Love coming here, the ambiance is nice. The food is great and the price is right. I like to go check out New a balance Global Store next door then come for lunch or dinner at this restaurant. The servers are energetic and always lively. I really like looking at the bar it’s very cool. This place is good to come with a date, family, or friends. The calamari is so good, it’s my favorite!

Nice restaurant, ample seating, wait staff is very patient and helpful. Nice decor. Food is delicious. We ordered Mac n cheese and Chicken fingers for kids and they loved it. We ordered firecracker shrimp for starters, it was delicious. “Roasted Atlantic Salmon” was perfectly cooked and the white cream sauce was sweetly yummy. I also ordered “Lobster Roll” which again was very nice but the lime juice in the bread was on the higher side and was overpowering the whole lobster taste. 1 less star for that.

Great ambiance, lovely food, exemplary service. The lobster Roll was divine. Calamari brilliantly crisp that it just cracks in the mouth Rail Stop Burger just melts in the mouth, Ceaser salad rich and filling , the Beer- allagash white soft and smooth , lunch was a wholesome experience. Now why only 4 stars? I am sure they can make it even more heavenly

I visited with 2 of my friends, and I experienced poor treatment. We started with cocktails and appetizers, but the server kept on saying “you have to order Entrees”. She almost refused to take our order for more cocktails until we order Entrées which was absurd, further the server was making rude faces and unkind/impatient noises while we were giving our order.

Very wonderful restaurant, great atmosphere, been here several times and always the staff was very polite and attentive. The food and drinks are worth the price, the wild mussels were very much appreciated. Great place to unwind on your day off.

Came here for brunch with some friends. Service was good without being overly attentive. Portion sizes are decent for the prices. I got the brioche French toast, which came with three large, thick slices of bread and a heap of butter on top. Might’ve been nice to dress it up with a piece of fruit or something on the side but it was tasty!

Great new spot in Brighton Landing, big bar good drinks. We had the seafood paella and the tuna nicoise- both excellent. Lots of room as well as some outdoor seating. Looking forward to going back again

Please try the steak tips and the ricotta pancakes. This is the best brunch restaurant in Boston and I don’t know how they don’t have a huge waitlist every day. The food is delicious and the service was great. The food is also very reasonably priced compared to the extremely nice interior. My girlfriend noticed that all of the furniture and interior decor was immaculately done and they clearly didn’t skimp on any of the decor. They also have a bar if you would like to sit there instead. There is also adequate outdoor seating. We really liked the server as well and seriously the food was so good. The steak tips are really tender and flavorful. My girlfriend thought the ricotta pancakes tasted like ice cream in the best way possible. We also got the barbecue chicken pizza and it wasn’t as good as everything else but it was still very good.

Excellent food. Atmosphere and service are great, all of the wait staff are very friendly. I had the fried pickles, margherita pizza (pictures), and an ice tea, which were all great. Service was quick compared to other restaurants of its type. Pizza was fantastic; perfectly cooked with bold flavors and a perfect balance. Highly recommend.
