“my 2 friends and I went to Strawberry Fair restaurant yesterday. one friend we hadn't seen in years. we've known each other since we were 12. our hostess and waitress were excellent. we stayed over 2 hours reminiscing. Then when we tried to take a selfie before we left and our waitress came outside and offered to take the picture. it came out great!! I highly recommend this restaurant.The food was delicious!!! Great service and very friendly staff. Thank you! The address is 14 Pond St, Norwell, MA 02061“

“I like this place. Food and service are great. Their Hall of Fame reuben is awesome. But the high top tables in the bar are perpetually sticky, for years now. Your paper drink napkins literally stick to the table. The waiter told us a long time ago it was a problem with the stain on the tables. But come on... I could fix that in an afternoon. It's a gross feeling. What are you waiting for??? Otherwise, this place is great.“

“Friendly service, great food, live music, perfect place to go out for a good time!“

“Wait staff was attentive but timely. I had the cauliflower and I was fabulous!“

“There are endless lists that recommend “the best lobster roll” you need to try. There is no better lobster roll than the one at 5 South Main - nice pillowy roll with a generous serving of lobster meat coated (but not soaked) in mayo. Also recommend the chicken Caesar wrap. The staff is always really pleasant. Have primarily gone for the takeout, but also have enjoyed dining in. Very cozy in here (4 to 6 tables). Perfect place to come when looking for a very small and quiet atmosphere. Menu is just the right size - everything is freshly prepared. Very generous pours of wine for anyone dining in for dinner.“

“delicious!! very nice environment & food was excellent ! i had the tuna poke bowl & pan seared scallops“

“We held the Pembroke Council on Aging's Volunteer Luncheon there on April 14th. From the start of planning to the end of the event Debbie and her staff were on point. Debbie was very easy to work with and I would go back there in a heartbeat.“

“My wife and I visited Square Cafe in Hingham last night and we had an awesome dinner! I can't say enough good things about this place. Probably one of THE BEST meals I've had in a long time when dining out. The food...all of it....our appetizers, entrees and dessert was outstanding! Our waiter Jamis was the best! If you haven't tried Square Cafe, do yourself a favor and give it a try. We will definitely be a repeat customer!“

“Great service! Great food!“

“As a member of the Boston Vegetarian Society and a vegan for over three decades, I was delighted to discover delicious vegan options on the menu at the Sun Tavern. The culinary standout, smoked tofu, surpassed expectations with its extraordinary flavors and textures, while my wife Meg's pasta dish presented a delicate balance of hearty and fresh locally grown ingredients. Celebrating our 44th anniversary in such a charming ambiance was a true treat. The Sun Tavern’s commitment to delivering satisfying and robust vegan cuisine positions it among the finest dining experiences in the South Shore area, ensuring it takes a well-deserved place on the vegan-friendly epicurean map.

“Great food and atmosphere!“

“We visited for the first time last night and I think it’s our new favorite! My kids LOVED the food-especially my 2yr old, he got the kids fish and chips! I got the half roasted chicken-oh Emmy goodness it was so good! Dessert was great too-baked apple pie! Yum! Staff was kind and attentive. We will definitely be back!“

“We had lunch outside. The crab cakes were excellent and the remoulade sauce was amazing. The burrata dish was also excellent and the pesto was superb. Next time I’m getting the fish and chips with remoulade that the waitress said is a favorite.“

“Somewhere Else Tavern along Rte. 127 in Bryantville/Pembroke, Mass. I must say I've been at the building, since 2009 (15 years) when it was "Old School". It was a building then, a bar/restaurant of sorts, but now it is someplace special. Since Lori and Jayson, who also own the "Fork in the Road" delicatessen in Bryantville and the Olde Hitching Post restaurant in Hanson, took over the restaurant and renamed it, it is now a place for excellent food, beverages, and a wonderful, wonderful group of people, their patrons. What makes Somewhere Else truly special is that on almost every night, Jayson, Lori, or Lori's sister, Lee Ann, will be there taking care of their customers..... their friends. This past Sunday, was Lori's birthday and EVERYONE was included to celebrate her birthday, Chinese food (seemingly Lori's favorite), cake and ice cream shared with all. But best of all, was not the food, but the celebration of friendship.... Thank you Lori, Jayson and Lee Ann. For those of you who have not stopped by, do so. You'll enjoy your time at the Somewhere Else Tavern.“

“I was in yesterday, missed you Sue! I was too late for the Turkey Quinoa meatloaf, got the shepherds pie and it was delicious. Also picked up the Roasted Vegetable Soup which is always delicious and trying the Turkey Chili for the first time, I’m sure it will be great as every meal I’ve had from Depot Street Market has been!“

“Where do I start!? I am from upstate New York and visiting my dad and wife and made it a point to go to E/2 and enjoy the amazing food and atmosphere. Charlie, the owner made one mean expresso martini. Our waiter, Eric was exceptional and was attentive. The Chef, George did not disappoint! Best scallops I've ever had! Pan seared monk fish with risotto was absolutely divine. My boyfriend the carnivore, enjoyed the succulent and savory tasting ribs that fell right off the bone. Thank you yet again for the amazing meal and great service. We shall be back soon!“

“I wish I lived closer. If I was even 40 minutes from Bia I would be here weekly if not daily. The food is impeccable, the service is the same and the atmosphere is everything you would want in a dining or bar experience. It's a must visit.“

“Very good meal and drinks“

“Very good. I chose the smoked pork belly burger with upgrade to side salad. The burger was delish with just enough heat to give it a kick. Salad was fresh and ample portion. My dining companion chose the short rib toastie with side of fries. He deemed it very good. Nice beverage selection. Beverages properly chilled. Very good service. I will be back. Highly recommend.“

“We had Easter dinner there and we were so impressed. The food was phenomenal and the service was fantastic. Thank you for making our day with family special. We will definitely be back and recommend to our friends.“

“I love eating breakfast at Easter's Country Kitchen. I used to go there around the holidays when my grandparents visited with my grandfather, brother and father, and other times with other relatives. Aside from the food prices increasing, the food has been excellent every time! Great job! Keep up the good work!“

“We went in at 5:45 on Saturday and got seated right away. Our server, Marina, was very friendly with a great sense of humor. She brought our drinks quickly and took our orders and brought our food out hot. We got the Smash burger and Cowboy burger and they were cooked just the way we asked. Looking forward to going back for the fancier entrees or one of the Saturday specials. Great job by all.“

“Great service! Good atmosphere. Loved the food! ❤️“

“Took a trip to the beach today and walked across the street for lunch. What a happy thing we did! I believe I was served the best sandwich I have ever had in my 69 years on the planet. Avocado on toast with bacon and fried egg served on multi-grain toast on a bed of greens. DELISH!“

“As the owner of The Blue Oar, I can see at least 5 or 7 of these reviews are either BOTS or another restaurant. They reference fences, cash only, hot dogs and other words or phrases that don’t relate to our restaurant at all.“

“Delicious menu items.. the pear salad is delicious and a fabulous starter to share. I had the swordfish over the lobster succotash and it was fantastic.. the succotash alone would be a delight! Highly recommend and we can’t wait to go back. We ended with the flourless chocolate cake and it was perfect“

“The best breakfast. Lovely staff , the owners are wonderful people. I really recommend“

“My wife & I had dinner tonight, she had baked haddock, and I had the baked scallops. Both were exceptional! Best scallop dinner ever! I have a culinary background and I am not sure what they add to make their scallops & breadcrumbs so succulent, but I recommend this dish! Great service and prices!“

“Me and my beautiful wife got married there this past weekend and I can’t say enough great things about the Red Lion. The service was top notch and the food was amazing!“

“Good as always delicious and it’s so hard to decide what to eat everything is so good and service excellent as always ..“

“Beth Kitchen and Bar is a fantastic spot for a delicious meal at any time of the day—they even offer breakfast! We visited for lunch and were impressed with both the food and the service. The grilled octopus was perfectly tender and flavorful, the fish and chips were crispy and fresh, and the fried oysters were a delightful treat. The fried calamari was another standout—crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

The atmosphere is cozy yet modern, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff was attentive and friendly, making our dining experience even better. If you’re looking for a spot with great seafood options and a welcoming vibe, Beth Kitchen and Bar is definitely worth a visit!“

“Great eats and drinks. Small. Get there early.“

“I am not confident that I can put into words the way that Manny's made me feel, but I will sure do my best. Not knowing what I wanted for lunch and having some time to spare, i decided to give it a try. Dine in is most definetly the move. My hunger motivating me to get more than only a single slice, I decided to try the buffalo chicken mozzarella sticks. The food came out on a beautiful dish and we were served quickly. For an inexpensive meal, this did more than its job and I will continuously love Manny's. After unparalleled contentment with the meal I just devoured, I decided to go back to the register and order cannollis. The reason why dining in is the move is proven here. The cannolis come out beautifully plated and like all the food here, each one is made to order! Again, my friend and I devoured it and have not stopped talking about the perfect meal that we shared at Manny's. I will never stop coming back here and it is my absolute favorite restaraunt/pizza shop. Please keep this place open!“

“The food is always good and great waiters ❤️“

“I got a scrumptious turkey gobbler sandwich from here. This was my first turkey sandwich. The sandwich was easy to eat, turkey meat was not dry, and cranberry sauce was fresh. By the way, the cornbread was good. I was satisfied with my dinner.“

“The best guiness in boston also great food“

“Fabulous date night spot. Or night out with friends.“
