   We went for a post-graduation dinner and it was perfect! Food, ambience and service was excellent! Valet parking was a bonus!

   We went to Lock 50 to celebrate Mother's Day. Our cocktails and small plates were excellent. The only issue was that the food was a little slow to come out of the kitchen (which was understandable, given the crowd) & was delivered nearly simultaneously. However, the service was excellent & the food (and cocktails) were delicious! We've been before and will definitely be back!

   The chef's tasting menu and the wine pairings were amazing, and cocktails were also very good and perfectly balanced! The service was outstanding - Matt (our waiter) and Patrick (the sommelier) were both very attentive and proactive and had taken an excellent care of us all night, despite the graduation party going on at the same time! The outdoor space is also very nice and cozy, and best of all we could enjoy the company of our furry friend! Special thanks to Ed (the owner) who stopped by and said hello - that was a really nice touch and we appreciate it. Will definitely be back the next time we're in the area!

   Failed to mention that there was a fixed Mother’s Day menu that was $45 per person, waited 20 minutes to even get water. Food was very good but too adventurous for all parties.

   Had reservations and were seated immediately. Front dining room was loud. Our server Cheryl was attentive, professional and pleasant. Made the dining experience even more enjoyable! She recommended ordering 3-4 small plates to share and we loved the beef, octopus, pork belly, and scallops. Everything was delicious! We will definitely be back!

   we waited 30 minutes to order even a drink, our waiter completely forgot about us! he later said that there was a large party that delayed everything but he served others around us. The hostess did not notice..it seems that she should be aware of who is waiting and why. The small plates were good, especially the parsnip soup. The spring salad with the scallops had snow peas that were not topped, tailed or strung..it seems that they should have been sliced snow peas instead. The Cabernet was excellent!

    We are not from the area, but had traveled to Worcester to meet friends who were in town for an event as they grew up there. First the good. The food was delicious! We have charcuterie & cheese as an app. It was tasty. 3 of us had steaks and each one had a different one from the menu. All very, very good. The other person had Bouillabaisse, which he raved about. Now for the not so great. We met at the bar and we were the only people there. The bartender was doing service and customers at the bar, but again it was not busy. I sat for about 10 minutes before he even acknowledged us. Then it was one drink and no follow up. The server was super friendly, but added nothing to the experience. She seemed like she didn't want to be there. She never cleared the appetizer plates or glasses until we piled them at the end of the table. Our food came and the hostess/manager (not sure) didn't really seem to know which steaks were which, but we figured it out. Didn't really ask if we wanted anything else. Drinks sat empty, but we were towards the end of the meal. We were going to have dessert and another cocktail, but decided to go elsewhere for that.

    Food was fantastic, outdoor seating was a lovely space and the waitstaff were very courteous and friendly. It did take quite a long time to get our food so our meal took considerably longer than expected (2 hours) and we were slightly late for a show we were attending, as a result. Overall we did enjoy the experience and would definitely go back.

    From the greeting staff, valet, servers and all the staff were energetic and attentive. The food was great but the truffles on the carpaccio had no flavor which is why I knocked a star. The Albanian Fergese and our charcuterie where top notch I would very much recommend the Fergese.

    The food here is consistently excellent. The igloos outside are really nice. Was great to sit out even though it is a bit cold still. Service wasn't great, but it was probably a new/inexperienced server and we were not in a hurry so that was ok. The menu is small, but the offerings are very interesting. I find that the Small Plates are enough if you are not super-hungry when you arrive.

    We enjoyed our food but the service was super slow and inattentive. Maybe there was something going on in the kitchen — server said they lost the ticket. He was very apologetic but he didn’t really notice that we’d been waiting too long until we asked about our apps. Definite potential. It’s not a no, but a miss on service at least tonight.

    Great Ambiance. Servers were great. If I loved wine, I'd probably be more into the vibe, but still positive. For date or professional dinner, this is the ideal ambiance. Food was mediocre at best, prices were high (especially compared to quality). Armsby and deadhorse have similar pricing and ambiance, but they deliver on food quality.

    My wife and I love this place. It is one of our go to places and we keep going back. We got engaged in this restaurant some time ago, and the owner Ed still remembers us. We celebrated our 5 year anniversary last night and as a gift to us, we received two glasses of orange wine with our citrus tart dessert as part of the 5 course chef tasting menu ... which is ALWAYS terrific. And Cheryl our server was wonderful. Thank you for a night to remember!!

    I thought the food was tasty, not outstanding. Sometimes the flavoring overwhelmed the food. Although the waiter was kind, he seemed to look up when talking with us, little eye contact and his voice was very soft, making it hard to hear. I had to ask several times for him to repeat what he was saying.

    Service was very slow even though it wasn’t full when we arrived at 6:30. Server was training which is fine but I was annoyed knowing the trainee was learning bad service! The food (3 appetizers took over an hour to arrive. No other food was brought or offered as a concession (hello, bread?), and nothing was comped on the bill as an offering . I had to get up from the table to find the manager and tell her to please move along our order- it still took 15 min after that. Food was superb but we couldn’t enjoy it in a rush or with feeling so frustrated. A fine dining establishment should know better!

    We decided to try Lock 50 without much research and we weren't disappointed. We started with the charcuterie board which had prosciutto and some form of ham, cheese, figs nuts and a rustic bread. For mains, my wife had the brisket flatbread ( a special). I had the half chicken done Greek style with roasted potatoes, whipped Feta, olives and tomato. Both were exceptionally good. I was surprised to see reviews that said there was an issue with service. Our service was excellent! We sat in front that was a little loud. We will go back and try the back dining area next time.

    The food was good but came out cold. The place was fairly empty as it was lunch so no excuse for cold food. The meal I ordered was supposed to come with tri colored carrots and did not and no explanation or reason provide as to why there was a deviation from the menu. I am on a struck diet and the change was disappointing. The waiter was slow and inattentive. More interested in chatting with the hostess than tending to guests. Was not happy at all.

    It was our 5 yr wedding anniversary. We both had the 5 course chef's meal, one with wine paring. While the food was excellent, it took 3.5 hours to complete! The wait staff tried to cover saying it was because their was a big table ordering small plates. But we arrived at 7 pm and didn't get out until 10:30 pm. We didn't ding the staff, but it was disappointing they kept asking me if I wanted to order another $12 drink. I had 3 just to cover the 3.5 hours. We supported during COVID and are still fans, but this trips was as slight disappointment.

    Had a delicious lunch there. Only the dinner menu was available. Perhaps because they are only open for lunch for weekend days. The food was as usual top notch. What they call small plates, are really not small. We enjoyed our seared scallops, and the salmon entree. The standout was the kale caesar salad. Best way to eat kale ever, and a portion large enough to share.
