Restaurants in Framingham

“Scott gave us fantastic service! He appeared to be the only server this afternoon but you would never know it—he was so quick and attentive. He put us at a quiet table as requested, then got our order right in, refills on drinks, rolls, and then automatically got us a second pizza to take home as he said the first one didn’t come out the way he wanted it to.. we were so lucky to have him today—thank you Scott for giving us such a wonderful dining experience!!”

“The food was outstanding ,passion fruit margarita was as good as the food we ordered. The inside was very cozy and clean, our waiter was very polite , quick to attend and very professional. Great place to enjoy with friends and family , definitely coming back soon!”

“Summary: get the corned beef hash. If you didn’t get the corned beef hash, you did it wrong. Order again. It’s the only photo I’m attaching to this review, because you need to focus like a freaking laser. Don’t be distracted until you have ordered something containing this hash. My fave breakfast joint is on Vancouver island in Canada. My second favorite to this point was in Tucson. I have had a lot of breakfasts. I have had a lot of corned beef. If you aren’t ordering the corned beef here, you will be judged. It’s why people don’t consider going vegetarian. When you pass away, whether or not you had this corned beef will be factored in to how your life is measured. Get the hash.”

“We found Rasoi through Doordash and I am so so glad we did. The butter chicken was spicy and full of flavor. The Goan tofu curry was silky and we loved the garlic Naan and jeera rice. Best Indian food around hands down. can't wait to try all the dishes.”

“Great Mexican food, awesome guacamole. Extremely fresh, non- greasy. Pricing reasonable. Lots to choose from, great to have a place like this around here.”

“Amazing food and service .highly recommended must visit …everyone we ordered was delicious”

“Tara was a great server, and the food was amazing (as always)! :)”

“Very good variety of flavors, I come here every week and am always trying something new. Great customer service and the quality of the Acai and ice cream is next level. Best Acai spot in ”

“Fantastic food, a real deal margarita and even better service. Always leave happy, definitely our go to stop for mexican.”

“Absolutely outstanding restaurant !! Top notch food. I mean a 10 out of a 10 👍 The hostess was very welcoming and the waiter was phenomenal. The host ran after me when I forgot the left over cannoli. I won’t even talk about the cannoli you can see for yourself.”

“Muy crujiente y delicioso”

“Stumbled into this restaurant today by accident, and left wondering how soon I could get back there. Absolutely the best-tasting food I have ordered in most of New England. The servings are generous, the menu extensive, the ingredients fresh and perfectly seasoned. One of our group is a picky eater and she couldn’t get enough of her veggie burrito. My grilled eggplant sandwich was to die for, and another at our table ordered the portobello sandwich, which she declared superb. The owner/host and a new employee could not have been more accommodating. This is a very clean, unassuming place, a real gem. Coming down from Vermont - the land of vegetarians - I went back wishing we had this great place where I live.”

“We had the absolute best experience at Boteco do Manolo. The food was simply amazing, large portion sizes and wonderful service. Highly recommended”

“Pizza is too salty. Most of the ingredients contain lots of sodium so try to cut down on the added salt”

“Always great food and service!”

“everything about this place is so good. I first got on DoorDash when I was just looking for some good Korean food and I found my new favorite spot and it’s only been three days and I’ve ordered here four times already. It is so good. The portions are great.”

“son muy ricos y bariado su menu , los recomiemdo atienden muy bien , los recomiendo”

“I love it here! My husband and I come here regularly for lunch and sometimes for dinner too when we have friend sir family visiting. The sushi is always fresh and well prepared and I also really like their Curry Pork Katsu Box.”

“Un ambiente elegante y muy relajado, con un menú delicioso, lo mejor de la noche para mi fue el plato de Salmón, estaba espectacular, la atención excelente, la amabilidad de la persona que nos atendió increíble, en español y portugués, nos sentimos a gusto de verdad, volveremos muy pronto👌”

“just had one of the best dinners I have had in a long time..the server was (Evan) superb..the food (veal parm) was outstanding..the salad is always great..I really appreciate great Italian food and this was wonderful..”

“Love LOVE THE FOOD Service was amazing also ❣️⭐🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I would suggest it for anyone have a lot of good food to choose from ❣️”

“I was not impressed. Boneless spareribs were way too sticky and some were burnt. Like other restaurants now there prices have gone up a bit much. Also they are bit off Rte 9 and I think there are other places that are of better quality. I would only give this 3 stars.”

“Comida boa excelente atendimento. Muito obrigada pela sua atenção Tatiana. 👏👏👏👏”

“Exceeded our expectations! We had the cheesy breadsticks and mushroom vegetarian pizza. We didnot expect the quantity of breadsticks to be as large as a pizza! It was delicious and hot and the cheese was delicious! The pizza was delicious, crust was super soft and the cheese was creamy and tasty. It was oozing and the mushrooms were well cooked. Only thing we didn’t enjoy was the tomatoes on the pizza(were too big) but other than that the pizza itself was delicious and we would love to go back again and again just to have it! There’s customization options so you can also tailor as per your needs. There’s enough seating room and it’s not too loud. Overall a comfortable atmosphere”

“Kens steak house is a metro west gem! The reasonably priced meals, quality of the food, and very friendly wait staff. This is my wife and my “go to” restaurant when we want a great meal at a reasonable price, When you waking into Kens it feel “comfortable” like it’s your own home . The wait staff are so friendly and patient. They never rush you and are very knowledgeable about the menu. The steaks are the specialty of the house. Each time we’ve had steak it was cooked yo perfection! The drink prices are reasonable and the desserts taste home made! Great place and I hope they are around for many more years!!”

“Excellent service and food is awesome!”

“I’ve been living in Framingham for three years and yesterday I was hungry for Chinese food. Haven’t found any that I really really like in the area so I googled. I found this Restaurant called Star on Waverly Street.
I did not get a very big order, but I truly enjoyed all of it. The beef with scallions reminded me of my childhood and going to South Pacific in Newton.
All of the appetizers were good. I’m looking forward to going back and trying many of your dishes.”

“Absolutely love their Paneer Tikka Biryani! Food can be on the spicer side but you can ask for milder version. Their weekend specials are refreshing and adds something new to their menu.”

“Amazing place. Churrasco Rodízio with Buffet very quality and cheap. I loved.”

“I went with my mom to Legal Seafoods, hoping it was as good as I remembered it from visits to its Boston location decades earlier. My feelings about the experience are mixed. On the one hand, the baked haddock we were served was fresh as could be, perfectly cooked, and lightly flavored with buttered bread crumbs and lemon. A consummate piece of fish. But the accompanying rice pilaf was banal, the steamed broccoli seriously undercooked and impossible to improve with olive oil we requested be brought to the table.
Service was impeccable. Sound level was unnecessarily loud. So it was a mixed experience and I’m not sure I’d go back soon.”

“This is the best Dunkin donuts in Framingham/Natick area.”

“Quick service and good fries.”

“I am born and raised in Framingham. This is the best thing I’ve ever seen. These people are clocked in. I just pulled up and I didn’t even stop at the window. It took me two seconds from the moment I put it in park. Oh yeah, I didn’t even put it in park. It was so fast guys great service five star everything”

“I happened to be in this part of Framingham and was looking for something quick and healthy for lunch. I wasn't sure a protein shake and a tea would fill me up, but I was mistaken. I wasn't hungry after. The shake was delicious, and the tea boosted my energy without the negative feeling of a caffeine/sugar buzz that energy sodas give you. Also, the owner, Mike, is very knowledgeable about nutrition and fitness. I've been back twice since discovering it. I can't wait to try more flavors.”

“Good dinner live music we had fun.”

“The best pupusas in all of Framingham. 😋”

“great menu selection and service! atmosphere is rather plain but it's clean and warm and bright so it's all good!”

“Great hotdogs and great service. They care about the community as well.”

“excellent service from veronica food and poritons are good”

“The best pupusas in all of Framingham. 😋”

“Fresh is the word!”

“The best ice cream and the nicest people”

“Steamy windows at our favorite Saxonville Cafe. The mocha lattes are our favorite - so rich and chocolatey. Great treat after a brisk walk at Cushing Park.”

“I love place! Cantinho do Brasil aqui na América.”

“Fourth visit and still the best diner I've ever been too. Classic old diner atmosphere, great price, and still only a five-minute wait for food. My only complaint is that Lloyd's gives too much food. After the meal I'm done for the day. Today three of us had to get the $13 special because it was such a great deal (3 large eggs, 5 pieces thick bacon, 3 huge sausage links, mountain of hash browns, choice of toast or English muffin). We took at least a pound or more of food home.”

“Cheese bread is fantastic. Great selection, something different every day. A lot of flans.. Love to have in the neighborhood”

“I love EVERYTHING they make!! Great people!!”

“This place does an awesome job when it comes to delivery. I have ordered from here a dozen times and the food is on point and everyone that works there does a great job. Keep up the great work just remember to send all my items though since there have been mistakes once the order is pulled everything should be pulled that on the receipt for delivery so it ready to go thank you!!”

“The menu is very authentic with fresh ingredients, excellent service, and reasonable prices. I stayed to eat where there's about three tables for patrons. It's a small restaurant where many do take out. The non alcohol Pina Colada was one of the very best i ever had! Good parking located in back of the restaurant. The Saxonville Village with in Framingham is a quaint place. The service in front and in the kitchen are hard at work, worth the stop!”

“I was looking for a new place with gluten free food after our usual place changed hands and went down in quality. We drove here all the way from Roslindale to order takeout because I wanted to be sure they understood how important it was to us . My daughter has Celiac and it was her birthday and she wanted Chinese.The owner took our order and we had a great conversation about the menu and her plans to add more gluten free items as they continually test them. The gluten free dumplings are OUTSTANDING!! We wished we ordered more ! My daughter had Crab Rangoon for the first time in her life. Her college friends were obsessed with them and she could never join in so she really enjoyed them! They were delicious! Nobody does chicken wings because they require a dedicated fryer . This place has them . I think they could be better . They have a coating on them that we didn't love . They aren't like typical wings but they were ok. We also got a noodle dish that was good . We didn't get rice but definitely would next time after talking to tho owner about the rice . She really has a passion for the food she is serving.I would definitely go back to eat in. The staff was pleasant and the restaurant is really pretty and relaxing. My daughter with celiac who doesn't typically like eating in said she would feel comfortable going back to eat in ... 10/10”

“Very nice atmosphere, food was very fresh tasting, definitely would go back.”

“Yes they have burritos quesadillas tacos Pupusas it really good !!!”

“this is definitely a must visit!
the food was delicious, the place is so clean and cozy. Esthela was such a sweetheart when she took care of us.
If you’re in Framingham go by for some of the best coffee in town.”

“The pizza is amazing!! Besides that I took my 79 yr old father and you can stay and eat. It’s handicap accessible. Bubba’s pizza is out of this world and his staff is so friendly and courteous. I recommend this place to kids and adults of all ages!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I had the best experience there this one lady asked us how everything was and she just took the time out of her day too just chat with my husband and I she truly made my day I never caught her name I hope She sees this through we were the couple from upstate ny”

“Magnificent!!! Have been going to this place for years( even when they were in saxonville) the food is spectacular and the owners are friendly!”

“Excellent clam chowder!
We also ordered the chicken and bacon rigatoni, the wings and a burger with Cajun fries. Everything was excellent. Burger made to order. Pasta perfectly cooked and everything was very well seasoned. Portions were amazing. We forgot to take pictures because we were really hungry.”

“I love this place � everything is so delicious”

“muy rico todo la atención de los empleados muy buena”

“Extremely friendly and accommodating staff. Fast service, good food and nice area”

“Opens at 10pm and I was hungry and food was amazingly delicious
I ordered hot and sour soup, shrimp fried rice, beef and broccoli.
I would say these foods were way over than the existing expectation.
I would visit to order different food next time. Highly recommend.”

“As far as traditional street foods go, this place has genuinely some of the best tacos I’ve had anywhere. Everything there is good but I’m addicted to their pastor tacos.(pork) You cannot find a better priced place that serves this kind of food that is as good as Rincon. Get the horchata too! It’s a small place so make sure you get there quick, also you might have some language barriers as there isn’t a whole lot of multi language speakers.”

“I love the pizza and the friendly staff. gracias por todo Anastasia! I have been a customer for 5 years and enjoyed every meal. thank you”

“all time favorite.... Black Forest...Ang sarap...thanks yumyumtea 🥤🥤🥤”

“Tried the biryani and grilled chicken both were absolutely amazing. The grilled chicken was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. Definitely one of the best meals I’ve had in a while.”

“En Boston massachuset”

“This place is a tiny little local restaurant with maybe 4 tables, and most of their business is take-out, but we had a great time. We went on a Saturday, so the special we had was roasted chicken with very crispy skin, with sides of rice, beans, cassava flour, greens, and fried banana (it was actual sweet banana, not plantain). We also had a beef pastel. So so so delicious! I'm going to be thinking about that chicken for weeks. Very nice people at the counter, and we navigated pretty well even with us not speaking much Portuguese and them not speaking a ton of English. Will go back here for sure!”

“A big breakfast to start your day with localized restaurant”

“What a cute little place! The food was absolutely delicious, every dish was full of flavor. The red curry is to die for! The service was excellent, and the server spoke very politely and was friendly, which made the experience truly enjoyable. One of the rear good Thai places you will find in Framingham Natick area. Fantastic ambience. Loved it!”

“It's basically a Brazilian food restaurant and the food are frash and taste really good and the place is simple but quite a good atmosphere! I love this place for coffee, lunch, snack and dinner! Americans are often seeing in this place. Worth a try!”

“A really great place to enjoy a tasteful Brazilian style meal. Very well served, food is made amazing and the staff is super attentive and friendly. I can really recommend this place!”

“The best ice cream and the nicest people”

“Can’t get enough of this place. Not only the variety of yummy bagels. The ice coffee is great when served with frozen ice coffee cubes. Doesn’t dilute your morning coffee. If you’re not a bagel person you must try their gigantic muffins. I jut live live live the blueberry!”

“excellent service from veronica food and poritons are good”

“My wife and I have been to multiple Olive Gardens over the years. But our experience today at the Framingham, MA restaurant was by far the best. It started at the entrance with Joseph greeting us with such friendliness and sincerity. Then it continued with Sylvia our waitress. She also was friendly and sincere, along with attentive. Joseph and Sylvia set the tone for a wonderful dining experience. I hope the general manager reads this review and relays it to Joseph and Sylvia. The food was delicious as always. The vanilla ice coffee was incredible.”

“Muy crujiente y delicioso”

“Food was excellent. Service was a little slow with one waitress seemingly handling the restaurant. It was a slow night. But, all in all, it was very good. Try the mixed grill. Delicious.”

“Great Mexican food, awesome guacamole. Extremely fresh, non- greasy. Pricing reasonable. Lots to choose from, great to have a place like this around here.”

“Love this place. I needed a sushi restaurant once I moved to Framingham and this spot is the best. Great drinks and food”

“Magnificent!!! Have been going to this place for years( even when they were in saxonville) the food is spectacular and the owners are friendly!”

“Very good variety of flavors, I come here every week and am always trying something new. Great customer service and the quality of the Acai and ice cream is next level. Best Acai spot in ”

“I love place! Cantinho do Brasil aqui na América.”

“Our Girl Scout troop met at the Framingham location for ice cream and a Valentine’s Day card swap. The staff was friendly and accommodating to our large, high-energy group. They had excellent food allergy protocols. Great ice cream and reasonable prices.”

“Employees are most times welcoming, aleays with good customer service.I am a customer here but also a dasher and Is aleays busy and extremely busy on weekends but they are most times pretty fast and acurate with orders.The only couple times I have had an issue manager Chris had run that extra mile to fix it.Also Ash, Gaby and another skinny manager not sure if his name Is Mikey had been Nice.”

“Natick peoeple swear this is supposed to be some high-end experience. Food was good obviously if you come towards the end the meat is dry but overall not bad. Work on keeping certain items fresh and staff looks a bit overworked but I would come again no problem”

“⚠️AVOID THE AREA!⚠️

This location started out strong but boy did things go downhill quickly. I don’t just mean in the usual way of getting “generous portions” from the staff, but also in quality of the food. Chipotle advertises “fresh” food but everything was soggy, chips were far from being done as they were chewy. Sour cream was more water than anything else. Staff seemed very much in a rush to get half a scoop into bowl as if it was timed. Quality of food and level of service was horrible, bad enough to not go back.”
