    This is our new favorite restaurant in Westport - we always look forward to coming here! The name "Backyard" is the perfect name, because everything made here really tastes like it's homemade. The staff and owner are extremely warm and kind, which makes you always feel welcomed. You can't go wrong with any food you order here! The burgers are all extremely fresh and flavorful, the fried chicken is breaded perfectly, the salad is deliciously proportioned, and the wings are to die for (with the best side of ranch in the area... I wish they sold it in tubs to take home!) They do also sell beer and wine for alcoholic beverage options. We also heard they serve brunch as well... which we are excited to try out soon! The inside is charming and is designed with a lot of fun personality. Just a note for accessibility: The indoor seating is all stools and high tops, which may not be comfortable for older guests or guests with mobility limitations. However, the outdoor seating in the warmer months provides a lot more seating variety for everyone - and their patio is absolutely adorable! They do have heated igloos on their patio as well during the colder months. We are so excited to have Backyard in our local community. We bought gift cards for our entire family for Christmas - if you haven't tried Backyard yet, you are missing out!

    Burger with shrettuce and onions

    Stopped at The Backyard for lunch after a surf sesh on a hot Friday and it totally hit the spot. We ended up sitting inside to cool off, it's super cute inside and has a fun, laid-back vibe. Outside is awesome too with cornhole and spots to hang out. Definitely a great place to chill post-beach. Beer selection is top tier. A little pricey, but you get the good stuff , Bissell Brothers, Canned Heat, Widowmaker, and more. Super impressed by the options. Our server was awesome, super friendly and on point. We both got burgers and fries, and wow... the fries are amazing, probably some of the best I've had. Burgers were huge and delicious. I could only eat half. Prices are around $20 for a burger and fries, and beers are $10+ depending on what you get. The music inside had a great old-school vibe that totally matched the place. Can't wait to go back, it's right off 88 and a perfect stop after the beach.

    Fried chicken sandwiches

    We checked out this place and were not disappointed. The fried pickles are a must. The friend chicken sandwiches were good but they are huge and I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had split one with someone. It's a low key place with a few tables and a bar. They have an outdoor area but it was raining the day we went. I imagine it would be very buggy, but it would be worth checking it out. The staff was nice and efficient. They had records playing which made for a nice vibe.

    Burger Patty Melt and fries

    Perfectly done burgers, fries and grilled cheeses. Comfortable outdoor bar and patio serving cans of beer from area breweries. They just opened at the beginning of July but we've already visited a handful of times! We have 2 small kids so appreciate that they have a kiddie sized picnic table (and juice boxes are available as a beverage option.) While the grown-ups relax, the kids can run around in the grass and play and we can keep an eye on them. But if we ever get a babysitter, would be even nicer of course to just go with friends or on a date and play cornhole. This is a welcome addition for us in the neighborhood, complementing the existing Buzzards Bay Brewing and the winery for laidback outdoor food and drinks! It's a hit right now in the summer, but I'm also excited to check it out once it's winter since I believe it will have an indoor option then. We'll be there too I'm sure!

At 5pm on a Thursday we were seated next to a table where the GM was interviewing a candidate for a management position. "Pizza is not our product," the GM said. "It's what gets people in the door. Our product is customer service." Really? Then you're failing. No one was at the front desk when we walked in. Several employees sat in the front booths on laptops, and nobody approached us for five minutes. Both of our pies arrived uncut. Neither the expediter nor the waitstaff noticed, so we had to ask for them to be cut. Despite all the floor staff milling around, the bartender was assigned as our server. I don't blame her, she was hustling alone to get her station ready. Nobody asked if we wanted another round or dessert. We had to chase down our check. All while the GM expounded on how tired he was of managers, several of whom he'd apparently just lost, failing to motivate their crews. Dude, you're obviously part of the problem. This is how a beloved brand dies.

We've stopped here a over a year ago, and was really please with the oyster bar that was there that is no longer. Nevertheless, there were about 12 yummy food vendors to choose from. We decided to give APizza and Cusser;s Roast Beef & Seafood a try. We got everything to go, since we were staying within a min walk. APizza was amazing! We go it by the slice, I wasn't expected much, but it blew my mind!! It was a New Haven style cheese pizza... my first time. The crust is so thin and crisp with a nice chew, the perfect amount of sauce, and nicely cheesy. I was impressed, and can't wait to go back! Cusser's Roast Beef sandwich was delicious as well. My husband is the roast beef connoisseur being from New England and all... he was in heaven! It was juicy and medium rare with a James River BBQ sauce and we added mayo to it per the owners suggestion and it was super tasty. So yes, great options at this food hall, we were very satisfied! We were so thrilled with our snacks, we went back later in the evening for dessert at Mike's pastry... cannolis yum! Thanks Hub Hall for making our tummies happy :)

Even though I was born and raised in the Boston area and have resided here for the entirety of my three decade long life, I've never had the original Santarpio's pizza until just now. I remember eating at their second location on Route 1 not long after it opened, but I thought it was just okay. Ever since then I've always thought to myself, "the original has gotta be better, right?" Well, my boyfriend and I finally made our way to the original Santarpio's on a Saturday a little after noon. The place isn't much to look at but was hopping for the weekend lunch rush with almost every table full, and we got put in what appeared to be one of the last available tables in the place. Our order was taken very quickly after sitting down. The menu is strictly pizza with around a dozen toppings to choose from and a handful of grilled meats. That's it. We ordered a pizza with garlic and hot peppers as well as a steak tip skewer. The steak tips were juicy and cooked nicely, but they tasted like they lacked seasoning or marinade so I had to sprinkle some salt and pepper on them. Of course, the pizza is what we were really there for and I can tell you that it checks all the boxes for a classic pizza. The crust is on the thinner, crispier side which I actually prefer. The pie as a whole had a great color and good flavor between the cheese, sauce and toppings. After experiencing it for myself, it's pretty easy to understand why Santarpio's is so highly regarded in the world of pizza. They stick to what they know and they execute it well.

We ordered a pizza by phone during the St. Anthony Feast, and the woman who took our order was curt and rude from the start -- I chalked it up to the festival rush. But it got worse when we picked up. We paid $32 for a pizza and asked if we could sit inside to eat it and there were plenty of available tables. We were told no -- inside is table service only, and takeout means you take it and eat elsewhere. Fine, except there was nowhere to sit outside at the festival. When we asked about using one of their own outdoor tables (they had roughly 30, and it was 11:15am, 45 minutes before the festival even started, so the tables were empty), we were told those were reserved for table-service customers only. This was after we'd already spent $32 in their restaurant. Regina's has been around for 100 years, but somewhere along the way they stopped caring about basic hospitality. Paying customers with nowhere to eat their food shouldn't be treated as an inconvenience. We won't be back.
