“ok, so I'm not sure what happened tonight, but a far different experience from a few weeks ago. Then Iwas impressed with service, food, cocktails. the whole experience was just wonderful last time. after that girls night out, I raved to hubby "we got go there!" I work in Leominster, but live 45 mins away, so we usually dine out more local to home. Tonight started with an espresso martini...well, they've decided to top it with a cold foam type of topping. so the whole top have inch of the glass is foam, not beverage. martinis are expensive, a martini should be brim full, disappointed and felt cheated for the price. I ordered their boneless "jumbo chicken wings". turned out to be 6 little chunks of chicken, not much bigger than mcnuggets, and they were way over cooked to the point they were rock hard. I had to discreetly remove some from my mouth because they were beyond rock-hard. a dining companion in the group had the same experience with hers.the sauces I chose to accompany were tasty, but they didn't do much to help the chicken. the female bartender was great, attentive, and happy. wish I could rave, but not this time sadly.will try again because I don't think this was normal“

“Been coming for 30+ years. Never had a bad meal but the chicken piccata is so good I have never ordered anything else for years. I don’t even order it as a dish at any other restaurant.“

“Food was Okay, but our server Yariel, was amazing! He was nice, terrific, and even hilarious. He showed genuine care about our table. Even when the food was mediocre. He made the experience a 5/5 Stars. Wish I can happen everytime I go to a restaurant. Nice job Yariel, keep it up!“

“Mike’s pizza was an obvious choice when staying for a couple days at Great Wolf Lodge. It was less than 10 minutes from the facility, had an easy online order option, and was a fraction of the inflated-resort pricing at the park. Our large order, right before close, was executed to perfection. The owner met me at the counter, and had a pleasant conversation about the history of his shop, and how long he’d been operating out of that building. The atmosphere was great, and I would absolutely go back if we come to town again.
The food was spectacular and the portions were phenomenal. We had a couple specialty pizzas, a couple orders of boneless chicken, and jalapeño poppers. Everything was great when we first got it, and was just as good cold the next morning when we finished the leftovers we had.“

“I just had the best toasted turkey sub I’ve ever had! He does a great job !“

“This steak and cheese is top tier. It was hard to choose which one, so I ordered the MisSteak. 👌 in my top 3 and tied for first.“
