If you have not gone to The Cottage, located in Wellesley, you are missing out. I've been there several time and the food is always fabulous. I highly recommend you try this place. You will not be disappointed.
Our waiter provided excellent service and we really enjoyed the meal. One of our go to spots any time we go there we have a great time
Our waitress was outstanding, and the food was excellent. The noise level was a bit loud but overall, a great place to dine.
We visit several times a year and always enjoy our experience. In general staff are pleasant and helpful and one person in our group asked for cocktail sauce which they don't have but they quickly made up some . Reservations are a must. We were seated in an overflow room for a 1 pm lunch reservation but it worked out fine because it was quieter than the main room which is very loud. Menu is not huge but might be a problem if you are looking for for a steak or something very different.
Food was very good and wait staff was attentive. Pleasant atmosphere, excellent service and delicious food.
I've been to The Cottage many times, and I've always been happy with the food there. However, last night I left miserably disappointed. I ordered the calamari starter, which I've had in the past and loved. I can't put my finger on it, but last night it was not good and I didn't eat it. I also ordered the lime grilled shrimp special and the shrimp was so tough that I couldn't even eat one comfortably. So, consequently, I didn't eat that dish either. My husband liked it, however, so he ate it. Lastly, for dessert we ordered the lemon creme brule and it was delicious. Needles to say, that was gone in a NY minute! However, we weren't asked if we wanted coffee - which we would have had if it was offered. Our server was excellent. She was attentive and checked on us often. It seems that The Cottage is getting skimpy with the amount of bread they give. We weren't asked if we wanted more (which we did) and the little bread they gave us was barely enough for four people to share. I wish they hadn't taken the veggie burger off the menu. That was my go-to and was always delicious. Since the food was subpar last night and the veggie burger is off the menu, it will probably be a while before I go back.
Unfortunately, The Cottage doesn't list all ingredients on the menu. I ordered the lobster tacos which listed lots of ingredients. When it arrived, I took a bite and it was filled with cilantro. An herb like that has visceral responses from a lot of people. It should be listed as an ingredient.
Terrific waitress. Food and drinks very good. Not overpriced. We meet friends there often.
Excellent dinners including halibut special. Cool and comfortable inside on a hot night. supberg Maine Beerco draft IPA. Would defiinitely recommend and return soon.
We like to come here for brunch on Sunday. The food is always prepared perfectly, from the omelets to brioche french toast with berries; always fresh, hot and delivered with a smile. Attentive servers and runners. Never disappoins is why we keep coming back..

Always a great place to go on a Saturday night. A liite quieter this time of year when everyone else is on the Cape. Service is always prompt and friendly and they describe the drinks and specials in detail. Great wine list. Awesome desserts, big enough to sahre.
Great server! Lobster sliders were exceptional and the eggplant fries were yummy as aleays! We will be back soon
We absolutely love the Cottage and consider it easily the best casual dining experience in the area. Great ambiance and terrific, innivative menu. Best of all, the staff is always friendly and attentive.
We went for Father's Day brunch. The French toast and pancakes were delicious. My daughter and I split the home fries. They were a bit spicy and tasty too! A nice treat for Fathers Day.
Had an early dinner with family. Service was excellent as was the food. Always have a great meal when we are here.
