New American Restaurants near Millbury, MA

“A bit loud but the staff was nice and the food was good. A bit salty though and the hashbrowns were over cooked. I didn't appreciate the news up on the TV but was glad the volume was low. A cute little place that I'd rather visit in summer when I can be outside :)“

“Inside Showcase Blackstone, in a sea of chain restaurants; Chatters Bar and Grill is an Oasis. Top notch staff, amazing movie themed mix drinks, and delicious food which includes burgers that are actually cooked to order (why is that a rarity now?). This place is a must visit. Get the cap'n crunch fried chicken and love your life.“

“Last night before the Judds concert, we were looking for a place to have dinner. Most places right around the venue were at least an hour wait. We ended up a couple blocks from away at a place called deadhorse hill . It was a small place, not a huge menu but a decent selection of options. The greeter was prompt and polite. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Our waitress was attentive and funny with a quick wit. While we waited for our meal, I observed the bartender expertly measuring, stirring and shaking drinks while engaged in friendly chatting with other staff and people at the bar. Our food was great. We each got burgers and fries and they were delicious. When the bill came, there was a 20% tip already factored in. I've seen this done for large parties before but it was just three of us. Apparently it was stated on the menu, I hadn't seen it. I'm paraphrasing here because I don't recall the exact wording but basically they said the reason they do it is so that all staff is paid equally and they earn enough to make a livable wage. I thought that was pretty cool and then it dawned on me, our waitress was truly one of the best I've ever had. In truth, she didnt have to be. Technically, she was already getting her 20% guaranteed. She didnt have to put in any extra effort. The same goes for the rest of the staff. To me, this made it all the more impressive. The backs of the shirts they all wore said, "Don't be a Pickle kicker". Couldn't figure out what that meant so we asked our waitress. She told us that some time ago back they first opened, a young man worked there and when it got busy and he was building the sandwiches and a pickle fell to the floor, he would just kick it under the fridge. When other staff would clean they would find piles of pickles under there. So its a message to everyone on staff to think of each other, take pride in their work and don't be lazy. I thought that was pretty amazing. All in all, if you ever find yourself in Worcester, MA for a concert or event at the DCU Center, go early and have dinner at Deadhorse Hill. Well worth it and a wonderful experience.“

“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!“

“Great place to eat in Worcester. A lot of menu options with something for just about everyone. Portion sizes are big enough to ensure you get to bring food home with you. Some interesting twists on conventional dishes as well. Servers were super tentative and always accommodating. Great place to go with your friends or family. Parking is hard to come by there, however.Parking: Big parking lot but very tough to find a space. May have to wait 10-15 minutes for one to open up.“

“I hit up this restaurant on a Friday evening. We did not have reservations, but were able to get a seat. The place was full, our table of 2 was squeezed between 2 other tables of 2. I practically made new friends... seriously, we talked to people at both tables on either side, it was hard to avoid when you're practically dining with them. I don't eat cheese and the majority of the items are Italian based, with cheese. Our waitress was fantastic working with my food restrictions and the kitchen was able to make me a Hawaiian type pizza with a BBQ base... no cheese! This modification was certainly not expected but appreciated. If you are in for wine or beer, you're covered. They had plenty of options! There was an added bonus of live music which made the experience even better. My experience was in March while it was cold out. I see that there is outdoor seating, I imagine this place has a wonderful vibe in the summer & I would definitely come back to experience it again!“

“We were quickly greeted by a host as soon as we walked in. It was a Tuesday at noon time so it wasn't very busy, but I have seen this place on days where there's a wait and they are still just as attentive and kind. A server came to our table in less than 5 minutes if us sitting down, brought over our drinks and our food soon after. The food was delicious and very filling. The total came to about $26 which included coffee, a side of home fries, a bacon egg and cheese sandwich, and an omelette that came with toast and home fries. In my opinion, the portions were great and well worth what we paid. The overall vibe of restaurant was lovely. At the end of our brunch, the same person who sat us also offered to pack up our food for us. Only thing to note is I wish there were more menu options but it's still great. Would definitely recommend.“

“Armsby Abbey is a culinary gem nestled in the heart of Worcester , renowned for its commitment to craft beer and farm-to-table dining. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a warm and inviting ambiance, with rustic décor and a cozy atmosphere.“

“Good find! Decent food and reasonable prices. Went with a friend. Both got burgers, cooked to order and tasty. Server was very friendly, just seemed to take a long time to get our food. Note that it was busy while we were there. Disappointed the onion rings were of the frozen variety and an upcharge of $1.50, but I didn't ask when ordered. Overall a good place to go, for good food. (FT burger in picture - yummy)“

“Stopped for lunch before going to an event at DCU Center. Intended to go to Boulevard Diner across the street but there was no room. Parkway was a great alternative. We had a group of 6 including 2 children and we were seated and served promptly. Great food and great service and much more room than the diner across the street.Kid-friendliness: Great place to bring kids. Very kid-friendly.“

“Very good meal here- had the crispy chicken sandwich and the super thin house chips. Great atmosphere that was quiet enough for a conversation- rare these days. Pick window for to go is well. Just off the Mass Pike and worth the 2 minute detour.“

“We were told that Vintage Pizza had a great BLT pizza. So we stop and tried it on our way home from New Hampshire a couple of years ago. It was fantastic !!!!! Now every time we go to New. Hampshire to visit family we stop at Vintage Pizza on our way home to Wallingford, Connecticut.“

“Went for late lunch, early dinner with a friend. Totally new place & area. Pretty big & spacious. The truffle fries were best. Ahi tuna was okay. Our server was very friendly.Update: Went again for dinner with my friends fam. I ordered the general tso with shrimp. It was delish. Everyone liked their food they ordered but the wait was too long. Went again for the third time for our post marathon meal. Vegetable bowl with shrimp was amazing. Love every bit of it.“

“My favorite restaurant!! The tenderloin is delicious and I always get an order of deviled eggs there and one to go. Always friendly and attentive wait staff. This place is special, I haven't gotten a single thing off the menu I didn't like. My fiance and I always go for our anniversary and my birthday and we recommend it to everyone we know.“

“Came for murder mystery show which was wonderful. Allergies were attempted to be accommadated. Night of the event. There were several food hiccups,but did try to fix. Unfortunsately the substituted food was unsatisfactory. Scheduled food for my guest he said was veru good. Still waiting on company to return call to address the issues of the night.Dietary restrictions: The event coordinator did her best to accommadate food allegies. Dispite current hiccup situation i would recommend going if no allegies exist.“

“Everytime I go to 88’s the menu comes through. Mai tai skewers are super tender. Seafood dishes of salmon and haddock are awesome. Tenderloin tips are super tender. Only reason I haven’t rattled off more food items is because I have to make return trips to get through the rest of the menu. Good portions, good vibes, nice and cosmopolitan atmosphere.“

“Great neighborhood, no frills Irish bar. They do not serve food, but the pizza place next door is connected buy a service window and the bar has menus.Most importantly, Galway has the most personable, fun, friendly and beautiful bartender I have ever seen! (Priorities! ?)“

“We had my sister's 50th this past Sunday as a private function. EVERYTHING was perfect. The food was positively delicious, the service was beyond exceptional and the atmosphere was classy yet extremely comfortable. I highly recommend The Cellar for any occasion.“

“The food was good for all of us, however the portions were small. Fish and chips..$22.00. I normally pay $12.00 for twice as much. I like the restaurant and would go again but definitely I will try and find something a bit more substantial. I did not like that you can not make reservations unless you are six or more. We had to wait out in they foyer and it was cold.Vegetarian options: My oldest is a vegetarian and she found several options“

Good food, great steaks Reasonable prices in the current recession.Dietary restrictions: Will meet your dirty restrictions for mean.Parking: A large lot, the building used to have movie.Kid-friendliness: The staff was friendly and accommodating.Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap accessibility is no problem.“

“As a former restaurant employee, I was very impressed with Shayne’s service and attention to detail. From the first sip to the final bill, he was there constantly checking in while tending to other patrons and his bar duties. Thanks for making our night that much more fun Shayne!I got Sweet & Spicy Thai Chicken Salad. Amazing. Spicy but not where it was unpleasant. One of the best salads I’ve had in a while. And the portion was huge.It was a little loud but it was packed when we arrive and then cleared out.“

“The service was great and the manager came to our table to say hello and to welcome us. We had burgers with chicken tenders, we were told they only cook the burgers one way, ours were dry and a little overcooked. Our bill was $75. with the tip.“
