Great food and service! Our waiter was great and was so attentive to the people with food allergies and we really appreciated it!

Fantastic food, amazing service. Only complaint is the “admin fee” which feels tacky. I'm ok with raising prices to offset salary, but raising prices AND charging a fee?

We had a wonderful dinner here, there were 9 of us. We went after The Slutcracker, during intermission I called to let them know we might be late and to confirm we were going to be there. I was reassured by the host our table would be waiting. We got there right on time, table was ready. Our waitress Emily was very pleasant, quick eith getting drinks and food out, was very accommodating as we asked for separate checks. The restaurant was very nicely decorated for the holidays, very clean, plenty of space, the fireplace is gorgeous. Everyone enjoyed their drinks and meals. We all ordered different items, no complaints. Reasonable pricing. Thank you for a great time.

Was great returning to 5 horses after a while. Great service (Pedro was phenomenal), great food, good ambiance. We even got dessert on the house! Glad they were able to get us a table for 7 even for a last minute booking. Thanks again!

Good atmosphere, nice staff, loved the food and drink, and very convenient to parking and the T.

Sunday brunch menu was somewhat limited, food was OK, nothing outstanding. Service was good, a fake fireplace makes it feel homey and adds to the nice ambience.

The atmosphere is nice, pretty conducive to conversation. Our server, Alex S, was great. The food is good, but there seem to be fewer vegetarian options than in the past. Also, the sprouts and potatoes might have been a bit too hot/spicy. I noticed my fellow diners were avoiding them.

Very pleasant staff, good range of menu options, extensive beer list. Food quality very good. Comfortable atmosphere, maybe a bit loud for easy conversation... I would definitely go back!

Great spot to dine before a show at Teh Somerville Theater. Our server was very good. She was efficient and knowledgeable. The atmosphere was relaxed and fit the vibe for an easy dinner prior to a show.

Had a wonderful birthday celebration for my daughter. The food was very good and the people were very friendly! Wish the pretzel appetizer was a little bigger, but other than that, it was all great. Cute place. Will go again. 

Louisa

Very good food and drinks, lively atmosphere and our server, Alex S, was absolutely wonderful - 5 star service!

No kids menu or coloring pages. Limited food options. Thought they'd have steak since it is a tavern but no steak.

We were here because it was local and convenient. I was not disappointed.
I made a reservation for 1130am on Sunday...but didn't need it. In fact more people showed up and they seated them at the table next to us.

Enough food to take dome home. The tots were amazingly crisp and delicious. The one downside is that I didn't know tots came with my sandwich or I either wouldn't have ordered the appetizer for the table or woukd have asked fir a substitute.
Lots of light inside - and outdoor seating.

Service was unusually slow this time, and there were communication issues. E.g., my friend ordered something that they were out of, but we didn't find that out for quite some time. We've been to this restaurant often, so I consider this an unusual experience, not the norm for them.
