“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“

“The music sucks. It affects my overall enjoyment of the meal experience. Why can’t you play classic rock which everyone can enjoy. You play computerized crap which appeals to no one .“

“This place is excellent. Never had a bad time here. Definitely would recommend! Food and service is top class.“

“Went to the Oysterman in Scituate. The most amazing meal from start to finish. We had oysters, ceasar salad, pork chops,swordfish. It was amazing. The staff was even better. Never missed a beat !!! Thank you for an amazing night. Everything was above and beyond anyone's expectations. Drinks were beautifully decorated with flowers too. Don't miss out. Try this new hot spot with amazing decor, Food and staff“

“Everyone who worked here was so nice and made you feel like family. We ate here recently before going to a South Shore Music Circus show (very nearby) and our meals were delicious. I got the baked haddock and I loved the cracker crumb on it. Will definitely return.“

“Great food and atmosphere!“

“Second time being here, been pleased both times! The ruben is delicious and so are the steak frites
If you get the pork dumplings i highly encourage you to keep your plate and dip your fries in the peanut butter sauce. The steak also pairs exceptionally well. Id highly encourage and reccomend to have that sauce be something on the side that could be ordered with all plates its really good“

“Very good meal and drinks“

“Their gluten-free chicken piccata is absolutely out of its world. I would totally recommend that. I cannot wait to try all of the other dishes😋“

“Great service! Great food!“

“The Square Cafe is now my go-to spot. Their bread pudding is the star - I'm still dreaming about it. The holiday cocktail menu is fun creative and festive. The Sesame Salmon is a masterpiece - perfectly seared with a crispy crust while staying tender inside. The spicy soy beurre blanc sauce and wakame seaweed salad create an amazing blend of flavors and textures. What makes this place truly special is the exceptional service. Sean, Amanda, and Jimmy created such a welcoming atmosphere for our party of 9. Jimmy didn't miss a beat and was very attentive. Sean & Amanda's friendly personalities made the experience even better. Thank you! Whether you're coming for the amazing bread pudding (which you absolutely should) or the delicious food and cocktails, their warm hospitality made our visit extra special. Five stars, easily one of the best dining experiences on the South Shore.“

“I’ll start with the positives: the food was excellent, the drinks and views were awesome, and even the wait wasn’t bad since the chairs were comfortable and you could grab a drink while waiting. That said, this is definitely not the best spot for a relaxing Saturday date night. There were so many unsupervised kids running wild that it completely killed the vibe. Three separate groups let their kids kick and throw dirt until they broke the landscape lights. Another child (maybe 5) spent nearly an hour standing knee-deep in the pond in her sneakers, again with zero supervision. I don’t mind kids being kids, but when they’re totally unsupervised and destroying property while parents just zone out, it’s a whole different level. Add to that kids jumping all over the dock, it was pure chaos.“

“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!“

“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!“

“schooner's has the absolute best fish and chips, haddock is perfectly cooked, fish moist, batter light and crispy, thin onion rings and crispy fries. The best around!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.

“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!“

“Been coming to the The Beth several times and every time a positive experience. Great spot for dinner, lunch, snack, drinks or date night by the marina at the Shipyard in Hingham. Greeted by the hostess and sat down. Clean. Not too loud. Comfortable for conversation. Well lit nicely decorated. Chester our waiter was excellent. Courteous, professional, attentive, friendly and polite. Food was excellent. Delicious and prepared perfectly. Ordered the fish and chips, bbq smash burger, tuna nachos and classic hamburger. Will definitely return. Highly recommend.“

“We LOVE Bongi’s. The pot pies are the absolute best. And the sliced turkey for sandwiches is also the best- the freshest anywhere. The staff is friendly and efficient. The turkey BLT is my favorite. But the turkey nuggets are also just delicious. Can’t say enough good things about Bongi’s♥♥“

“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“

“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!“

“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!“
