Disappointed. Limited menu, small portions, and high prices. Fish and chips were mediocre at best. Burger was way overcooked.... The place was freezing inside, which meant the fries were too within a couple of minutes. Staff seemed stretched thin and wasn'tattentive or communicative. Was very hungry when I arrived and left unhappy I'd picked this place. I do appreciate thethoughtful response from the owner. Everywhere has bad days, so hopefully your experience will be better.

Completely unprofessional and rude staff. They ignored us and the people at the bar stared at us like we didn?t belong. Went... down the street to the fusion place and instantly our night was turned around. Don?t waste your time, go down the street,there?s better service and better food. Read more

I will give them this much, it was a busy nite. But I am very disappointed. Both corn bread appetizers were undercooked . We... were hungry and ate one and the other was returned. I requested a replacement which never came. We received the chickensandwich, which was also undercooked. I returned it. A few minutes later the manager (female) came over to inform me the cheftold her it was not undercooked and it was fine. Please do not tell me something is not undercooked! Really? Try again - inthis instance the customer is right. Read more

One of the few family pubs in Dedham with outdoor seating dining. Great place to bring the kids for a family meal. Delicious... healthy comfort food and selection of micro brews with the cacophony of the Yard House in Legacy Place. Read more

Honestly one of the weirdest dining experiences of my life. They didn't seem to have outdoor seating figured out yet (a little... strange for July) and were surprised when we asked for it. Our waitress was very sweet but a little awkward and would linger atthe table since we were the only outdoor table when we got there. We ordered the cornbread and some cocktails. The cornbread wasmostly raw but honestly still delicious. We then got a burger and the chicken pot pie. The burger didn't come with the correcttoppings, which our waitress left to go get. The chicken pot pie was so good, however my date finished his plate, and even hadit cleared, while our waitress served other outdoor tables that had arrived and forgot about fixing the burger. When we orderedmore drinks we reminded her. When the drinks came to the table she asked if we wanted a box for the burger, and we said no, wejust wanted the toppings we had been asking for. She apologized, returned with the toppings, then stood and watched as we builtthe burger. The burger was very cold and inedible at this point and left on the table. None of the food runners knew where tobring their food and wandered around awkwardly, the girl who brought us more drinks couldn't tell us which was which, we waitedover an hour and a half for the check (spent 2 and a half hours here total). The uniforms were T shirts and whatever yoga pantsthey wanted to wear. The hostess was sitting in the window on her phone the whole time. Our menus were never taken and we had toawkwardly eat around them. There was only one paper drink menu that they had to keep moving from table to table. Appetizer, 4drinks, 2 entrees was $100 but not worth the money. We would not go back here. Read more

Conveniently located with lots of parking nearby, this place has a good vibe, some tasty food and decent enough drinks. Service... is attentive quick and efficient. The corn bread was fantastic - the main course was OK and then the desserts were verygood. The shepherd pie for example had lots of potatoes and very little meat and the salmon was dry - over done. But dessertsall hit the spot and in balance we left rather pleased with the experience. Read more

Delicious food, excellent staff, and an warm contemporary atmosphere at this new Dedham restaurant! My partner and I have been... so impressed with the food and service that I had to write a review. We've had the cod with leeks and mushrooms and salmon withhoney mustard and fennel - in both cases the fish was perfectly seasoned and prepared and the accompaniments where unique and sogood! We've also tried the grilled steak and the flavorful chicken tagine that tastes like it's been simmered all day. Grilledshrimp app has an amazing citrus sauce and you will want to savor every drop of the broth that comes with the mussels! Can youtell I love this place? Read more

Love this swanky new neighborhood joint in the heart of historic Dedham village. I didn?t know about the horse thieves... association until now and how important it was during Dedham?s early days as an agricultural economic center for Boston. (Theywould protect the horsesLol from getting stolen.) Dedham is a little-known yet important part of American history. We have thefirst public school in America and the oldest standing house (Fairbanks house). This place does Dedham and atmosphere and foodright - suggest trying the fried cauliflower and the shrimp appetizer - both are extremely good ???????? Read more
