The carefully curated menu has all the classic breakfast and lunch staples - omelets, eggs, pancakes, etc, and for later in the day, soups, salad, sandwiches, pork chops, NY steak and even fried chicken! I ordered a breakfast sandwich with eggs over easy, and the bacon on the side, and everything arrived perfect and hot. Tender, crunchy, gooey deliciousness with the sandwich and bacon! The home fries were also tender on the inside with a delicate crust. Add salt if needed for that. I really liked how clean everything was here, and it was apparent that the owners take good care of their customers and establishment. Kudos! I'll definitely look to come back here next time I'm near!

We really wanted to like this cute restaurant. It is nicely decorated, the waitstaff was friendly,…read moreand the food was mostly pretty good. However, our party of four waited 50 minutes for our breakfast. Even coffee took quite a while to arrive. A canned coke was delivered 20 minutes after ordering. Three out of the four entrees were served after waiting for 50 minutes, the other one took an additional 5 minutes and we waited for another 5 minutes to receive the side. The food was mostly good - Omelet was chock full of meat and was delicious. Bacon was really good. Burger was average and fried chicken was kind of meh - crispy, but very dry. We did enjoy the live acoustic music. It was great to hear live music in the morning since most places only have it at night. However, the excessive wait for food really overshadowed the rest of our visit. Oh well.....

The item I wanted was not available, so I went with the taco salad . Neither looked nor tasted like a taco salad (bacon?), and the main ingredient seemed to be onions. Nice folks and I'd go again but get a sandwich.

I had the New Yorker (basic pastrami on rye) and it was tender and toasted perfectly. I also had a cup of their Turkey and Stuffing soup as recommended by the gentleman tending the register. Wow, it was awesome and unique. To finish it up, they have gigantic house made cookies that are freakin delicious. The staff is very friendly and go beyond just enough to enhance the value. Good prices, great food, nice people.

You have a great restaurant and a great foundation. Your pricing is there just need to better with the finish product.

We got chicken and shrimp spring rolls and pho. Everything was delicious. The actual interior of the restaurant is the only thing that's a little lacking. It's kind of dark inside and clearly very old. It's the kind of old that can never really look clean any more is how I would describe it. But otherwise it's a great spot and the pho truly hit the spot. Definitely want to keep getting take out and try their bun noodles next

Lemongrass chicken had some kick but I didn't taste any lemongrass and it seemed more like a generic chicken stir fry. Went for lunch and it seemed like the tice was from the previous day. It wasn't hot and fluffy. The pork chop rice plate was good. Decor represented the Vietnamese culture. Maybe I should have opted for pho.

I have been looking forward to finally visiting Calabrese Market. I heard a lot about it and…read moreeverything that I heard was true. I really wish they were closer to Boston! Upon arrival, we first noticed that it was a very clean and well organized store. Plenty of places to sit and a buzzing vibe with all sort of activities (phone ringing, orders being taken, orders going out, kitchen activity and lots of customers eating in) We arrived about 1pm so it was part of the lunch time rush. We ordered a cucumber salad, chicken panini with onions (I didnt realize that caramelized onions was an option!), The Green Goddess was delicious....with fresh veggies (spinach, mozzarella, ricotta and spinich with avocado and pesto) and incredible taste! Little Havana was our last choice and that included roasted pork, shaved ham, swiss cheese, pickles and dijon mustard. Again a big hit...delicious and some to take for later! We sat down and one of the tables and enjoyed our lunch and the incredible lunch crowd! Lots of drinks to choose from, as well. I am so glad that we made it here. I am a fan, for sure! 5 stars Parking- easy Vibe- just that good food feeling Price- fair...going rate Will I be back? Of course, next time I go to Saratoga or am out in the Western part of Mass! My comment: when you come across these types of places, it is a great feeling...the quality, the service, the choices, price and good people! Fantastic!

But here is the problem: the owner is clearly staying in the kitchen with their head in a hole and has no idea what customers are actually experiencing. The dining room was cold. Not comfortable. Not cozy. Just cold. My wife ordered something she didn't expect and didn't like, but no one ever came by to ask how things were. No one noticed. The waiter wasn't rude. He just wasn't attentive. Out of touch, not alert, going through the motions. We sat there in an empty, cold room with pre-poured dipping sauces in little plastic cups like we were at a takeout counter. its chintzy, For $50? Really? Here is the thing people need to understand: people don't just eat out to eat. They eat out to feel better about their lives. Even if just for an hour. Even if just to escape the kitchen and the stress at home. When the service is missing, or poor, or causes more stress than it relieves, it's not worth going back. No matter how good the food is. It was slow when we were there. So, it's not like they were overwhelmed. They just weren't paying attention to the people who actually showed up. I feel for the owners. I do. Running a restaurant is brutal. But if folks like us don't come back, and we won't, you're in trouble. Because the service element is like a note which says we want you back or we could give a****. The food alone isn't enough. You have to look up from the stove once in a while and see what your customers are going through.
