New American Restaurants near Leicester, MA

“This was a 10/10 hit all around! We were just leaving Boston with 5 hour drive ahead of us - Eller's was off our route a bit, but the only place with great reviews and a menu that suited all of us. We could not have been more satisfied with this experience! Portions were huge, food was fresh and well prepared, service was with a smile and super speedy. My favorite part was that you could tell the owner/s take a lot of pride in the quality of the food and the service! On a busy Saturday night, the owner was talking to customers and running food to tables right alongside his crew, and his wife in the kitchen - no surprise why everything was excellent with that level of involvement from the owners! The next time we are in the area we will make a point to return.“

“The personal service is as amazing as the food!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Attended bridal shower and it was perfect from beginning to end. Everyone complemented the food, service was excellent and all flowed so smoothly. Will be back to try out the restaurant!“

“I found myself in Worcester yesterday and searched for vegan food online and found Belmont Vegetarian among others listed. After seeing several pictures of dishes I decided to go! And I’m glad I did! Belmont Vegetarian (where everything is vegan) was delicious and in heaping portions. There’s a smaller (but still big) container for only $17 and change and a giant container (which I obviously got) for $19 and change. I got BBQ, mac n cheese, rice , beans, and chickpeas, and some sweet n sour steak. They also make their own delicious juice with sea moss. I got watermelon. The place is set up for takeout mostly with only 2 dining tables.Definitely worth the drive from NH!“

“OMG! We just left a love fest of service and food! We loved the staff and chef, each so warm and accommodating! And it’s hard to know where to start with the food! The crème brûlée french toast was incredible, the bacon, smoky, and my chai was silky and had a perfect combo of spices. I had a spinach pie with a flaky pastry top, and others ordered a Brazilian couscous dish, a humongous omelete and a yummy veggie combo. Oh, and the smoothies? One Soursop and a mixed berry. On and on, but all to say we were very happy❣️“

“Food was fresh and delicious, but I really wanna comment on our server, Shauna. She was always smiling and happy to serve and checked on us accordingly. Will be back ?“

“Went for a solo dinner while in town for work. Sat at the bar - bartenders were great. Had a delicious Boulevardier off the seasonal cocktails menu and the muhamarra sandwich. I have never heard of it but it was awesome! I will definitely be back to order more off the menu!“

“Food is always great and staff is very friendly and polite.“

“outstanding! great food, service, and environment for a night off with friends.“

“The food is great. The service is great, and their patio is pet friendly. What more can I ask for?“

“I go to the Galaway bay every once in awhile with some friends of mine and i highly recommended them the bartenders are great and the drinks are just the way I like them ice cold“

“Visited Oli’s Italian Eatery today Sunday October 20th, 2024 with sister-in-laws and a cousin. Arrived for noon, seated in back, the restaurant was clean and spotless. We all ordered something different, Haddock Fish Tacos (there were four) Baked Haddock with Rice Pilaf, Shrimp Scampi with Linguine and Seafood Saute & Angel Hair. All meals were served hot and in large portions. We took home and our waitress was very pleasant. Support your local small restaurants and I give this dining experience five stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️.“

“308 Lakeside has a lot going for it, especially the service — the staff were attentive, friendly, and made the visit genuinely enjoyable. The food was decent but felt a little average for the setting; not bad by any means, just room to grow. The atmosphere was similarly middle-of-the-road. Overall a good experience carried largely by the great service.“

“Celebrating my wife's birthday . Requested a bottle of chilled Chardonnay be at the table when we arrive. It was not . In fact they never even recognized my wife's birthday. My wife ordered Shrimp Scampi and they initially brought her the wrong meal. The correct meal was brought out very quickly. Our waiter was very good. The experience just fell short of my expectations. Not sure we'll revisit.“

“Great food, friendly staff“

“Stopped in tonight on our way through town and absolutely loved it! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great and the service was amazing! Very quick to wait on us and make sure that we were taken care of. Will definitely stop back in again when we are down this way again!“

“It's National Oyster Day & I'm hooked on The Mercantile's offer of $1 oysters with strawberry mignonette from 4-6, Monday to Thursday, is unbeatable. I also devoured their goat cheese bites, crispy broccoli, & boom boom shrimp, all incredible appetizers. My friends' mac & cheese with buffalo shrimp & lobster fettuccine were insane. To top it off Claire, our waitress, was absolute perfection. Back to the mac & cheese - top tier!“
