“I have to say that the Towne Cafe has the best food and best staff. They are friendly and work very hard. It is a pleasure to visit with them everyday. There is no place better.”
“Pizza is always good but today on 1/9 at 6:33pm it was by far best pizza I’ve had in years!Go to deleos- always quick pick up- friendly service- good food. When my family visits the BLT is always requested because it’s loaded.”
“Excellent food and drink, with friendly service. The fried rice was wonderful, not greasy at all, the sushi we ordered was top notch too. An unexpected gem in Merrimac.”

“We held a Baby Shower at the Grove. It was just absolutely perfect. The food was amazing. The ambiance was just beautiful. Dayna and the team were accommodating and helpful.It rally was just lovely! Thank you”
“Be sure to visit Drop Cafe! Excellent coffee and many choices to enjoy! Very comfortable place to relax enjoy some coffee and food. The owners and staff are friendly and some nice breakfast food too.”
“Fantastic new Lao/Thai restaurant with quirky atmosphere and, sometimes, live music. They do need to work on making the service more consistent, *but* they're also the friendliest restaurateurs you will ever meet, with the proprietor/chef sometimes coming out to narrate your dishes. Delicious food.”
“Delicious! Contrary to the North Shore tradition to get James River BBQ sauce on roast beef, I like mine with cheese and mayo only. This means the beef itself has to be well seasoned without relying on the sauce and Bella's does not disappoint!My husband and I drove from another part of the state to eat here because it's so highly rated on the North Shore Beefs page. We now detour on the way to visit a relative so we can get roast beef!Pro tip: don't attempt to eat The Professor in one sitting, that thing is a monster”
“We LOVE Loretta Restaurant. It is our favorite go to for a girl's luncheon, a romantic dinner, or a dinner out with friends. The food is superb, we have never had anything but delicious mouth watering lunches and dinners. The meals are made to order and you can ask for special care for allergies. We have never been rushed so the table can turn over! The wait staff is personable and a pleasure. I highly recommend a visit and a meal, if you do you will come back! And the owner is always there to make sure things run smoothly and all leave happy!”
“Great owners, friendly staff, huge portions, Michelle makes a mean cocktail, and the food is always amazing and consistent. We eat here a lot and have never had a meal that was less than outstanding!”
“Had a great experience, sitting at the bar with the excellent service and delicious food. Salads were fresh and crispy and inventive. Seafood was cooked perfectly.”
“I live 40 mins away and came to try the clam strips and scallops some of the best I've had in the north-shore. They give a good amount to. Pricey but worth it.”
“This pizza student's pizza is so fun once you try it, you want to eat it again and again. Their restaurant is very clean. They serve good things at very low prices.”
“Run, do not walk to this bakery if you are looking for the most delicious croissants in all the lands! Seriously their almond croissant is just simply amazing. I have to fess up, i ate that entire box in a day and went back the next day for more. I just had to get another almond croissant for me and bring one to my Mom who was also blown away but how good this dreamy croissant is.”
“I was on a flight once, and after the plane landed the flight attendants walked around with iPads asking passengers if they'd like to tip the flight crew. I'm only kidding, but in today's day and age where tipping culture has run amok, I wouldn't be surprised if this became the norm. Spirit, don't get any ideas, now! I have no problem with tipping, and do so generously. Yet, in a world where the trees will soon be subtly nudging towards a tablet with every breath I take, it was refreshing to hear about a no-tipping restaurant that pays its staff fair wages. Always nice to support a family business, too. Thus, when I was more-or-less in the area and due for a family date night, I decided to finally give The Cormorant a try. I had the opportunity to try the Naan-chos and the Duck vs. Cow burger. With the Naan-chos, I appreciate the creativity, but the execution did not work for me. I feel that the parts did not work together to form a cohesive dish. This comes down to two factors: First, the large size of the ingredients, specifically the naan chips and veggies. There is only so much I can fit in my mouth without looking like a barbarian! Second, the lack of cheese as a binding agent meant there was little to help stick components together. Where it comes to the parts on their own, the naan chips were a good base for the dish, and were cooked nicely to give just the right amount of crispness while not making them as hard as a tortilla chip. The hummus, beef, and veggies were good, but nothing to write home about. Though, I'd like to mention: the "spiced" beef felt as if the only spice was salt, and maybe pepper. The harissa, meanwhile was incredible! It had great flavor, and a pleasant level of heat. Meanwhile, the garlic maple tahini sauce did not work in this dish. It was heavy, in-your-face sweetness that did not meld with any other ingredient. The Duck vs. Cow burger was a different story. I loved the combination of the duck confit and burger patty. The duck especially was cooked to perfection and brought tremendous flavor. The aioli and the sweetness offered lovely savory and gently sweet notes that complimented the protein nicely. The only thing missing for my taste is some kind of acid, even if it is only a pickle on the side. The onion rings though didn't quite do it for me - they felt a little heavy on the breading, and were the kind that the little onion strings escapes leaving a substantial bread shell behind. Inside, the space is small yet warm and inviting, and has counter seating and a couple tables. The service is polite and appropriately fast. The prices were reasonable, especially considering there wasn't the de facto service charge which is an expected tip. Thus, while The Cormorant was a positive experience I don't see myself schlepping from Quincy.”
“Stopped in for a appetizer and beer,first visit. Great location in old England home, floors can be tricky. Food was great ,menu had plenty of choices .Will be going back for dinner .Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp to 1st floor .”
“The food is excellent every time and gets out super fast even when it’s busy. The staff and owner are very friendly, and the seating is comfortable whether you’re with a group or on your own. Great food for the price.”
“Their brie appetizer is amazing, and it's consistently on the menu, which is important: I hate making plans to go to a restaurant because I love something they have only to find they're not offering it that day.”
“Here's a little Valley gem! Great product! Gelato with some pastries on the side. Everything is so yummy: You can't go wrong no matter what you get. (Pro tip: Try that tiramisu!! Whoa!)If you've never had gelato, think ice cream but richer, thicker, and more intensly flavored. At least to my taste.I took a star off because it's kind of a small place, seems dimly lit, and it just takes a while to scoop ice cream, you know? Taking the star off almost doesn't seem fair. Just be patient (I know, right?) - you will be rewarded.Parking: Plenty of parking with Piro's Bakery right next door.Kid-friendliness: Make sure you bring the kids - they love ice cream and this is an easy win for you. Bonus: This won't break the bank.”
“We had Kali in as our server and she was phenomenal! The food and vibes were awesome. We will be back! Props to bartenders for making money cocktailsVegetarian options: Could have a bit more options but over all good”
“We visited Thai Zap in Salisbury this afternoon. What a treat! The food was AMAZING from the Crab Rangoon (the best we've never had), Steamed Dumplings, and Tom Yum soup, to the Jumbo Shrimp Pad Thai, Red Curry Chicken, Steamed Noodles, and Garlic Salmon. Even the Thai Tea was exceptional.”
“Dog Friendly inside, very unique and interesting beers. The staff is super friendly and helpful letting you try any of their beers. The atmosphere is casual and open for groups.”
“This place is awesome! The seating seems cramped and bustling but it actually makes the entire dining experience comfortable and welcoming. The food was great from the fries to the ramen. Drinks were also amazing. Great place in downtown Newburyport I would highly recommend.”
“North Andovers got a bagel shop with multiple cream cheeses. Had the lox sandwich on a toasted everything with red onions, capers and fresh lox today and a cinnamin sugar bagel to go.”
“Five stars. I really enjoyed this place. First of all clean. I like the local pictures. The halloween decorations nicely done.I ordered French toast stuffed with raspberry jam and cream cheese. It's four slices. With butter, powder sugar, and cinnamon. Had to have it with New Hampshire syrup and oj. You'll hope it tastes as good as it sounds well it does. Also had blueberry muffin. It is moist fresh and flavorful. It has blueberrys threw out not just in cap. She ask if I wanted it warmed up with butter. After the French toast I decided to take it to go. They gave me butter and silverware with it. Couldn't ask for better service. I recommendation this place hole heartedly. You will enjoy you meal.”
“Hands down the best pizza we’ve had since we left the NYC metro area more than a decade ago. Authentic New York style thin crust pizza. The pepperoni pizza is our favorite, and the veggie pizza is great, too. AND, he has great Indian food, too. Buy a pie and he’ll give you a sample of the Indian food. He’s a really nice man. Don’t let the exterior put you off. This is a real hidden gem.”
“Such amazing ice cream and an amazing staff!! Mad Maggie's is always the place I love to go for ice cream!! The staff is always so kind and friendly and makes going there amazing every time!! With a severe tree nut allergy, the shop can easily accommodate with safety measures that makes me feel safe in going there every single time!!”
“New Pale Ale might be the best I’ve ever had. Always come here for my preference for lagers and pilsners, but Silvaticus isn’t content to do the same thing forever. Great atmosphere (music is a little loud) and great beer. The addition of a real chef offering food is awesome!”
“Been going here for 30 years and it's good the owners are really nice, they have let my daughter have a tab. So she can feed the kids... the food is usually good. No complaints here...Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome here. Teenagers go for Pizza as long as they're respectful”
