This spot has been on my "I should try that someday" list for a few years, and I'm so glad I…read morefinally made it in. The first thing that surprised me was how much seating they offer. The outdoor area is inviting, and inside there's a great mix of low-top tables, high-tops, bar seating, and cozy spots to settle into. Everything feels thoughtfully spread out, and I loved being able to see the open brick oven and activity in the kitchen. The space also has a bit of a bakery/café vibe, making it feel like a place where you could stop in for a quick grab-and-go item or stay awhile for a full meal. The staff made a great impression too. The people at the front were incredibly helpful to my guest, who was having some trouble with their phone. I also ordered one of the specialty drinks but asked for it without alcohol. The bartender absolutely nailed it--it was so good that my only complaint was that it didn't come in a bigger glass. For food, I had the grass-fed burger and fries (see photo), and it exceeded my expectations. The burger was so juicy and flavorful that I ended up cutting it into pieces just to make it manageable. Every bite was delicious. What I appreciate most is that I left feeling like I hadn't even experienced everything the restaurant has to offer. I already want to go back, choose a different seat, and enjoy a completely different perspective of the space. Honestly, it feels like the perfect place to spend a rainy afternoon. This is your sign, visit now!

I have to say the food here was phenomenal. I feel like the dishes were unique, but also delicious…read more The fried trout and duck drumlettes are a must get, the roti pairs so well with the prawn curry, and the fried okra is much better than it sounds. Their menu is small but it's clear that they work hard on making their dishes good. I've never had west African food, but if this is a good representation then now I'm in love. The service was also fantastic, very kind waiters. They offered every dish as allergy safe and were able to clear cross contamination (which is why I suspect our dishes took longer to come out but it was worth it). I'd get almost all of the dishes again except the pork chop (it was fine personally) and dessert. The restaurant itself is small so recommend making a reservation in advance. I think they focus on making sure the dinner is a good experience rather than rolling people out so there isn't that much space. Parking is street, and there's also some parking across the street. Overall, highly recommend checking this place out and would love to come back.

I think the way to go is getting a french toast or waffle to share and then a savory dish.

They're more than happy to help with a menu recommendation since there's a lot of good options it's hard to decide. For brunch they also have a full coffee/espresso drink menu as well as some pastries you can get at the table or to go. Reservations also available and parking isn't too hard to find on the street.

Perhaps I need to try some of their more innovative dishes, I would love to come back and try their shakshuka. At Milkweed, the service is quick and simple. We sat outside so can't speak for the inside ambiance but it was great getting some vitamin D in before winter kicks in.

For my main, I had the Steak Coulotte, again cooked nicely but reminded me of Brazilian meats, a little bland, more seasoning would knock this out of the park, the fingerling potatoes and asparagus were slightly underdone but not detrimental to the meal. My companion had a pizza, lovely dough, nice toppings but the sauce (which was also the side for the steak), tasted like a watered down Irish / British brown sauce, nice in small measures but wrong here. The waitress actually took it off the bill when she realized it wasn't going down well. You may think I've damned with faint praise, not so, all the basics were there, the chef just needs to tweak it up.

Little did we know, the rain would clear and it would be the most beautiful sunset ever. If you're looking for that - this is your place! The environment was buzzing with young Saturday night energy and it was really cool to be a part of. We sat down at our table and I ordered an iced tea. My husband ordered a beer to start. We spent some time chatting before we even looked at the menu, but our server never made us feel rushed and gave us time to look at the menu. We ordered a clam chowder to start. I ended up ordering the linguini with clam and my husband ordered the poke bowl. The linguini was absolutely delicious. It was a larger serving than I expected, but they provided a good amount of clams in it - which was great! My husband had never had poke before and admitted that it was delicious. This will be a recommended place when visiting Quincy in the future.

Actually one of the worst services I have had in a long time. We got there around 6:30pm and there…read morewas 6 of us so we put our name in and they told us it would be about an hour for a table. No problem, we grabbed a drink at the bar and stood outside on the railing. After about 45 minutes, we got a text saying our table was ready so we went up to the host stand (giving up our seats/stools at the railing), and they tell us the table is actually not ready and will be 30 more minutes. Annoying but it happens, we go back and our spot was gone so we debated getting getting another drink but we didn't think it was worth it. 30 minutes later of waiting, we get another text saying now our table is ready, we go up to the host and its not ready. Standing around for 10 minutes, we get put at a tiny table with 4 chairs, where we had to squeeze 2 extra chairs to accommodate our group. Already frustrated, our server/host never came over, someone in our party had to go back up to the host stand to get menus. No one came over to our table for at least 20 minutes, where what seemed like the manager, came to take our drink orders on his phone, not really particularly apologetic at all. We never even saw our server until we put our food in (at least 35 minutes after we sat down). We did not even get meals at this point because we were so annoyed with how long/unaccommodating everyone who helped us was. The apps we had were good but nothing special enough for how unfortunate the entire experience was. I am never one to ask to take something off the bill, but this was awful and they did not even take a drink or app or anything off. I don't see myself ever going back here.

This place has a handwritten note on the mirror that says, "Voted Best Restaurant in Southie for 4…read moreYears in a Row." After dining here, my thought was that it's probably because that's as long as they've been open. I have no idea if that's actually true, but that's just how good their food and dining experience is. The very first thing we noticed when we sat at the bar was how refreshing the water was. I immediately got excited for my meal because, as I told my coworker, "Any place that pays this much attention to the small details and cares about serving the highest-quality tasting table water, their meals have gotta be GOOWD!" And the award-winning tofu burger was just that. But equally impressive were the fries. And then the ginger butter and BBQ dipping sauces absolutely stole the show. They were so good that I found myself scrounging around, looking for anything left on the table to dunk into those uniquely layered flavor-packed sauces just so I'd have an excuse to consume a little more. Then came the literal cherry on top...or perhaps the cookie on top. The chef/owner made a surprise appearance at our table and blessed us with some unbelievably delicious cookies to cap off the night. What a joyous way to end an already fantastic meal. Moonshine 152 is the kind of place that gets the little things right, and those little things add up to a memorable dining experience. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Boston.

I thought the filling was too runny and they definitely had some heat. Fried chicken was definitely the only good thing. Problem is it's cooked in bad oil. The dirty rice was horrible. Tasted old and gave me wicked bad heartburn. Corn salad was weird. I'm not sure what it was, a sauce or something, but it just didn't go. The part that really bugged me was the staff. Not sure what was up, maybe cause it was Sunday, maybe cause it was close to the end of brunch, regardless it was unacceptable. The waitress we had was bitchy and fake. She kept making sly comments that showed her true colors. She just kept pushing us to order and rushing us, even with drinks. For the record, most people go out to have a good time and chat and slow down and enjoy. In our cause we were celebrating birthdays amongst longtime friends. The place was empty. Staff were setting up for dinner. What is the big deal? We sure as hell paid enough. And my friend tipped on the takeout. Come on. Ridiculous. The waitress coming on for dinner came over to tell us she needed our table at 5:30. It was 4:10...like come on. NEVER AGAIN. Please don't be fooled by everything good you read. Go somewhere else.
