“Absolutely delicious in it’s perfect simplicity!“

“Innovative and delicious.“

“The oysters were fresh and i enjoyed the ambience!!!“

“Bartender James was the best! Thanks for the recommendation!!“

“My favorite hand roll place. Overall great food and speedy service. The handrolls are super fresh and come out quickly so everything stays fresh and flavorful. We ordered salmon mango, foe grais, miso butter cod and spicy scallops and all of them are really good. Highly recommend the spicy scallops. Our server Stelle are friendly, efficient, and keep things moving without rushing you. Easy spot for a really satisfying meal.“

“I’d been wanting something spicy and carb-heavy for a long time, and this place absolutely hit the spot. Great for sharing, with spice levels to suit everyone. We tried the snow crab legs, shrimp po’ boy, and lobster rolls — the lobster rolls were the crowd favourite!

It is on the pricier side, but totally worth it for the quality and flavour. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be visiting again!“

“Great location with great staff. Their cocktails are so tasty and each dish was so special. We had their $75 course menu with à la carte shrimp toast and oysters. Would highly highly recommend their duck breast with fig puree and their green apple tart.“

“1st time here. Have driven by hundreds of times......not sure what I was thinking....it took figuring out that you can't get Alaskan King crab legs at Legal Seafoods to force me to try this place out. Took an order to go. A+ yes messy....very messy the middle Hot sauce was excellent and everywhere. Good fun. Shared as an appetizer and we all agree Good stuff. They have "All you can Eat" on Sat and Sun I believe for $30 so a great deal. We will try again. Tiny place maybe 10-12 tables so use OpenTable. I tried Boston they did not have anything for 3-4 days at 7pm. Also had a Brookline reservation. There are ~24 locations in 8-10 states.“

“everything wonderful service food atmosphere“

“Their turkey dinner is good and so is their turkey club sandwich. I had the London Broil tonight, Enjoyed it. But wished they had roasted potatoes but the mashed were tasty.My husband like their pasta alfredo.“

“Fantastic setting, great food and the best server (Ed) I have ever encountered - he was extremely knowledgeable about the menu offerings and ingredients all the while being friendly and personable. Overall rating 10 for restaurant and 10+ for Ed.“

“We were at JP Licks a few weeks ago and saw Bluefin across the street. It was new to us, and I checked out the menu on the website. My husband has A Thing for salmon BLT and frankly I do too, so when we saw that and salmon burgers listed we knew we'd want to check it out.

Yesterday we had our chance to go in for a late lunch/early dinner around 3 pm. We were the only people dining in, but other folks stopped on to get fresh oysters (and mussels?) to go. The atmosphere is pleasant; it's a small space, but they've made it feel airy and open.

The person at the counter was friendly and the service was great. I didn't order a drink with my sandwich and when I went back to him to buy a can of soda or something, he asked if we'd like glasses of ice water. (Not providing it by default makes sense to me, since some people don't want it and it's just wasteful then!)

I got the salmon BLT and my husband decided to try the burger. They came with a simple side salad of greens with a mild dressing, maybe just oil and salt? The sandwiches were delicious. The BLT was probably the better of the two but that's only because smoked salmon is so good. Whatever sort of bread they use on the BLT makes exceptional toast too.

The prices were comparable to similar fare in the area and the portions were good.

I didn't get any photos of the space or our food this time, but we plan to go back and will try to remember. I've seen a number of little places come and go in that location, but I hope Bluefin will be there to stay.“

“Went with friends this last weekend and had a great time. Service was top notch, food was well prepared and tasty, drinks were creative and delicious. We’ll be back!“

“Incredibly great food. Superb drinks. We came here for the first time about six weeks ago. Have been back every week! Very varied menu. Everything we have tried has been top
notch. Appetizers are excellent tuna tartare is the best I’ve ever had served with an avocado wasabi cream! . First rate steaks and crispy fries!!! Nightly specials are
fun. Tonight we had the pork Milanese, it was out of this world.
Even the atmosphere,
we prefer the bar side the lighting is perfect and the staff (Amina) are now friends!
Do yourself a favor and get here!!!“

“I have been going to Grassfields for many years and have been very pleased. The past few times I have been there I ordered the broiled scallops and have been disappointed. The muscle on the scallops are not removed which are very tough to eat. Also I feel they are gritty. I am hoping that someone reads this and corrects the issue because Grassfields is a lovely place.“

“i’ve eaten here at least 50 times while living in medford.“

“Amazing food. Don't miss out on the pasta dishes or the bread. They actually make for great sharing apps. The staff is so nice and welcoming. Drinks are delicious and unique.“

“Left another place to come here because the customer service was bad. What a 180. Citizen staff was friendly, great w/suggestions and helped secure me a seat at their busy bar. Had two great cocktails and a delicious pepper seared filet. Well done Citizen Pub!! I will be back!“

“Pretty good roast beef. Colder beef than the usual NS beef but also cooked a little more which I like. (The typical NS completely raw beef grosses me out). You got to love the owner though. He's been serving beefs for like 40 years, waaay before they became a foodie fad. So if you say 3 way to him he'll look at you like you're a giant dork. I think its hilarious. But anyhow the food is pretty darn good for fast food. Oh and the prices are fair. He didnt jack up his prices 200% when 40-50% inflation hit over the past couple of years. He jacked up the prices to pretty much exactly what the inflation was.“

“I would like to express my gratitude to Blue Salt staff (with special thanks going to Igor) who made our special occasion so memorable! I needed to organize a nice dinner for 15 people for my son's birthday. The whole process was absolutely flawless - from initial contact with Igor who took care of all the planning and setup. When we arrived to the restaurant everything was ready and we were treated with utmost attention. The dinner was served family style and we had a chance to pick our menu selections to be shared. The portions were very generous, beautifully decorated and served, service was impeccable. The food was absolutely amazing! Everyone was beyond satisfied and happy. Thank you, thank you, thank you Igor and Blue Salt team! You made our event very special and unforgettable!“

“Awesome food!! Awesome people! ❤️❤️“

“25 years I have been charged mine here. In all that time, never any less than fabulous!“

“Row 34 Kenmore was excellent from start to finish. Our servers were friendly and helpful with negotiating the menu. The food is fantastic. Folks loved the Fluke and shrimp and grits, and the hot butter lobster roll was the best we've ever had. Also, you MUST try the butterscotch pudding, it's super-smooth and so delicious!“

“Our first time here and can’t recommend this place enough! Everyone is extremely welcoming! I’m assuming it was the owner that brought the kids an appetizer on the house with a big smile and high fives! HOW COOL! The flavor was amazing! Service was great thank you guys!!!!!!“

“A really charming, attentive waiter was a big contribution to our enjoying eating at DRYFT. For the first time in a while, I actually left a bigger than 20% tip for someone. The food was good and reasonably priced and we enjoyed our meal. The calamari appetizer was huge. Only drawback is that the restaurant is extremely loud.“

“Really great experience. The service from Yesenia and another gentlemen were excellent. The food was amazing, we got a ceviche with amazing flavor, very refreshing with a hint of spice to it. The lomo saltado was very flavorful and tender. Looking forward to coming back here.“

“We love this place! Always fresh, absolutely delicious. The people working here are amazing - efficient, knowledgeable, super friendly on the phone and in person. What more could you ask for?“

“Recently hosted a combined 1st birthday party for my son and cousin at the Quincy Elks. I was nervous about the distance between Canton and Quincy but food was delivered on time and hot! 🔥 Everyone loved the buffalo and gold fever chicken fingers and party pizzas! Crisp helped make hosting a party so easy! Thanks to the whole team!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I give 4 out of five only because I'd prefer smaller portions. But don't get me wrong, anyone who knows about Las Vegas Seafood knows this place makes wonderful food.

Parking: It's street parking. Most of the time, you'll be fine*“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Stone Pot Green Pepper Fish was absolutely amazing! 🔥

It arrived at the table still sizzling, and the aroma instantly made everyone hungry. The fish was incredibly tender and fresh, with no fishy taste at all. Every bite was soft, flaky, and perfectly cooked.

The green peppers added a bright, fragrant heat — spicy but not overwhelmingly intense. The broth had a subtle numbing kick from Sichuan peppercorns, but it didn’t overpower the natural flavor of the fish. Everything was well-balanced and layered with flavor.

It pairs perfectly with white rice, and honestly, I couldn’t stop eating it. So happy to find such authentic Sichuan flavor in Boston. Definitely a must-order dish and one I will come back for! 🔥“

“I love StockYard. We haven't been in a long time as we moved faraway. Now, after 10 years we came back and it was like we never stopped coming to eat here. The food was super delicious. The NY Sirloin, and the tenderness of the Fille Minog was extraordinary. Outstanding customer service. The drinks were superb. And the complimentary chocolate cake with ice cream for Father's day was out of this world. Thank you.“

“My adult daughter and I had a FANTASTIC dinner. It was my first time, my daughter had told me how wonderful it was so I already had high expectations, but it completely surpassed them. The mushroom appetizer was spectacular, but honestly, we loved everything and one of the highlights was the delicious swordfish plate. A sauce to die for!  The pork fried rice was also exquisite. It was a particularly lovely treat to meet the owner at the end of our visit. What a charming and warm individual, so clearly committed to creating a fine dining experience with so much loving care. Cannot wait to go back and bring more friends and family! Highly recommend.“

“Fabulous simple basic delectable food! Wonderful homey and comfortable atmosphere. Excellent friendly waitresses. Amazing prices. I love going there.“

“I had a wonderful dinner with my girlfriend at Over the Charles. The food was excellent, and the view was absolutely breathtaking. We watched the moon rise, which made the evening even more special. The staff surprised my girlfriend with a birthday cake, which was such a thoughtful and much-appreciated gesture.“

“Excellent vibe, great food selection and cold Guinness 👍🏼👍🏼“

“The food here is definitely authentic Chinese food (to be specific, Cantonese food). If you‘ve never been to China and would like to have the idea of authentic Chinese food, you should definitely pay a visist.

The service is quite mid, to be honest.“

“We stopped in on the way home from the airport, and it was amazing! From the moment we walked in the door, we felt welcomed. The atmosphere and food were awesome. I highly recommend the Mickey’s Chicken special and the red sangria which was a deep dark red- as sangria should be. Yum! My children loved our Irish waitress who Made them laugh and feel special. This restaurant is over an hour from where we live, but there is no doubt we will travel back often. Wonderful experience!“

“Star Fish ? has been around for a long time but this is the first time I’ve had them. I had a small fish sandwich ? though the condiments are light like only ketchup, Mayo, Tartar sauce or Hot sauce so no lettuce, tomato etc. which I think would have made my sandwich even better. But it still was very good overall??.“
