“AMAZING FOOD! And great staff!“

“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!!“

“After a friend raved about the chicken gyros at Famous Pizza, I quickly became a regular. Seriously, the gyros are the best I’ve ever had. Their pizza and calzones are great too. They have quickly become our family’s go-to for quick takeout and the owners are seriously sweet people, supportive of the community.“

“Fiorellas should more restaurants and takeout food with more food options. Special in wellsley all mass.“

“Quaint little place that feels authentic and coupled with fantastic service. The owner who works the bakery is very sweet and accommodates your requests. Bakery items are so tasty and you will come back for more. The display of flatbreads are extraordinary as they are lined up for your viewing. A must for breads and tasty treats. The custard filled bombolone is the best (and my favorite).“

“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..“

“you took all the Italian food that made you what you were, a great Italian restaurant. Now you are just another mediocre restaurant with hummus and meh food and $$$$$ Bad choice. Where is the gnocchi??? and everyone has veal and chicken parmesan... not impressed“

We're OG Gumba's as it gets, and we're never disappointed? try the De Parma Sub it's just short of a trip to Italy, but try anything even there pie is a mouth full of Amore'Grazzi Amico Meie,Jimmy and Banjo PadulaFranklin, MA“

“Service was amazing. Food was even better. Friendliest staff of any restaurant I’ve ever been to. I live in California and I’m coming back!“

“I am a frequent customer of this location, eat 2-3 days a week. used to love eating amato's as a kid best place to go to relive my childhood. Do have a problem with the young guy that works there twice now whenever he has had to make my sandwiches he has messed up. Refuse to order through doordash anymore and will only go in the store and order so I can watch him make my sandwiches. Not the sound rude but it's really not that hard to read Black ink on white paper on how to make a sandwich especially since I order the same thing every time I go in made the same way“

“Been stopping by here the last few months since I discovered this gem. Ordered catering for family Easter get together for 14 and could have easily fed 25! Everything was delicious, fresh, and they helped me carry it out to my car. Five stars all around and Thank you, Luca’s!“

“Restaurant 45 is one of the best I’ve been to in a while! I stopped in with my dad the other day and was happy we were able to grab a table. This wasn’t my first time at 45, I’ve had a graduation party there before. However, it did remind me I have to go back more often.

The restaurant itself is nice. Plenty of parking and lots of room inside of the building. They have many rooms for functions set up as well.

Our waitress was Nikki, and she’s fantastic. Great personality, bubbly, and helpful. I was very happy to have her! This night I ordered the chicken Loretta but had it over pasta. This was probably one of the best dishes I’ve had in a while. The pasta was cooked expertly, chicken was nice and crisp, and the ricotta mixture was the perfect amount of creamy. I would highly recommend Restaurant 45 to anyone who wants a great meal!“

“Wheeeeere to begin! A cute little establishment in a little plaza. Upon entering the staff was extremely friendly and attentive. The menu is bright and bold so there is not trouble reading it. Came in with my husband before we got ice cream to grab some buffalo wings. Sooooooooo glad I did! Them suckers were so dang good make you wanna smack ya mama! I’m known for my reviews taking a bite and this one won’t be different. We drove 45 minutes for some ice cream and ended up finding a little piece of BUFFALO HEAVEN“

“Great food,good pizza and great service 👍🏿“

“I was recommended Marinho's by some people in the gym when I was asking around for a good local calzone... I was absolutely pleased with my purchase the other week (A buffalo chicken calzone w/ bacon) as it was SUPER delicious! A superb first purchase. The dough was phenomenal and the ingredients within the calzone were tasty. Taste and quality wise, this is probably one of, if not, my favorite local calzones around now... Quantity-wise for it's price point, in respect to other places I've gotten take out from, it could be a little larger/heavier! It is a long style of calzone, not wide or round... But taste-wise, Marinho's absolutely takes the crown for me! The dough is what really made this calzone great, as well as all the ingredients within. I recommend giving it a shot, and I may just have to try out their pizza next.“

“The food was just as I remembered“

“Got there large cheese for $6 on my way home today. Wow! Great deal for sure.“

“New to the area and had a hard time to find the right sub shop and a good roast beef! I’ve been here twice now and have been so impressed both times. The roast beef sandwiches are like the north shore(IYKYK) and the salads are so so good! They give you pita bread that tastes like pizza dough. So happy they are local.“

“Best pizza i have ver taste.
The owner of th4 restaurant is really a good guy and knows to talk to people
I recommend this place to anyone around, it is really a very nice place and the crew there is super nice and chill 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!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We had an issue with Grub Hub, and ended up having the restaurant cancel the order (ordered large but they only had the small dough at the time, which I didn’t think would feed the family, they were very obliging in canceling) we ordered from Papa Gino’s which was more money, and honestly not great, my son (ASD and ARFID) didn’t like it and refused to eat because it was cold. Rocco’s then delivered a large caramelized onion, and gave it to us for free (we owe you a double tip next time, my husband forgot in the confusion). My son immediately dove in eating the onions off the piece and the rest of the piece of pizza. You have made a customer out of us. Not only because of the excellent customer service but the food was very good and reasonably priced. Can’t wait to try some of the other dishes as well, due to the reviews.“

“Most of food is great! The pizza, the chicken parm, and the chicken broccoli. The only thing I don't care for is the sausage lasagna. We have eaten here several times and loved it. We have also held two large group parties here. We rented a private room and did buffet style food. The service has always been wonderful. The private rooms are great! I cannot recommend Prezo enough for a private party. A couple weeks ago we had Eddie serving our private party. He was FANTASTIC! He was attentive, funny, and polite. Absolutely wonderful!“

“We sell so many of these delicious gluten free shells at our shop, The Cannoli Stop, in Concord NH. Our gluten free customers love them!! Best Gluten Free dessert we have! This shell compliments our homemade 36 creamy cannoli fillings! Thank you so much for helping us bring such a delicious treat to our gluten free customers!“

“Delicious Italian sub, one of the best I’ve ever had!“

“Freshest foods-friendly staff members. Be sure to try amazing italian sandwiches, delicious buffalo chicken pizza, scruptious mozzarella sticks and toasted ravioli, in addition to their veggie wraps and chicken salad......and don’t forget the GELATO for dessert!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Dining Experience From the very first moment we stepped into 3, we knew the night was going to be special. We were immediately welcomed by the manager, Elyse, whose professionalism, warmth, and genuine hospitality set the tone for the entire evening. The atmosphere was inviting, comfortable, and perfectly balanced between upscale and relaxed—and the staff mirrored that energy from start to finish. Our service was truly outstanding: friendly, knowledgeable, attentive, and always pleasant. Every question we had was answered with confidence, and the recommendations were spot-on. You could tell the staff genuinely cared about creating an exceptional experience. The evening began with perfectly crafted and beautifully presented martinis, followed by warm, flavorful focaccia bread that immediately set the stage for what was to come. The calamari appetizer was incredibly fresh, tender, and packed with flavor, and the charcuterie board was both visually stunning and deliciously curated. The entrees were nothing short of amazing. The ribeye was cooked to absolute perfection—melt-in-your-mouth tender and bursting with flavor. The pesto tortellini was rich, creamy, and indulgent, with every bite leaving us wanting more. What started as a simple date night turned into an experience we couldn’t stop talking about—and one we can’t wait to repeat. If you’re looking for incredible food, exceptional service, and a truly memorable night out, look no further. We’ll absolutely be back again very soon. Highly recommend. 🍸🥩✨“

“Top shelf pizza and wings. Owner has always been pleasant.“

“I’ve been going to garden pizza for years and my kids and I have tried everything on the menu and no complaints! I just had a delivery on Friday and when we received the food from driver it was all still hot❤️ to have wings, fries and large steak and cheese subs hot and fresh once delivered is so hard to do but it was done and delicious of course! Thanks to all the employees, my family appreciates you and always have 💯“

“Excellent food! Wheat roll-ups are tasty and very generous portions. Friendly staff and delivery service is quick and reliable. Order once and you'll become a regular customer. - Jim Lucido“

“This is a fun, family friendly eatery that has been serving our Bellingham, Massachusetts community for 25 years. If you're grabbing your take out, or you want to eat in, this is the spot. The portions are large and the food is delicious. The owners and their staff are pleasant and efficient. The owners are engaging and invested in our town. Check it out!“

“We tried Louie's Pizzeria for the first time earlier this week. Excellent service! NY Style hand-tossed brick oven pizza is absolutely delicious! By far the best pizza we've had in a very long time. Chicken tenders are delicious also; cooked just right and not greasy.“

“Solid hole in the wall spot to get a quick bite or a full meal. The pizza is a step above what I typically find in the area. The dough has a solid undercarriage and tastes very good. The grease is kept under control, even on pepperoni pizzas, the middle (where grease can tend to pool) isn’t soggy. The sauce and cheese is good but nothing exceptional. Affordable spot to get a bite for lunch or a meal for a larger party.“

“Olive Garden is a chain and I must say it's a well oil machine if you want a quick snack good service good atmosphere. You know what you get when you get the Olive Garden reasonably priced it is what it is. But I go there every so often the salad is first class and the endless bowl of soap for $9.99How can you beat it?“

“Here’s a polished version in the style of a food critic:

From the moment you step inside, the restaurant makes a strong first impression. Soaring ceilings and a whimsical underwater theme create a distinctive atmosphere, with imaginative light fixtures resembling streams of ocean bubbles and colorful octopus murals adorning the walls. The space feels inviting, thoughtfully designed, and impeccably maintained. Guests can also take advantage of the outdoor dining area, which adds to the restaurant’s appeal.

The kitchen delivers where it matters most. The octopus appetizer, frequently praised by diners, lives up to its reputation with excellent flavor and preparation. The pasta dishes were equally impressive, showcasing well-balanced flavors and expertly executed textures. Each plate demonstrated attention to detail and a solid command of technique.

Service, however, proved to be the restaurant’s weakest point. Despite arriving around 1 p.m. during a relatively quiet period, the pace of the meal was noticeably slow. Given the light crowd, a more efficient turnaround would have been expected. The dining experience was further hindered by inattentive service, as our server checked on the table only once throughout the meal.

Overall, the restaurant offers an enjoyable dining experience highlighted by creative design and well-executed cuisine. While the food is certainly worth trying, the combination of sluggish service and premium pricing makes the value proposition less compelling. At this price point, there are stronger dining options available that deliver a more complete experience.“

“Every Sunday I pick up one of the Sunday Specials at the Franklin Chateau. Always have one or two specials to choose from. I have never been disappointed with everything from the pasta dishes to the fish.
