“Appreciated the new GM coming to speak with us. The server was very attentive without being intrusive. The menu has lots of tempting dishes And I chose the duck noodle - it was very tasty but unfortunately the duck was overcooked for my taste. My dining companions chose the eggplant parmigiana (very good but not legendary) and the scallops ((cooked to perfection)”

“I drive by this place so often I figured I would take a chance and try it out always a supporter of small local business. We got the steak tip sub and let me say that the bread was the freshest I have ever had for a sub from any place, we got the Chrissy's pizza and we also got the Nunzio pizza. It was all so fresh still piping hot when we brought it home. The service was amazing! 10 out of 10! our new spot!”

“I had lunch with friends here yesterday and everything was great but I have to mention that our server, Russell, was hands done, one of the best servers I have ever had. He gave us plenty of time to catch up with each other with cocktails (about an hour!), He paid for a round of drinks because we wanted to order from the brunch menu but missed it because we talked for so long. He said it was his fault for not reminding us! Unheard of! He let us have a leisurely 3 hour lunch, with no pressure at all, and was very attentive when we needed him. He even sent over a delicious birthday dessert without even being asked! Russell is The Best!!”

“With my love for spicy fried chicken, when I discovered this place, I made it a point to stop by next time I was in the area. Fans will know about my adventures and misadventures with spicy food. Can we just have nutrition labels list Scoville units in addition to the usual macros and micros? Not wanting to turn into a fire-breathing dragon or the big bad wolf, huffing and puffing through my meal, I went for a Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. While not the greatest fried chicken I'd had (that title stays with Dave's), I've no complaints about the chicken itself. It was cooked nicely, and appropriately crisp and tender. The chow-chow (pickled vegetable relish) was a unique touch, and the lettuce added some welcome freshness. The bayou sauce was pleasant, also. I found everything to be mostly well-balanced, though I personally would have loved a little more lettuce. There's just one 'little' detail: the heat. If there was any spiciness, it was fully imperceptible to my palate. So much so I confirmed with the kitchen it was, in fact, a Nashville hot. Not wanting to be "that guy" I didn't send it back - but 100% going for at least an "Angry Bird" next time. For some final notes: - Value was excellent at ~$12 for a rather large sandwich. - Fries were fine, no complaints and nothing to write home about. - Service was polite and reasonably quick. - Location was clean, and only the paint needed a little touch up. Thus: while not the GOAT in my opinion, a very solid and respectable chicken shop!”

Prosciutto Pizza

“G offers fine dining in a casual setting. Our cocktails were first rate-I especially recommend the Smoky Punch, a Mexcal-based drink. Our food was excellent too: We shared the arincini and the beet salad, and had the eggplant entree. The chocolate soufflé dessert was a fine way to end our meal. Service was friendly and attentive too.”

Kell's Kreme 168 Humphrey St # A, Swampscott Ice Cream Shop • $

“Confusing service experience because they were super nice about letting me sample flavors. I finally chose blueberry pie, kiddie size, which is huge! But I asked for a topping, paid for it, and then told me "we ran out of it, have a nice day". As in - "thanks for paying already, we won't offer you an alternative". Weird? Either way, the ice cream was good and it was lovely to walk over to the seaside and enjoy it.”
