“Great Food , Good atmosphere“

“I liked the burger. Truffle Gorgonzola fries were ok— I liked the fries, but didn’t really like the sauce. Stomach felt a little funny after, but not sure if that was the burger or fries.

Food came quick. Space was clean and small but not crowded.

Parking lot out back had multiple spaces available and was $1.35/hr. There’s some 2 hr free spots a few blocks down but you have to parallel park. Some 1 hr free spots closer to the restaurant but those were almost all taken Saturday lunch hour.“

“We stopped in on the way home from the airport, and it was amazing! From the moment we walked in the door, we felt welcomed. The atmosphere and food were awesome. I highly recommend the Mickey’s Chicken special and the red sangria which was a deep dark red- as sangria should be. Yum! My children loved our Irish waitress who Made them laugh and feel special. This restaurant is over an hour from where we live, but there is no doubt we will travel back often. Wonderful experience!“

“5 STAR TREATMENT!!! We had my husbands surprise birthday party there last night for 40 guests and it went off without a hitch! Jim the manager went out of his way to check all the little details that make an event special from custom menus to an easel for a sign. The waitstaff was wonderful and accommodating! The food was wonderful and the room was comfortable! Nobody left the party early!!! Thank you Olivadi!“

“Great food and great service!“

“Love coming here…my favorite sport“

“The Food Is Excellent! Service is Top Shelf! The Whole Restaurant ( Waitresses, bar tenders, cooks etc) is Awesome! Great Place 😉“

“Great service and drinks and food are amazing lots of tvs for when games start back up“

“Great food, great service. Friendly employees and friendly patrons! Piggy pancakes were a hit!“

“1st time here for lunch . The atmosphere was pleasant. The bourbon bbq hamburger and tater tots were delicious. I would definitely go back .“

“I love StockYard. We haven't been in a long time as we moved faraway. Now, after 10 years we came back and it was like we never stopped coming to eat here. The food was super delicious. The NY Sirloin, and the tenderness of the Fille Minog was extraordinary. Outstanding customer service. The drinks were superb. And the complimentary chocolate cake with ice cream for Father's day was out of this world. Thank you.“

“Great food and service!! The staff rocks!“

“Great service, great atmosphere, great locals. Beer and spirit selection perfect for the area. Prices are ideal. Bring your own food in with some good options nearby, they sell rotating chips for $1.50 which is clutch for late night snack. Every employee I ever encountered showed respect and hospitality to their guests. Really isn't a better place in Brighton. The restaurant group has some of the top bars in Boston.

Parking: Easy street parking. 57 bus access. Ubers never a wait.

Wheelchair accessibility: Street level, plenty of space to move, easy to order a drink, and staff assistance who are more than willing to help if needed.“

“Five enthusiastic stars! I would give more if I could! The burrito lives up to the hype, and I love that they offer it in various sizes to accommodate different appetites. The salsa is perfectly spicy. And the service is phenomenal! Family owned and run establishment. No wonder they’ve been around for years and maintain stellar reviews. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Cityside Tavern is a casual restaurant spot in Boston's Brighton neighborhood and a great place to dine with friends or that special someone. Plenty of television screens are scattered everywhere to catch live sports action, the ambiance has the young college crowd (being near Boston College), the music is moderate in volume and the menu has many excellent food options to choose from. The restaurant is divided into two floors – one downstairs section and one upstairs section – to allow for additional seating capacity. In the summer season, an outdoor seating patio on the second level gives patrons a great view of the traffic flow through Cleveland Circle. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking an upscale dining experience in one of Boston's bustling neighborhoods.“

“My family and I were very impressed with everything! Food was quick and fresh! Service was awesome. And the drinks were great too!“

“The staff and management are always super nice and the food delicious! Guaranteed good time!“

“Fantastic food, service and atmosphere! A must try for dinner in the Boston area 🙂“

“I have lived in the Boston-esque area for twelve years and have eaten so many good meals, but the fish tacos here are the only meal I needed to have before my upcoming move out west(ern MA). Cocktails are fun and creative, service is 13/10, the XL portions of fries that require to-go boxes are the only fries I’ve ever found to reheat well, and if you’re lucky, Steve will be tending bar. I love going at the slightly quieter times but I’ll never gatekeep the euphoria experienced by a meal here. Bonus perks: Max & Chelsea have the best senses of humor, the murals on the patio are always amazing, the beer and wine selection are vast (also the mocktails!), and the decor always feels like your favorite “I Spy” book.“

“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!“

“Always great food and service!“

“A hidden gem that opened last year and now our weekly go-to for Japanese - sashimi, sushi, ramen and poke bowls. The staff is very friendly and the owner, Anna, makes you feel so at home. The sashimi/sushi are fresh, delicious and prepared beautifully. The cocktails are creative and well made - mai tais, pistachio martinis, you name it. The kids (and adults) enjoy various fruit teas/slushees with optional boba. They also offer Chinese and Thai food on the menu. Staples like beef teriyaki sticks, sichuan fried rice or tangerine beef are must haves and often added to our meals with lots of leftovers to go home with. Highly recommend Wasabi Asian Bistro&Bar to anyone looking for great Asian food.“

“I've been dining at Il Capriccio for a long time and they only get better: great drinks (Dana) knowledgeable staff (Jordan) and a deep wine list that is expertly curated (Jan). The food is perfection whether it's a fish course, home made pasta or perfectly cooked and presented appetizers. The staff makes you feel welcome, not rushed and perfectly content. I take my family, my wife and have business dinners here as well.“

“Cooks made the most amazing, delicious mango coconut cod special ever with perfectly pickled cabbage! Great balance of flavors. Thanks. Great service, fun atmosphere as always. Also love fresh Maine Lunch on tap.

Parking: Park out back in lot by the train. Easy restaurant access.“

“Tara was a great server, and the food was amazing (as always)! :)“

“Outstanding! Great food and drinks, we are regulars. We took friends from the mid-west, and they said Margaritas was the best Mexican restaurant in the U.S.A.“

“Everything! The service is great, the food is outstanding, and the atmosphere is welcoming ! We will be back!!!“

“Fabulous pizza !! Thank you“

“Excellent vibe, great food selection and cold Guinness 👍🏼👍🏼“

“This place is wonderful!!! Great food, and decor. Even the Ladies bathroom is chill. Shout out to Sam our server who was so cool! Definitely coming back :)“

“Taylor was beyond professional tonight. what was a very calm, civil election night turned into chaos for a second because of one patron. Taylor was beyond patient and very professional when this man was being very disruptive and she gave him a fair warning as he had been kicked out before. After he escalated by causing more trouble, Taylor calmly told him to leave and he grabbed another patrons purse and threw it at her, thankfully missing, but having things fly from what he hit. Thankfully he did leave and I cannot express how professional Taylor was with this whole situation. I hope he has a perma ban because nobody-especially an employee-should have to deal with this. I will return because of her professionalism and warmth as a barkeep.“

“DELICIOUS FOOD. Very different food fair with choices for all diets. Excellent, friendly service. Good cocktails. I’ll be back !“

“I’ve gone to One Bistro in Norwood again and again for the last couple of years and not only is it my new favorite restaurant because of the best food I’ve ever had but the service is friendly and relatively quick. Absolutely recommend adding this to your list of places to try!“

“What a find! This is close to our doctor's office and a Trader Joe's, so we noticed it. Saw it's often busy. Checked it out today. Wonderful! In these times, very upscale for the price. Delicious well made food. Nice atmosphere and lovely staff. Shared a pepperoni pizza, arugula salad, and homemade donut bites for dessert. The pizza was perfect - crust, sauce, toppings - all quality. Nice dressing on the fresh arugula salad. Those Nutella donut bites - yummy. Wish there was a place this good at this price in our hometown. Have not found one yet.“

“Food and atmosphere was amazing.“

“First time at this restaurant and I was impressed. The food was plentiful and the staff were very friendly. I will definitely be dining there again.“

“Love so much about this place, the food is really good - the staff are so nice and friendly. They make you feel welcome. Love our Sunday brunches here.“

“The food is generally good. The hostesses are always the worst. First thing you see when you walk in everytime is people on their phones, not acknowledging you, not saying hi. Everytime. The BLT is the worst BLT I’ve ever had. The beer selection is great, although often out of selections (even month long specials). The bathrooms are often overflowing with trash. I also don’t think anyone likes those iPad things they try to promote every time I go there. Been here dozens of times.“

“Although the food and service were outstanding, the restaurant was very cold. The air conditioning was blasting making it uncomfortable. The noise level was so loud it was almost impossible to talk. Most of the restaurant walls are wood, but some of the walls such as the one we were next to were painted and were peeling and in dire need of a paint job. The sangria of the day was delicious, but was 75% ice so not worth the $15 for a couple of sips.“

“Great service, food and atmosphere! Sadie is top-notch and Chef Dan's kitchen does an amazing job.“

“The service and the food is amazing. I highly recommend it.“
