Restaurants in Medford

“Food is good. Parking is awful. when you get your bill u get a chargé for the kitchen.”

“Great Ramen! I like it spicy, but they have regular and veggie options as well!”

“Wonderful place to eat on our trip to Boston. Went with my dad and then took my wife there 3 days later for a different experience. Owner was kind and friendly. Birthday party was in the middle room and the whole restaurant sang along.”

“The patties are wonderfully spiced & flakey. can't wait to try sweet the pastries!”

“Being 100% Italian also the food was amazing! They started us off with real EVOO to dip Our bread in with salt & pepper you can tell the EVOO was straight from Italy. I started with the arancini special which was sausage and saffron sitting in a white creamy sauce that was absolutely delicious. Then it was a toss up on my pasta dish between lobster raviolis and wild mushroom pappardelle I went with the lobster raviolis in a pink sauce. I never finish my food and I ate ever single ravioli. The portion was good enough for me and the proper way to eat a pasta dish so you don’t have left overs or waste. The pink sauce was creamy and delicious (I even dipped my bread in it at the end). Then I went straight for the dessert and ordered affogato (gelato with espresso) wow amazing not too sweet and not too bitter from the espresso perfect blend. Then my friend and I still were not ready to leave so I ordered a espresso martini and again amazing only advice I would give them is shake the martini more to make it foamy And that was my first experience at Gusto’s I give it a 10/10 Oh and the pizza looked really good that will be my next outing.”

“If you are looking for outstanding authentic Egyptian food please try Kushari. The food made to order is consistently delicious and service is over the top. Plenty of free parking is another bonus!”

“The food is fabulous and the people are super friendly!”

“I live in Bar Harbor, Maine, and one of my guests staying with us offered me a homemade bagel from this establishment. It's one of the best poppy seed bagels I've had in a long time, and the homemade chive cream cheese pairs so perfectly with the smoked salmon. It made my day eating this bagel after work. I love lox. It's one of the sweetest gifts a guest has ever given me. 💕 When I travel the coast looking at lighthouses this winter, this bagel shop will definitely be on my places to stop. Alan is a great supporter and saleman! I'm happy to have met him and have him as one of my guests. Great memory, I'll keep with me. Thanks Alan 😊😊”

“We visited with ~20 friends this past Friday. They handled our group like champs. Food, service and drinks were all fantastic and expedited so quickly. I cannot sing their praises enough. Best nachos I’ve ever had.”

“This is a wonderful place. All the people are so nice and friendly. We are regulars there and most of the employees know our special order. Can’t say enough about the owner. Do yourself a favor and go for food and/or ice cream!”

“DELICIOUS food & wine, good service”

“Chicken and French fries is good
But the only thing I don't like is the is there to cool down the spicy chicken in case you think it's really hot you guys put the spicy chicken right on the bread then the spice comes off the chicken on to the bread
What's the point of the bread if you put the chicken on the bread and spice come off customers supposed to be getting bread with no spices on it it's not going to help them if they feel that the chickens really hot if the bread has the spices on it it's pointless”

“Outstanding menu that changes seasonally and with specials. Service is superb! Especially Christina. We love to visit and eat here with goid friends. Never a bad meal. A plus! 10 stars! All quality food! Worth every penny. Love pans cota too!”

“AMAZING atmosphere!!! AMAZING service!!!! AMAZING food!!! Seriously run to grab a bite here and ask for Sara as your waitress!! The burratta was Michelin star worthy. The best bite of food that I have ever had.”

“Such a sweet new find! Everything was delicious and reminded me of my time in Thailand! We will definitely be back!! Thank you!!”

“First time here and it was such a good experience. All the people were really patient and accomodating, and the meat was so so delicious. Would recommend for anyone who has never tried Korean barbecue before.”

“Im suprised at some of these comments.
They are the nicest people, always pleasant both over the phone and in person. It has been a staple in our community and we order regularly.
Food is always good, never disappoints.
Prices have gone up a bit, but unfortunately that is everywhere.
Highly recommend boneless buffalo tenders... the best! Onion rings are fantastic as are the fried pickles which suprised me. A good fried pickle is hard to come by although i would prefer more of a spicy dipping sauce. Steak and cheese is good and pizza is too.Best in the neighborhood. Salads are always fresh. Nicks is definitely my go to place!”

“This is hands down the best Italian deli I’ve ever been to! The chicken cutlets were to DIE for. The two subs were absolutely amazing. Customer service was top notch. I live 40 minutes away and will be making this a monthly stop for sure. The premade meals section was drool worthy! And the BREAD…. I could have ate three loafs alone. I never make reviews really but this place deserves it!!!!! Don’t walk…. RUN!”

“Great place, awesome food and very friendly workers.”

“Because the majority of their food, dressings, sauces, etc are made in-house and taste incredible. You pay a little more for some of their items but it is definitely worth every penny. And the portion sizes are great too. Their menu takes u from soups, wraps, cold sandwiches, hot sandwiches, salads and hot dishes. The staff are extremely helpful in tweaking an item to fit your needs. James Beard award I’m sure will be coming soon.”

“Ordered lunch for the office. Food was delivered right on the time I requested. Delivery driver was super helpful bringing the trays inside and the food tasted deliciously. Chicken wings were moist and full of flavor and the pizza was done to perfection. Will be ordering there often now!”

“Awesome Food! We love chicken parm and pizza!”

“i’ve eaten here at least 50 times while living in medford.”

“First time visiting and we ordered the Bun Ga Nuong combo. It came with two pieces of shrimp and a very generous portion of grilled meat—so much that I was able to enjoy it over two meals.

This was a takeaway order, and unfortunately I only realized after sitting down to eat that the bag was missing the spring rolls that are supposed to come with the combo. On top of that, one of us has a severe peanut allergy, and the dish had peanuts scattered throughout, making it unsafe to eat.

I called the restaurant right away. The owner immediately apologized, acknowledged they had forgotten the spring rolls, and offered to remake the dish without peanuts. She also told me to keep the original order, which I appreciated.

When I returned, they apologized again and gave me a freshly prepared replacement along with three spring rolls. While it was inconvenient to make the extra trip, I was grateful for how they handled the situation.

In hindsight, I would usually check about nuts, but I didn’t recall seeing it mentioned on the menu. Typically, peanuts are served on the side to prevent them from getting soggy, so this caught me off guard.

Overall, great portion sizes and solid customer service recovery.

Also ordered a banh-mi for one for the road - big and yummy!”

“The steak and cheese sub is AMAZING!! THE PIZZA IS AWESOME❤️❤️Highly recommend!!”

“I don't go to bars much these days but came here for a live music event, the Nirvana tribute band and this place is awesome. The place LOOKS amazing, they had sports playing on a bunch of tvs the food was PHENOMENAL, you order and they text you when it's ready that was pretty wild to me, and the best part of all the amazing staff that was so friendly to me and my family members.

“Alegria Bowls is the best place to eat real Brazilian açaí bowls with lots of different toppings. It’s not just about açaí though—they also have tasty ice cream bowls, milkshakes, smoothies, and protein shakes.”

“I’m coming From Gloucester MA. Bella makes best raviolis everyone is always happy and smiling and eager to serve . Best raviolis I have ever eaten. My family and I love them. Thank you Bella beautiful to observe family togetherness. God’s Blessings, Roseann”

A wonderful combination of craftsmanship and quality—I would order from them again without hesitation.”

“I used to enjoy the juice at Kwench, but they closed down and I didn't realize the Bakery was still open because I thought it was all one business. Discovered their delicious spinach patties- so warm and a lil flaky and a Mauby drink 😋
They're very affordable! Friendly staff. The tall young guy knows me by face. It's located on Salem St in Medford across from The Original Ronny's pizza shop. FYI- They close early on Sundays. Give them a try, you'll love it!!”

“Door Dash delivers to the city (hot, cold, or frozen), which is a dangerous thing to have discovered! The pies are packed with big chunks of very good white meat chicken, so they’re more filling than most. They’re also not too salty. The portions are really solid, too. A pie that says it’s 6 servings fed us exactly 6 servings. They were wonderful when I called about a food allergy, too.”

“Great place for classic subs. I spend my time between living in Maine and Thailand, and boy do I miss a properly constructed chicken parm, Italian, and cheese steak subs. Thanks for keeping the doors open so I can have a proper taste from my childhood.”

“Wow! What a cool organization! I really enjoy the events!”

“Ever since I ordered from here years ago, I have always loved this place. I got D19. Everything was hot and delicious. Chicken wings at other places have no taste, but here wow! Bug too. It's like two chicken wings. Everything is juicy and delicious, not dry. Big pieces of pork and veggies in the pork low menu. Extra soy sauce, duck sauce is free. Other places in the same area charge extra. When you walk in, the guy behind the counter is smiling and very friendly. I don't live close by, but the drive is worth it. I would highly recommend this place to all my friends and family!!”

“Well, I have resided in Medford Sq. area for over two years now. I have given my $$ to Wellington’s as their fare is good, until yesterday. Twice the pizza has so burned it was inedible & Twice scant toppings.”
