“This is absolutely my favorite location. The manager goes above and beyond every visit to make sure everything is perfect and up to the highest standards. The food is phenomenal—you truly can’t get a bad meal here. The cleanliness of the restaurant is immaculate, from the kitchen to the dining area.

They took extra special care of my kids and made sure my husband’s and my birthday celebration with our friends was memorable. The manager Matt even went out of his way to decorate our table before we arrived, which was such a thoughtful touch. Our waiter was amazing as well. Overall, this is definitely my go-to place!“

“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!“

“The menu here is fantastic! We started with apps: the charcuterie “Parlay Board”, and perfectly cooked mussels in garlic/wine sauce, and the street corn dip with chips — all were outstanding. My favorite dish was the poached lobster & chicharrones tacos (unique and delicious!). Our table also ordered the rigatoni bolognese and the chicken cutlet parm — both perfectly prepared and full of flavor.

From food to service to atmosphere, everything was spot-on. Everyone in our party left happy, and we can’t wait to come back!“

“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!“

“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.“
