    Pain Killer and Mo Problems
    Katie E.

    Such a fun little Mexican spot right in the heart of Quincy! From what I've heard, this is one of the most popular restaurants in the area, and after learning it's from the same team behind nearby Dotty's Kitchen & Raw Bar (formerly the Townshend), it went right to the top of my list of places to visit. I had no trouble getting a res a couple of days in advance, but the place was packed and pretty small, so I imagine you might have a wait without one (especially with a big group). The space is cute and inviting, and all of the servers we interacted with were really great. We heard Pearl & Lime has a great cocktail program, and it didn't disappoint! I went with the Mo Problems margarita (nice balance of spicy with a little sweetness) and they even made an off menu Painkiller for my husband, which he was super excited about. For food, we went with the Chips and Guac, Ceviche, Street Corn, Al Pastor Quesadilla, and Carne Asada, Crispy Pork Belly, and Pulled Chicken tacos. I would order everything again with the exception of the Ceviche - in my opinion it leans on the coconut flavor a bit too much, so it's pretty bland and could use a lil something extra. The Al Pastor Quesadilla would be my #1 recommendation - so tasty and a bit more unique than the other items. I found the pricing reasonable too. Can't wait to come back and explore even more of the menu!

    A very decent Mexican restaurant in the area. Food is so delicious with great selection of mixed drinks. We used the InKind App for payments, which comes with some cash back, gift creditors, etc. Service is awesome.

    Al Pastor Quesadilla

    Friendly, welcoming staff, laidback vibe, and fun music playing but not too loud. I started off with a special cocktail (tequila, grapefruit, ginger, lime in a mule glass). The drink was icy, well balanced and strong - perfect. We ordered a few things to share: ceviche which was fresh & delicious (but could use a few more chips), the al pastor quesadilla, sweet potato empanadas & a shrimp and fish taco. Everything was great - and shareable. Just know the tacos are little street tacos - about 3 bites each.

    This is a great place to get drink with friends or for date night. I got the chips and queso to start with. It had a little bit of spice which is just how I like it. What I love about this place is the chicken birria tacos. Since I don't eat beef, I have a hard time finding substitutions for birria tacos but the chicken birria tacos are delicious. The chicken is juicy and perfect to dip with the broth. The staff was very friendly and offered up more hot sauces to try.

    Skullcrusher margarita served in a special glass just for me.

    The staff are exceptional, fun and always knowledgeable about menu offerings. The drinks are second to none and the food is always fresh and served quickly. Overall, this place is a blast.

    Strawberry Margarita and Mojito
    Christine L.

    Visited Pearl & Lime with my friend on a Friday around 6pm! We were seated fairly quickly but around 6:30pm it got quite busy as it took a while for us to flag down our server for the bill. We started with two drinks; a strawberry margarita and a mojito. The drinks weren't too strong; my friend said you could barely taste the alcohol in the mojito. The strawberry margarita was better than the mojito, but I think if I were to get a drink, I'd get something different. For food, we got tacos (barbacoa, crispy pork belly, and fish), papas bravas, and chicken tinga taquitos. I thought the tacos were on the pricier end since they were a bit smaller than a typical taco. I enjoyed the barbacoa and fish tacos but the meat of the crispy pork belly taco was tough and dry. My favorite was the papas bravas since the potatoes were crispy yet fluffy inside. The Roasted Garlic Aioli drizzled on top paired fantastically with the seasoned potatoes. Overall, Pearl & Lime is a cute local restaurant in Quincy Center to catch up with friends or have a small gathering! I'd come back here if I were already in Quincy Center (since parking can be tough around here). Would recommend giving this place a try!

    Popcorn Chicken - $11 as of 2/2023
    Bob L.

    Great spot for some delicious Latin food! Parking can be hit or miss so be prepared for that if you're coming during peak dining hours! Items we ordered (as of 2/2023): - Pearl and Lime Nachos - $12 - This was fantastic. Every chip was perfectly coated and the flavor combinations were phenomenal. Perfectly shared between 2 people! I'd get this again 100%. - Popcorn Chicken - $11 - These were perfectly friend and juicy on the inside. Really enjoyed the sauce that came with it. Again, perfectly shared between 2 people! For the tacos (prices are for ONE). - Guisada Taco - $5.25 - Nice beef flavor but nothing too noteworthy. - Crispy Pork Belly - $5.25 - Pork belly was very delicate. A favorite of mine and would get again! - Shrimp Taco - $5.25 - Perfectly fried and also has great flavor. Would also highly recommend this. - Fish Taco - $5.25 - Fish was very delicate and again, the flavors were on point. 100% would recommend. Overall I see why this place is so popular. The food is great and the ambiance is very relaxed. Will definitely be back in the future.

    Update: after speaking to the manager about the decorative garnish bowl that sits at the bar ( which patrons, talk, cough and yell over). He agreed it wasn't a good idea to have at the bar to then garnish customers cocktails with. Anyways, I come back for a second visit and the bowl is still there. Your cocktail could be cute and full of Covid. The food came fast but was extremely greasy. The shrimp and fish tacos were hard as a rock. I couldn't . One minute you have a 5 star experience and the next, a 2 star.

    Came here for the drinks, we didn't eat any food.  The service was great, the drinks were yummy!

    We came for the drinks, unfortunately did not have any food. The service was great and the bartenders were amazing.

    Ok for a drinks or an easy dinner. The food is not bad but the seats are a bit too crowded. Servers were friendly.

Super relaxed atmosphere and tv's, so it would be a great place to watch a game. Friendly bartender and the fish and chips was good. They also have pizzas that looked great. My friend had a pesto with burrata and she said it was awesome. They also have gluten-free pizza, whihc is good to know. Our table neighbor had the pork chop, which also looked great. They have a small parking lot, which would fill up quickly. We went on a very "off" time, so we were able to park in that lot. Otherwise, you'd need to find street parking.

We were seated right away at a table in the middle of the floor. Told that was best that could be done. Like eating in an aisle. After a few minutes we were asked if we wanted still water or not. Still, we said. Then if we wanted drinks, told her water would be fine. Service started to decline from there. Also no condiments come to the table, but water. We ordered bread and butter and a spice bag, but vegetarian. No bread today ran out. And no plans to bake anymore. We wait close to 25 minutes for our appetizers. Spice bag arrives and I had read rave reviews about this. Open it and its filled with chicken and french fries. Server grabbed it and told us, kitchen error. They would make another, be there in a minute or two. I asked would this show up with our entrees. No, be spaced apart. We waited over 15 minutes, it arrived. Was supposed to have cauliflower, peppers, onions and french fries. There was three pieces of cauliflower and no peppers or onions. What was there was tasty and well spiced. And as soon as we opened the bag and started eating, entrees show up. Fish and chips portions are huge and very nicely fried. Excellent crisp and fantastic steak fries. The Pizza #1, excellent tomatoed base and the crust had a good chew to it. I ordered the Beyond meat lasagna. Huge portion with a green salad and cole slaw. Cole slaw was creamy and very nice. Green salad was fresh but drenched in dressing. My fault should have asked for it on the side. The lasagna was disappointing. No seasoning, no garlic or onions or oregano. It was, I think a British version of lasagna. Ate about half could not eat more. No desserts, but drinks, tea and hot chocolate. Or I did not see it. Server apologized for the timing of the meals, the error with the Spice Bag and the lack of bread. She was sweet. Lots of sports being broadcasted, and a huge long bar. I would come for beer and soccer or football. If I wanted Irish bar food I'd be better going to the Burren. And parking is a challenge. They have a very small lot, we got lucky and found a spot. Hard pass on McGonagle's.

    Kilroy’s On The Square - The Winnie (Nashville hot fried chicken sandwich)

    Kilroy’s On The Square

    Oh yes, let's talk Kilroy's... during my visit home, my bestfriend and I were shopping as I…read moreprepared to fly out the next day and decided to do an airport outfit change. LoL. Understanding that we needed our bestie moment, I hopped on Yelp and searched for a "Good Chicken Sandwich" and at the top of the list was Kilroy's. As we were so close we decided to walk over as I could indulge in what the reviews were calling a "must-try!" Kilroy's sits on the side street, however it is super easy to find. The ambiance of the square as a whole puts you in High spirits as the street is lined with local eateries. Upon walking in, the ambiance is super chill and was perfect for bestie time. The design is simple, yet plays on the deep gray of the inside with colored accent lighting. The floor plan is open and presents the high table setup with the black table tops. As it was just us two, and the smaller tables were taken, we decided to sit at the bar. As soon as we were seated we were greeted by the smiling face of MaryKate. MaryKate welcomed us with excitement and truly set the tone for my Kilroy's experience. I told her that it was my first time and I was excited to experience the "5 Star Dive Bar!" We laughed as sge provided us with menus and proceeded to take our drink orders. As an avid Sweet tea drinker, I was hurt that they didn't offer sweet tea, however, MaryKate took a superior customer service approach and told me she could make sure I got my sweet tea... when she arrived back with my drink, her blend of unsweetened tea and simple syrup was spot on and I was in sweet tea bliss!! Scrolling the menu, the sandwich selection made it hard to choose as everything looked amazing. With a good chicken sandwich on the brain, I decided to order The Salem. The Salem consist of Grilled Chicken, Romain, Tomato, Bacon, American Cheese, and Chipotle Mayo on a golden toasted bun. I have One Word...WHOAAAAAAAAAA!!! The grilled chicken was perfectly seasoned and grilled. The chicken was tender, juicy, and had the perfect amount of char on the outside without having compromised the inside. The bacon was meaty and crispy. The level of crisp on the bacon provided as the perfect texture shift as it was layered between the chicken and freshly cut tomato. The chipotle mayo adds a flavor burst that heightens the sandwich and takes it from good to GOOD! However, even with all of that, we count discount the role of the bun. The golden toasted bun seals the deal as the buttery inside glued together all of the flavor profiles, while the soft outside entices you to bite deeper anticipating every layer of the sandwich from top to bottom. Oh yes, this is a chicken sandwich done right. Paired with well seasoned, golden crisp French fries, The Salem is a stand-alone champion as it makes you forget about the fries. LoL! However, the fries are def a main contender in the fight for taste bud attention. Overall, Kilroy's on the Square is my new go-to anytime I'm at my Bestfriends house. The Salem has the sun for now, however, I have my eye on The Wasp for my next visit. . Great food. Great service. Great prices. Great atmosphere. Great experience. Until my best trip to Boston, I'll dream of you, 'The Salem'.

    The bar staff has no idea what is going on right in front of their faces…read more The place feels like it runs on strife. The staff both appear and behave like they are doing the patrons some sort of favor. Even the air conditioning is weak. Been there three times too many and won't be back.
