Nappi's Restaurant 370 Salem St, Medford Italian • $$
370 Salem St, Medford

“I just love the whole idea of no menu and telling them what I would like to eat that day. They really listen to you and the portions will make sure you walk of there full. Yes it is BYOB and it’s the best since I have my picks when it comes to wine and knowing the wine I like will pair great with the food I want is awesome. It is cash only but there are a target nearby with a ATM. It’s a great date night destinations if you love Italian food!I didn’t give a full 5 stars for atmosphere because it can get really loud there.Vegetarian options: They don’t have a menu so you just ask what you want to eat and if it’s a veggie option, then you’ll get a veggie option.Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp.”

Matsuba Izakaya 38 Riverside Ave, Medford Sushi Bar • $$
38 Riverside Ave, Medford

“The sushi was fantastic. I based going there solely on the google review and it did not disappoint. Specifically, the salmon was amazing. Probably the best sushi grade salmon we have ever had. I wouldn't say the atmosphere is anything out of the ordinary, the service was good even though only one waitress for the number of tables. She was quite attentive and once ordered the food came out fast and presentation was great. If you want good sushi, I highly recommend Matsuba. Probably an excellent take out option and pricing was on par or slightly better than average in my opinion.Parking: There is a lot within a couple minute walk.”

Neighborhood Kitchen 84 Spring St, Medford Chicken Wings • $$

“The food was so good! I wish I took a picture before I ate it all. I tried the jerk pork with rice with djon djon. When I called to ask about food/recommendations, Juan was amazing! He asked if I like spicy and told me about the jerk pork. It was perfect. And he was helpful and nice. I won't order from some places, sad to say, because some are so rude and not helpful when you call an order in. And the staff here was friendly and said hello when I got there to get my food. I'll definitely go there again when I'm in that area.”

Snappy Pattys 454 High St, Medford American • $$

“Craving fried chicken? I highly recommend theirs! Whether it’s the bucket of chicken (great for sharing) or the spicy chicken sandwich (the serrano aioli is mouthwatering), you cannot go wrong. Their chicken is tender and the breading is incredibly crispy. Think the kind of crispy that holds up and doesn’t get soggy even if it gets cold - chef’s kiss ?Try out their spicy fries while you’re at it and pair it with a local beer.”

Casa Benfica Cambridge 29 Linden St, Medford Portuguese • $$
29 Linden St, Medford

“To enjoy this venue, one must contextualize the place: a private club for Portuguese soccer team Benfica where local fans, mostly from the local Portuguese community gather to watch games and enjoy food together - note that membership isn't required for service.The venue is very informal for it doesn't work like your typical restaurant albeit, it's the conceptionally the same.The menu is on a chalkboard fixed to wall next to the bar. It is not extensive and rotates daily. So you won't be able to browse it online before heading there expect if you are on their Facebook page (the chef posts daily pics of the menu there which, is an excellent idea).Now for the nitty-gritty: you can sample some top-notch, authentic Portuguese fare. From bacalhau and octopus dishes all the way to some of best steaks in area. Brazilian dishes are also featured.Cold beer (bottled only) and Portuguese wines are widely available.If you are a sports fan, specially those who love soccer (European - Portuguese in particular and Brazilian), this place, along with the food and cold beer could be your heaven.”
