“Stopped in on a Friday afternoon . We ordered two beers which were ice cold! We ordered a cheeseburger with mushrooms and French fries , and a small eggplant sub , didn't want fries but wasn't told it come with onion rings too. Our food was delicious, waitress friendly . Too bad the place looks like a dive and the parking lot is a mess .“

“Today I ordered the Monti Cristo Sandwich !!! OMG !!! It was So Delicious that I ate the whole thing . I just couldn't Stop Eating it . I also got one to take Home . The Food at Lou Roc's is Incredible !! And the Portions of Food are big . And the Prices are Reasonable . My Friend and I usually go once a Week . But we will return again Tomorrow . Thank you For Such Great Food .“

“I don't know why we waited so long to go here. Silly, I guess, since this place is excellent. So we started with the chips and street corn dip, and that was great. The chips were cooked to perfection, and the dip had a great spice to it. My wife had a cheese pizza, and that was solid. I had the meatballs and ricotta with toasted gnocchi. Wow. Just wow. Great draft beers, excellent service (we sat at the bar) and a good vibe. I will DEFINITELY be back.“

“Birthday celebration at Brady’s. Chef brought out a 4 week aged Tomahawk steak for the birthday boy. Brian took excellent care of us and made most of our meal/wine decisions, which I appreciated. The best dessert - toffee top pudding. We will be planning our next event here“

“We just ate here the other day as our daughter has moved to Clinton. We were so thrilled with our entire meal, starting with the warm bread with oil/parmesan brought to the table. The clam chowder was the best I have ever had, many more clams than potatoes. The New Zealand mussels were so tender and the broth so dippable! We have told our daughter we will be visiting her much more often just so we can go here again. (I'm not sure she was thrilled with that news until we told her we would definitely take her out to a meal here!)Parking: Got a spot right in front of the restaurant for a Saturday lunch visit.“

“Great cheese steak! Looking forward to trying more of their menu.I was on a mission to find a good cheese steak in the area (it's surprising how few sub shops actually have them) when I stumbled upon this little gem during a google search. It was only 8 minutes away yet I had never noticed it before.  Now that I've tried it, I will definitely be going back!The cheese steaks were hot and cheesy, with lots of shaved steak in relation to the bread (a complaint I've seen in reviews of other places) and with options like onions, peppers, mushrooms, etc.  Everything you could want in a good cheese steak, with a choice of fries or onion rings on the side - hot and crispy.We also ordered the potato skins (at the top of their appetizer menu) since those caught my eye -- smothered in cheese and with nice big chunks of crispy bacon (not those sad little crumbs of bacon bits) with a side of sour cream.We got takeout, but I went and ordered in person so I could get a feel for this new-to-me place.  The interior was clean, with about a dozen tables for dine in, but the takeout traffic was crazy on a Friday night.  It was clear that they had a loyal following of regular customers, which speaks volumes.  Will order ahead next time, but the wait gave me time to think about all the other things I wanted to order -- particularly looking forward to tasting their Gyros and what looked like an awesome pastrami sandwich as well.A hidden gem.Kid-friendliness: They have a children's menuWheelchair accessibility: Accessible parking lot, entrance, and tables“

“Stopped by to grab breakfast around 11:30am and it was very busy. Ordered the Big Breakfast that came with 3 eggs, hasbrown, toast, bacon, sasauge and a pancake. Also ordered the sasauge gravy over biscuits. Friendly staff and great service!“

“i love it here! it’s my favorite breakfast place! i always get my usual but sometimes i get my usual and another random dish to try and i’ve loved every new thing! the servers are always so welcoming, friendly, and have a positive attitude. i love all of the decoration inside.. its definitely a place for everyone! it’s so cool and fun! this is the best breakfast place! i have an instagram account (@tifFRIES) for potatoes and i’ve posted many pics of my plates from Michael’s! people, food, everything is always amazing! ?♥️“

“We had the Sunday brunch which was very good. I had the French toast special which included bacon, eggs, sausage, potato, lettuce, French toast and a small amount of fruit. Other people had the shrimp and grits -- apparently the best grits that my wife had tasted outside of New Orleans. The Cobb salad was huge.The disappointment was the creme brulee cheesecake which was uninspired.“

“What a great place. Owner greets you at the door. And it begins. Have been there once before in the warm weather and loved it because besides the food, which was on point, they let my ( well behaved ) dog sit with us outside. Tonight did takeout for six and between the cocktails at the bar while food came out and the nice guitar player, another great experience! Got to love a place where the owner is greeting you with a hardy smile and exuberant hello as she manages the restaurant floor!“

“Me and Stephen took the kids to Pinecroft Dairy for Dinner last night. JOCELYN was the PERFECT waitress. Seating areas are small so she said, I have a booth in the corner or we could put two tables together. We thought maybe the booth, but it did not hold all six of us. Before we even saw the seats she said feel free to change your minds. We ended up opting the tables. While we were getting seated she said I know you just sat down, but I'm happy to get you drinks. She never let us wait for anything, asked several times if we needed anything else. This place was packed. Everything came in a timely manner. The FOOD: Best Scallops I've had in a long time. Everyone was so pleased with their food, and everything was cooked PERFECTLY. Prices were great - 6 people for under $100. Thank you PINECROFT!!!! I've been going their for Ice Cream for years. We never went to eat there. What a hidden GEM!!!!! We will be back.Kid-friendliness: I took four children with me ages 7-12. They were treated very well, the waitress was great with them, throughout the meal the waitress kept checking on us to see if we needed anything else.“

“This is four stars based on their great burgers. We drive 40 minutes for their burgers, past innumerable burger places. Particularly their black and blue burger, which offers real bleu cheese not just salad dressing, and a half pound of meat. Other food is pretty good; the burgers are awesome.“

“This place it's cute, casual, like you are walking into Grandma's house through the back door (the kitchen) Service it's great, very friendly staff, they serve your first cup of tea, loved that. The food was to die for, everything was amazing. We got to try some new things and the scones were the best I ever had, so much so that I didn't even miss the clotted cream (they make their own, it's different but still good)Lovely atmosphere with a bunch of friendly people.The only thing is that it took an hour and a half for us to get our food. We had somewhere else to be so we kind of rushed through tea.Overall, great place with awesome staff and delicious food.“

“Never been there before , was in town for business, I ordered 2 eggs, toast and their home made hash. The hash was spectacular, a lot of places say "home made" and it's regular old fashion hash , this was definitely made in house . Prices are very reasonable .“

“Their subs are out of this world! Me and my husband were passing by and got the steak bomb sub and meatball parm. Bun was perfectly toasted, not soggy, and meat was tender and juicy and sauce and veggies were perfect! Their sides are great too. A must try!“

“First time dining at Romaine's in several years. Overall, very nice experience. Food and service were excellent and the place has a very good vibe. My only complaint is that it's a little on the pricey side. I would definitely come back, though.“

“We were looking for a place to sit for breakfast that wasn't a diner. I came across this online, and after reading the reviews, we decided to check it out. So glad we did! All the reviews were right! Very good food! Couple things to know: it's cash only, and however, it appears on the menu is how it comes. For example I asked if their 3 egg omlettes could be made with 2 since I know I never am able to finish a 3 egg omlette and the waitress said "not really, they come how they come". I opted for a breakfast sandwich instead, which was delicious, and my husband's eggs and pancake were great, too!Parking: There are about 10 or 12 parking spots. Perfect for a weekday but may be an issue on a busy weekend“

“The owners are super friendly. They will serve you breakfast or lunch until closing. I've eaten here twice: brisket sandwich and second time 2 pancakes. Both are wonderful!Parking: Big lot, free to park there. It's a strip mall with other shops on either side of the Diner.“

“Wow! This place is outstanding, in an area of New England where there are lots of good diners. The parking is always full, which tells you something right off the bat. Our server recommended one of their breakfast specials - Eggs Benedict Irish Style with sliced corned beef... I ordered that and was over-the-top happy with it. Cooked to perfection ??“

“I go here every time when I visit my mom. I come from NH to go here. The food is amazing, fresh, and never disappointing. My mom goes here a lot, and I often visit her with my grown daughter. She loves this place so much. So you have had 3 generations come to your restaurant. It's always a great visit with amazing food, and the servers do a great job. We will always be back to visit.Parking: Tons of parking to the side and front of the building.Kid-friendliness: See a lot of kids with moms and dads. Plenty of things they will like for food.“

“First time there grabbed a couple sandwiches and stuff and a salad so I'd have some food for a couple days. Love how a lot of the stuff is fresh and homemade and from scratch such as soups, sandwiches, chili and scones. Definitely will come back. Food is great. Atmosphere is great people. There are great. Everything was just right. Felt very welcome when I walked through the door.“

“I don't know why we didn't go here sooner. Charming place, food was great, our server (Jen) was awesome... Very attentive as was the hostess. Food was excellent... Highly recommend the beet salad. I never get dessert, but I got the key lime pie and it was awesome. My wife would recommend an update to the furniture/decor to harness the old American pub/tavern, the booths are thin. Really enjoyed our dinner. Oh, the live music was great!“

“I had a very yummy meal at the Mill for the first time this week. I had a pulled pork salad and it was amazing! It had a large menu that all looked delicious. It has a pub like comfort and we had a wonderful server too. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and we will definitely be back!“

“This was my second visit in the past six months. Roughly halfway between my sister's house in southern NH and my house in Connecticut, it is now our established meeting for lunch location.The atmosphere is rustic and authentic, the food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the prices are reasonable. I can personally recommend the burger and the chicken parmesan (served with cheese tortellini). My sister got the salad with steak tips and did not offer to share... so it seems she enjoyed it!Great venue for parties, receptions, photo sessions, and marriage proposals. Get a table by a window to view the pond and water fowl.“

“Surprisingly awesome. The sliders were amazing. The people were friendly, and the staff were attentive. Beer was good and the game was on. They offer Keno and an event hall. Full bar and a decent menu. I'd come back for a burger and beer any day!“

“I took my bestie here tonight and had the ABSOLUTE best time!!! The food was amazing (we both use the gluten free menu!!!) the atmosphere was so wonderful and the service was just so beyond!!! Amara was truly one of the BEST servers I’ve ever had-so very kind and attentive and helpful with making everything so perfect and then I believe her name was Camille-came to let us stay longer allowing our wonderful Amara to go home-something I thought was just so very thoughtful & kind-our family has been in the food industry for years and these ladies along with the manager were among the very best I’ve ever had the pleasure of being served by!!! 100% will be back and I give this my highest recommendation!!!“

“You can't really go wrong here. Service is always on point, the food is really good, there is a wide array of selections and thr portions are generous.For a chain restaurant, it doesn't really feel like it.My go to is the tonion, 7 pepper sirloin salad, and chowder. I really like ALL the options. So hard to pick just 1 meal.“

“We had an absolutely wonderful evening at the phoenix. Our server BB was wonderful and attentative. I had the nachos. The chili on them were mildly spiced, but I had mine without jalapeños. The portion was huge and could easily be split by two for a full meal. My husband had the burger and was happy with it. My husband had a beer on tap, nothing special. I got a mudslide and it was excellent. For two drinks and all that it was $50. The resteraunt atmosphere was charming. Kinda bummed they didn't have any gluten-free rolls, but one can not expect that. We will be back.“

“We have been stopping here for breakfast a few times a month.The food is always very good, as are the prices. The owner & staff are friendly.But it goes beyond the food being good.Last visit after working a 12.5 hour shift, we finished our breakfast and when we were ready to leave found that the car would not start. While calling AAA the owner’s son and two customers came out to see if everything was ok & ask if they could help. They got us started.In a time when it’s hard to find a single person willing to go out of their way to help you we had three. Three people that we only know to say hi to when we see them in the restaurant. We do not even know their names.This is Clinton”s Sunshine Cafe. Not just great food and prices but friendly people that are willing to help you. People that make you feel welcome.I would highly recommend this place.“

“A few weeks ago I stopped in at the American Graffiti for a beer and some clam chowder. As I was driving home I got a call from Todd (the owner) and he told me that I dropped a 100 dollar bill on the floor and he would hold onto it for me. How many bars would return a 100 dollar bill. Not many!“

“Went last night with my son before a hockey game. Food was awesome, prices were great, portions were fantastic, and the staff was wonderful.Really a gem for the Greendale area.Ignore the one-star ratings below. If the reviewer can't bother to leave a review when they leave a rating like that, the rating is just bitter and irrelevant.“

“Awesome Service especially if it’s our amazing waitress Nicole! Breakfast was also great. Thank you Nicole in these days excellent customer service is hard to find and I also it’s not an easy job! Thanks again for a wonderful experience.“

“First time visiting Bennie’s. I liked the neighborhood atmosphere. Yes it’s small and old but I felt that if I went more often ‘Everyone would know my name’.My husband and I ordered nachos. So good. I only wished there was more salsa served with them. We paid extra for the chicken and it was worth it.I had a glass of Josh Chardonnay and my husband had a Bud on draft.Table could have been cleaned better but I never asked them to re clean it.I definitely would go back. Would like to try some sandwiches or meals.Parking: First come first serve. Located in a plaza. We had no problem on a Sunday afternoon.“

“Okay so overall it wasn’t terrible. The food was delicious. However the server took days to come back and check on us. But we understood it’s busy so she did try her best. There was so many birthdays when we were there so it got loud fast and it was one after another. But again, I’m here for the food and the food was amazing.“

“We had my sister's 50th this past Sunday as a private function. EVERYTHING was perfect. The food was positively delicious, the service was beyond exceptional and the atmosphere was classy yet extremely comfortable. I highly recommend The Cellar for any occasion.“

“Visiting from out of state on a business trip, we found Tatlista through a google search. We’ve been having to eat out for every meal this week and as a group we unanimously agreed that Tatlista was by far our favorite.Everything we ordered from beginning to end was top notch! Lobster Rangoons, zucchini chips, bourbon steak bites, the steak poutine! One in our group even branched out a little and asked if there was any dish not on the menu that the chef recommended and he was extremely pleased with the haddock dish special that was reserved for the future featured menu. Service was excellent, friendly, welcoming and upbeat.The chef is passionate, caring and was eager to hear about our experience. Thank you so much! I wish I could say we’d be back soon, but it’s quite the drive from Wisconsin! But know that we will always remember Tatlista. Maybe one day you will see us again?“

“Food is good, but had to wait an extra 20 mins for my order to be made because it was given to Grubhub. Waitress said they could see if GrubHub will bring it back since the original order was a chicken salad. No discount for their inconvenience. They could have at least waived the convenience fee on using a credit card.“

“Came in for brunch today with my son. The place was very clean. The bartender and waitstaff were prompt and friendly. We ordered a peach lemonade and a Bloody Mary. The peach lemonade was delicious and the Bloody Mary was FANTASTIC! We ordered the chicken and waffles and eggs Irish for food. The eggs Irish was delicious and the hash was homemade. The spice on the home fries was on point. My son LOVED his chicken and waffles. We will most definitely be back!“

“The steak tips bomb sub was amazing, one of the best I've had, skip the sweet potato fries though they were thin and disappointing, the regular fries my wife had were better. She ordered a chicken wrap she liked very much and we shared a basket of delicious fried pickles. The bartender who also served us, though not friendliest was nice enough and attentive (more important) getting our drinks and orders out in a good time even though she was by herself with maybe half a dozen people at the bar itself and another group of customers at a different booth. Overall great experience, will def return for another steak tips bomb!“

“Our 1st visit...won't be our last. Our server was Sarah...FABULOUS young lady. The meals were delicious. Baked Haddock made MIL very happy as it was the best she has ever had AnYwHeRe. I absolutely encourage people to try this place if they haven't already. Spacious dining area, not loud echoes like other 'factory' sites. Food is great.“

“I thought this place was out of business. Haven’t been able to call them in last few months. Tonight I was able to order thru Door Dash with self-pickup and was pleased to see they were actually open. I was told inside they were indeed closed about a month and then I told them I could not get through on the phone tonight also. I tried several times and I did it in front of them and their phone was not ringing so I guess they have an issue with their telephone line. Thankfully, I got my food, and it was quite delicious as in the past, I got the large order of pernil with rice & gandules. $23 and enough for at least 3 people. Try it!“

“I came here to eat with my family, and my parents just came to the US from Mexico so I wanted to take them out to eat. I had this amazing Spanish seater named Kamila, she was really sweet and made conversation with my family. Made my parents feel welcomed into the restaurant by speaking Spanish to us and making sure we were comfortable. My parents love her definitely need people like her to make Spanish customers feel welcomed!! Definitely will come back!“

“Just left Inwood Brunch & Lounge in Leominster. My boyfriend had the cheese burger. I did the lobster ravioli. Both were good. I had the house margarita which was great. We went for 5p and the place was just starting to get busier. Server and owner were attentive and a pleasant asking how everything was. I’ll be back to try the “

“Drinks were a little pricey but it's the city what do you expect. The food was absolutely outstanding- the bartender knew her stuff and was extremely kind and cordial towards my party and I. Also got to watch the patriots win a game. It was a small crowd but I think that's more with the pats having been mediocre than the venue. My new favorite wing spot in the woo“

“Not sure why I haven’t tried this restaurant sooner considering I drive by it every day on my way to work. On the recommendation of someone I finally went here for dinner. It was very very good. I got the “chicken cordon blue” and although it wasn’t a traditional stuffed chicken cordon blue I honestly can’t even complain because IT WAS THAT GOOD. I am a French onion soup connoisseur.. and there’s was honestly in the top two of French onion soups I’ve ever had …. Which says a lot !!! The chicken was super crispy and the sauce served on top was perfection. My husband had the ribs which he thought were very good. Other members of our party had the fish and chips which they said was one of the best they ever had. Will be back … especially for that French onion soup !“

“4 of us (siblings, 65-77) went for lunch at noon. We were greeted by Sean and shown to a very comfortable booth that could have held 6 of us. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The cleanliness was top notch, including the rest rooms.June was our waitress and was very attentive, told us to take our time (it was very quiet at that time) and gave us a very complete explanation of the menu and specials. After ordering June came by to make sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive.When the meals were ready they were brought out by the chef, Ron.3 of us ordered the fish and chips which, by consensus, were the best we had ever had; great crusty coating, large piece of fish perfectly cooked. The plentiful sides were French fries and cole slaw. The fries were crispy outside, tender inside. The fourth ordered a Reuben sandwich; large, plenty of tender meat. He said it was excellent.Getting ready to leave we met Ron again on the way out and complimented him on the great meals. He explained about how careful they were about getting quality ingredients, how often they received deliveries, etc. You could tell he was someone who cared about what he was providing.The four of us agreed that we all had a new favorite place to go. Looking forward to our next trip there.“
