Seven of us went for dinner and everyone loved their meals. Unfortunately, our reservation was for ten, but only seven showed. The restaurant was very understanding even though it was embarrassing on our group's behalf. The only complaint that I have is that when I confirmed the reservation, I asked if we could do separate checks and the woman said absolutely no problem. However, the waitress seemed really put out and had a bit of an attitude when I asked before we placed our orders. I have been a waitress before and I don't understand why some find this to be an obnoxious request. It's really not that hard to do; if requested before orders are placed. Otherwise, everything else was perfect and all of us said that we'd definitely go back. They have a beautiful outdoor patio as well.

Parking: There is a free municipal parking lot behind the restaurant.

Small local restaurant with really good food. Cute lighting and table setup is friendly with your neighbor style. Just be prepared to wait a few minutes before being seated. The food was pretty good.

Food is very good but the dining experience is not. QR code menus, loud classic rock music, and servers that lack any kind of polish. The owners should understand the difference between eating and a pleasurable dining experience. Take out is a better option.

The food was absolutely amazing. At first I was surprised on how busy it was for a Tuesday night, but after the dinner it was clear for me :-)

Good was delicious as always and their cocktails are fantastic. We had a great server and enjoyed our evening there.

Excellent food and prompt service make for a great time.

The food was perfect...right amount of seasoning, right-sized portions, and beautifully presented. We enjoyed the beet salad, tuna tartare, free bird chicken and beef short rib (served over obviously homemade papardelle) while saving room for their brownie, which I would say was just rich enough to remain somewhat "light".

Parking: Large shared lot in the rear of the restaurant

We sat outside on a lovely evening. We especially enjoyed great drinks and the fish tacos. WE have been eating at the Farmhouse for several years & have always had great experience.

Loved the restaurant and the food was very good! Made the reservation a month in advance to catch up with friends we haven't seen in quite some time. Party of 8 at 4:45. To be told we have to order appetizers and main course at the same time when the restaurant was nearly empty and then be told it was because they needed that table for another party after us was not a very welcoming message and I would have to think twice about going back to a place that needs me to leave and tells me.

Great spot for a business dinner for 8 people. Quiet enough to have good conversation. Easy to find. Food was great. Drink selection was top notch. If you're in the Needham area I would highly recommend you try it out.
