It is rare for me to find a spot that keeps my palate this curious. The menu is is delcious and different - they use ingredients you just don't see everywhere, but it never feels like it's too much. Every time I visit, I end up ordering something different - and I haven't had a bad dish yet. The cocktails are expertly crafted. The service has been great (we sit at the bar). If you're tired of the same old menus at every other restaurant, go here. It's easily become my favorite reliable-yet-exciting neighborhood spot. read more

We've come here twice and ordered the following- First time for brunch: chicken and waffles, mushroom omelette, and a side of beignets. Overall, everything tasted great (esp the fried chicken and home fries) and the portions were massive to just right. If there were a few kinks to iron out, I'd say that the beignets weren't really airy and some of the mushroom stems in the omelette were really tough and should've been discarded before cooking. Next for dinner: their fried chicken dinner which came with Mac and cheese, collard greens/broccolini, cornbread, and the tempura hake, and a side of cornbread with pecan butter. That pecan butter was delicious, we definitely asked for more. The fried chicken dinner was also amazing, every single dish in it. The hake while crispy, didn't have enough salt. The server fixed it immediately with a side of garlic aioli and that was great. If I could make a suggestion, I would say they should swap out the celery root slaw for something that goes better with the fish. Service was excellent both times. Very friendly and accommodating, always asking if we enjoyed our meal and they were quick to make things right if we had requests. Ambiance is really nice, very warm, inviting, perfect for a sit down meal. Apart from a few kinks in their dishes (which I'm sure they can resolve), I'd give them 5 stars. read more

Excellent food. Friendly staff. Clean environment. Not too many restaurants check all the boxes. This one does. It's a bit on the newer side and while they continue to make improvements, there weren't any disappointments this evening. Sat at the bar to start waiting for friends and try a couple of their signature cocktails. I'm a huge fan of bourbon followed by tequila. There was a drink on the menu called, "Orange you Glad" that blended both. Too tempting not to give it a shot so I did. There's one shot of bourbon and a half a shot of tequila along with a quarter shot of banana liquor, banana liquor, green mango and lime.... spectacular. Four roses bourbon is the foundation making it an excellent start. There's not a huge choice of appetizers or entrées, but what they do offer is a nice variety with something you should easily find to your liking. We had two appetizers, the pickled veggies and the mussels. The pickled veggies were good, but the muscles were outstanding. Plenty of muscles to share. The sauce they were a part of was out of this world tasting. Of all the choices on the menu I actually went with the half chicken because it sounded so good. Many can make an argument that you can't screw up chicken, but few can make an argument when the chicken is outstanding. This was absolutely outstanding. Even the sides were amazingly good. If you're looking for a new restaurant and tired of the same old, same old, this one is worth your effort. read more

Few & Far - part of the specialty drink menu - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dedham, Massachusetts

1st time visit ... excellent food. Excellent and intelligent service. Cozy modern looks. I'll be back!!

Great service, perfect atmosphere and phenomenal food! Love that they switch up their menu and always have vegan options.

Food 6/10 Drink 8/10 Vibe 8/10 Service is the star here, they will take care of you well! Food is a fresh farm to table take on some upscale cuisine. A bit of a healthy alternative that won't satisfy everyone's pallet, but I can understand the appeal. Drinks are also very well balanced and each has a refreshing and complex component. The vibe here is warm and inviting within a nice and classy but casual setting. read more

We love F&F. They're always changing up the menu and offering new things. Wine dinners on Wednesday are phenomenal (great food and wine and price). Oysters on Tuesday and chicken on Thursday are yummy. Brunch is really good. Kids options are perfect - simple, good food at reasonable price - so I don't feel like we need to get a babysitter to come here. They even have an awesome take-home pasta deal. Definitely worth repeat visits! read more

We came in for dinner. The drinks and staff were good. The appetizers were cold. The fried chicken was raw inside. Not good

I love this place and love their different theme nights (for lack of better description) such as wine pairing dinners, fried chicken Thursdays...and the wine selection is great! The service is awesome so yeah, recommend this place and love it. read more

Nice little spot in Dedham town center that has a refreshing menu which is not overwhelming but is unique. The interior is simple and clean and the folks are welcoming . Service is pretty quick when it is not crowded . We started with the fried pickled green tomato and jalapeño mozzarella croquettes. Super fresh and delicious! I loved the jalapeno croquettes - they have the right balance of spiciness and cheese and went wonderfully with my peach bourbon cocktail. Next we tried the creste di gallo pasta -my husband and I shared it . It was fresh and delicious. We are not huge portion eaters and for us this was the right portion size to share after having appetizers. Overall we enjoyed it and will definitely visit again. read more

We came here on a Wednesday and the staff and service was so good, above and beyond. A really nice ambiance and environment for parties of all sizes. The beverage menu has a great selection and I was in love with so many options. The staff was great, letting me test or try different wines prior to ordering. The poutine was 10/10, if you are a vegetarian order without meat. They have a kids menu and coloring for kids which was really nice. Everything we ordered was spectacular and tasted so special. We ordered the fried chicken and burger. Each were spectacular. The chocolate dessert and cheesecake were great. There were zero leftovers or any food leftover on our plates tonight. Bottom line we will definitely be back to support this delicious small business, and you should as well. So excited we stumbled upon this gem read more

Came here for an anniversary dinner and left disappointed and hungry! Decor and vibes are pretty good but the food itself was not it. The poutine was flavorful but had large chunks of cut up sausage which texturally was kind of odd. The difference between what constitutes an appetizer vs a small plate on the menu was unclear and never explained to us. I ordered one of two pasta dishes on the menu and it came out severely overcooked. The gigli pasta was all broken upon presentation and the greens in it were full of stems. I've never been so disappointed in a fresh pasta dish before and it should have never reached the table if it wasn't al dente -- it was mushy. I had three bites, refused a box to take home, and was not asked if everything was okay. My husband ordered the burger and the patty was burnt on the outside and fully raw inside. Not pink (we love a medium burger!) but truly raw. The staff tried to celebrate our anniversary with an aperitif (after we paid our full bill) and told us not to leave. They also then came out with a scoop of raspberry sorbet to share with a candle in it. This was unfortunately the best thing we had there. The restaurant is attempting to make this right but I don't want to return. read more

Looking for something new (to us) and semi-local for a last minute Saturday night dinner. We were welcomed by a very friendly host to a cute pub-like interior. My husband can't have anything even cooked in alcohol and our waitress was fantastic about taking the menu to the chef to mark it up for him - definitely above and beyond. I can have alcohol so I started with a cocktail - the hummingbird. Perfectly balanced, not too sweet and beautiful. We decided to share a few things. First up the French Breakfast- raddish & taragon butter. Both of which I love but I think the dish would have been better served with a little toast and the radishes thinner. After that came the wedge salad (or their take on one) - which was absolutely delicious. The tomatoes were fresh, the beets gave it a fant sweetness and the dressing was light so it didn't overpower and let the veggies take front and center. Next up were the ribs - sticky, sweet, fall off the bone... perfect! And lastly, the F&F burger - yum! Messy, gooey cheese sauce, bacon jam, perfectly cooked - everything you want in a burger. We will definitely be back! read more

The service was fine. The atmosphere was fine. The menu is limited, overpriced, ridiculously esoteric and just a repeat of what always ends up in that space when one restaurant closes and another comes in. It's not what Dedham or the area needs. read more

Unbelievable food!!! I went for brunch on 3/28/2026 and they were serving the Fried chicken and waffles on their menu. It was beyond what I was expecting! The cornmeal waffle base was tasty and the chicken cleanly fried and soooo tender. What I was not expecting was the runny egg and the out of this world taste it added. And the proverbial cherry on the top was the pure maple syrup. On the side I got some of the cleanest and very well seasoned tasting home fries I've ever had! I also tried the Squash omelette with the drunken hooligan cheese. It was out of this world!!! The Service was great as it was Stan, the owner of Few and Far that served us. He was great, explaining to us everything we needed to know about what was on the menu and where it came from and we had a great conversation in the meanwhile. Very knowledgeable and friendly! The design and coloring of the restaurant is very warm and welcoming, giving off a soothing ambience. This place is beyond great and I will be coming here again and again and again..... read more

Been here twice now. Dinner and brunch. The ambience is nice and the servers are friendly. That said, the food really is such a disappointment. Everything sounds great but the execution is terrible. Undercooked beignets, over cooked chicken, overly salty potatoes (and I love salt). My steak ordered medium came out rare. I sent it back and came back out... still rare. I will say they comped three of the dishes we ordered due to our disappointment. So I give them credit for that. But man oh man they really need a new chef or should make the menu much smaller so as to execute it all better. We feel two times of trying it out was enough. Unfortunately won't be back. read more

Few & Far - Mushroom toast was so delicious - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dedham, Massachusetts

I went to this place two nights in a row, not on purpose but I'm glad I did. If I had written a review based solely on the first night it wouldn't have been fair as to how hard this team is trying to make the customer have a great experience. The first night I went with a group of girlfriends. We ordered a variety of things. The menu is interesting and has some unique offerings. Some simple things though we're not done well like the mussels or Mac & cheese. But other harder things like the fried chicken were amazing. (I do recommend going in on a Thursday for fried chicken!!!) candied bacon is also delish and the hunk of sour dough bread you get with that order is quite large. The white gravy on the poutine was rich and yummy. The mushrooms on the mushroom toast had nice flavor but were a little chewy. The pickled vegetables, including butternut squash (a first!) were interesting, and tasted good though they were not all the same tenderness. The waitstaff is lovely, super friendly, and helpful with the wine list and the owner is very appreciative you came in. They have a nice outdoor area that has just opened so take advantage of that. They need to iron out a few kinks in the kitchen or make some of the dishes a little simpler so they can excel more easily. It is a great addition to the town square. Def stop in if for nothing more then to have beer and bacon on the patio after work! read more

Few & Far, located on High Street in Dedham Square, offers tasty and innovative cocktails, craft beers, low-production wine, and farm-to-table dishes in an energetic, modern rustic ambiance. The somewhat limited menu puts an emphasis on simple and casual dishes made from locally-sourced ingredients. Given the focus on quality over quantity, there's aren't a lot of options on the menu, so it's worth checking in advance to ensure everyone in your party will find appetizers and entrees that they'll enjoy. My dining companion and I recently stopped in to Few & Far on a recent Friday night with plans to enjoy a craft cocktail and share an appetizer before heading elsewhere for dinner. We were quickly seated at the bar and ordered a pair of cocktails from the very knowledgeable and very friendly mixologist behind the bar. I started with the Castaway ($16), a tasty tropical combination of Tom Cat Gin, Dry Curacao, Pineapple, Smoked Cherry, Lime, Grenadine that reminded me of a rum punch, and my dining companion had a traditional Negroni ($16), which she thought was one of the best she's ever had. We also shared the very tasty Mezze Platter ($22), served with cold edamame salad, bean dip, cherry tomatoes, and marinated blistered Shishito peppers. Our server and the chef went above and beyond to accommodate my dietary restrictions by subbing out the cheese dip and making a fresh batch of the cold edamame salad without cheese for us. Yum! Really tasty! Given how much we enjoyed the cocktails and appetizer, we opted in for dinner. I had the Fried Chicken Sandwich ($20), a freshly battered and fried chicken thigh served with spicy maple glaze, miso mayo, and fresh cole slaw, with a side of freshly made potato chips. YUM! The chicken thigh was very flavorful and melded well with the glaze and mayo. My dining companion had the Braised Pork Pasta ($28), a hearty dish comprised of braised pork chunks served with artisan pasta and sauteed greens and topped with a robust tomato and parmesan sauce, which she really enjoyed. We'll definitely be back next time we're in the area! PRO TIP #1: Few & Far doesn't have its own parking lot, but there's plenty free parking in the Gonzalez Field municipal parking lot at the corner of High and East Streets. read more

I always walk in front of this restaurant but finally decided to stop in. Friendly staff, great service, good music and very clean, Few and Far is a great place to grab a drink or apps or for a date night. I had a really good beer while waiting for my mussels to go. Mussels was delicious. The broth was flavorfull and the sliced rustic bread was grilled to perfection which made it perfect to dip in the broth . I look forward to back and sit down for dinner good eats in Dedham MA. read more

Few & Far - Notch beer - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dedham, Massachusetts

A very good local restaurant with nice interior decorations. The inside is pretty spacious. It's best for small groups. If you are here with a large group, best make a reservation. They have outdoor seating as of August 2024. The food is indeed very fresh, and I think they are made to order. All their beer selection is from a can, not on tap. Free street parking after 6 PM right outside. There is also a parking lot across the street. read more

Some food was mediocre, burger was decent. Service left us a bit wanting but not the end of the world. Atmosphere is a little dark and dry. We decided to try it out because we got advertised to on FB. Gave them all my personal information for a $10 off. Went to redeem and it and it didnt work. Staff seemed pretty indifferent about it. It's only $10 so not a big deal, but the whole experience left me with a weird skeezy suckered kind of feeling. There's plenty of other great options in the Dedham square to check out, I'd put this lower on your bucket list. read more

First time to this place for dinner after the changeover and we were very pleased. 6 of us with 2 kids. Good view and ambience and pretty good service. We had the double dip and bread snack plates. Both were very good. I had the Jalapeño croquettes and the beets small plates as my meal. Both were awesome and the croquettes were very tasty and not too spicy. My wife had the steak which she enjoyed. My mom had the half chicken and it was great with flavor. My dad had the blue fish and as he expected for a bluefish, it was on the oily side (they seared it and served with corn and salsa). My boys had the Mac and cheese (which they liked and usually picky) and the chicken fingers (where I honestly was either starving or they were awesome as I had a bunch). The drink menu was also good. I had the Silly Goose which came in a tiki glass. My youngest son couldn't get over it. Would go back! Great for small group or date spot. read more

Service was great and I loved the idea of the menu as there were so many meatless options. The bread on the seitan sandwich was so tough I could not cut through it.

This restaurant has a ton of potential and I wanted to love it! Unfortunately most of the dishes were very bland and lacked flavor. The mushroom toast was fresh but extremely dry and flavorless. The sauce for the mussels was also very bland. I see a few others have said the same and I unfortunately agree. We did have a pork pasta dish that was very good and had enough flavor. If they make some adjustments, I would love to come back! read more

So we came here on a Sunday at noon, there was only about 9-10 people in the restaurant we waited roughly ten minutes to be waited as the waiter/bartender/bus boy said he had to clean a table. He came back and said the table was too dirty ? ‍and proceeded to sit us near the door. There didn't seem to be any heat working in the restaurant as there were several space heaters throughout the dining area. No soap or towels in the restrooms. After being seated for roughly 30 minutes and still hadn't ordered we left and went across the street. These days with the prices of going out to eat at restaurants service should be above and beyond expectations. This place fails on every level. read more

Amazing, vegan-friendly restaurant! Our server kindly highlighted the vegan menu options for us. Note that their menu items are always changing. The Smoked Mushroom Seitan was incredible. The texture reminded me of eating steak tips. The Wok-Fried Mushrooms had a very flavorful sauce. The Creste Di Gallo Pasta was full of flavorful herbs. Ryan, the chef, was accommodating and made a vegan version of the Charred Beet. Cutting into the beet was reminiscent of cutting into filet mignon. The blueberry sauce used for the vegan version was full of flavor. They had a raspberry sorbet for dessert, which was delicious. The mocktails were carefully crafted and tasted like real cocktails. The entire meal was satisfying and enjoyable and the staff was attentive and friendly. Highly recommended whether you're vegan or not! read more

I had dinner a few nights ago, the service and drinks from the bar were excellent, but the food and wine choices need improvement. - Cocktails from the bar were very good. I had the Consuela, it was great! - Craft beer selection could use some additions - Wine by the glass selection is limited, considering the owner also owns the bottle shop next door. I was disappointed there was not a larger by the glass selection. - Cheddar and Jalapeno croquettes were ok, they were missing something. - Steamed Mussels were sandy, the broth had a weird taste and felt watered down - Double Dips were good, but they don't make them... - Rolls were fine, crusty on the outside (they don't make them...) - Chicken was fine, some bites overwhelming with ginger - Gigli pasta was very good, but way too small. We order 2 of them to share between 4 people who also all had their own entree dish, we are "regular" sized people and finished all the food. I've lived in a bunch of major cities, while I think the food here was fine, the taste was too far off from the price point for me. - Very expensive for the portion size. You may leave hungry. I hope both the depth of flavor in the food and portion size improve to hit the bullseye for the price point. I would try it again in 6 months to see if things improved, maybe these are just some growing pains. ...no burger on the menu seems like a huge missed opportunity :( read more

Fun new place. Great edition to the neighborhood. Nice staff, good food and nice bar.

I've had dinner a few times here sitting at the bar. The cocktails are very good, the staff is nice and attentive and I like that they constantly rotate the menu. For appetizers I have tried the Jalapeno & Cheddar Fritters, mezze plate, tomato salad, and 3 dips. Of the four the fritters are my favorite and I didn't feel the others were special/ good enough for the price points. For meals, I've had the sea bass and one of their pastas (I can't remember what it was called but it was big, green and divine). The fish was good and the pasta was great. My friends have ordered various other dishes and drinks and have liked them all. I like this place and it's great to have a small independently run restaurant in Dedham. There are too many chains and this cozy farm to table is such a wonderful option! read more

Great experience with a family of four. I'm always nervous to take my toddlers out in a Saturday night and disturb dinner for others. The entire restaurant was so accommodating for my family. They had crayons and coloring paper. The waiter asked if we wanted to order the kids food early and i love that they have a menu with items that kids actually eat. I ordered the macaroni and cheese for my son. It was real cheese sauce, not Kraft Mac and cheese or the poor quality food typically given to kids at a restaurant. My picky eater ate every bite. Our waiter was very attentive. I ordered the hihi highball. It was great. Had to order two! We lucked out that Family canceled. Looks like a place where reservations is a safe bet. We just happened to be in the area shopping and wanted a quick bite. My husband had the chicken sandwich. Standard sandwich. I had the pasta with braised pork. Interesting dish. Overall, a great experience. My kids never had a chance to get antsy because of the speed and quality of food. As we were leaving a woman helped my son with his coat. Turned out it was a bartender. Just speaks to how nice everyone at the restaurant is. Forgive the grammar and spelling. I wanted to leave a note while it was fresh read more
