    Even on a busy weekend night, service and food was fantastic. Good GF, lactose-sensitive and vegetarian options could be made excellent with the addition of GF flatbread crusts and dairy-free cheese. Awesome beer and and cocktail menu as well!

    Went for brunch on fathers say, wasn’t too busy in the morning. Took 40min to get food. Pancakes were hard as a rock on top, 1 out of 3 edible for my 8yo daughter (ordered from regular menu not kids so was still $13). Eggs ordered over easy were fried, no runny yolk. Omelette ordered was burnt (could see black on the eggs) with minimal cheese. Toast served cold and dry, asked for butter but it didn’t melt since it was cold. Only meal ok was my dads (thank goodness) French toast. Would not recommend brunch. Service-just ok. Never cleared a single plate at the end and we all had multiple-regular plates plus bowls for fruit. Had to stack myself to sign the check.

    We did not expect a buffet style brunch. This was not specified on the website. The buffet was fine but there was no goat cheese available for the omelets which was something we were really looking forward to.

    Disappointed. Four friends out for dinner, three plates had issues with menu selection and presentation and flavor. 3 shrimps does not make a shrimp scampi, no flavor to sauce. Wanted to charge more for a few extra shrimp. Salmon dinner with rice had 1 piece of garnish considered the vegetable, really? Chef and Management need to pay more attention to plates coming out of the Kitchen. Call Gordon Ramsey for advise. Comping the dish does not make the customer experience okay. Disappointed.

    The food was good but came too quickly. My friend ordered a salad with her pasta meal and they came out together. She ended up taking it to go. I did have a good shepards pie that was a mix of sirloin beef and lamb. They had an extremely large drink menu if that appeals to you.

    Good service and ambiance, nice beer and wine selection, delicious beet salad, and the braised beef ribs dish was delicious also but more like a boneless pot roast since there were no ribs. Despite that, I would definitely order it again.

    First time here, thought we would give it a chance and thank goodness we did. Fantastic atmosphere, open space and biggest bar area around. TVs with games on for the sports fanatics. We were table of 4, everyone’s food was fresh and super tasty. We had the cheeseburgers burger, tacos, ahi tuna salad and the salmon. Cocktails were spot on as well as perfectly temperature beer. Dawn our waitress was exceptional. Little gem of Northborough. We will return!!

    First time eating there. We had a reservation and sat right down without a wait on a Saturday night.. the waitress was pleasant and we liked the menu. We both had salads that were nice and fresh. The Crème Brûlée was great. My only complaint was that my steak tips weren’t cooked enough, but they were flavorful .
