位於Winchester​的優質撫慰心靈的食物​餐廳

Went there for the first time last night on Valentine’s Day. This is one of the new restaurants that has opened up in the alewife area now that there’s a lot of housing. They have nice friendly staff, but the service is a bit slow because they seemed understaffed with waiters. They have a bar shuffleboard table that’s kinda nice. Wasn’t crazy about the cocktail choices. Place seems to mostly cater to youger couples and our families with kids who live in the area. Food is average in my opinion, but not overpriced as the most expensive entrée is $31 and most are in the mid 20s. Also if you’re vegan or vegetarian, there aregood options here. The empanadas were very tasty. The dumplings are really thick on the dough and chewy  and then my wife, and I agreed that the vegetarian filling was a bit dry so you really needed to have with the spicy dipping sauce. The Bolognese was massively overcooked, and while the flavor of the sauce was good the pasta was an absolute mush. That dish was the biggest disappointment for me. The shaved brussels sprouts salad was quite tasty though with halloumi. I probably won’t go back as it’s not my scene and I prefer a higher level of dining. 

The staff was exceptionally attentive and thoughtful!

Phish and chips was fresh and fried well. I wish there was more seasoning in the fish but it was still satisfying. The Loaded Poutine Fries had flavorful short rib gravy. The Short Rib Sandwich was the winner! The meat was extremely flavorful and cooked well and the dipping gravy elevated it to another level! Unfortunately, the Mac and Cheese was a disappointment - the translucent cheese sauce lacked cheese flavor. This was quite regrettable considering the quality of our overall food experience. The environment was very comfortable and pleasant. It had creative pieces such as a chandelier made out of trumpets, lighting that looked like piano keys, and a hung guitar art piece made out of metal gears. The waiter was attentive, pleasant, and fulfilled our customized requests accurately, timely, and graciously. The live music was wonderful! The musician was great and the audio system was clear but not excessively loud. We felt comfortable to dance and really had a nice time!

Overall, pretty good. Only complaint was that I waited 15 mins to eat once my food came out because I was waiting on something to add to my meal and even asked three different servers to get it.

Such a great experience each time we have gone! Food/drink/service is on point! I love the monthly Tavern Treats as well!
