Comfort Food Restaurants near Needham, MA

“Another awesome night at my favorite restaurant- chicken piccata was delicious with mash potatoes & asparagus - my spicy margarita was alive with flavor … the live music was starting & people were pouring in the doors & the night was happening… what an amazing experience & the best place to be!!!“

“I ordered online at the new Wellesley location, not knowing that the restaurant was temporarily closed for the day. However, the staff opened up just to make my sandwich and were very friendly. The grilled cheese was delicious, big, and fairly priced. Will be coming back to try the Mac and cheese!“

“We were only looking for a grownup place to meet friends after the Boston Calling concert for some drinks and to catch-up. There's very little available in this neighborhood, so Sloane's was our only choice, and we never expected it would be so flawless, inviting, creative, and showcase such hospitality. I could live just on their appetizers, meant to be shared for the table. They're fun and playful and flawlessly executed. An instant win were the cheese and onion popovers, and the tomato tart but even the pigs-in-a-blanket were clever and original. Loved the cocktail menu where even traditionally sweet options were crafted with restraint to highlight flavor rather than dulling the mouth with sugar syrup. We finished with a couple desserts and let me just say the banana cream pie should be mandatory at every table! Service was so smooth and unobtrusive, they never blinked even though we monopolized our table for rather a long time with our friends. Highly recommend.“

“First time buyer and I have to say, hands down, the BEST chicken pot pie I have ever eaten. Don’t change one thing about it!“

“Very unique restaurant that does some super cool things! Pros: - Any of their baked goods are TO DIE FOR. - Lovely environment - Nails the diner theme - An experience!! Cons: - I’ve been here three times now and honestly I just don’t think their actual entrees are super memorable. I tried their clam chowder, their jackfruit bowl, and the chicken waffles. And only the chicken waffles stood out as being good (still not fantastic) the others were meh 🤷 - wish it was all vegan. To break it down: 4/5 experience 5/5 sweets and baked goods 3/5 food So highly recommend visiting and trying it out! Get your nostalgic diner food and your favorite baked goods and have a blast.“

“Amazing food and good service. I will go back.“

“The best chicken around New England“

“I will have to come back for food, but there is a fun selection of drinks, and this was tasty! I am excited to try Haitian food! It was so hot I stopped off for a cold drink, and there’s even a bakery next door with Haitian treats!

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs.“

“Stopped for lunch at the Natick Rest stop on the Mass Pike. It has a Cheesy Street Grill. The large number of Grilled Cheese sandwich offerings looked good. Tried a sample (Cheese & bacon) which was very tasty and opted for a grilled sandwich with three cheeses combined with caramelized onions. It was served quickly, hot and perfectly cooked. It was large enough to satisfy a big appetite and I would gladly have split it with a companion and been happy. If you haven't tried Cheesy Street, I suggest you should.“

“The chili is amazing. I can’t ever make it home without digging in on the way. Getting soup and chicken from the same place is genius, a full meal that tastes like it came from your own kitchen.“

“This was my first visit, and I was very pleased. I did not love my harvest bowl (just wished it was a little more flavorful), but the breakfast sandwiches and pastries were amazing! This is a very cute spot to grab takeout or just enjoy a cafe setting.“

“The food at Café Mami was good, but the service was truly exceptional. The lady working there was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure our dining experience was as pleasant as possible. One downside is that the restaurant is quite small, with only two or three tables, so on a busy day, you might expect a long wait. However, the overall experience was very enjoyable, it’s definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.“

“The department is young and a great group that takes its job serious. We are lucky to have them“

“Local live music on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Great staff, fantastic food, creative drinks, nice beer selection.“

“Good food and drinks; excellent service“

“The owner Bryan is simply amazing! Remarkable finger lickin good chicken with signature recipe. The mashed potatoes is absolute comfort food and the gravy is always equally satisfying

He is very passionate about serving the community with great commitment

The full rotisserie chicken is the real deal by far so juicy, so tender, you’re truly missing out. He has a very unique high quality chicken and his service really stands out. Very much worthy of trying.

My mom loves the fish cakes and the coleslaw is made from scratch, wicked fresh! Don’t miss out :)“
