After we visited another landmark diner in Worcester a few weeks ago we decided to try The Parkway…read morediner on Shrewsbury Street, I've literally drove past this place hundreds and hundreds of times in my lifetime and I had never been here. We visited on a Monday morning around 10 am and I thought for sure I was going to a diner. Nope. There's a diner there, but you go in a door next to the diner, I could see the empty diner as I walked by (see picture), but you're pretty much going into a barroom that serves breakfast (see picture). There's a bar with seating around it and a bartender/server behind the counter and all the liquor on shelves. My first thought was it smells like someone has been smoking in here. We grabbed a high top and our server came over with menus and we ordered shortly afterwards. I ordered my usual eggs over easy, corn beef hash, home fries and wheat toast, my husband ordered as omelette and home fries. Our meals were meh, the home fries were dry af and the corn beef hash was un memorable. This is a pretty popular place and we were trying to figure out why? We decided it has to be that they serve alcohol. As we were leaving my husband mentioned the stank of cigarettes so I knew it wasn't only me who could smell it. I gave the stars for the service as I wouldn't go back.

Looked nothing like one of the pictures I saw on Google reviews so I'm thinking they may have just ran out of ingredients yesterday. Even just the restaurant itself was pretty gross. Sticky floors, dirty plates and silverware given to us, dirty bathroom. Definitely won't be going back.

The steak tips were wayyy overcooked - we asked for medium and it was very well done. Same with the burger - very overcooked. The fries were very obviously from frozen. The mozz sticks were way too big. here are the tips to make this place way better: better cut of meat, don't overcook the meat. The burger neeeeeds a sauce! FRESH fries - from a potato! and make the mozzarella sticks less thick. Everything needs to be homemade... that's what makes customers coming back. Drinks were good but veeerrry sugary - make them not as thick... fresh & light is more like it I hope this place survives and takes my advice - it would only help!

The Woo is one of my favorite restaurants, especially when it's a nice day to sit outside. We were…read moreat the Woo recently and didn't have the amazing meals we usually do. We both enjoyed our usual appetizers...my husband loves their chourico sausage app and I love their nachos. I usually always get the eggplant parmigiana which I love, but I switched it up and got the chicken Caesar wrap which was just okay ( and a little dry). My husband got the pasta with chicken and broccoli and although it looked amazing it was really really oily and tasted like they just poured olive oil in it, he always finishes his meals and helps me with mine too. This was the first time my husband didn't eat his whole meal. We'll come again, but we'll definitely stick with our usual favorites next time.

I'm staying up on the hill at the Vida. So it's a 28 min walk from there. All downhill one way. All uphill the next. It's a Tuesday night and they were packed at 6pm. I'm here by myself so I was able to grab a spot at the bar. Easily found one and got a menu quickly. It was loud when I walked in but surprisingly quiet on the opposite side of the bar. I told the bar tender I was caught between two dishes and she helped me pick. The Turkey BLT. I also got the crispy Broccoli because it looked like something I couldn't just get anywhere. Both were great choices but a ton of food. The broccoli was super sweet with a little wasabi after kick. The turkey BLT was thick cut turkey breast not overshadowed by the bacon. A lot of times a BLT is just assuming that you just want a bacon sandwich. Not this one. I'm not supposed to have bacon so I have to remove it. It's a shame when I'm out traveling I don't get to share these experiences with my wife. I'd love for her to try this place.

However we were seated at a large, awkward table in the back of the second floor area where a door was open to an outdoor patio area. The temp was in the high 50's and since we were very cold we asked that they close the door to the outside or reseat us. Initially a cocktail waitress said (rudely) that closing the door was impossible because it would make it hard for her to get in and out. Eventually a manager type of guy came over and closed the door. Fine...except college kids were going in and out the door to the outside patio area every few seconds so we continued to freeze. Complained again and asked to be moved...nothing! Eventually and mercifully we finished our dinner and were ready to leave. The snippy and sassy cocktail waitress continued to go in and out the door making sure that she opened it widely each time, and sneered at us every time. On our way out I complained to the general manager and he said "sorry" but didn't acknowledge that we asked to be reseated and we were just ignored. This place is packed all the time so I assume they don't care about one disgruntled table of 5, still, you should know that if the weather is chilly don't let them seat you anywhere near the outside patio...you'll freeze and they won't care.

In looking at the menu I really could not decided because all the burgers sounded amazing! I ended up ordering the Phenomenal Burger which has bacon, smoked gouda, fried egg, frizzled onion, sweet chili ranch all on a brioche bun. I arrived about 20 minutes after ordering. I walked into the beautiful red brick building where The Fix is located. The restaurants overall ambiance was very welcoming- The staff just as nice! This is not just a 1 review kind of place- The Phenomenal burger was SO GOOD that I went back the next day and had The Stark Burger which had 2 (1/4 patties) with double pepper jack cheese, red onion, thinly sliced jalapeno, bacon, chipotle mayo on a brioche bun! The Stark was just as good (in different ways) as the Phenomenal Burger- both were cooked to perfection! I will absolutely be back- because there are a number of burgers I still need to try......If you are in Worcester, MA and in the mood for a burger- be sure to put The Fix Burger Bar on your "must try" places.
