“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“We went looking for Barbecue International and found out it was changed to Himalayan Kitchen. First timers and we ran into the owner who was super nice. We had the chicken pakoras, chicken tika masala lunch, garlic naan and beef chilli. Honestly favorite restaurant in Somerville now, definitely going to be regulars here. Everything was spiced perfectly and was amazing. 10/10 perfect comfort food and also good day food. Really happy we stopped by.“

“Bbq chick: tender juicy; brisket sandwich: a pile of meat drenched in sauce hugging bread; beans so perfect you know they did not come in a can; collard greens sans pork superbly succulent; etc etc �“

“The serving team was very busy running around trying to serve the diners and takeout orders. This place satisfied a craving I didn’t even know I had. The staff were really friendly and they helped us through it all.The atmosphere is casual and the food is yummy.“

“Decided to walk through Allston on a grody, misty afternoon and look for some food. Walked in by chance and at my SO’s insistence that we give it a look. I loved everything about the aesthetic, and enjoyed the soft music playing in the background. Being able to choose the ingredients I wanted - knowing they were organic and that they looked more than delicious raw...that was the absolute best part. The gentleman at the front was supremely helpful and answered any question thrown at him - by anyone in the shop. The price was more than worth the amount of food received, and the care extended to us as guests was wonderful. I absolutely would recommend anyone to give this a try. Don’t hesitate to ask a question, you will definitely get an answer. :)“

“Words can't describe the incredible experience I had today. I especially want to point out our servers Kayla and Ethan for their beautiful service. They are attentive, make good conversation, and walked us through the entire process. I will gladly be back again as this is now my new favorite Japanese place!“

“Wonderful food and service“

“Blackstrap is my GO TO for bbq, neighborhood vibes, live music, darts, etc. The staff is so fun, the food and drinks are amazing, it’s comfortable and chill but you still get great service and food/drink. The owners are super hands on and always there, and are such nice and cool people. Definitely recommend, especially for their live music nights! Nothing else like it around here!“

“I took a trip to this restaurant for my 80+ Neighbor and also my teen Daughter. The Atmosphere is your typical Arlington, Mass ave fast food place. A few seats, not a huge seating area, yet there is seating. It's a no frills type of place, the license plate decorations definitely add to the BBQ traditional atmosphere if you are eatting at one of the tables.

Both my Neighbor and Daughter raved about the meat! My Neighbor said the Ribs were the best she has had since she moved to New England. (She is from Georgia) Also my Daughter was very impressed with the Brisket. She said it was flavored perfectly, not to much smoke, just right. She said the sauce was not too sweet or overly hot spicy yet great flavor (I ordered her the Gold sauce). She said the meat was not dry or gristle covered, she said the marbling and cooking were on point!

I did not order for myself, because I haven't eaten meat in a long time, yet my Daughter insisted I try her side dishes. They were OK. Slight smoky flavor in the vinegar style southern potatoe salad, and the mashed potatoes were seasoned pleasantly with butter and garlic.

The staff were not the most knowledgeable or best at communicating with each other, However they were polite, which is a must for any BBQ place.

They made a slight mistake by forgetting my neighbors cornbread and that the orders needed to be in seperate bags. (Communication issue between staff most likely.)

When I asked for the cornbread one of the staff members wanted me to give him back my Daughter's order so he could take the cornbread out of it.

That's a No, No.

First off we paid for a second cornbread seperate for my neighbor. Also you never take a plate back from a customer to move food off a plated and served order. Food safety 101 and also Mass law. No cross contamination please. Also even though it's line style serving, you can't see them plateing which I do not like when I eat somewhere.

My Daughter told me I better not take stars off this review because her food was Awesome Sauce.

If you like meat, and you want southern style BBQ while your in the area, this place has what your looking for.“

“This place is absolutely incredible! If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. Food was incredible and service was incredible!“

“Overall ingredients + service + ambiance, I give it 3 stars 🌟🌟🌟 (Hawaii's is a bit better 😆🌺)“

“Stopped by for lunch and was very satisfied with the price and taste of the food and drinks. Good friendly employees in a nice
Clean updated brewery. Food was filling enough I had to save some for later. Will definitely return for a night out on the town.“

“Very high quality delicious char-broiled hamburgers, and I used to get huge steak fries, all even-sized. I had been going to Aris Barbecue at the Quincy Market building, next to Faneuil Hall, and their quality has stayed the same for 45 years!“

“Coming from the south, I view BBQ a bit differently and I’m always on the hunt for something in New England that gives me that feeling of home. Well, this place is it! I dare anyone to find better ribs for the money you pay here! Fall off the bone ribs with just enough bite. The sauce is the perfect blend of tangy and sweet. This country boy will be back soon!

Parking: Nice sized lot with just enough spaces“

“Definitely will order from here again,Meatballs are perfect and sauce is superb!“

“The pork quesodilla WOW, subtle sweetness, great crunch, gooey cheese. Key lime pie AMAZING not to tart, firm texture. The server Bea. Was so NICE and generous. You can play Mario kart at the bar!!! Music Playlist great. TV size and pool placement are perfect. Definitely coming back for the live music and a differnet food choice.“

“I’ve never had skewers bbq before at a restaurant and this was an excellent experience to introduce me to the cuisine. The meats were so well seasoned. I was so happy with everything I got and our service. Honestly, I dreamt about the Mongolian skewers and cucumbers. SO GOOD!!!“

“Really good BBQ and chili was good as well lots of meat. Brisket,Pork and burnt ends. Assortment of sauce’s to choose from. Variety of choices on the menu. Outside dining or get it togo.“

“Great food and large portions!“

“Our favorite pizza in Dedham!“

“Incredible experience! Wait staff were very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Food was cooked to perfection for us over a charcoal grill. Very tasty sides dishes. Next time in Boston we will definitely be back. One of our waiters, Jinoh, was in training and gave great service! Hello from Nova Scotia Jinoh!“
