We showed up at 5:30pm on a Friday without a reservation (party of 3). They opened at 5pm, so we assumed we were okay to just walk in. They were almost completely booked already! The hostess was able to seat us with a warning that she would need our table back in 1 hour for a previously booked reservation. We agreed and sat. Good took a little while to arrive, but we did order half a chicken and burgers, so it was to be expected. Food was delicious! Appetizers were amazin4g! I could definitely return just to sit at the bar and have wine and appetizers. The music was nice. They had the games on the bar tv, which we could see from our table. The waitress was funy. We had a nice experience.

Amazing food and service! The staff is consistently friendly and welcoming, always serving with a smile. The mussels are unbelievably fresh and a must-order every time. The homemade spaghettini is outstanding—you can truly taste the care and passion Chef Aaron puts into his dishes. You really can't go wrong with any item on the menu. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner. The size of the restaurant is perfect (the tables are well spaced). Service was attentive. Appetizer and entree were exquisite. Great atmosphere. Looking forward to going again.

Their burger is amazing. The winter margarita I had was delicious. The wait staff are all so kind and attentive. We had our 1yo with us and she's not the quietest but they were so sweet with her. Really appreciated it. We will be back for sure!

If you’re looking for creative, delicious food in a friendly, cozy atmosphere, go to Buttonwood. It’s a go-to for my husband and me, and although I have my favorites…the chicken under a brick and the pork milanese, I always love Chef DePaolo’s seasonal change to the risotto. The squash risotto on the menu right now? Yum! The Brassica salad is another favorite. The dressing is amazing, with creamy goat cheese and crispy greens, and a kick of pepper. SO good! And we always love to try the latest recipe for the chicken wings. Generously portioned and incredible flavor! Heading there in a few days with friends. Can’t wait!

My hope when dining out is that the restaurant serves exceptional, delicious, quality food and Buttonwood has served exceptional, delicious, quality food every single time I’ve eaten there. And I have eaten there a LOT. While the chef always makes wonderful seasonal changes to the menu I appreciate that he keeps the homemade spaghettini and the blue cheese and bacon onion jam dates in particular. Buttonwood has a comfortable atmosphere and the service is always excellent. I could go on but I will just add that Buttonwood is impressive in its consistency.

Nice meal-had chicken, salmon, spaghetti and pork-everyone like their meal. The cornbread is delicious dnd a must try!
The receptionist from last night needs to learn how to smile or otherwise act gracious. And, they shouldn’t serve Ritz crackers with their salmon dip (so tacky!). Finally, why is the menu always the same?

Buttonwood me and my husband’s favorite place to go out to eat!! We love stopping in and sitting at the bar for dinner. Everything is always so delicous—the burger is one of the best I’ve had (order the tallow fries, it’s a must).
The staff is also so friendly!! We love chatting with Emily at the bar. She makes a perfect dirty martini!
I always bring friends here when they come to visit, I love showing off this Newton gem!

Buttonwood is a cozy, elegant restaurant with upscale menu, gracious service, and a warm and welcoming vibe. Ive had the pleasure of speaking to the chef/owner Aaron when my wife and I have dined there and it’s clear how passionate he is about his work and how much he cares about his customers. We continue to order our favorites that have been on the menu for quite a while, as well as as always trying the new seasonal offerings. Everything is totally delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant!
