Reviewed By Paul B - Boston, Massachusetts
I brought my Dad and we split a burnt end platter with coleslaw and baked beans. Plenty of food for 2 in one platter order. Actually more then enough! Staff is very friendly and food comes quickly. The BBQ is excellent. Just the right amount of smoke and sauce. Baked beans were very good and we enjoyed the tangy coleslaw. We sat inside and enjoyed our meal. Overall a very nice experience and they get the excellent rating from the quality of food. Great job.

I have Celiac disease. The waiter provided me with a gluten free menu! I could still get most everything on the menu with some modifications. The Potato Falafel was amazing. I also had the steak tartare. My friends are vegetarian and there were great options for them as well! Great to go here with friends, family, or on a date!

Stopped in here for lunch on a cold, blustery day with my brother and nephew. We had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. The place was busy, but turnover is quick. My brother and I had sandwiches-a Reuben and a BLT. My nephew...MoreI'm happy you enjoyed your lunch with your brother and nephew! It's wonderful to hear you were seated promptly and that you enjoyed your meal. Looking forward to having you all back again soon to try out some more items on our menu! -Mike, Owner
6. Dom's Sausage Co. Inc
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 47 reviews
"Great Taste Since 1941" Whether beef or poultry, every offering (there's a wide array) is a hit. Every one! The prepared food (subs, sandwiches, etc.) is also excellent and the deli offers a solid variety of quality cuts.

After enjoying doms steak tips for years in Boston we continued to but in bulk and bring to Florida. Standard response from non Bostonians was whats that? Every person who has tried them loves them and want to know when can they have them again.
We now use their marenade and steak that the staff told us to buy and everyone lives it again.
Thanx for the help all were great
7. Giulia

Reviewed By Mike S - Boston, Massachusetts
Guilia is quite a find - as hard as it is to secure a reservation. The food is very fresh and local, the service outstanding and smart, the interior intimate and the atmosphere relaxed and modest even as the restaurant is packed as usual. Highly recommended - if you can get in.
8. Tenoch Mexican

Reviewed By sam t - Medford, Massachusetts
This spot has been a hit with the local ever since it opened and has quickly spawned other brick and mortar spots elsewhere in the greater boston area.
I really liked the place initially - fast service, interesting tortas and burritos, but lately some of the food was just overly salty.
9. Dali Restaurant & Tapas Bar
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 341 reviews
Reviewed By MeqonTraveler - Mequon, WI
I have been to Dali twice this fall. Both times were similar. Excellent food, good wine list. The service is good once it gets going (both times there was a significant delay before someone stopped by the table). Pretty reasonably priced. The decor is great. It's a bit noisy, but not too bad.
10. Oleana

Reviewed By LRFoodFan - Little Rock, Arkansas
We really enjoyed the innovative riffs on traditional Turkish dishes. All the ingredients that you would expect were there: tahini, chickpeas, pine nuts, yogurt, lamb, feta. But they were put together in unexpected ways that made every bite interesting. We ordered 4 dishes for the two of us and shared everything. Others might order more, but that was enough for us. Kitchen paced everything nicely so that we had a leisurely meal. We ended up going the their sister bakery Sofra for breakfast the next morning, just to have another chance to try new tastes.
