Been dining here for years. The owners Steve and Trinka treat you like family. Drinks and food are both impeccable. Dining outside in the summer is lovely. It’s home away from home for us.

Ordered from the catering menu for an office party. The food was fabulous and the staff super accomodating and helpful. Top notch service. All of the food was great but the buffalo ckn mac & cheese was the stand out. Highly recommend.

Great restaurant food is always good. Dishes are made to order and everything is fresh. The pizza in my opinion is the best in Hingham. Owners are always on premises and very welcoming.
There is outdoor seating during the Spring,Summer and Fall.

Honestly the food is decent but service is lacking. Showed up and stood there waiting for takeout I had called in a long while before. After 30 minutes of sitting there and being ignored the girl tells me the slip didnt print and it will just be another few minutes. Another 20 and here I am waiting on one appetizer and one entree. Brutal. Hate to give a bad score but nothing worse than someone not just communicating the issue so that I could go run an errand or just do anything but sit here wondering…

I usually love this place. Waited for table then server has friends come which bumped my place in line for a table. The hostess sat us at the end of the bar next to the barrel where the people continued to throw things away, and they splashed me when they threw something away. If only they followed the order of who is up next for a table. I was looking forward to a nice experience after a long hot week.

The Bistro is a great place to eat before or after seeing a movie right next door at The Shipyard Theatre.

They easily have the best pizza in Hingham, in particular, the plain old cheese and the buffalo chicken pizza are outstanding. They obviously have dedicated and friendly owners and staff that I see every time I show up. The only thing that hurts them is the location which can be cold in the middle of winter. I'd like to see some adjustments to the entrance to try to make it less drafty. With that being said, in the summer this turns to an asset and that you can have really good pizza by the water.

Truly awful customer service.I asked for a pizza with ricotta and mushrooms. We went back-and-forth over the exact type of pizza.Finally I said “okay, then I’ll do the mushroom pizza but no truffle oil.”She gave me a pizza that absolutely had truffle oil on it. I brought the pizza back and said “you sure this has no truffle oil?” She said “no I made sure.” I said “it smells and tastes like truffle oil.” She insisted it wasn’t truffle oil.I tried to eat another bite or two, thinking, if she was so sure, maybe my mind was playing tricks on me. No, it was truffle awful!!!!I brought it back again and said “okay, it absolutely has oil on it and it tastes like truffle oil. You can SEE the oil on the arugula.” She insisted it was olive oil they had doused the pizza with (which would be an odd thing to do anyway, but no, this wasn’t olive). I said “okay. Put it this way: I don’t like the pizza and I can’t eat it.” She just smiled and said “well I made sure it wasn’t truffle.”I left and threw the pizza out in the trash in front of their store.What kind of establishment doesn’t remedy an issue? I returned the pizza with what two bites taken out? Three? And I came back TWICE because it was so bad, and it’s hard to make pizza taste bad.For customer service alone, don’t go here. They are SO rude.Update: after I left, I had to dig out my benedryl because, sure enough, it was truffle. I called and told them it did give me allergic reaction and that I want a refund.The lady said “I was gonna give you a refund but you ran out!” I have two dislocated knees. There was no running. Also, I had come back in twice. By the second time, good customer service would have said “you know what, if you are concerned, let’s make it again or give you a refund.” In fact, truly good customer service would have double-checked with the kitchen the first time I brought the pizza back.Mistakes happen, and they are an opportunity to wow a customer with how you handle things when you make a mistake. I wouldn’t give a one star review for a mistake. There was zero offer or remote attempt made toward giving me a refund until I called and asked for one.Then the lady tells me to come in a THIRD time to get a refund. When I enter, she just smiled and said “oh you didn’t have to come back in!” (Which she had asked me to do on the phone). “I refunded it to the card you used.”I can think of no other word for this woman, but nasty. If she isn’t the owner, her supervisor should, at the very least, have words with her. Uniquely atrocious service.Check my other reviews. I review A LOT. I don’t often give a place a one star review. If I do, it’s for a good reason.
