina....my new favorite ....can't wait to try other dishes and the canoli too!!! We are so grateful for such a wonderful meal!!“

“Stopped on a whim on the way home from the airport with a family member. Ordered the garlic bread, chicken broccoli alfredo, eggplant parm w/ alfredo sauce and tiramisu. The food was amazing! I can’t remember having a better tiramisu anywhere else. I wish I lived closer I would definitely be there on a regular basis. Set up is not typical, you order at the counter and they bring you the food. But you get your own drink from a cooler or iced water, silverware, napkins and bus your own dishes. So I was a little off put that I tipped 20% to do all the service myself. Staff was friendly and did give us to-go boxes when we asked for them. Would definitely recommend!“

“Just came from El Forno. Lunenburg had a pepperoni and pepper pizza. It was by far the best pizza I have ever had since the old days at the European in the northend. Great job Michael and crew always.“

“Annie is the most awesome bartender.she is so personable and helpful it was a great experience in Waltham“

“Everything Is So Great Here. The Hot Sausage Brings Me Back To When I Was A Kid. They Are Fantastic!!“

“The pizza was great! The kids asked to come back the next time we’re in the area. They were impressed with the size of each slice! - Franchesca - Rochester, NY“

“There are so many average pizza places, But not this place!
The pizza is delicious ! From the tasty crust, the great sauce and delicious cheese!
Also we picked up a tuna sub which is white tuna and an Italian sub, ALL SOOOO DELICIOUS!
Also they sell you a full sized sub when so many places have cut down the size, Not these folks!
10 stars if I could give that!“

“Casa D'italia was a huge part of my childhood. I lived at 177 Newton Street in the pink house on the corner, and my mother often sent me to get your subs (the most amazing). I definitely need to come back. I haven't been back since the house fire.“

“Great little hole in the wall pizza shop, it's the best pizza in the area out of the 5 places I've tried. The crust is top notch, crispy like North end italian style and the sauce, cheese and meats were all good quality and cooked to perfection. This is now my go to place for pizza in the area.“

“Been going to place for a very long, since Polaroid days my absolute Are their Calzones. more specifically is the Italian Calzone, I can eat it all day.“

“Dinner at Villa Roma is always exquisite! The food is so good. Having been raised in a South American household whose father was raised in Argentina, I love a great steak "asado". And the entrana and filet did not disappoint! Both were cooked to perfection - full of mouth watering flavor. I can't wait to go back and eat it again and again. My only "issue" was that we happened to sit down for our reservation at the same time that a company/corporation was having some kind of dinner. There was a long dinner table of at least 40 people in front of us and that definitely slowed down our service. I'm sure our server is normally a great server who pays more attention to all of his tables nightly. But he was definitely having to take care of the other large party before checking in with us to see if we needed anything. Not necessarily his fault - we just happened to be there on a very busy night where it was all hands on deck taking care of this other huge party. We kind of got lost in the shuffle but the food made up for every bit of it and I still highly recommend Villa Roma to everyone I speak to!“

“We came from out of town,and we came here for lunch. The food was delicious,and the owner has been very kind to my elderly relative. He treats her like he would treat his own mother. The waitresses were very kind and attentive. Will return again at the end of summer.“

“Stopped here after work. Never been. Chicken pesto panini with hots.. OMG it was a revelation! Hands down the best Sandwich I've had in a long time. Got it to go, half of it didn't make it out of my parking spot. They were quick affordable and absolutely outstanding! I will be back!“

“I hadn't been to Sweet Basil in a while and my friend and I decided to give it a go. I had forgotten how beautiful the decor and ambiance was. We sat at the bar and were warmly greeted by the host as well as Caroline, our bartender. She made us two perfect martini's to the rim, and brought us out a complimentary dish from the chef which was fantastic (I think it was fried chickpea flour in the shape of a very think fry. They also brought us out complimentary bread and focaccia as well as home made pesto. We ordered the meatballs (the best I've ever had, and my wife is Sicilian). We then shared the Chicken Parm which had the most amazing chunky sauce packed with flavor along with homemade rigatoni! This by far was one of the best meals I've had in a while! Sweet Basil will now go in our rotation of weekly restaurants to visit.“

“The food is 10/10. Old ownership wasn’t impressive, but the pizza here is 10/10. Highly recommend !!“
