It is comfortable and enjoyable every time from a quick stop in for a drink and appetizer to a larger group for dinner and drinks! The farm to table menu plus excellent beverages is well worth exploring!“

“Wish I had discovered this restaurant a year ago when i first came to Derry, I'm going to miss it when I go.“

“Went to Fody’s for dinner on a Monday night. Downstairs was closed for a private event. We went up to the bar. You seat yourself. Waitress who seemed like she was also tending bar came over promptly. She was friendly and took our drink orders. Sangria was very good. It was made well, not just wine with a piece of fruit.

Chicken tenders with sweet chili were delicious, we wish there were more. Cheese pizza cooked perfectly with good cheese but sauce needed a bit more flavor. Overall a decent pie. Nashua hot chicken sandwich was tasty only critique is to use a grilled bun instead of bread. It needed a bit more bulky bread to hold it together.

Prices are decent. Place is older but clean. It was comfortable and welcoming. We will be back to try other dishes.“

“my favorite place in the whole wide world. If any one asks for a manch rec I only tell them here. This is the only place you should go. Best food, drinks and SERVICE ever.“

“Great expanse at the Rambling house! Food and drinks, were great. We were able to spend a beautiful afternoon on the outside terrace overlooking the river. Our waiter Andrew was great always very attentive, polite. Andrew spent some time with us talking about the origins of the restaurant, wonderful September afternoon. Thank you, Andrew.“

“Hands down favorite bar in Nashua! Bartenders are the best, and the food is delicious!“

“We moved to NH from Philadelphia 15 years ago. Philly is a great town for food (that’s probably the only thing it’s great for) and while we love most things about NH, the choices for dinning out are definitely not one of those things. Cotton breaks that mold and would stand up to the best of what Philly has to offer. Food, service, and drinks were all top notch!“

“Piccolo Restaurant on Elm st Manchester Nh - the absolute BEST place for Italian! Lunch or dinner ! We’ve been for both!“

“Not your ordinary food or beverage place. Stash Box was Outstanding! I like to get food choices that I could not make at home and this place definitely delivered. The cocktails were delicious and made with precision and freshness. The food was so tasty. We shared the pork belly Rangoon and dinner bread appetizers. It was the special touches added, like house made pickles and pimento spread and some wicked tasty chutney that made our taste buds explode. I had the falafel entree with broccolini (roasted to perfection) and super tasty. My husband had the pesto risotto, which was a special surprise. Of most importance, all the staff were attentive and friendly. I cannot recommend Stash Box more highly!“

“Food was great and the staff was so friendly!!! We had Natasha as a server and she was amazing. If I wasn’t traveling from Florida I’d be back for sure. Thanks again yall!“

“We have come to Villaggio three times within the last six months. This place is excellent and we will be returning again and again. The service the food and the atmosphere everything is five stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Everything from the food to service was outstanding. The noise level in the bar was overwhelming, couldn't even hear the hostess when we were checking in. Once we were seated in the dinning room the noise level was fine. Overall a great experience.“

“Emy and I enjoyed an early dinner at Casey Magee's today. The staff were attentive and helpful, the atmosphere was great, and the food was superb. We both had their signature dish, fish and chips, and enjoyed it tremendously. It took us back to our times in London, eating takeout from the chip shop on the corner. We'll be back!“

“great food and excellent beer selection!“

“Incredible. Attended for a birthday party and about 40 people were there. The entire waitstaff were amazing. I simply cannot overstate how good everything was. I am blown away. I had 3 different drinks while there. All were inspired and expertly crafted. The food was divine. To die for. The bread and oil may just be the best I have ever tasted. I had the charcuterie board and it was so well-balanced and fresh. The interior of the place was amazing. Immaculately decorated and the walls even sparkle. The waitstaff all were dressed right out of a magazine, knowledgeable, fast, and helpful.

I absolutely cannot wait to go back and this, right now, is my pick for best place to go out in Manchester. I live in Nashua but if I was closer, I would be here all the time.

“30th birthday dinner celebration for my son and his family. Our waiter was so friendly and warm and attentive. Food and drinks were amazing. We had a 5 pm reservation because we had 2 children. Interior is cozy and lovely. They do have high chairs and changing stations in the bathrooms. Very accommodating staff and we will be back!“

“Super delish! We got takeout- a bit pricey but wonderful food! Got lots but highly recommend the Short rib bao buns and the Crab Rangoon eggroll (just comes with two though!)“

“My Husband and I have been wanting to try this resturaunt since they opened. We Yesterday about 1.5 hr after they opened. It was not busy but the waiter and waitress was great and the service was timely.

Our food was wonderful! It came out fresh and hot. We ordered a margarita flight, peach, mango, strawberry, and tamarind which all were delicious and the flight is certainly affordable!

We will be visiting again. ❤️🥰“

Great to have a fun, relaxing, dinner listening to a selection of the best of the 70’s, 80’s,90’s, to current .“

“Dinner was fresh and delicious!“

“I had a wonderful experience with Friendly Reds. We had them cater our daughter’s birthday and deliver the food. Food was delicious as always- food was delivered hot and they allowed us to use their hot boxes to keep extra food hot as well. We had one little mess up with the sternos when they set up the food (they forgot the water trays) so this caused our first tray to be burnt. When we realized it and called them they offered to come right down and fix this and even refunded all of those trays. The customer service was wonderful and they were very responsive. Delivery was on time with friendly staff. Ordering catering was very simple and easy. Payment was easy (and prices were very reasonable!). This was our second event we used friendly reds for and we plan to continue to use them for catering!“

“Had a fantastic birthday celebration for a family member at Dreo! We had an amazing night from the moment we walked in the door to finishing desert. Lisa, our server greeted us promptly, and reviewed the drink and dinner specials with us. The drinks were amazing and we ordered the charcuterie plate for the table. So good! Everyone loved their meals, especially the shrimp linguini dinner special. Everything was cooked perfect. Desert was great including a decadent chocolate cake for the birthday celebration. Service by Lisa was impeccable and we can't wait to go back!“

“Amazing pizza from their wood-fired oven. Great drinks!! Highly recommend!“

“Food is excellent and good value for price. That’s important these days. Excellent waitress“

“Stopped in here with my family for lunch. The food was great and the service was very nice and quick. I would highly recommend if you are ever in the Nashua area!“

“Was very pleased with the wait staff and management. They went out of their way to accommodate us after small complication. That is a rare occurrence in today's restaurants.“
