[[HIGHLIGHT]]What a truly lovely place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wonderful staff. Interesting menu. Amazing food! We got the fried Pork belly as an appetizer. We liked it a lot. For our entrées, we got an order of the chicken Ramen and a Cubano sandwich that came with fries. Loved both! If I'm ever in this area again, I would definitely stop back. In fact, we might just go out of our way to drive three hours to come back to this place. read more

Stopped by for lunch based on great yelp reviews. So happy that we did. The food and service were excellent. Highly recommend the pork belly Reuben and the French onion ramen. We didn't try any cocktails but they have a well stocked bar and an interesting cocktail menu. Bonus is the municipal parking lot right next door. We will definitely revisit when passing through. Don't hesitate to try this little gem. read more

HTE accepted an order through DoorDash and also took payment for the order; then they waited until we were expecting delivery before abruptly cancelling the order with no explanation whatsoever. Extremely rude! read more

Killer gem. In a perfect location, when heading to-and-from a bunch of places. Everything was immaculately executed, like they have that just-perfect way of doing extra crispy home fries, and nothing is too heavy. Cocktails are solid, interesting and inexpensive. Great bloody marys and brunch. Legitimately interesting flavor combos that are part comfort food, part home style traditional. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I dislike places that are too basic or too... hipster-y? This place is neither--it's just cool and chill and on point.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They were playing old Toonami stuff on the TV and I would come here all the time if I was a local.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice attentive service, clean--all the good things.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They actually like their jobs I guess ‍ read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is beautiful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Best Rueben in my opinion. Service was great. Check the place out. Glad we did!

These taste buds have been wow'd yet again! This weekend specials fries whole belly clams with a citrus dill tartar Luis wanted the fries, I didn't argue for our entrees he went with the pan fried crispy haddock over milanese risotto, grilled asparagus, and dill caper butter. I went with the chicken parm Ramen, right? What a crazy fusion, but it worked and was delicious, I snuck some of the crispy haddock and risotto, which was perfect! Michael Arrastia and crew at Honest Town Eats killed it today! read more

Had the delicious Ramen. The pork was nice and tender, flavors on point. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This funky and artistic restaurant has great staff, full bar, and excellent food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Give it a try if you're near Southbridge, MA read more

I love everything about this place! They are so accommodating. If you have any dietary restrictions or you're vegan or vegetarian. Everything is made from scratch so if you don't want certain things listening on say the ramen for example they don't have to pick it out for you to be able to enjoy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The first time I went here, I felt instantly comfortable. The restaurant employees were so welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I love being greeted with a "hi friend (s)" I highly recommend visiting and trying some food or a drink. 5 stars! read more

Such a gem in downtown Southbridge! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice ambience inside - perfect for a date or catching up with friends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is very friendly. They always have weekend specials, which they post on social media. Their ramen is some of the best ramen I've had in Massachusetts. Their cocktails are also creative and delicious. Prices are pretty standard for dining out in today's age. And there is a parking lot next to the restaurant so you don't have to worry about the typical downtown street parking! Overall, highly recommend! read more

My husband and I stopped in for lunch while we waited to meet part of a rescue dog transport. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had a super nice waitress. We had been to Hangover Pub a few times before they closed. I had been hankering ramen. So I was happy to see they had a few choices of ramen on the menu. I got french onion ramen. Highly recommend. Plenty for 2 to share, or a nice hearty lunch/dinner. Hubby had the pork belly ruben. Very tasty. We will definitely be back. read more

What a hidden gem. We were greeted in a warm and friendly way. The menu had so many unique and creative choices. Our server kayene (hope i spelled it right) was a pleasure to talk with and his love for what he does shined thru, our cocktails were crafted with great skill and the flavors were truely a delught to us foodies. My friend and i found this lunch viait and our take out order to be a 10plus. Wish this place great success! read more

I have no pictures to share :( I was out with a bunch of friends and we were laughing and giggling that I lost track of my duties and shoveled my food in. I will say ... What a fantastic job on decorating from the longstanding breakfast shop this used to be. Loved seeing all the live plants and open, breezy vibe they created. Our waitress was attentive and nice. Sadly I don't remember her name. I ordered a crispy buttermilk chicken sandwich, it is thigh meat of which I am not a fan, but I gave it a go because the toppings along with pickled cabbage sounded fascinating. And I'm glad I did. It was DELISH!! And the truffle fries were equally yummy. All my friends were happy with their meals also. Bathrooms were nice & clean. I would go back again. read more

Delicious dinner. I had the Banh Mi. Sangria was yummy. Young lady handling the service was great. She was the bartender (and methinks an owner) with a great and unusual cocktail list. Really cute inside. Check it out. If I even knew where I was I'd go back (driving back from The Big E so literally no idea where we were). But you people nearby should definitely go there. read more

Food so good it's obscene! Amazing cocktails & the pork belly 'Rubin' is from another planet. This town continues to serve up some of the regions best food with a wonderfully personal atmosphere. We were iffy on what to order but our hosts expertly guided us down a path of culinary delights with recommendations that had us closing our eyes in ecstasy.

I've been dying to try this place ever since The Hangover Pub closed and the previous chef opened his own place. Unfortunately it was just meh. Went for Father's Day and obviously didn't look closely enough at the website because they ONLY serve brunch on weekends, no lunch. Thats on me, but I was really excited to try some lunch items and less enthused about brunch. Our wait time for food is one reason I had to dock a star. It took 25 minutes or so between ordering and getting our food and we were the only people in the restaurant. In fact, another couple came in, ordered, ate and checked out before we got our meals. My dad and bf got the fried chicken and corn cakes - they said the chicken was average, corn cakes were good but the sunny side egg was completely over fried to the point that the yolk was not even jammy, almost chalky like a hard boiled egg. They said the wait on all the food was because the corn cakes were cracked or something?? They did give each guy an extra short stack to take home, but none of that was necessary. This may have been why all the eggs in our meal were overcooked? It was a weird excuse but I was appreciative of their transparency about the wait. My dad's gf got the bacon, Brie and jam grilled cheese. She did say it was absolutely delicious and she went out of her comfort zone getting it. I was so happy she enjoyed it. My brunch ramen was just ok but again the sunny side up egg was completely fried hard. The broth wasn't super flavorful, the meats in it were fine, but overall it was just ok ramen. I also got an espresso martini that I will give a 10/10 on, very very good. I will be back - even though it's a far drive, I think they are just getting their footing and it's worth a second try for the lunch or dinner menu. I wouldn't go for brunch again. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Fantastic food and a cozy atmosphere- it's the kind of place I'd hope to find in a city yet it's just up the road and so convenient.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We went for brunch with high expectations based on reviews and word of mouth. Honest Town really came through with an experience that was welcoming and friendly. read more

This is a newer place that recently opened. They do not take reservations. So 4 of us went in at 6 o'clock on Saturday night. It probably took us about 20 minutes to be seated and then another 20-plus minutes to get our drinks, but the drinks were worth the wait! We had the cheeseboard as an appetizer and it was good. I had the Mediterranean salad special and I loved it - avocado, walnuts, chickpeas, feta cheese, and a great dressing! My friend had the mac & cheese and she said it was good. It looks more like a diner to me than a restaurant/bar. We were seated by the door, so it was cold every time people went in and out, but it was a neat spot and I would definitely check it out again! read more

I've been waiting to try this place for about a month now and finally stopped by today for lunch to go. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place looked great with all the new renovations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And the the young lady at the counter was very pleasant. I called in ahead and waited a couple minutes before my food was ready. I ordered the Cubano sandwich. It was tasty but had a bit too much mustard on it. I love Cubanos and no 2 are the same. $18 for a sandwich and chips was pricey read more

Really awesome food, everything we got was great! One bummer thing was they ran out of a 4 of the menu items we were hoping to try.

We came in fairly late about an hour before closing staff was super nice and welcoming. Food was amazing and we really enjoyed it. We ordered the rice bowl and the triple garlic with fried chicken 10/10 recommend. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The lighting was perfect and the decor is just so fitting and home like.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

friend and I stopped into this little restaurant at the recommendation of the people in my doctors office. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were pleasantly surprised with with the atmosphere. It was so open and cheerful. i loved the lighting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We sat at the bar very nice bartender made an excellent mai tai for me the best I think I've ever had. I had the most delicious Smashburger, I'm sure it must've been grilled over an open fire. My friend had a turkey club that was so huge and so beautiful. We really love the homemade potato chips. Our service was spot on the whole time. We were there. We enjoyed every second of it I am coming back with my friends, what a great find in Southbridge. read more

First of all, the food was amazing, but a little expensive. The main issue was the service. There was only one server working. Whenever we asked her for something, it never came, and we would have to ask her a second time before we got what we wanted. One example were beers we ordered. For some reason, she was the one who had to go pour them. Not sure why the bartender doesn't do this for her? There was a party seated near us, who got fed up waiting for their food and left. From the time we sat down to the time we left, it took an hour and 45 minutes. I also know that their chef who worked there and pretty much ran the place recently left. Perhaps this is why the food took so long. Even though it is small and probably holds about 30 people, they really need to have two servers working, especially on a weekend night. Will give it another try at some point, only because the food was so good. https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g41844-d27414578-r974047047-Honest_Town_Eats-Southbridge_Massachusetts.html# read more

Stopped in today with a business partner for a quick lunch. We ordered calamari as an appetizer. This was by far the most tender calamari I have ever had. It melted in your mouth, no chewy pieces whatsoever. I had the smash burger, per my usual, and it was great! My partner ordered miso ramen, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Service was friendly and prompt, and our meals were served quickly. If you're in the Southbridge area, check this place out. We arrived at 11:30 AM, to beat the lunchtime rush. This place has a very cool vibe! read more
