I'm…read moreassuming the owner was the lady who came to tell me it was reservation only and there was nothing they could do. I was heart broken but it was my own undoing as I djdnt make a reservation. Just as I was opening yelp to find another place to try she came and got me from outside as a spot opened up! That's service! And I won't forget it. All the staff was very kind and she checked in with me several times during my meal to make sure it was going well. The ambiance is a little noisy but it's a raw bar that has sports on. The food is delicious. I could have eaten the Cippino forever! The broth was a complex delicious and perfectly spiced tomato base. The seafood was plentiful and large sized. I have never seen shrimp so big! I also ate oysters and had an amazing home made peaches and cream cheese cake. Listen I don't really like cheese cake but I could eat that cake everyday for the rest of my life. Everything from start to finish once I sat down. Was delicious and the staff was very kind. This food was fired fresh in the kitchen. I could see if from my bar seat. So if it took a little bit it was worth it! I'd eat here the next time I'm in Manchester 10/10

Staff appeared uninterested and inattentive, and we had to repeatedly ask for basic items. The food did not justify the prices at all. The seafood was overcooked, lacked flavor, and did not taste fresh. Portions were small for what you pay, and the presentation was careless. Overall, this restaurant is overrated and did not live up to expectations. I won't be returning and would not recommend it unless there are serious improvements in both service and food quality.

Hi, We have been to…read morethis restaurant 6-7 times. We had a great time every time we went to IZUMI! Saturday was a disaster! We felt ignored. The Mai Tais took forever to arrive. The Chef was funny and talented BUT he over cooked everything. The eggs had burnt around the edges when he folded them into the rice. The rice was overdone, dry and had too much butter added to it. But the biggest disappointment was the rare filet mignon we ordered was also over done. PLUS i did not think I was Filet. It had sinew in it like run of the mill sirloin. How did I know? My father in law is a butcher and the meat just was not up to par. For 4 adults it was over $200 and the first time none of us took leftovers home. So disappointed!

They had been here before and wanted to try the smash burgers. I'm a fan of seafood so I ordered the scallop plate. At only $18 I wasn't expecting much. We placed the order and made our way to the restaurant where it was already all set for us! The cashier who checked us out was friendly and the building itself was nicely decorated and spacious. It was busy for a Friday night but not jam packed. When we got home I noticed that they forgot my tartar sauce- a bummer. But the food itself more than made up for the momentary disappointment. The portion size was huge for the price! There must have been atleast 16 scallops in there. Even though we ordered take out the food was still nice and crispy. The batter was excellent and the fries had a great crunchy coating. I would highly recommend Fish and Chix to anyone in the area. It may seem unassuming but the food quality and portion size is amazing! I'm happy we stopped by and will ask to go again.

Honestly do not know much about the area, but it was easy to find off 93 and plenty of parking. Stairs and a full ramp to access the front. Not huge, set up more for take out and maybe delivery. But they do have some tables and we were able to put two together and all sit. They had a large tv playing cartoons, so the kids were entertained while we waited. Great menu options for adults and kids. Sandwiches, wraps and salads were our focus, but they did share they offer an incredible seafood menu. Maybe next time. The food was fantastic. Perfect for our group. The onion rings were a huge hit and the fries were crispy and not mushy. My Italian was loaded with everything and worth every penny. A family business it seems and they all were so pleasant and nice to talk to. They even gave me a recommendation for a park to take the kids. Not to go into the details, but this meeting was a bit emotional for me and the mom but worked here and I greatly appreciate it. Thank you and see you soon

East Side Grill (formerly Hong Kong City) is now open on Page Street between Candia Road and…read moreHanover Street. This casual takeout restaurant was redone nicely which is order at the counter or online with a few tables and flatscreen TV in the dining area. They offer sandwiches, wraps. hot & cold subs, burgers, gyros, salads, fried foods, wings, chicken rice soup, spinach pita, pasta dinners, seafood (fish & chips, haddock, calamari, shrimp, scallops clams), kids menu, cooler drinks, and dessert items (baklava, cake, tiramisu). The pricing here is pretty reasonable. I stopped by East Side Grill after work for takeout. I ordered the Eggplant Parmesan Dinner ($13.95 plus tax) with side salad and roll & butter and Fried Calamari ($17.95 plus tax) with spicy fries, side salad and roll & butter. I also used a $3 off $30 purchase coupon (covered the meals tax). My order was all set to go in about 12 minutes and I headed home to enjoy. The portions of food were pretty good sizes. The side salads had fresh romaine lettuce, green peppers, carrot, cucumber, tomato, red cabbage and Ken's salad dressing packets on the side. The soft rolls were chewy. The Eggplant Parmesan had thick breaded slices of eggplant topped with melted cheese & parsley over soft spaghetti with a zesty marinara sauce in a rectangular foil container. The firm calamari (rings & tentacles) had a golden breading and the golden fries were coated with Cajun seasoning, tartar sauce on the side. I saved some leftover food for some of my lunch and dinner the next day. I would definitely stop in again soon since this place is literally on my way home.

We got the clam plate. It's enough for two. It has a generous portion of clams and fries. It's served with coleslaw, tartar sauce, and ketchup. The clams were very good. The fries were your standard steak fry, typical of a clam shack. We wanted to try their homemade chowdah, but unfortunately, they were sold out

I will definitely be ordering again!! I can't speak to ambiance, but I am sure it's lovely. I can't wait for next time! Such a treat! Don't mind the picture- I didn't want to even take the lid off before I took it. So well packaged!!

It's not authentic Japanese, it's an interpretation of Japanese by Chinese workers and Cooks. Also, Chinese service isn't great and the waiter here isn't attentive and a bit too casual for my taste. The food itself is just acceptable, and for the price not great. The atmosphere also still is pretty weak, and the restaurant is small. It's sort of almost like a hole on the wall. On the West Coast, I've eaten at over 30 authentic Japanese restaurants, and for those of you who aren't Japanese restaurant or sushi aficionados... This food is probably fine. If you know we're good, Japanese food is, don't come here and frankly you may need to drive to Boston to get it.

They simply won't suffice elsewhere. 2) prepare to come hungry! 3) the restaurant is called Backroom for a reason. Make sure you go to the back of the restaurant ;) My husband and I were STUFFED by the end. He got the tender sampler - and I got the buffalo chicken tender entree. Complimentary bread (with my entree?) + soup du jour or Greek salad + entree and choice of potato (fries, baked, mashed, etc.) The tenders tasted SO fresh. Breading didn't slide off the tender and the batter was just right. Everything melted in your mouth. We also decided on the chocolate cake (with a scoop of almond coconut chip ice cream) it was so creamy and fresh tasting! Our server was incredible - didn't miss a beat and was so friendly. The colonial-diner vibes inside were also their own special touch. It was quite loud and pretty full - but a ton of seating. A note: your party won't be sat unless everyone is present.
