Reviews for Midway in Dedham, MA
Great served right away other worker even asked how we were!! Food came out in less than 10 minutes I loved the fries!!
I have been here many times as I have established myself as a local the past 8 years. Today I was pretty disappointed in the ... quality of my dish. Chicken Picatta. The sauce is thickened with something that just did not taste right. The dish is supposedto be cooked with capers and sliced lemon in a pan,the chicken is supposed to be dredged in flour so the brown bits add theflavor and thickness to the lemony wine sauce. It was tiny bland chicken pieces. the roasted peppers are that from a Jar, theasparagus was lackluster. I also ordered a watermelon mojito made with malibu watermelon liquor. The drink was not great andmade incorrectly. Firstly it tasted as malibu coconut was used instead, there wasn't enough mint and it wasn't muddled for theoils of the mint to release their flavor. The liquor was poured last in the drink, as you could taste that floating on top. Ihad to muddle the mint with my fingers and add a splash of my kids raspberry lime Rickey to make it a palatable drink, by thispoint all the ice had meted with me trying to remedy my own drink. While the server was nice and friendly; the service wasinattentive and rushed. If the server had come to our table to check on things, I could have politely explained my drinksituation, so I could get something else. Or to get another round of rolls, or ask for grated cheese for my meal to make thatalso a little more palatable. My daughter got an crabcake blt, which in essence sounds ambitious, creative and tasty. I wasproud of her for ordering something a little different. The crab cake was indeed homemade, but hard to identify crab meat. itwas more flat and soggy. It did not have those crispy edges when fried to perfection in a pan with butter. Sigh, alsolackluster. While the meals and my drink proved disappointing, this is me not saying I shall never eat at this establishmentagain. This is me saying, I'll stick to more typical bar type fare, burgers and such until midway can hone in on these dishes Read more
Mmmmmmmm delicious!! I had the meatloaf and my husband had the pork chop which was cooked to perfection...so juicy and... flavorful! The atmosphere was very welcoming and listened to the live music which was a man on guitar...totally awesome! Thewait staff and bar staff were spot on perfect ! Can't wait to go again as every plate I saw come out of the kitchen lookedamazing...I was like...ohhhh I gotta try that!! Read more
1 star because the staff were great and a additional star for the calamari being delicious. The silverware and area were dirty... and I understand the test if time but I never complain about things needing to be cleaner like I have here. The drinks werelimited not only by the menu but by the drinks available behind the bar. I wouldn't order any drinks off the menu and I usuallygrab a pair or more or expresso martini's and taste from all over I actually opted against it here. They just didn't tastegreat. The calamari was delicious and fresh and so lightly crusted and still held together I would go as far to say it wascooked perfectly. The old fashioned seafood chowder was more of a watered down soup the fried shrimp plate was cooked good andfor the clam strips where so so. I won't come back here just came to give the place my review and opinion while I was in thearea. Read more
On 4/3 I ordered take out and asked for 3 steak tip Caesar salads and a midway sampler at 4:30 pm I picked up my order at 5:00... and had a glass of wine at the bar while waiting at 5:00 pm. I brought my order home for my family at about 5:30 pm. I noticedat 6:00 pm after I walked my dog and got settled that my order was incorrect. I thought I was missing the midway sampler so Icalled and they put me on hold come to find out I was missing the steak tip salad which I realized after they picked up afterhaving me on hold. He completely dismissed me the owner who I called back an would only give me a first name ?Fred? and said hecould not give me the last name. He told me he put the bag together and it was correct and I?m going back and fourth on my orderwhen I was just reading what was on the packaging. And I was at the bar a cook had brought the order out to me personally. Hedismissed me again and hung up on me. Completely unprofessional I worked as a waitress for 8 years and was taught the customer?was always right? and to show hospitality and now I?m a nurse of 8 years I don?t need anything free which is what I told him.We give them a lot of business as well as all my family and friends. And this is truly disappointing and disrespectful to behung up on and tell me quote on quote ?that I am lying?. I honestly wouldn?t recommend this restaurant that has been around along time to anyone. After working two full time jobs I don?t need this I am truly disappointed and as I told the manager ?Fred?I am not one to complain. Read more
We really enjoy the Midway. The food is fresh off the grill and yummy. I highly recommend anything with the fries. The eggroll... appetizer is not too spicy and oh so tasty. The garlic bread was fresh. Outstanding food and friendly service. Also, the bestway to fill some of the seats left empty due to social distancing! Read more
Great food and drinks, service is friendly and fast. The brownie dessert is a must! Cozy and festive for Christmas.
Catering was an exceptional experience. Donna was beyond amazing. Highly recommend using them.
