I was very impressed with the service. My pet peeve is dirty dishes sitting in front of people and that did not happen! The wedding cake was delicious. White homemade cake with a light strawberry cream. My only suggestion would be to have had someone to serve all the pies. It was kind of awkward having to do it yourself. I definitely recommend Emily's for your next event.

Absolutely fantastic!!!!! Emily's catered my daughter's…read morewedding at Smith Farm Gardens and totally nailed it. First, they were a joy to work with leading up to the big day. They were helpful, responsive, and everything was clear and upfront. There were no surprise charges, or "gotchas". In fact they did several things beyond the scope of the contract without additional charges. More importantly, on the wedding day everything went perfectly. They gave us great advice on the set up of the tables, chairs, bar etc. They listened carefully to everything that was asked of them, made a couple of outstanding suggestions and dealt with the problems caused by strong gusts of wind at an outdoor venue with calm assurance. All of the food was incredible. The hor's d'ourves were fantastic, especially the brie and artichoke tarts, mini lobster rolls and tuna tacos. The mac and cheese in mini ramekins were also a huge hit. The dinners were equally delicious. I had the half chicken, which was served with a delicious polenta. It was absolutely amazing. Perfectly cooked, moist with a crispy skin. Other sides were served family style and were all fantastic. The dessert was also superb. Each guest received a trio of mini desserts, each of which was delightful. We had several guests with food restrictions (vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free). The servers made sure the restrictions were observed, and they made it a point to bring appropriate appetizers to those guests, which was a very nice touch. All of the guests raved about the food. The service was also first class. There were so many servers handling the passed hor's d'ourves that every guest had multiple chances to try each of the offerings. Service of the dinner was equally impressive. The venue is outdoors, and it is a bit of a hike from the kitchen tent to the dining area. Despite that, the guests were served quickly, and the food came to the table still hot. Finally, their prices are quite reasonable, especially given the outstanding quality of the food and service. A very good value.

I think the produce and meat is reasonably priced and the staff are always answering any questions I have. Meat and seafood is all local. I also come here for lunch to get food from the food truck.

My picks for the best things off the truck are: 1) Lobster roll (limited availability) 2) Burnt ends 3) Macadilla 4) Brisket sandwich 5) Pulled pork sandwich 6) Fried pickles 7) Fries

Wednesday, November 08, 2006…read more Houle's is for Fools For all those who don't know the exact story or would like reference the event as one of the most all-time travesties in family dining here's how it all went down 11:45pm the night before- Craig throws out a comment like "hey that restaurant Houle's isn't bad, great omelets and a nice selection of underaged waitress" I think to myself, why venture away from the Egg & I where we have all held strong in battling hangovers; however, I am getting sick and tired of receiving one splenda for my 44 oz iced coffee. 9:40am- we enter Houle's family restaurant. Seems nice, they have a deli. Shaggy considers just getting a lb of deli meat for breakfast instead. They seat us near the bathrooms. 9:47am- Shaggy declares he never wants his house to look like this restaurant. The wallpaper has a criss-crossing blue, resembling a miswrapped attempt at a gift for Easter. Shaggy declares the wallpaper is making him nauseous. The waitress comes over, looking like a washed-out sourpuss from '79. Shaggy tries to order a bloody mary. 9:50am- Waitress immediately responds denying the bloody mary, Shaggy comes back with an order for a large tomato juice (drink 1) and a water (drink 2). Jamie orders a bagel, 2 eggs scrambled, an orange soda, and a water. Kyle orders a vegetable omelet with absolutely no onions and a water. I order the western omelet, of course with raisin toast. Nobody ever even thinks of raisin toast, even the waitress. Always wheat or white, but never raisin. Sarah orders a vegetable omelet with egg-whites (why even bother?) With no mushrooms. Shaggy orders eggs benedict (of course, and it was not even on the menu, how did he even know to order this?) and a side of the hash casserole, and another water (drink 3). The waitress affirms the casserole is excellent. 9:58am- Wondering where our food is. Haven't seen anyone in 8 minutes except for a guy visiting the bathroom wearing a top-hat, could have been Abe Lincoln. He definitely heard me make the Abe Lincoln joke. 10:05am- Our food comes out. Jamie's eggs look like caulking. Kyle receives an omelet with no mushrooms, but it has onions. Kyle claims the omelet has extra onions. My food is fine, and the raisin toast was excellent. Sarah receives an egg-white omelet with no onions, but definitely mushrooms. Apparently there has been a bit of a mix-up. Shaggy immediately tries his eggs benedict. "Mediocre hollandaise sauce" he exclaims. Who has enough hollandaise sauce to be able to distinguish between them? I think to myself that shaggy should have just gone with the lb of deli meat, maybe it would have been enough food to shut him up for the whole meal. Waitress immediately scurries away after dropping off food. 10:10am- Waitress returns to the table. The mix-up is disclosed to the waitress about the two omelets. The waitress takes the two plates into the kitchen. 10:11am- Waitress returns to the table after one minute. I exclaim how quick this whole exchange was. Kyle's omelet coincidentally has the same amount of ketchup in the exact same place as his last omelet. Here comes the essential meat of this story. Apparently customer service has gone straight down the toilet, especially at Houle's Family Restaurant. In the one minute in between the waitress picking up the plates, bringing them into the kitchen, and returning them back to the paying customers, an extreme travesty occurred. Someone had somehow scooped out the interior contents of both omelets, and pulled the old switch-a-roo. Kyle's new omelet consisted of the existing egg, filled with cold uncooked contents topped with a raw piece of cheese, similar with Sarah's. The new omelets looked like some kind toxic operation. No comments necessary on Jamie's scrambled caulking. 10:28am- Kyle picks up the two plates, carries them into the kitchen, asks the food be deducted from the bill, no hard feelings, they were just completely inedible. 10:31am- The owner, let's assume his last name is Houle?, comes out to face our table. He starts of his rant by claiming he's made 60 omelets today, and he's wondering why 2 were sent back from the same table. He also wonders why we will not pay for them. He's basically at the point of screaming at us, the customers. Kyle explains to him the contents of his omelet, and tells him to go look at them. He walks away yelling that he has never seen people so rude in his life. I decide to explain to him how local businesses are only successful by building relationships with customers. He won't have it. 10:41am- Followed by a state of confusion/shock, the owner returns. He wants to make sure that he didn't burn any bridges with us. Right. Shaggy adamantly explains to him that not only will he, but everyone he knows, and everyone he talks to will NEVER eat there again. Shaggy appropriately ends the transaction with something like "someone needs to teach you how to run your business."

My wife and I went to Frigo's today (a Saturday). I ordered the "Classic Italian" and she got the cream of broccoli soup. Suffice to say, my grinder did not look anything like the featured photo on Yelp. For the "Classic Italian", I was expecting quality Italian bread loaf. Instead, what I got was a small, spongey, insipid roll of inferior quality. The meats were pre-cut and rolled into a small "cigar" that went into the grinder roll. This caused the sandwich to be unbalanced: when taking a bite from the left side, I got some meat, but when biting from the right side, all I got was veggies and bread. The sandwich was a chore to finish and I only continued to stave off hunger. Overall, the quality wasn't great. I have eaten much better Italian grinders at lesser known establishments. My wife complained that the cream of broccoli soup had an overpowering flavor of onions. I tried and spoonful and have to say I agree. The one redeeming quality is that the food was relatively affordable, with the "Classic Italian" costing $10 and the cup of soup costing $3. Maybe other grinders or pre-made dishes are better, but after considering what we got, we will not be back.

I was very specific with what I wanted for food. The order was for : 1. Large pan of Lasagna ( very tastety). 2. Glazed carrots ( just a tiny bit too sweet) 3. Green beans almondine. ( not impressed. It had a lot of sliced almonds, but they weren't toasted!! And for me toasted almond is what makes the green beans taste soooo good!). 4. Pasta with scrimp and scallops in a creamy Alfredo sauce . ( Every one who had it loved it)! 5. Garlic mash potatoes, not impressed. A lot of the potatoes weren't fully cooked and they had absolutely no flavor. There definitely wasn't any garlic in them at all. A lot of my guests were unhappy with them as well. 6. Macaroni and cheese, you would think with such a simple dish how could it not be absolutely wondetful? I don't know what they used for cheese, but one of them was so sharp and bitter that I had to spit it out. Even my husband who will eat just about anything, he didn't want them. Literally only 2 guest liked it. One was my neice so I gave her the whole pan to take home! 7. Baked stuffed chicken . I had send out invites to 60 ppl so she wanted 3 trays of the chicken . When the final number was 45 she wanted me to keep the same number this was there was one for everyone . I didn't have a problem with that. The first tray of chicken was very dry and all of the chicken only had a very thin layer of stiffing. I was dissapointed with that. The 2 other trays of chicken were nice and moist. My other problem was I took home 24 pieces of chicken so in hind sight I think 2 trays would have been enough. Oh the chicken was flavorful just way too much to take home! We had a ton of left overs ! At least 1/2 of each tray Except for the salad , there was only another 1/20 left. They salad was really good! Very well proportioned everything inside. Overall though the food was pretty good except for a few items! Even though not everything was to my likings we all need to realize everyone makes dished differently . Some we like and others we won't . Also I think I could have been more explicit on how I wanted some of the items made. I would use this company if the need arose. Thank you to Julie and all her staff for a job well done!
