New American Restaurants near Wayland, MA

“Really amazing steak tips!“

“The food was great!! The service, I should say our service was very poor. We waited over 47 minutes before we were served our meals. The problem was not the kitchen because a couple who came in after us was served before us. It was the wait staff.“

“Cook in Needham is my favorite place for brunch every weekend. Dinner and Lunch here are also fantastic. The food is outstanding but what it makes more special is the service and kindness from the staff. Johnny is the absolute best and he has always taken great care of us and remembered us. I highly recommend Cook to anybody it is definitely worth it!“

“Wonderful! Great chicken sandwich on amazing bread! Friendly helpful staff. A true joy to find this place and have lunch. This place is very special indeed.“

“I went yesterday with my friend and had a fantastic experience. The food is delicious and the environment is delightful. Highly recommend.“

“The fried calamari was reheated, which slightly affected its texture, but the overall vibe of the place was delightful. The service was commendable, and the staff was attentive to customer needs. While the food was initially a bit salty, the issue was promptly addressed, enhancing the dining experience.“

“We had a wonderful experience and have returned a few times. All of our dishes were tasty except for the ninebark salad. It was delicious although for the price they were extremely skimpy with the lettuce, and I finished my salad and watched everyone else enjoy their dishes. If you charge that price point for a salad I believe you should be generous with the foundation of the dish which is lettuce.“

“Special dinner or just a night out, my family and I have had many extraordinary meals at 80 Thoreau. Most recently 5 of us dined to celebrate several significant events. We spent almost 3 hours and had a truly special evening. The service was exceptional and the food superb. Everything we ate was 10 out of 10. And so was our night. Thank you 80 Thoreau!“

“We all loved the wonderful atmosphere. The food was delicious! There were 5 in our group. We all ordered something different and everyone was pleased.“

“always excellent meals and sides“

“Everything was great! Service and food was excellent!“

“We have had breakfast lunch at Eli’s several times, and have always had a great experience. Creative offerings, delicious food, large portions, great service. If we lived closer, we would eat there more often. Highly recommend!“

“Looking for dinner options along Moody Street and this was an easy choice. I've been to Dallas and had a fun evening in their Deep Ellum neighborhood so why would I skip the opportunity to try it again.

Lots of options here, considering we have meat eaters, pescatarians and kosher eaters in the group tonight. We started off with a plate of their pickles and they were fabulous. With it, beers! Including a draft German beer for me and a tin of a non-alcoholic for Mrs. K.

For main, I chose the Italian sandwich and it was fabulous. Well loaded and very tasty if perhaps a little messy. But that's what napkins are for. Mrs. K. chose the grilled cheese and said it was excellent.

Great service here and we had a fabulous evening. Five stars!“

“If I need to stop on the Mass Pike, I always try to make sure it's at one of the rest stops with a Cheesey Street.
The food is delicious, and it's great to support small business.
Which sandwich to get is always a hard decision, but I usually get either the Caprese or the classic 3 cheese, sometimes with bacon.“

“Magnificent experience from waiter to menu to food, it was a culinary encounter with greatness.“

“Amazing food! We went for a special wi e night and service was perfect, food was amazing!“

“I recently stayed here for a work conference. The hotel rooms were spacious, cozy and modern. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. The lobby bar and restaurant was beautiful and the food was very good. Meeting spaces were very nice.“

“I frequent the Tack Room often do to the fun friendly staff and the excellent food! The number of burgers that come out of the kitchen proves how fabulous they are!!!!! The rib dinner is my favorite, I’ve had it three weeks in a row. ITS THAT GOOD! Chef Dan has quite the imagination to excite the customers with a changing menu for the seasons.“

“Great food and great service!“

“I just discovered this gem after moving from Philly to Natick 2 years ago. I am obsessed. It was like I was eating my mom’s or grandmom’s best and freshest homemade soups (which nothing has ever been able to compare to until now). Low sodium options are amazing - you can’t find from scratch, quality ingredient made stuff like this easily. I will be a regular customer!“

“Kaua was an excellent host for us at the Pantry restaurant at The Verve Hotel Boston Natick. He was very welcoming when we came in the door. Was available if we needed anything. All around very helpful and made breakfast a very nice relaxed experience.“

“Great food and great service..👍“

“During our recent stay at Fairfield in Framingham, we dined at their in-house restaurant. We were instantly welcomed by Katie, the hostess, so we opted to sit at the bar. She was quick to deliver finely prepared drinks as we browsed the menu. There were several options that kept us undecided but we both agreed on the ribeye steak dinner and were beyond pleased with the quality and flavor of the meal. Katie kept us entertained with quick witted chat and top notch service for us and the (by-now) full bar. Truly needed after a long day of travel!“

“Got the Chickpea Fritter Platter and absolutely loved it! As a college student, it can be really hard sometimes to find places with good healthy food that doesn't break the bank! I’m happy to say the platter was reasonably priced since it comes with enough stuff to make two meals out of it, and it is absolutely delicious and healthy!“

“Excellent clam chowder!
We also ordered the chicken and bacon rigatoni, the wings and a burger with Cajun fries. Everything was excellent. Burger made to order. Pasta perfectly cooked and everything was very well seasoned. Portions were amazing. We forgot to take pictures because we were really hungry.“

“So glad we found this spot!! Food is true farm to table, fresh and absolutely delicious. We had the crab cake, beet salad, halibut and fish tacos, everything was fantastic, even the coffee with dessert was a notch above the rest!! Service was friendly and attentive, we will be back to see Courtney!! Thank you for an outstanding meal, it was a perfect relaxing evening to end a long week.“

“GREAT staff. Our waiter was fabulous. Food was delicious. Steak tips and baked fish were so good. Warm cookie with vanilla ice cream for dessert was outstanding.“

“Great service but it took a bit longer for our food to get here. When I got the Alfredo blackened chicken it was definitely not Alfredo sauce. It was some brown spicy sauce and it was not fettuccini. I think the kitchen messed that up, but our server was nice and took it off the check because she knew it wasn’t Alfredo. Other than that there were big TVs so we could watch the game and it wasn’t too busy.“

“The staff was friendly. The food was delicious. The price was reasonable.“

“I had lunch with my daughter and we both thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The service was friendly and efficient, and the value was great for the quality.  We each had a cup of the tomato basil soup which comes with the most delicious crostini. Highly recommend it. My daughter had a spicy pasta with a pink sauce, bacon and some vegetables, which was succulent, and I had a lovely salad with grilled chicken. We were too full for dessert. While we did have a reservation, so we didn't wait at all, I think most of the time walk-ins are welcome because this is a café within a department store so people don't stay for very long.“

“I give it 4 stars clean and friendly staff.“

“We went early New Year's Eve and had excellent service and our salmon was outstanding. A very generous serving and fair pricing. Desserts were excellent. Good menu for dessert choices. And our server, Douglas, was excellent and personable.“

“good food great service great time“

“Great spot just off 95. Warm and friendly staff with a great comfort menu. Nice place for a date night.“

“Great place for a Friday afternoon drink and app! Bartenders are great!“

“Kens steak house is a metro west gem! The reasonably priced meals, quality of the food, and very friendly wait staff. This is my wife and my “go to” restaurant when we want a great meal at a reasonable price, When you waking into Kens it feel “comfortable” like it’s your own home . The wait staff are so friendly and patient. They never rush you and are very knowledgeable about the menu. The steaks are the specialty of the house. Each time we’ve had steak it was cooked yo perfection! The drink prices are reasonable and the desserts taste home made! Great place and I hope they are around for many more years!!“

“Tough to choose; everything was great.. Delicious food, amazing cocktails..“

“⸻ We had such a wonderful Easter brunch experience at the Riverbend! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxing meal. The service was outstanding as well; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a top-notch brunch experience. We'll definitely be back!“
