New American Restaurants near Swampscott, MA

“What a great night! We thought we were going to a fundraiser, but after checking the ticket it’s next month🤦🏼‍♀️ So since we were ready for a night out we ventured to Swampscott to check out G Bar! Reservations highly encouraged, but our timing worked out perfectly and we got two seats at the bar! Had a delicious meal starting with crispy shrimp with sriracha, lemon garlic aioli, cilantro then we shared a Caesar salad, lightly dressed and not too garlicky and had Wasabi tuna and NY Strip steak for our entrees! Yummo!! Patrons were so nice, as was all the staff! Andrew was a great bartender and seemed to know everyone there! Great vibe, great food! We’ll definitely be back! — eating dinner with my love with Joe Florentino at G Bar and Kitchen.“

“I had lunch with friends here yesterday and everything was great but I have to mention that our server, Russell, was hands done, one of the best servers I have ever had. He gave us plenty of time to catch up with each other with cocktails (about an hour!), He paid for a round of drinks because we wanted to order from the brunch menu but missed it because we talked for so long. He said it was his fault for not reminding us! Unheard of! He let us have a leisurely 3 hour lunch, with no pressure at all, and was very attentive when we needed him. He even sent over a delicious birthday dessert without even being asked! Russell is The Best!!“

“Lovely spot with spectacular views of the water. Beautifully designed interior. Delicious, creative food. Great service.“

“We stumbled on the amazing restaurant and stopped in twice while on vacation in South Boston! The food was unbelievable and the service was fantastic! 👏🏼 This is going to be our go to spot every time we make our annual trip to Boston. Love the local vibe and the chef and owner, Asia, was hand on and personally brought out the food she so skillfully prepared!! HIGHLY recommend Moonshine 152! 💕@chefasiamei“

“Superb all around experience 👍👍. Chef Daniel is 🔝. Great wine and Bar programs 🍷🍾🍹“

“Love Settler! My partner and I go for special occasions and have always had an incredible experience ❤️❤️“

“Beautiful spot. Had our anni dinner and we had an intimate corner spot. It was lovely and everything we ordered was 10/10 in every way (salmon and roast chicken entrees with Brussels sprouts and truffle potato pavé sides). Ordered espresso martini off the dessert menu as my main drink for the night and the Alaskan drink was also great/strong. Right next to Offsuit!“

“Fabulous evening. I made my reservation a month ago and was surprised when we were seated in a faraway corner on the lower level. We asked to move upstairs and the host gladly accommodated us. Our server was attentive and friendly and made great recommendations. Calamari was a little salty, but everything else was perfect! This is always my favorite pre-ballet spot. A nice espresso martini is just right to stay awake for the rest of the evening!“

“This restaurant has a cool sports bar vibe while also having an upscale dining atmosphere. We ordered mango chicken, mahi, and crab cake. They all taste fresh, tender, and juicy! The portions were big and the service was great. The only personal flavor preference is I wish the dishes could have less salt. Overall, a relaxing experience!“

“Me gusto mucho compartir con todos ustedes ,muchas gracias fue una noche espectacular...“

The staff and management are so sweet and truly care about the service they provide. This really is the place to go and if you haven’t yet you better get on it babe! Will be here once a month at least! Seriously obsessed! 🤍“

“Found this place on a random search and it was above and beyond our expectations. Our server, Makaylee, made amazing recommendations and was extremely attentive. The hot chicken benny with truffle oil was amazing! The relaxing atmosphere was exactly what you’d want for a Sunday brunch. We will definitely be back!“

“I have been a Seaport resident since 2018 and I have never received the level of customer service, attention to detail and overall care that I received from Scott at DIG. My food was promptly provided and the level of taste and satisfaction is unmatched. No other Heathy restaurants in the Seaport area can hold a match to DOG food and service. I am not impressed easily as I have never ever written a Seaport review but I would being doing DIG an injustice by NOT giving credit where credit is due. DIG employee Scott is a great assets to DIG for it is his professionalism that will bring me back with friends! Thank you for a great Wednesday lunch...see you soon.“

“Food, drinks and service were all excellent. We will definitely be back again!“

“Excellent setting for business lunches - quiet, refined and consistently satisfying.“

“Good food, nice friendly environment. Big bar!“

“An otherwise unassuming hotel lobby bar, Kestra offers live jazz several nights a week. We live in the neighborhood and were passing through the lobby as a shortcut on a rainy night, and noticed the music emanating from the lounge so made a plan to return to try their menu and musical offering. Kestra's menu is limited but not unusually so for a lobby bar. We had their charcuterie board, the delicious chili cheese biscuits, and a prosciutto flatbread, all of which were satisfying. Where Kestra exceeded expectations that evening was in the music. A trio of local musicians included bassist Jon Burr, guitarist Sal DiFusco, and violinist Mark Russell. All were exemplary, in particular Russell, whose career has been inspired by Stephane Grappelli, one of my long-time favorites. What a treat, to happen upon such high-caliber talents in a hotel lobby bar (and with no cover charge)! Besides wishing for a few more choices on the menu, we'd have loved to get a table closer to the musicians. For whatever reason, tables for diners are amassed around a fireplace and far removed from the entertainment, as if to relegate the music to the background. All that said, we'll be keeping Kestra on our radar as an easy-going option for casual bar snacks and top-flight local jazz.“

“Not sure what the experience the other reviewers here had but we had an unbelievably amazing experience! The views were out of this world- nowhere else in Beverly can say the same. Our server Carolyn was absolutely amazing- she was so diligent with the allergies at our table and took the time to recommend things that would fit all of our needs. We will definitely be back and would always request her. Food was amazing, huge portions, flavorful, and came out so quickly! A must in the area! The only down-side was parking, but we figured it out!“

“After 3 days of lackluster customer service at car rentals, hotels and restaurants (the kind where you have to track down silverware and plates to consume the food that has been placed in front of you) our experience here deserved a fabulous review. From the time we were greeted, to being seated and on our way out the door late on a Monday night, the experience was marvelous! Our server, Nate made great recommendations and was enthusiastic about our order, unobtrusively kept the water glasses filled and had the delicate balance of checking on us mastered.The unexpected star of our meal was the roasted beet and faro salad, although the pretzel and poutine were not far behind. The food was so good we even forgot about the beautiful cocktails we were having. Although we arrived an hour before closing, we were never rushed. Two weary travelers were cared for, served fabulous cocktails and delicious food in a timely manner so that we could return to our room to get ready for a morning flight. Highly recommend this establishment.“

“Fun atmosphere. Good service and food“

“great spot to grab a beer waiting for train or bus. small plates available for food“

“Perched with killer views, this spot dishes out some seriously tasty grub. The clam chowder was a creamy dream, and the fish and chips? Crispy perfection. Portions are massive—come hungry! The kids’ menu is a beast, packed with options for picky eaters.
But, it’s not all smooth sailing. Dropped my rating from 5 to 4 stars because they tried to sneak in charges for kids’ menu sides that are supposed to be included. They claimed they’d fix it, but one charge still slipped through. Also, my beer arrived with some mystery substance smeared on the rim of the glass—yuck. They swapped it out quick, but still. Solid spot, just check your bill and your glass!“

“After my son's soccer game we decided we wanted to go some where new for lunch. We were so glad we did! The food was delicious and the service was great! It's a "tiny hole in the wall" kind of place, but the decor matches the vibe and it's definitely a hidden gem.“

“Good food. Pleasant atmosphere“

“Sit at the counter and enjoy the best food in BOSTON and a show! This local chef is whipping up creative dishes in an immaculate kitchen that runs like a well oiled machine but with a laid back cool chill vibe. Hey Michelin this place should 100% be on your Bib Gourmand list!“

“I'm originally from just outside New Orleans, LA. Came here with a friend and was all too curious that they had Jambalaya on the menu. I cannot stress this enough. Order the Jambalaya. It reminded me of home.“

“Healthy Vegetarian bowls in heart of windy Boston Downtown“

“The food and drink were awesome, restaurant was clean and organized, service was fast and great, and Marcy is the best!“

“Good service. Cool atmosphere.“

“We loved the uncommon beer selections and atmosphere! So much that we stopped in twice both night we were in town.“

“We tried breakfast and lunch at this conveniently located hotel restaurant. They offer a buffet option, but we opted for regular entrees. One day, we had eggs benedict, and the next day, we had eggs and hash. The juice was pricey at $6, but tea was free—just hot water with the tea bags on the table. Coffee was $5. The service was good, but paying the check took a while. You have to give it back to your waiter, not just head to the front to pay. The restaurant is spacious and bright. Sharon provided good service and is also able to speak Chinese.“

“The staff were friendly, fast, and made sure everything was just right. Whether you're into burritos or bowls, they’ve got you covered. It’s a perfect spot for a quick, satisfying meal without compromising on quality. Highly recommend!“

“Very cool idea. I love not having to chase after the ping pong balls. 🤪“

“Had burger, beet salad & wings, all was very good“

“Some of the best steak around considering it is a chain! Had the American Wagyu 9oz Filet Mignon and it was amazing!“

“Beautiful hotel bar with attentive staff.“

“I'm here nearly every day before work and the food, drinks, and staff are all equally exceptional. The only coffee shop that's batting 1000 on a perfect drink every time.“
