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!!”

“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.”

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

“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.”

“Manolo was definitely one of the better Brazilian restaurants we have tried in the New England area! We are so happy that our friends brought us here to try, complete with an extensive menu and gorgeous ambience with plenty of space. The filet mignon bites combo served in Brazilian Creamy Cheese Sauce with yuca fries was extremely tender and flavorful and absolutely delicious. The caipirinhas drinks (we tried the strawberry, lime, and passion fruit flavors) were all made to perfection as well. We'll definitely be back!”

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

“Very clean and welcoming environment. Food was amazing very delicious. The staff was respectful and very helpful as well I live a bit far but definitely worth the drive! Will be back soon”

“Muy crujiente y delicioso”

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

“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.”

“Great spot for quick, good meal!!”

“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..”

“This place is great! The service was amazing, especially from the gentleman that served me yesterday. He was very friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to ensure I enjoyed everything. The food was delicious and the patio is a great space. For a good drink, I recommend their Mai Tai! I would definitely go back.”

“Staff is friendly, the hams and turkey are delicious. Look forward to their specials every week.”

“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.”

“Star House has always been top notch for takeout Chinese. They do not do sit down service anymore but take out and delivery only. Food is very good, freshly prepared, and great value. I have been ordering there a few times a month for years and have tried many menu items and have always enjoyed my choices. Owner/staff are awesome.”

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

“I’ve been coming to University Pizza since 2013, back when I worked nearby and would eat here almost every day under the previous owners. Even after the ownership change, I still keep coming back because the food has remained consistently great.

Their Buffalo Chicken Calzone is my absolute favorite—the grilled chicken makes it stand out from anywhere else I’ve tried. The Chicken Broccoli Alfredo is hands down one of the best pasta dishes around, and I also highly recommend the chicken wings and the grilled chicken sub loaded with fresh veggies.

It’s rare to find a place that maintains the same quality and flavor for so many years. University Pizza has definitely earned my loyalty!”

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

“The sushi is amazing, both the grilled fish and the raw fish. I ordered karaage, which was the best fried chicken I've ever had (I've said this a million times, but Japanese styled fried chicken is the best fried chicken), and tonkotsu ramen which was very phenomenal. Just wish there was a option to order the drinks without ice.”

“Went in for dinner tonight and ordered the vegetable samosa, garlic naan, and goat fry biryani. Everything was so flavorful and the portions were large for the price. All of the sauces were amazing too, the green chutney with the samosas was my favorite. This was my first time going but I will definitely be going back!”

“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!!”

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

“Quick service and good fries.”

“ordered a big breakfast you screwed up only got hash brown coke do a better job”

“Foi tudo muito bom. Não tenho critica nenhuma , moro aqui ao lado e iremos mais vezes.”

“Had a wonderful shake and tea combo at Heart City. The owner made suggestions on what I would like from their long list of shakes based on my preferences and allergies. The tea was a great bonus! The shake kept me fueled while the tea was a great energy boost. Great stop!”

“The best pupusas in all of Framingham. 😋”

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

“It was so nice walking in and being greeted by Steven and his team. Steven was friendly, attentive and just had such a great attitude. We’re pretty particular about how we like our sandwiches made, and he actually listened and made them exactly how we asked, which doesn’t always happen at other Jersey Mike’s locations we’ve been to!

Steven also has a great sense of humor and upbeat personality. He had customers laughing, and you could tell his positive energy carried over to his team too.

I just wanted to give Steven, the rest of the team (sorry I didn’t catch everyone’s names!), and this location the recognition they deserve. Thank you all for taking such good care of us and making our sandwiches perfectly, especially cutting them open-faced and not all the way through, just how we like them! It’s the little things and great customer service that really stand out. We’ll definitely be back!”

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

“RUN RUN RUN to this magnificent little joint and order the chips and salsa- best salsa you'll have in Boston- and then order the tacos Al pastor. And THEN order some more.
I lived in LA for 23 years and I almost obsessively ate tacos Al pastor almost every single week. I can say without question that this is the very best Al pastor I have EVER HAD, and the salsa is right up there.
Friendly , family run. Adorably cozy inside, small about 5-6 tables.
This is going to be on weekly rotation.
Two MAJOR thumbs up me encanta”

“We had our first visit today and can't wait to go back! The soup dumplings were great. Pea pod shoots were so tasty. Weekend dim sum was fun to order from and fresh when it came out to the table. The servers were so friendly. This is definitely the best Chinese food in the area!”

“Lovely place! Very pleasant atmosphere, attentive staff, delicious coffee and chocolate chip cookies. The food that we did not sample looked very appetizing as well! Strongly recommend!”

“Best steak & cheese And Pizza 😍”

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

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

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

“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!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Yesterday we took our grandson to Chick-fil-A for lunch on his birthday. He enjoyed his food, eating his chicken nuggets, waffle fries, and fruit cup with his milk. While playing in the playroom, we noticed activity in the dining area and found out that today was decorate your own cookie day. We decided to stay for that while they were setting up we got a couple of ice creams to pass the time. We were encouraged by several associates to go up and get a cookie and decorate it. We took our cookies and our frosting and Sprinkles back to our table to work on them. My wife mentioned in passing to one of the associates that today was his birthday. With our cookies nearly complete, several associates showed up with a birthday cake with a candle lit and lead the restaurant singing, happy birthday. The bag of gifts that came with the cake were a big hit. But the bigger hit was the courtesy and attentiveness of the associates at Chick-fil-A. Thank you for making Ryder ‘s birthday a special one.”

“Melhor local brasileiro para curtir com a familia um bom almoco, jantar com a familia, um otimo ambiente para baladas e claro, um bar super cheio de atracoes para curtir com os amigos. Sao 3 ambientes de pura diversao... atendidmento otimo e sem contar a simpatia dos donos. #partiu135 😎”

“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!”

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

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

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

“I got the veg summer roll and the chicken pho. Loved both, but the chicken was definitely overcooked. Their portion size is pretty large, and I ended up eating left overs for 2 days.
I would request for half the noodle portion next time around - the broth is incredible, and I could just drink that all day long.”

“We absolutely love this place!! Best pizza in town and awesome sandwiches! People here are great!”

“We ordered the grilled chicken caesar salad and turkey sub with LTO & mayo. It was a simple order, but the ingredients were fresh and delicious! I thought the caesar dressing was really good and the chicken tasted great. I recommend, just make sure to bring cash when you go because that’s all they take.”

“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.”

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

“Delicious! What a delightful meal made better by a lovely chat with the women preparing and serving the food, one of their daughters, and fellow customers. It was like visiting the home of some new family friends.”

“I have been a customer of Red Barn for over 25 years it is not only close to my home it is my "go to" spot for my morning Latte or my afternoon Ice Coffee. The Pastry case is always filled with yummy fresh goodies and i am always greeted with a smile...4 Stars\n”

“I haven't been to the actual restaurant in a few years but always loved the food. Stopped at the food truck as a recommendation from a friend, and I was not disappointed by any means. Had the short rib sandwich, and it was large in portion size, cooked perfectly, and tasted delicious.”

“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.”

“I live near pizza wagon and order there frequently. They are reliable, good food, good price, and family operated and owned! One of my favorite parts is whenever I go in there the owners chatting up with all the customers as if he’s known them his whole life, real close community vibe. Love it. The entire menus amazing, but my recommendations are the cauliflower pizza, the buffalo tenders, and the American sub, literally never misses. -Assured Service Plumbing and Heating”

“Eu amo os salgadinhos da Mini Bites! I’m coxinha’s lover!!!!”

“This Dunkin never misses! The staff is friendly and the food and drinks always come out perfect and fast! ☕️ it’s inside Framingham state university McCarthy Center and it’s perfect for commuters and students.”

“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..”

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

“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!”

“amazinggg”

“We've been going to this Legal Sea Foods regularly for over 20 years and we always have a great meal. If you sit at the bar you will get the best service from Sergi and Katie. My favorite dish is the sole and the martinis are expertly prepared.”

“Our server Sam was very helpful and kind. She answered all of our questions and gave several helpful insights for food choices. She was fast, efficient and kept an eye on our drinks and our kids needs. Food was very good, especially the pizzas, beer and calamari. We will be back!”

“amazinggg”

“You walk into an intimate, cozy yet spacious atmosphere. The service is so good you feel you rented the place out. Our server checked on us 5 times before we even got our meals.

You start with the most amazing breadsticks which are unlimited.

You then go on to an unlimited salad which is equivalent to a salad you got at la cantina in 2001.

Andrew enjoyed a wonderful tour de Italy which was instagram quality presentation.

I frequent the chicken parmigiana

The menu is honest and doesn’t try to be pretentious in its vulnerability you soon realize everything looks great.

Within two bites you pull from references eating in the north end yet a thought creeps in… is this the better? And it is.

Olive Garden doesn’t reinvent the wheel they focus on nailing the basics with astounding quality.

As the server grinds fresh Parmesan cheese over your salad you start understanding your at home and your family.

The manager comes by and touches your table seeing how everything is going. Forum like quality from a Michelin star restaurant that the Olive Garden brings back to the common family man. I fact I can’t remember a manager checking on my partner and I our last 20 dinners out.

You then have the luxury of choosing from 3 seperate prepared entrees that are refrigerated you can bring them to go for $6 each. So I took care of my father and my homeless friend.

The bill comes and you are stuffed to the brim and ordered a total of 3 meals to go you figure it’s well over 130 but it’s $70 and you just fed a family of 5 while you didn’t just dine you got pampered like a haircut you don’t want to end.”

“ordered a big breakfast you screwed up only got hash brown coke do a better job”

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

“We frequently go to Chipotle, like genuinely atleast once a week. The difference in location between the Westborough location, the other Framingham location and this one— THIS ONE is the best, by far!! The other locations always seem to short you on proteins or rice. This one gives BIG portions of rice and proteins, delicious taste, and great customer service even when the line goes almost out the door.
LOVE IT!! Finally felt like we actually got our moneys worth.”

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

“I’m in town for work and visiting from Jersey, so I decided to give this place a try—and I’m so glad I did! The food was amazing, and the workers were incredibly kind and welcoming. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to next time I’m in town! ❤”

“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.”

“One of the best north Indian food I have had in the US. The vibe in the restaurant is very warm and welcoming which is complimented be the exquisite and tasty dishes they serve.”

“Ikigai was on my to-go list for a while and I’m so glad I finally went. I got there at opening and there was already a long line but I did not mind the wait it since it was in a lovely rose garden! I got a Vietnamese coffee and a strawberry matcha within 30 minutes of arriving. This was the best matcha I have ever had and the coffee was insanely good as well. I plan on being there every Sunday now to try everything!”

“The food is absolutely wonderful, and the lady behind it is incredibly creative! Her service is top-notch ♥ and the restaurant is sparkling clean …”

“My husband and I stopped by yesterday to check out the place and had a great conversation with the owners, Mike and Andrew, about their business model and their plans for the future. Very excited to see what comes next. We each had two pints, I had the Czech black lager and my husband had the IPA and the West Coast Pale Ale. All delicious! Mike also gave us samples of some of their other tap offerings which I liked (saki & yuzu, and hard tea). We will definitely be back!”

“Greek Yogurt is the absolute best! Fresh and rich in taste! Portion sizes could be a little bit more generous. 🥲 Highly recommend though.”

“Unique Brazilian Burger place burgers are big portion my first time trying a burger with corn potato fries and mozzarella cheese (only cheese option ) it was Good though very different from what im used to recommend kids fries food size portion 🙌🏾”

“What can be bad about cane’s. Newly renovated outdoor eating place and drive thru too. Plenty of room to sit and eat there or park your car and stuff your face in privacy.”

“No complaints here! Friendly service. My green goddess made to my specifications and with fresh ingredients. When asked for a side of olive oil for my focaccia, the staff obliged!”

“I'm editing my review a year later.
I recently came back and was PLEASANTLY surprised by the waitstaff. They could hear my order, took it, seemed to know what they were doing, and my quesidilla was very stuffed. Like the traditional Anna's I knew from college (20 years ago). I'm upping to 5 stars, very happy with changes and they got their stuff back together. Tasted great.”
