New American Restaurants near Natick, MA

“Whipped Feta Dip was incredible. Nashville Chicken Sandwich with hot honey was great. My wife had a Fancy salad with grilled chicken that looked too healthy for me, but she raved about it. Service was great, everybody we interacted with was smart, friendly and upbeat. I'm eager to return.“

“We have had breakfast lunch at Eli’s several times, and have always had a great experience. Creative offerings, delicious food, large portions, great service. If we lived closer, we would eat there more often. Highly recommend!“

“If I need to stop on the Mass Pike, I always try to make sure it's at one of the rest stops with a Cheesey Street.
The food is delicious, and it's great to support small business.
Which sandwich to get is always a hard decision, but I usually get either the Caprese or the classic 3 cheese, sometimes with bacon.“

“I just discovered this gem after moving from Philly to Natick 2 years ago. I am obsessed. It was like I was eating my mom’s or grandmom’s best and freshest homemade soups (which nothing has ever been able to compare to until now). Low sodium options are amazing - you can’t find from scratch, quality ingredient made stuff like this easily. I will be a regular customer!“

“Kaua was an excellent host for us at the Pantry restaurant at The Verve Hotel Boston Natick. He was very welcoming when we came in the door. Was available if we needed anything. All around very helpful and made breakfast a very nice relaxed experience.“

“I haven’t visited a Nordstrom Cafe in around 10 years, but was pleasantly surprised to see that everything was as spectacular as ever. The food was easily better than most other dining options in the area, it’s definitely not a spot that should be overlooked! They also had great gluten free options and took my allergy very seriously. 10/10“

“It is good place for nice food“

“If you’re looking for the best place to eat in Needham, Cook is unequivocally it. The quality of the food is outstanding, and the only thing that rivals it is the exceptional service from the entire staff.

A special shoutout to Johnny. His genuine commitment to making every guest’s experience a great one is first class.

Cook has set the standard for what a neighborhood restaurant should be. In my opinion, it’s the best restaurant in Needham. It isn’t even close!“

“Excellent people exc food great prices!“

“Impeccably clean, prompt service, good food, not a huge beer selection but they have the correct ones. Location very easy to get to whether driving, walking, using a bicycle, or are a hobo riding the rails. Fine to use incomplete sentences but end each fragment with a period.“

“Everything was great! Service and food was excellent!“

“We all loved the wonderful atmosphere. The food was delicious! There were 5 in our group. We all ordered something different and everyone was pleased.“

“Blue On Highland is hands down my favorite restaurant in New England. Food is always top notch, drinks are top-tier, and service is impeccable. going back again soon!“

“Hidden gem! Classic bar with insanely good cocktails and food but keeping it real. Beet salad could compete with any high end restaurant. Smash burger and fries - no words. Oh pickle plate is a must - classic sweet to the unexpected root veg and snow pea mix. Great beers new and old. The bartender Mike brings it. He's cool and chill and makes the best subtle recommendations. Great fun to talk with. Great music, great vibe. Already planing a trip back for the reuben. Simple menu done right.“

“We always enjoy our meals at Buttonwood! Delish food, clever cocktails and fab service 🤩 special shoutout to Emily 👏“

“Had a delicious dinner last night at Avenue and wish we had checked it out sooner. Amazing wine and cocktail. Tried the Brie appetizer and Avenue Flatbread, which were both delicious and unique! Spiro, our server, was so attentive and knowledgeable. Service was excellent! Wish we had room for dessert bc that also sounded great but I guess we just have to go back soon“

“Went out for my birthday dinner with friends and had a great time. Our server Walter was amazing and kept us laughing with great service. All 6 of us really enjoyed our food. I definitely recommend the chicken loretta. The back room could use some updating but otherwise I highly recommend visiting this restaurant.“

The rib dinner is my favorite, I’ve had it three weeks in a row. ITS THAT GOOD! Chef Dan has quite the imagination to excite the customers with a changing menu for the seasons.“

The food was delicious and the patio is a great space. For a good drink, I recommend their Mai Tai! I would definitely go back.“

“This is the best place to stay! Very nice, huge pool, huge convention space, lovely staffs! I love!“

“Great family owned & operated restaurant!“

“Great food and great service..👍“

“Delicious food! Everything was perfect! Highest compliments to the Chef!“

“Solid hole in the wall spot to get a quick bite or a full meal. The pizza is a step above what I typically find in the area. The dough has a solid undercarriage and tastes very good. The grease is kept under control, even on pepperoni pizzas, the middle (where grease can tend to pool) isn’t soggy. The sauce and cheese is good but nothing exceptional. Affordable spot to get a bite for lunch or a meal for a larger party.“

“The staff was friendly. The food was delicious. The price was reasonable.“

“Jackie- the Friday Night bartender is beyond phenomenal! Had the best laughs and shakes the best drinks! The food always comes out promptly and exactly how we ordered.“

“good food great service great time“

“Great spot just off 95. Warm and friendly staff with a great comfort menu. Nice place for a date night.“

“The food was great!! The service, I should say our service was very poor. We waited over 47 minutes before we were served our meals. The problem was not the kitchen because a couple who came in after us was served before us. It was the wait staff.“

“I give it 4 stars clean and friendly staff.“

“Tough to choose; everything was great.. Delicious food, amazing cocktails..“

“Kens steak house is a metro west gem! The reasonably priced meals, quality of the food, and very friendly wait staff. This is my wife and my “go to” restaurant when we want a great meal at a reasonable price, When you waking into Kens it feel “comfortable” like it’s your own home . The wait staff are so friendly and patient. They never rush you and are very knowledgeable about the menu. The steaks are the specialty of the house. Each time we’ve had steak it was cooked yo perfection! The drink prices are reasonable and the desserts taste home made! Great place and I hope they are around for many more years!!“

“The service we receive at the hotel restaurant is what makes us want to return to the hotel. Erin made it memorable and part of the reason why I will return. Wish I had got the bartenders name. He made a killer long island. Even if he didn't want to put salt on a margarita. LOL Great experience.“

“Outstanding Wagyu rib eye!“

“I was in Framingham from NJ for a family party and was directed by the Aloft hotel staff to dine at BJs Restaurant and Brew House just a few steps from the hotel. After unpacking, my dtrs and we make our way there. The friendly front staff greeted us and seated us where we can see the game. Now the music was flowing and vibing and I found myself dancing in my seat. In about 1 minute our waitress Gwen came to take our orders. She was professional, friendly and very helpful with suggestions. I chose the Brisket bacon burger and sweet potato fries with a Shirley Temple. Oh my god!!!! What a masterpiece of a meal. I had to speak to a manager to praise them and Jackie was walking by. I was so excited when I stoped her she thought something was wrong. I explained the experience I was having and thanked her and asked her not to take this off the menu ever. Then after a few more wonderful bites, manager Tim comes by to check on us. I invited him to sit so I can also explain to him the joy my mouth and I was experiencing and thanked him also. He told me there was a restaurant near me in Tom’s River, NJ and that elevated my joy. Thank you Gwen, Jackie, Tim and staff for the best restaurant experience I’ve had in a long time away from home. You have a wonderful establishment, staff, food and welcoming dining experience. I will be back every time I make a trip into Framingham AND will go to Toms River, Nj when I get back home to New Jersey. People run to PJs, you will not be disappointed. Look for Gwen, Jackie and Tim and let them know I sent you.“
