Visited on a busy Saturday night with a reservation. The menu has an excellent variety of options; ample options when it comes to beer and wine, although be honest, we came for the delicious homemade sangria. Our favorite tapas: Croquetas de Chorizo, meatballs, Gambas (shrimp) ajillo, even the Kobe empanadas were out this world. The flan made for a perfect ending. Ample public parking behind the building; worth the drive from anywhere.

We had not been here recently after being underwhelmed a few years ago. Very different experience this time. Service was excellent all around including a very knowledgeable and attentive waiter. While the menu is tilted towards meat, the four of us had seafood main courses which were uniformly in the excellent/wonderful range. All the food was excellent from apps to dessert. The selection of wines by the glass was very good.
Our table was in a corner out of the main area which allowed for easy conversation. I do think sitting in the midst of the main room would be too loud.
L'Andana is very expensive but you do "get what you pay for" there.

My kids and I went here while visiting the Boston area. They have a nice selection of muffins - we got 6 different varieties to try. They were all just "OK." They either seemed very dry, or very greasy. They were all sweet, but didn't have much flavor other than "sweet." I wouldn't go here again.

My family and I have been purchasing cookies from Lakota’s for more than 11 years. Every cookie is delicious and unique. They are consistent and never disappoint! I especially love the rum balls and orange cookies. Definitely check them out! You’ll definitely be back.

What a tremendous resource for our small town! Ralph the owner is almost always on the premises and frequently pitches in, making sandwiches when things get busy, which is often the case. The food is great, the staff are efficient and friendly, and the new expanded space features excellent wines for sale. We are lucky to have "Dags" here in Winchester!

Had the best Italian sub there the other day--Old school, piled high with freshly sliced Italian meats (Mortadella, Capicola, Salami, etc.) and finished with olive oil, vinegar and herbs and a variety of toppings (hots, tomatoes, lettuce, pickles, etc.). Bring an appetite, because you will not be able to eat the whole sub in one sitting--great as leftovers as well!

Nick Varano, owner of Strega, Strega Waterfront, and Nico Ristorante in the Boston area is opening a new high-end Italian steakhouse in Woburn where he wants "everyone to feel like a celebrity." The expansive 352-seat space (312-seats indoors/ 40-seats outdoors) features Strega’s signature sleek design and décor with brilliant light fixtures and deep woods throughout the interior.
Strega Prim is an upscale restaurant with excellent service and food.
Instead of bread, we got a popover - very nicely done.
the drinks we ordered were super.
Our table had halibut, sirloin, pasta bolonese, and pasta with lobster. All were outstanding. Oysters were good, too.
Not cheap, but you do get what you pay for here.
Large dining area, but not noisy.

Mamadou's sells at their baking location and at the local Farmers' Market. They sell a wide variety of artisanal breads. My favorites are the ones with pecans and raisins/cranberries. A bit pricey but lower than others I've seen at other farmers' markets. Highly recommended.

The Bancroft is a new chef-driven steakhouse and craft cocktail lounge from the Webber Restaurant Group, the family behind the Gibbet Hill Grill and Farm and the Burlington-based Fireside Catering. This restaurant is edgy and urban, an exciting spot to socialize after work and a striking setting for a special night out. The service style is warm and attentive. The environment is dramatic and sexy. We want our guests to have a dining out experience, not just dine out. The Bancroft strives to entertain, to impress, and to be memorable. As a locally owned restaurant group, the Webber family seeks to provide gathering places that are a source of pride for the community, and is invested in making The Bancroft a neighborhood institution in Burlington.
Treated ourselves to a dinner date at The Bancroft in Burlington, MA. We don't typically dine at a high end restaurant like this, but every once in a while we splurge.
Firstly, you'll need a reservation. By 6 PM, the place was packed...crazy busy. We started with bourbon based cocktails at $12 a piece. Delicious, but a bit pricey. Followed that up with a crabcake appetizer, which was amazing. For dinner, we had a basic salad, mushrooms, fingerling potatoes, and steaks. My wife had a 12 oz. filet & I had a 16 oz, 28 day aged ribeye...both were excellent. For desert we split chocolate cake and ice cream, also delicious. We washed all that down with some Merlot.
Overall, the Bancroft was quite good, but for $250 (including tip) it wasn't great. The three sides were just underwhelming, which keeps it from being great.

This restaurant never disappoints. It is quaint with a small seating area so reservations are recommended. The menu changes seasonally however the pressed chicken is amazing year round! Salads are fresh. Always a number of specials too. Chocolatato with salted caramel ice cream is a great finish. Great neighborhood restaurant.
