I've been going to Eighty Ates since they've had two locations. Trevor and his staff are incredible. I don't get to go that often as I don't live that close. When I do, I always try something different and I'm never disappointed! I've been there many times for brunch, lunch and dinner. I always suggest that's this is where I want to go when I come into town, lol. There's something on their menu for everyone (gluten free, vegetarian). The cocktails are amazing. The atmosphere is accommodating for everyone. A family can sit in the dining area. The lounge is great for smaller parties. Then there's the bar area. I highly recommend this establishment. read more

Super friendly and menu-knowledgeable server made the Wednesday night dinner special an even better deal! My scallops were perfectly cooked, not rubbery at all, and the pasta was a fine al dente. The cowboy ribeye was pretty good too. read more

Food was excellent. Service and waitstaff excellent.Ambience nice Noise level good.There wasn't that long of a wait for our orders to be put in or our food to arrive. read more

The waitstaff was friendly and the ambiance was nice. But the service was so slow. It took 45 mins to get appetizers. Entrees were served on rudiculously hot plates while the actual food is barely warm. I got a "stuffed" chicken dish which consisted of overcooked/dry chicken placed over bland stuffing, topped with coagulated (canned??) gravy. The asparagus still had the white, woody ends and weren't seasoned. My husband got steak tips over rice pilaf. It looked and tasted like something you'd get in a hospital cafeteria. Pricing is fair. Like I said, the ambiance is good and the waitstaff was attentive. But the food...yuck. We won't be back. read more

I love finding hidden gems in Massachusetts and this is definitely one of them. The menu has something for everyone. The service is wonderful and the waitress we had was attentive. The large bar has TV's and the dining area is comfortable and inviting. Don't drive by this little spot, it's worth the stop. read more

We went to the place, it started out good. Looked nice. We sat down and ordered drinks. After this, we then ordered Spinach Artichoke Dip and some pancakes. Waited 45 minutes, didn't even get our food. Would not recommend for people who want their food done in time. read more

Finallllly tried Bistro 88's. Honestly, this is the closest restaurant to our home and I had never been here and I'm not sure why? My partner was looking forward to trying out 88's after I read the menu and noticed 2 things he's always wanted to try... Beef Wellington (from watching Hell's Kitchen) and Steak Pizzaiolo (from watching Everybody Loves Raymond). We made reservations and brought my elderly mother along. We were very happy with our meals. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted fresh. There are still a lot of menu selections we'd love to come back to try. So happy we found an excellent restaurant within a 5 minute drive from our home! read more

The menu is very impressive and sophisticated with a few hits and a few misses. We started with an affordable cocktail which packed a punch and a couple appetizers. The spinach dip was mostly cheese and little else but the calamari was nicely done and tasted fresh. The atmosphere inside is nice- we chose to sit in the dining room vs the lounge since it was quieter and had no tvs, although the lounge had a fun festive vibe as I walked through to the restroom. The prices were high for the appetizers but the entrees and cocktails were not bad. Next time I would skip the apps. I really enjoyed the California Haddock topped with lump crab meat and my friend had a gorgeous Romaine Wedge salad with Pecan encrusted Salmon. One thing to note, the cocktails were amazing and so creative and perhaps this was just for the New Years cocktails... there was a teeny lighted ball in the drink that seemed like a choking hazard. I hope they won't continue with that. Otherwise I applaude this new place and their creativity. read more

Made reservations for a Saturday night, it wasn't busy at 5 when we got there but quickly got busy. We ordered some drinks, the red sangria was delicious. Appetizers were great- there were so many great options on the menu. Highly recommend the Rangoon. There is a wide variety of options for meals, I loved having all the great options, that itself makes us want to go back to get something new to try! The tuna wasn't really sesame "crusted" and it was super fishy. I've had tuna before and it wasn't that fishy. It wasn't really what I was expecting but if you like that definitely try it the veggies and noodles were great, not super flavorful all in all. The other dishes were delicious. Great portions and great prices. 8 alcoholic drinks between 10-12 dollars, 2 apps, 4 entrees and piece of birthday cake (thanks to the staff for a great performance) the bill came to 245! Without tip! Lyn our waitress was great! We asked her to wait to put our meals in and it came out at a perfect time! We were done with our apps and had time in between to talk and drink! Will definitely be back & bringing friends. read more

Have you ever had a scallop grilled cheese?! Omg! They had it as a special and it was amazing. I do wish that they would do more brunch specials. We've gotten a little bored with the regular options. But that's because we have gone so much. They have been very accommodating when I had a special request. Dependable restaurant in a convenient location. The waitresses are very good, especially the lady who has been there a while. She is fantastic! read more

They pile food on top of food. Got the turkey dinner. Not sure what kinda turkey they used? Jenny-O turkey from the local grocery store? but it was weird. My potatoes were cold on the bottom, topped with long carrots and on top of the carrots was the turkey. A pile of food. I saw other dishes coming out for other people, just like mine, everything on top of everything. Just like a horse and a food bag. A bit disappointing. However, the mocktail was really good. read more

I reallllly wanted Beef Wellington for my birthday dinner. So we decided to give this place a shot. Well, I didn't get Beef Wellington--I got a filet with a puff pastry on top (see photo). Pretty disappointing. It tasted ok but I was sad to learn that it does usually come wrapped via other photos here as well as the menu description so I'm not sure what happened. I'm not one to send things back and I wasn't sure that I hadn't misread the menu until I left. I'm still giving it 3 stars because everything else was decent. I LOVE that they have a mocktail menu because I don't drink, and the drink was yummy! We started with bacon brussel sprouts. They were good but I wish they had been a little more crispy. The desserts were the absolute best part of the meal. We got the Nutella s'more puff pastry and the apple crisp spring rolls. read more

Was not that busy to seat 5... approximately a 5 minute wait. Alcoholic beverages took about 15 minutes to deliver. Appetizer Nachos were good took about 20 minutes. The meal ordered at the same time as the apps took 1.5 hours with multiple excuses,no care to ask for refills or updating why the delay. As other customers arrive minutes after us ate their desserts and left. The manager apologized several times included the meal was being plated and server in 4 minutes. 20 Minutes later it arrived... food was good but they should have compensate up something!!! read more

I ordered a special salad and it said blueberries in it. It comes out and the greens tasted like plastic so definitely from a bag. And the blueberries were these tiny tiny blueberries that were frozen. She said they must of been out of the fresh ones. Well then take it off the menu. This was after there was a hair on my chicken skewer for our appetizer. I removed it and didn't say anything. So yes I know I should have but the others were enjoying it so I know sometimes these things happen. But after the lousy salad then it was time to write this review read more

This restaurant in Webster Massachusetts is unbelievably amazing it's a hidden gem if you may. They go over the top with fancy meals with a real decent price. The presentation is amazing along with the taste of the food. I highly recommend this place for a date nights or a night out or to bring the family. It is the best restaurant in town in my opinion. I highly recommend this place you must try it out if you haven't before read more

Service was whatever. It took us a bit to get seated and food ordered. We got the cucumber caprese and a buffalo chicken pizza. There's really no need to have a giant basil leaf on the cucumbers. It's overpowering and much better if you take the basil off. The pizza wasn't crispy and the chicken wasn't evenly distributed on it. 1 slice had nothing, and 2 of them were covered in what looked like fried chicken meatballs. The taste was fine, but really? There's a big sign on the back wall that says "big city experience without leaving town" but the only thing I was grateful for was leaving that restaurant. read more

This is a review for COVID DELIVERY. I have to say- this company really stepped up. I had been wanting to eat at this restaurant for a while. But we happened to order because they were one of the few dedicated businesses that decided to offer delivery during the coronavirus lockdown. We ordered the fried goat cheese and buffalo chicken Rangoon for appetizers, the fish and chips and the burnt end Mac and cheese. I honestly couldn't believe how amazing both apps were. The outside of the fried goat cheese was perfectly crisp while the inside was super creamy and flavorful. Reminds me of Bocado but less expensive! The Rangoon... I didn't think I was going to like. But holy cow! So good! Even delivered they were still crispy, moist inside and slightly spicy. The bleu cheese tasted homemade but I don't know if it is. The beer battered fish and chips was TO DIE FOR! If it was this good delivered I can only imagine how it is at the restaurant. Flaky fish inside while the outside was covered in a crusty shell. Yes! So much yes! My fiancé ordered the Mac and cheese. I am not a fan of mac and cheese but this was FANTASTIC! Smoky, creamy and definitely a solid "we must order again"! We cannot wait until this outbreak is done. Once it is- we will be coming in to try everything fresh. I can't believe how amazing everything was delivered. I'll definitely support this business in the future! read more

My son lives across the street, so I am almost there weekly. Recently, we messed up our plans, so I drive there and no son. My wife and I walked in. Everything we want in a restaurant is there. Parking, great food, top notch service, nice presentation. NO TVs in the room you walk in. REALLY.. NO ADVERTISING on the BOOB TUBE. read more

DONT BE FOOLED! I have no quarrels with this restaurant and I just went for the first time and need to share my experience. The atmosphere was welcoming and the servers are great. However, DO NOT order the beef wellington it is overpriced and frankly misleading. The description talks of a traditional beef wellington wrapped in puff pastry with mushroom duxelle that we all know and love. What this restaurant serves is a piece of beef TOPPED with the pastry and a small smear of the mushroom. On top of this if you don't like your beef rare almost blue then good luck; there seems to be a chef who despite request of medium well will not prepare it that way as to not ruin the tenderness of the steak and they will not take it back to re-fire. I had to stomach the almost raw steak for full price and leave with the urge to post this review. I hope the restaurant can start to understand not everyone wants their beef prepared in an extremely rare manner as it puts a damper on the whole meal. I would like to visit this restaurant again but I definitely will be sticking to chicken based dishes to ensure I get thoroughly cooked food. read more

We've been a few times recently and Lynn (our main server in the bar area) and all the staff we're spot on! This weekend, we had a party of eight and everything was still right on, meals were hot, drinks were chilled. And a great time was had by all!! Good portions and reasonable prices. Will definitely be back. read more

We went to 88's tonight. Place was packed but they did a great job of handling the crowd. Our server was Nic, and while he was running around like a chicken with a head cut off, he was able to skillfully meet our needs, actually anticipate our needs like a pro. We enjoyed the Clam Chowder and Chicken Rangoons. The chowder was awesome but the Rangoons were even better. Huge and full of chicken that was not overly seasoned with hot sauce. Seriously really good. I had a huge pork chop with cheesy risotto. Seriously amazing. Really delicious. My wife had the Caprese Chicken Panini which was equally delicious. 88's is a great spot. Great menu, interesting specials done right. Never disappoints. Very enjoyable. read more

Just had a phenomenal breakfast at eighty Trevor B Eightyates! The food was so delicious. Mark had steak and eggs. I had English muffin with spinach and pouched eggs on top. The steak was so tender and the eggs cooked to perfection. My dish was amazing! Will have the same next week. Trevor Dieffenwierthpleaae put on menu! Oh and by the way, very clean establishment and the service was outstanding!! 5 stars read more

Drinks were good! Service could be better the waitress seems new and didn't really have any thoughts on the menu. The Buffalo Rangoon for an app was okay a bit on the dry side. I would add something in the middle to keep moist and they were huge so maybe making them smaller. I also got the Lobster and scallop pasta which was okay needed more sauce. We will give it a try again because it is a nice little place and it was busy. read more

Been several times and overall great experiences. i LOVE their sunday brunch, the eggs benedict sampler is a great idea, and so good. They also have great food for dinner and offer a lot to choose from! Trever (the manager) is super nice and always makes his rounds to say hi to everyone which is always a great sign. Great place :) read more

Worst dining experience in years. We were seated immediately. Our waitress came 5 minutes later, took our drink order and disappeared. We were seated next to a table of screaming kids whose mothers thought their behavior was just fine. To the dads credit, they tried to quiet the little banshees, but got no help from the harpie wives. That table complained about their meals, got replacement dishes and free drinks, while we went unnoticed. We waited 25 minutes, to the second, without ever seeing our waitress, Lynn, and left. Second terrible experience in a row at this place. Will never go back. read more

We ate here only once before a few years back, so husband and I thought we'd give it a try again. This cute little restaurant is very clean (which is my most important pet-peeve) - and it has a pleasant and inviting atmosphere. We both decided to get the fish & chips (even though we were a little disappointed that there was no coleslaw served with it). The waitress was very nice, very helpful and attentive, and our food arrived pretty quickly. Upon first seeing our plates we were pleasantly surprised as our pieces of fish were humungous in its size! We could tell that the fish was really fresh, it was a nice flakey white piece of fish! My only critique is that the beer batter on it was way too thick which overpowered the deliciousness of the delicate white fish fillet. Although it tasted good, the thick batter seemed to hold the oil it was fried in. If they would add some coleslaw and used a much lighter crunchy batter, I'd eat that at this place at least once a week! read more

This is truly a hidden gem in Webster Massachusetts. The menu has many items that I wanted to try, it isn't small to say the least. Tons of unique appetizers, Specialty drinks and a great dessert menus. Small heaters in the outside tent and even televisions. Everything we ordered was fantastic! The owner walked to each table to ask if everything was to our liking. The wait staff was friendly and attentive. I can't wait to go back. Oh did I forget to mention, they also have a Sunday brunch. read more

I don't know how this place still in business! Actually I do know, it's because all of the clientele is the trailer park trash from Indian Ranch. Made a 7:45 reservation for the actual bar earlier in the day and arrived to find out they were too busy for our reservation! Nor did they reserve spots at the bar for us per our reservation request. So we got stuck at an unclean two top table in the dark corner of the restaurant. I keep trying to give this place a chance but they can't do anything correctly! Food, reservations, timely service, drinks.... this place is a dumpster fire just like the neighborhood it supports! read more

We have been to 88s for dinner about ten times now and every time, our server, Nick, has been exceptional. Definitely request him! Today, we went for Sunday brunch and I cannot stop raving about the food to anyone who will listen. The lobster Benedict is on point, the poutine is to die for, and the breakfast shepherds pie is so unique and delicious. The food here is always fresh and extremely well done. Can't wait to come back! read more

Good food and drinks but the poor service ruined the business dinner tonight. It is very unlikely I will go back.

Just had a great dinner. Steak perfectly seasoned and grilled with crispy truffle fries. Friendly and attentive server.

I visited this local restaurant on a Friday night around 9pm and instantly loved the place. The bartender was prompt friendly and accommodating. We ordered appetizers that were tasty and cooked perfect. Highly recommend this restaurant read more

Came here with my wife tonight for the first time. Was pleasantly surprised to be seated quickly on a Saturday night. Staff was very friendly. My wife had her heart set on the prime rib. But they were out. So she ordered the nachos as her meal and I ordered the fish and chips. We also ordered the buffalo rangoons as an appetizer. The appetizer was really good. Awesome presentation and yummy. But then....the food took an awkwardly long time to come. Granted, I think they were busy. But I do think something must have happened in the kitchen to our order. It finally came maybe 20 full minutes after they took the appetizer dishes away. The nachos were different. It was a stack of tortillas. Good toppings. Just a different take on nachos. Not my wife's idea of nachos. Oh well. My fish and chips were well cooked. But nothing special. A piece of fish on a pile of fries. I even ordered the dark beer batter version, but I don't think it's what I got. The tarter sauce just OK, and the little bit they give you wasn't really enough. I think the atmosphere inside was nice. I have a feeling this was an off night for them. I'm guessing they've got some menu items we might have liked more. read more

Got the scallops and bacon app on the advice of other Yelpers - really sadly sized scallops and 'pulverized' bacon was just bacon strips. Disappointing and definitely not worth the money. Their 'wedge' salad is three strips of romaine lettuce hanging off a plate that are absolutely impossible to cut or eat cleanly. The 'margarita' pizza is a regular pizza with shredded basil and tomato sauce, basically a cheese pizza with some canister basil. Only redeeming quality to this place is the service. They are prompt and try very hard to please - the food is trying too hard to be fancy without being able to produce the desired outcome in the least. read more

Everything tastes like a smokey fire pit and the meatloaf was as dry as a brick. I'm all set with this place.

Food was really good and the menu looks good but the bartender (katrina) was very rude and not personable at all. I would not go back just because of her. If you can't be polite to your customers why be a bartender and deal with people? The place was also very slow so was no need to be rude me and my girlfriend were very polite from the start. read more

Food was awful and over priced. I was excited to try this restaurant only to be disappointed by the price and quality.
