    Branzino
    Erika C.

    When it's *this* hot out, all I want are 'summer light' bites Luckily A Tavola in Winchester fits the bill! What I love is that everything was so fresh and the menu is everchanging; the night I dined there, Chef Joe spoke highly of the fisherman he got the branzino from and the farmers market he got some of the produce used in that night's dishes from. Some of the dishes I was able to taste (& my phone ate first) were: * Beet Salad - horseradish crema, cucumbers, whole grain vin * Branzino - blistered shishitos, shaved artichoke salsa verde * Halibut - olive oil poached herloom tomatoes, basil, oregano & garlic * Strawberry Shortcake - vanilla white cake, fresh and macerated strawberries, cream cheese whip * Blueberry Ricotta Cake - ricotta, blueberry glaze All of these dishes were complimented by my two craft beers - Bent Water Brewing's Premium Lager on Draft and Lone Pine Brewing's Summer Lights Citrus Wheat Ale. A Tavola, like their food menu, has a rotating beer & cider menu featuring new brews from New England craft breweries and cideries. Incredible food in a warm, intimate space featuring an open kitchen, newly opened expansion and a patio space to take advantage of this beautiful weather! A neighborhood restaurant that is truly invested in the community through collaborations, giving back and even partnering with the local elementary school to run a Seed to plate program to educate children about how to harvest ta garden and turn it's bounty into food for the table - a true seed to plate full circle! They also offer cooking classes, wine dinners, BBQ & Bourbon Dinners so keep an eye on their Instagram and website for upcoming events!

    Spaghetti Carbonara
    Eric L.

    The food was absolutely fantastic. Came with my friend who said the Lamb Osso Bucco was one of the best lamb dishes he has ever had. I had the Spaghetti Carbonara and was very satisfied. The portions were great and all the food including the bread was amazing. The bread is made fresh so that was a major plus. The service is amazing. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. He was helpful recommending dishes and cocktails and gave his honest opinions. It's a small place and definitely has a romantic vibe. We didn't get to sit at the chefs table but that looks like a fun experience for the next visit. Would highly recommend for a nice dinner out in Winchester.

    I have been going here for a few years now and each time I am reminded how absolutely incredible this spot is. The owner gets his ingredients from a local farmers market and it shows. The food is fresh and flavorful and put together with care and love. You can't go wrong with anything you order. They recently expanded to a bigger space but were still able to keep the cozy vibe. They also have an outdoor area for those who want to enjoy the weather. You have to check this place out at least once! You will definitely want to go back time and time again

    Our 5 year anniversary of meeting! Returning to A Tavola shortly!

    This is the restaurant I first took my son Edmund after meeting him for the first time 5 years ago! Will never ever be more nostalgic. Take him here and Olive Garden every year to remember the first time we met. love this place!

Not complaints or additional issues, simply showed them the order I placed and fulfilled it in a short time. Every time I've visited they've been pretty friendly and attentive to order details. I always get their smoothies so that's all I can comment on but everything I've tried always tastes good. I will agree with some of the reviews in that the prices can be a little on the higher side for this brand but one of the better options out there. The location has plenty of seating to enjoy indoors if desired. Giving five stars because I'm a repeat customer and customer service has always been good and I haven't felt the quality has degraded which is a win for me. While good, there are potential areas of improvement: - Display nutritional information of products (I like to know how many calories and sugar I'm ingesting in what I think is a healthy option) - I would LOVE to see organic options - Either slightly more modest pricing or a better reward system would be a good way to get more frequent visits :)

The soup was always put in on time so you could get fresh, great quality soup but now they only worry about broccoli cheddar soup. The rest, they could care less about the quality. I ordered cream of chicken & wild rice just to receive what looked like cold condensed canned soup/ almost like someone put canned chicken pot pie in a bowl and left it there next to a bag of chips. The manager is on the floor trying to maintain some sort of customer service but he seen my bowl of soups quality and still served it.

NOPE, I was talking with my partner when suddenly there was an issue because or so I thought because of yelling between employees and customers. As I'm thinking about leaving, another employee yells as he is opening the door to walk outside, this alone makes me jump because I didn't expect that. I tell my partner we need to leave. Honestly the cashier is a lovely, happy, go lucky young woman but her great energy & attentive attitude is not going to save this place. Panera Bread as a company is not what it says it is anymore. All the locations are very similar, gloomy, half cooked food & no one trained how they should be. I believe it's time Panera Closed its doors

You figure they'd double the meat or at least throw in a handful of potato chips for that price, but no such luck. Sure, the flavor was on point and the cola was cold, but I had this thing devoured in like 4 bites. I thought maybe this was just the pre-sandwich app before the "Super" arrived. Dimly lit and fairly crowded, you could tell the place was a hotspot for the locals. Familiar smells and idle chatter filled the tiny dining area and kept me occupied while I waited. The Hispanic Mario brother at the counter was helpful in suggesting something a first timer wouldn't appreciate, and based solely on flavor he wasn't wrong. I wouldn't personally choose the Super Pastrami as a selling point, but the menu seemed pretty crowded so I'm sure it was a difficult decision even for a seasoned veteran of Giovanni's. Italian, Mexican, seafood, beef, pizza...the menu seemed to offer something for everyone. All in all, decent experience. Not something I'd necessarily recommend, and with all the other options in the area I probably won't go back, but I don't regret stopping in.

The service was top notch and the food was cooked nicely. Our table had the chicken parm, chicken broccoli alfredo and scallops and everyone mostly enjoyed their meals. The reason for 4 stars is the scallops were supposed to be served over mush vellutata drizzled with basil oil and they were served on plain mashed potatoes. They did not tell us about this substitution and we ordered 2 of them. This was disappointing as it was a factor for why I chose to order the dish and I did not finish my meal. Additionally they have a profiterole on their dessert menu I was excited to try and that is no longer available. I'd encourage the restaurant to be more proactive about letting diners know of substitutions during the ordering process and to update their online menu.
