We were excited to try Civic for its focus on being farm to table. We were surprised to learn that it is the clubhouse restaurant at a local golf course. This didn't dissuade us, but we aren't accustomed to eating out on the links.The atmosphere is clean if a bit spartan. Located in an old house, the walls have been rearranged to create large openings, but the tables in the dining room are split up and you can tell that there were multiple first floor rooms in this old home. The walls are decorated with antique photos from Westborough, which create a local interest. The floors are hardwoord and there are austere blinds on the windows. Thus, the dining room is a bit noisy as the sound ricochets off the hard surfaces. Needless to say, we could hear each other fine but we want to note it for those who may be sensitive to this.The cocktail program was intriguing. They covered their bases on all spirits, but bourbon and gin drinkers had multiple options. The wine list was adequate but a bit limited on options by the glass. They have multiple craft beers offered.The menu is diverse and they highlight their sources, which include multiple local farms for both meat as well as vegetables. We love this about them.The smoked gouda mac and cheese was a nice twist on the original. The arancini had a nice, fall spiciness to them. The scallops were perfectly seasoned and cooked. The spaetzel underneath was adorned with fresh winter vegetables and felt very light and healthy, even though it is winter. There was a buttery vinaigrette on it, however, the flavor was so delicate it was not noticeable. The tacos were tasty and the meatballs were well made. We ordered a side of truffle mashed potatoes and were a little disappointed -- the potatoes were fine, however the truffle flavor was so light and mild, it was barely detectable. The desserts were delicious; we ordered a blondie with ice cream and a blood orange cheesecake. The blondie was brought in from a local bakery, another local detail we feel compelled to mention in a positive way. We will return to Civic, as we enjoyed ourselves, the food, and the atmosphere. There are multiple menu items intriguing us, however the teens didn't enjoy it as much. They felt limited with the menu and we will probably return as a couple to enjoy the bar area or outdoor seating on our second visit.

Really have to look for this place not really well known or signed.located on the Holliston golf course also the club house.Tried it last Friday night and was pleasantly surprised.Not a lot of atmosphere, well lit. Fairly large menu selection with good diversity. Service was quite good with quick delivery of ordered items. Had a fish sandwich that was a real generous piece of haddock. Really nice fries, wife had a black and blue burger. home made beef patty with crumbled blue cheese.Started out with a fried calamari app that was very good accompanied with hot peppers. A really good Sangria. Menu had several good looking salads and sandwiches with many full dinner choices.Was very happy with everything including the prices.Anthony's is open seasonally during the golfing season.Have attended function here and can accommodate a fairly large group. open for lunch and dinner till 9PM. I would recommend to try this hidden gem.

Lively neighborhood sports bar. Had the Pistol Pete Smoke Stack Burger. It was piled high with topped high with bacon cheddar and onion strings. Had some many onion strings, there is no reason to order a side...But their onion rings looked awesome.

Our hotel shuttle brought us out for some dinner and adult beverages. This place really hit the spot. The beers and food were really good and really hit the spot. The atmosphere, even on a Tuesday night, was great. I left completely stuffed! I'd like to go back and try some more of their beers and different menu items.

Now that I have your attention. This was a fabulous breakfast! My friend had the Tavern breakfast special and I had the egg sandwich on a Portuguese muffin. Farm fresh eggs since we are close to all the local farms and as I said they make their own sweet sausage patties. The home fries had a wonderful Old Bay style seasoning and of course we had breakfast cocktails. I was so full but determined I was not leaving anything on the plate. The owner is a former catering chef in Boston and knows how to cook food right! Excellent meal and I will definitely return to try lunch and sit on the patio

Awesome place to go out with family or friends or even take clients. I would take out of towners here all the time as it offers the best ambiance and food anywhere west of Boston. I have even taken a ghost hunter tour here at one time to learn more about the place.

The burgers and chicken burgers are great here. They always have a wonderful selection of brews and wines (it's right next to a really nice wine/brew shop).The main waitress there is super sweet and always gives great service.There's an italian restaurant right next to this one and Bison Burger's bar is just as nice and usually not as packed. Great spot to watch a game too!

There is a reason that TJ's parking lot is full all-day, everyday: it features great American "comfort food" with generous portions. Simply put, the restaurant is an excellent value. For example, if you enjoy dishes like "Macaroni and cheese with buffalo chicken" that you can barely finish, you'll be very pleased. If you are looking for "Ahi Poke in Rice Cornets with Mango Caviar and Lemongrass-Meyer Lemon Bubbles," TJ's is not for you. The restaurant also has a great neighborhood feel. Families will feel right at home, but be forewarned that TJ's turns into somewhat of a rowdy bar scene (by suburban standards) at night.

We love coming here. Excellent food and libation and nice people. Tonight a flatbread with pesto and the Scallops entree... served with potatoes, the burger, salad with strawberry dressing, pasta special (carbonara). Excellent wine by the glass and craft beer. Friendly, attentive service. A great spot.
