“Went out to dinner with the family. Amazing atmosphere, delicious food and Nate was a phenomenal server. He was very attentive and made sure we were happy throughout the whole time we were there. We will be back!!“

“Everything was amazing from start to finish. Worth the drive. ❤️“

“Just WOW! My family and I just moved to the area. We’ve tried a couple places in the area, but we are a large family and everyone has their own taste. I drove past Marc’s last week and wanted to try it. This was the BEST pizza I’ve had in a long time. And the FRIES (especially if you like them thin cut like myself). We came from the city where there were multiple pizza shops, but none compare to Marc’s Pizza and Subs. My family of 10 ALL loved it, so that’s saying something! I would’ve included a picture but we devoured it before I even thought of it!“

“The food is delicious however this is the 2nd time we’ve picked up an order and we paid for something we did not get ! Very frustrating that someone is not paying attention !“

“Great food and service“

“Was a great night out with family pleasant atmosphere“

“My husband took me to Cotton last night for my birthday. The owner was at the host stand and she was extremely friendly and welcoming. Our server scooter was an absolute sweetheart. She was just the right amount of attentive. Shrimp appetizer was so delicious and our steaks had so much flavor and were cooked to perfection(med-rare) cocktails were great too! Between the amazing meals we had an excellent service I cannot wait to come back here. Thank you so much for such a great birthday experience!“

“4 stars. We did take out. Price is a little steep but The food was fresh and the portions are pretty large - the heat was definitely there! I was honestly impressed with the Mac n cheese. I had a lot of flavor and the pasta still had some bite to it

Edit. We have circled back after the grand opening die down. I'm changing to 5 stars because I had the opportunity to go order & pick up our dinner and the staff is super friendly and helpful. The inside is very different and gives you lots to look at while you in dine or wait. The food stayed consistently delicious and fresh and the establishment is very clean.

Employees continue to be friendly and helpful and the food stays consistently good“

“Had a fantastic evening with very good friends.“

“Better than Vintage and Nadeaus! Tried a few subs now, the steak and cheese, chicken and cheese, and Meatball sub, and I can say they are a tad bit better for sure than anyone around the city. Only downside is they charge fees for online orders and Vintage/others don't. Get that for free option and I'll bump you up to 5 stars. Why charge a fee? Makes no sense. Fees turn me off and I look elsewhere.“

“The food and drinks were great and my server, Primrose, was so friendly!! I will definitely be back especially since there’s outdoor seating when it’s nice out.“

“Everything is absolutely delicious, fresh, and served piping hot! They were able to help my husband enjoy multiple dishes without any heat, as he is extremely sensitive. On the flip-side, whenever I ask for my dishes to be "extra extra spicy", they are never afraid to serve it up! Lots of fresh ingredients, the herbs and spices, and such fast service. We are so relaxed when we dined there tonight. The server gave us a nice little gift, which we were very touched by his kindness. We are definitely coming back to try other dishes, including more momos!!!“

“Great local place to grab a beer, burger, and run into friends“

“Starting coming here a couple months ago. Wait staff is top notch, friendly, and attentive! I have ordered different items each time. The food comes out delicious each time! Worth your time to stop and try it!!“

“We dined outside in a beautiful breeze under a Linden Tree flocked with pakasandra. The smkoed salmon hollandaise with spinach on a perfectly toasted English muffin was fabulous. The poached eggs were also done perfectly. Flowering rose bushes were exquisite around the driveway. Great brunch❗️“

“most delicious chicken in the entire world. halal. won best chicken from boys and girls club“

“Always good service and food“

“On my first visit, I found the perfect amount. As a side, perfectly fried French fries. Their newly renovated dining room is ready to be unveiled. I sat alone at the lunch bar for my first visit, and the owner, who has been there for 37 years, recognized it by talking to me. Many patrons seem to be regulars. Excellent indication!“

“Fun, friendly atmosphere and the food is always good“

“A traditional downtown restaurant, we go weekly for breakfast. Our servers are wonderful, and while the food is average most of the time, they sometimes have tasty specials. It's a great balance of atmosphere, menu variety, price, and service. Did I mention that the servers are wonderful?“

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience at the Bedford Village Inn. From start to finish, everything was perfect. The staff leading up to the big day were so kind, organized, and helpful, and the day-of team was just as incredible - attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure everything ran smoothly. The food was amazing, and the venue itself is truly a dream. Every corner of the property is filled with charm and character, creating the most romantic and memorable setting. We already can’t wait to come back for anniversaries at the Tavern - it will always hold such a special place in our hearts.“

“Best kept secret in Nashua, amazing food and the sweetest staff.“

“Came for Mother’s Day brunch and the food was awesome! Great staff and great food, thank you!“

“The Pine Street Eatery is an excellent choice for breakfast and lunch. I have never had dinner there nor have I been to the lounge. I am referring to the restaurant. The people are wonderful, the food is great and the prices are more than fair. Overall, a wonderful place for a meal.“

“Tried based off a recommendation from a friend. Glad we went. The food was great, nice limited menu so there is attention to detail with every plate. The outdoor seating(with heaters) was relaxing, lean back look up and enjoy a glimpse of the stars. And lastly the drinks were the cherry on top. I highly recommend giving The Hill a try whether it be in the next to weeks or when they reopen in the spring.“

“Chef mark’s food is impeccable and the bartender is beautiful inside and out.always a fantastic time! And where do you go and get 5 star meals on the house!? An absolute hidden gem!! I Love you Mark and Lisa all your hard work payed off!this place needed you both! And the drinks?omg best margaritas!!! You ask for excellent food and drinks and you shall receive!!the bar is classy quaint and is perfect for date nights or just to relax and exhale from a long day!! Highly recommended!!!“

“Don’t miss this one!! Saturday night will be amazing!!!“

“Always a lovely lunch, the ingredients are fresh and lots of options! My sandwich - the California Turkey Club - was enough for almost two meals 😋 the side of Brussels sprouts was delicious, with plenty of balsamic. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Beautiful decor , delicious small plate tapas and great crafted cocktails!!!“

“Aimee was great, We will be back!“

“Food is so good friendly staff like to always support the small places this is a awesome place I highly recommend it definitely be back“

“UPDATE: Food sucks. The service is always excellent. The beverages are great, but the food is not good anymore. This was always our go-to place with consistent, delicious food.
Not anymore, the quality is sub-par. Tom retired and the food has gone done the dumper. No flavor on the haddock, served at a cool temperature, rice undercooked. Baked potatoes are never cooked thru and served cool. The servers are always quick to apologize, as if they already know the outcome. We've been customers for more than 25 years, and unfortunately it just isnt the same anymore. Bring back the old successful, consistent T-bones.“

“Well, I had the best chicken Queso Dias, made by an amazing up and coming star Amy (on the name tag) and the burger and fries were cooked to perfection by a "short" order cook Kaityn a young woman who is "growing." and rising star. or should I say trying to reach for them. and her amazing young assistant Chris who is going to be a great sous chef one day. It is a college Dining Hall, but any one can go and eat there, they do not accept cash though so bring you card.“

“Don't take the stars as a total while I explain. The shop is difficult to find and doubles in its location, inside a building that looks like suites of big business and should I go in? Well, of course you should! Owner is very friendly and makes a great sandwich and very friendly. If you haven't stopped in yet, you should... then tell your friends

Parking: Plenty of spaces with remote workers“

“Great bar and even better Bartender, Frank! It's people like Frank that have people rebook at the Hotel attached by offering exceptional service and remembering customers! Would recommend and plan on returning! Cheers, that man deserves a raise!“

“🍝🥦 The food was great. I had chicken parmesan, and the man friend had a meatloaf dinner. 😋 However, the best part was the delightfully energetic and entertaining bartender. Cody, thank you for making our luncheon extremely fun. 😃😁“

“Thank goodness they reopened. It’s the only restaurant prior to going through security. If you’re picking up someone it is great to have a place to relax and enjoy a bite or a drink. The breakfast panini was delicious with tater tot type hash browns.“

“Great manager. We held a party for 30. Food was wonderful and the manager Paige provided great service.“

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

“I haven't been to TBones since highschool. Decided to return yesterday for an after sports lunch and it was all incredible. The strawberry shortcake martini was to die for. Service was quick too. Jen A was our server and I will request to be in her area again if possible. She was beyond kind and personable. Asian chicken tacos were spot on perfection, the crisp was exactly what I dream of when I hear crispy chicken. Whatever the sauce is they serve with them, I would love to take a gallon home for all my dipping needs. Kids meals were large healthy portions and my kids were excited they were served with a homemade delicious chocolate chip cookie. The prime rib both looked and smelled of melty deliciousness. 10/10 will return again, can't wait for their new building to open up!!!“

“Wow! The Puritan Backroom was out to impress yesterday. We chose to order from them for our daughter and son in laws “I Do BBQ”. So much food! So delicious! Everyone was very happy with everything. There was way more than expected! Thank you!“

“I’ve been meaning to get here for years and FINALLY did today! My husband had a NE Hazy IPA that was great! (forget what it’s called) He said his appetizer, cheese dip with tortilla chips, was very good. My garden salad with tri tip steak was so delicious! The salad veggies were fresh and balsamic vinegrette was tangy and tasty, the steak marinade was really yummy, and the steak was cooked as I requested. Met the owner and chatted with him for a bit. A great addition to the downtown Nashua scene!“

“Stopped in as I was in the Hudson area. Staff were great and very friendly. Food cane out very fast and was hot and delicious. I will definitely stop in again when in Hudson“

“I organized a football team event for 50 held at the Boneyard (their function place), and everything could not have been more perfect. We upgraded to include the ribs which was such a good idea. The reports from the team were all positive, it blew away the Italian meal from the prior year. There was plenty of leftover food which the athletes were so excited to take home. 5 stars. Highly recommend!“

“the fish tacos were good.Friendly service.“

“My boyfriend and i ordered dinner through GrubHub from the Pint Publik House. The meal was delivered still piping hot. Each dish was fantastic. The chicken tenders were juicy and very flavorful. My boyfriend loved the curried goat! Highly recommend this dish. Very tender and full of flavor. We also ordered jerk pork and if we closed our eyes you would have sworn we were actually in Jamaica. All the sides were really good from the ceasar salad, rice and peas to the sweet potato fries. The restaurant manager took the time to call us and let us know that the food container tops might be loose. He went above and beyond to make sure we were aware as we opened the containers. We look forward to ordering again!“

“I would like to thank the staff at Queen City Cupcakes for the best experience ever. They are so friendly. From start to finish the experience was top notch. We chose the 3dz cupcakes, of which we had three flavors with 3 different icings. The cupcakes were so moist. The designs were exactly how we thought in our minds.“

“I'll know to call ahead next time. The food was excellent and the waiter was very attentive. I appreciated how he made eye contact with my kids and treated them with the same respect as any adult as they placed their orders. It is those little things that help kids learn how to interact confidently with others.“
