Reviews on Mediterranean food in Newton, Massachusetts, United States. Newton is a suburban city in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, United States. It is approximately 7 miles (11 km) west of downtown Boston and is bordered by Boston's Brighton and West Roxbury neighborhoods to the east and south, respectively, and by the suburb of Brookline to the east, the suburbs of Watertown and Waltham to the north, and Wellesley and Needham to the west.

Putterham Grille

"New neighborhood restaurant, very nice fresh food, reasonably priced, attentive service".

Reviewed By Bigamus

The Putterham Grille offers a slight variation on typical Mediterranean foods. The chicken Gyro was extremely fresh - nice moist chunks of grilled chicken served on a warm pita with a homemade tzatziki sauce (see picture). My business partner had the Eggplant Parmesan sandwich, which was quite large and (according to him) quite tasty. The menu has a nice variety to it - hamburgers, clubs and other sandwiches are there for those who are less inclined to experiment. Overall, a nice experience.

Jakes Falafel Corner is simply fabulous, the food is flavorful, fresh and has been consistently excellent.Don't forget to try his Kabob's or a vegetarian dish.Be sure to include a side of Pita and hummus and the Garlic Sauce or Hot Sauce is out of this world.

It is a beautiful restaurant in a very cool part of town. Normally we love tapas but they dropped the ball. The flavors overall were good but the service was terrible. They were extremely slow and haphazardly brought out our dishes. I wouldn’t recommend.

Inna's Kitchen

Reviewed By sej60

I had been wanting to dine here for months because of very favorable reviews and an outstanding menu. Unfortunately, they close at 2 or 3 PM most days, and I do not go out for brunch very often. We went recently on a Sunday around noon for a mini birthday celebration for brunch and ordered a variety of breakfast and lunch items. They have 4 tables for 2 and one table for 5 or 6. We were a party of 3, so fortunately we had the large table. The food items were well prepared, but were brought to the table piecemeal rather than together. I really enjoyed what we ate, but was not overwhelmed. My issues: 1. When you pay with a credit card following the order, you are allowed to tip with 15%, 20%, etc., and not allowed to put in a specific amount, even 10%. 2. I had to use the restroom but there was a prominent sign that said that they did not have a restroom. Consequently, I had to go across the street to Panera's to use their restroom. 3. Limited seating. Before we left, we purchased several of their prepared soups and other items.

Very good Italian food in Watertown square. We walked in without a reservation on a Saturday at 7:30 pm and had no problem getting a table. Food is very good. Service was quick and professional. Ample parking in the rear (free after 6 pm). There’s a patio in the back for al fresco dining when the weather warms. Bathroom is really small.

But I may not be in Greece yet I don’t have to miss the food. Farm Grill provides the tastes of Greece without the 10 hour flight time. The food is excellent in it’s preparation and presentation. I highly recommend this restaurant for sit down or carry out. Don’t expect ambiance but do expect good food.

Barcelona Wine Bar

Reviewed By Stephen C

We sat at an outside table, as the inside of the restaurant seemed like it could get a little noisy. The service was excellent from everybody, including the person at the reservations desk. The restaurant has a large selection of wine and cocktails, and the prices were not crazy. There were many excellent tapas dishes. There were four of us, and we ordered at least 10 different dishes. The dishes were served almost immediately, and every one of them was outstanding. I would definitely go back to the Barcelona Wine Bar. One of the friends with me, who is a foodie and bartender who frequently dines out, said it was the best restaurant experience he has had in a long time. Great job, everybody at the Barcelona Wine Bar. I will definitely return.
