I love stars and have be coming here for years. Love the new renovations. However, I am very disappointed about the items removed from the menu recently. Including the bow tie pasta, Kobe burger, and no longer being able to get salmon on the salads. read more

I've been here a couple of times.. most of their menu is or can be Gluten Free and it's so yummy!!

Our favorite breakfast spot on the south shore- hands down! The wait is never too terrible and you can see everyone's hustle to get people served and back on their way. The food is outstanding and we love that it has gluten free options too. The gluten free pancakes are amazing. The cheese ball tater like things are also amazing- can't remember what they are called (not gluten free). It's also a great spot for kids. read more

Stars on Hingham Harbor offers a unique blend of high quality breakfast, lunch, and dinner, in a very informal atmosphere. With all of the meals prepared fresh by highly trained cooks, quality is a must. Everyone there takes pride in what they do from management to the dishwashers. For breakfast I would suggest any of the omelets with the sweet potato home fries. For lunch, how about a cup of their homemade clam chowdah and the pesto chicken sandwich with freshly battered onion rings. And finally for dinner, I would have to recommend the seared scallops over butternut squash risotto. Okay, okay, you caught me....I work there!!! See you soon!! However, there are plenty of specials all day long from which to choose, so allow your pallet to lead the way! Enjoy!! read more

We have been going to Stars for years but I think its time for a makeover. It has really been going down hill. The place is getting dirty and dark (especially the bar side) and the parking sucks. Many tmes we have decided not to go there just because we couldn't find a place to park. The food and staff are not what they use to be. We feel like it got all kinds of great reviews in the past so they just decided there was no need to try hard to please people anymore. read more

We eat here on a regular basis. Our service has always been fantastic and friendly. The food is delicious. It's kid-friendly​. We love it. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner options are all excellent. We came once with a large group over 10, and the service and quality were the same as if it were only 2 of us. read more

We were visiting from Ga and stumbled upon this quaint little restaurant. Well, I have to say it is Absolutely the best breakfast I've ever had! You will not be disappointed!! read more

I've been going here for years,used to love this place and would of loved to give them 5 stars, but after the last experience I might not even go back! Food is good,view is awesome,prices not bad but (maybe it was just the shift) the service was HORRIBLE! Waitress was slow and someone please get the hostess a pillow,she does nothing besides talk to fellow workers. The young manager or shift leader was even worse,a waste! Did Nothing!! All he did was talk to employees the whole time my party was there. Having a young shift leader and young workers not doing their job is not a way to have customers return! Also a few of us loved the Sheppards pie,not on menu anymore. A side note not happy they didn't have any father's day specials, my dad. Was disappointed! I know it's corny I watch the restaurant shows on tv,but some would shut them down with the crappy old furniture. Our booth was falling apart. Stinks cause I always bring my dad here and I recommend this place but NO MORE! read more

Went here for dinner/snacks/beers on many occasions. Usually warm summer work days where baseball was on the tv and I needed an escape. Loved the atmosphere here, the people were friendly, the views inside and out were great, and the food and beer were fun and unique. Can't wait for it to be summer again :) read more

Stars, a great place for an off-beat sandwich and a different beer each time. I f you manage to get a space in the parking lot (good luck...that's what they made bumpers for) you'll find a cozy atmosphere, plenty of action, and iffy service. Food's cheap, beers are big (they serve Magner's cider...yummy!) and they always have the game on. A perfect place to meet friends. read more

I have been here quite a few times. Over the years the place has gone down in quality quite a bit. The silverware appears too frequently be dirty. The food was alright. And there appeared to be something green in my glass of water. Thinking I'm not going to be going back soon. read more

I really like the food here and get take out once in a while, but this is never a really comfortable place to eat. It's always too cold at Stars, and people are always bumping into each other. Great food though, and excellent menu. read more

Like many others, I really WANT this place to be better. The prime real estate overlooking the water, right off the busy road, close to the cute downtown...but it falls quite short. My husband and I had driven by multiple times and finally stopped in with a family member on a Saturday for lunch. There's not too much parking in their small lot, but it was not hard to find free street parking right down the block. No biggie. As soon as we walked in though, I was a little worried. Any time a restaurant has carpet everywhere, I'm a little worried. Ewwww. Come on, carpet? I worked at a restaurant and mopped floors nightly. I know how gross floors can get in 1 day at a restaurant. I can only imagine how disgusting that carpet is. Yuck. BUT we were all very hungry so we decided to stay. The "host" or whatever he was, barely made eye contact and mumbled that we would be taken care of in a minute (ok, maybe he wasn't the regular host, but it seems like small place, teach everyone to smile, make eye contact and say "hi, how are you?" geez). We got escorted by our very friendly waitress to our table, which was the back corner booth...Oh boy, this thing was like a trapezoid, it wasn't even square and the seats were hard and lumpy. Come on! Aren't booths supposed to be comfy? Good thing there were only 3 of us. The food was all fine, nothing great, nothing awful, but nothing stood out at all. I thought lunch was a bit overpriced, especially since it was nothing special. I'd be willing to pay that much if things had a little flavor / visual interest. The wait staff was very friendly, maybe just a touch slow, but we weren't in a rush so it didn't bother us. I really wish this place could make an effort. I feel like they've just given up. It could be an amazing place with lines out the door if they just stepped it up! C'mon people! Here's what this place could do to make a good upgrade: - 1: Upgrade/edit the menu. I was only there for lunch, but it was all pretty blah. Give things some flavor, plate things nicely. Throw in some lighter lunch options. You could even pare down the lunch menu to make it smaller and simpler, a million options aren't necessary. Quality over quantity. - 2: Makeover the space! Paint is cheap. Everything felt dark and sticky and a little sad. The dark paint colors, disgusting carpet and sad, messy bathrooms just need some help. You're right by the ocean and I know it's cliche, but how about some light, airy colors? Medium blue wainscoting, light sandy beige walls, wood or tile floors would do a world of difference. Oh, and make the booths comfortable. -3: I mentioned them above as far as decor, but put someone on bathroom cleaning duty every hour. Make them check it off on a sheet in the kitchen or in the bath. I worked at a restaurant, it's not that hard to do a quick sweep/check of the bathrooms. Messy bathrooms (a public space) really make me wonder what the kitchen (a private space) looks like. I hope this place wakes up. I want it to be the place that it looks like from the outside. It looks so cute and beachy from the outside! I imagined comfy, family-friendly service with hometown pub food as well as some light options. I know they could do it! Make Hingham proud! read more

I've come here twice now - once in the evening and once for breakfast. I arrived around seven for drinks and apps. The bar was packed which must be a good thing. The tables in the dining room were filled with families, couples, etc. I grabbed a seat in the corner of the bar for a bit and ordered a cosmo while I waited for friends. The cosmo was on point - a clear pink. My friends arrived and we were able to get a few more seats at the bar as a couple of locals took off for the night. I tried the tater tots - amazing, the buffalo flavored rangoons- I don't even like buffalo anything and I liked those, calamari - as expected. It was all good. For breakfast I came in on a Thursday. It was great, but hey you have to be really bad to mess up breakfast. They also have the awesome tater tots for breakfast. I had a Hingham Sunrise, an excellent alternative to a mimosa or Bloody Mary. The same manager was there each time and she appears very attentive and treats her employees well. read more

Not sure why I've waited so long to write a review on this gem! We moved to the area about 3 years ago and stumbled upon Stars by accident and it quickly became our regular spot. It may not look like much on the outside, but the food makes up for the appearance. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all delish, i've never disliked a meal from here. Big portions and tons of variety. Good drink and beer selection. But seriously, go for breakfast. The cinnamon toast is no joke. The parking lot is very small, but there is a huge lot just around the corner so don't let that deter you from stopping in! read more

Used to be a one-of-a-kind place, wonderful food and atmosphere, but its been sliding downhill for years. The food has become sub-par, nothing you can't get at the 99 Pub, with service somewhere between inattentive and downright inadequate. Last time we went, we couldn't even get drinks that were acceptable - first it was a gin and tonic that was completely flat (memo to bartender: the lack of bubbles in the tonic is a bad thing), followed by a beer that was every bit as a flat (memo to bartender: ditto). I doubt the management of Stars reads these things, but if they do I really hope that they do what needs to be done to bring this place back to its former condition. read more

STARS is a truly great restaurant! Right on Hingham Harbor, the food, service and location are all perfectly wonderful. I've never been disappointed and always delighted! Only drawback is that parking can be tight especially at peak times. Five stars to STARS! read more

Oh yay! This place was DELICIOUS! Long Friday nights lead to procrastinating Saturday mornings which means we missed breakfast by 2 hours. I really needed a Benedict. Regardless, three of us split the buffalo chicken rangoons, steakbomb spring rolls, and mac n cheese. Then two of us split the Reuben. Let me say that all that grease??? Yeah. It was delicious and very necessary. I'm a super fan of this place. Here's hoping I can actually make it to breakfast one of these days though. read more

For somewhere that has such a wide variety of international beers, it pains me to only give this place two stars. Yet, two stars it is because the food is just plain mediocre. Despite its primo near the water location, every other thing about Stars isn't very star-worthy. In fact, if it's a star at all, it's D-list right next to Kathy Griffin. We ordered fried calamari that came smothered in a "sweet & spicy" sauce that was so thick it completely obliterated any ounce of crunch. (I ate it anyway.) Then came a cuban sandwich with sweet potato fries that were bland and tasteless, even after the addition of salt (I ate that anyway too.)The menu is generally family friendly with lots of classics; this may account for why every toddler in Hingham was present this past Friday evening. Also, the portions are gigantic, so if you're a quantity over quality person it's a good bet as most peeps will be able to get more than one meal out of a dish (I ate my whole dish and in retrospect am ashamed.) Be prepared to park and walk since the parking lot at Stars is a major joke; it does wrap around the back, but it doesn't help much because half the spaces are taken up by junior leaguers that have parked their Escalades crooked. Also, be a lover of children as any one of the multitudes of suburban rug rats will probably throw food in your direction at least once. read more

Went in on Tuesday night w a gal pal, and it was about 20 degrees and the place was completely dead. We made our way to the bar for some drinks and dinner. My friend was impressed with their big selection of bottled & draught beers, and I found a grape soda cocktail for myself. We started off with some chicken nachos, pretty good but slacking on the cheese. For dinner mylady had the cubano and i had the portabella mushroom sandwich. Both were good, but the real star was the side for my sandwich.. bacon cheddar tots. These were serious.. bacon bits, then cheese wrapped around them, then.. deep fried. WOW they were so awesome. They also serve them as an app, and i highly recommend! Bartenders were friendly, and attentive. Will be back for more tots and with friends who like a good beer selection. read more

Let me explain this 2 star rating is supposed to be a wake up call for Stars. I have been coming here for years, and lately it has been a very hit or miss experiences with all three mealtimes. My last experience was with dinner, and it was not good. Service was initially slow (waited over 15 minutes to actually get my drink), beer was flat, Gin and tonic was flat, wine glass smelled like cleaner, salad was missing ingredients, and overall food was just OK. It has been so much better on other occasions, and I really want it to be good, since I live close by, and the prices are reasonable. Please, Stars, IMPROVE, clean up your act. And one more thing - get rid of those grimy vinyl tablecloths. They are ugly, and a clear tabletop would clean up better! read more

Took my children to breakfast, food and service were good. A bit of a surprise to learn that they charge for "to go" containers...really! Thought that to be very petty! Waitstaff stated many customers have complained about this, so I too mentioned this to the manger who said no one had ever took issue with this in 20 years which obviously was NOT the truth. I guess it's the principle of the matter. Just don't feel being charged extra for a tin container to bring home half a pancake after spending $40 on breakfast for myself and 2 kids is warranted. Pretty lame policy if you ask me. read more

Best steak and eggs! Also, best fish tacos on the south shore. I'm probably at stars with my family 4X a month.

I have been coming to Stars for a long time as I grew up in Hingham. Today, I came with my family dos brunch. We were able to get a booth quickly. The weekends are a different story, can be busy and have a wait. The coffee was good. I got the New England omelet without the ham. It has bacon, sausage, onions, peppers and American cheese. I swapped the home fries for the bacon tater tots. My dad and I split a single blueberry pancake. The food was fabulous. They were accommodating of my sister's and mom's gluten allergy. Everyone enjoyed their food. The waiter was MIA a little. That was the only downside. read more

My cousin who is a local and a professional chef said this was a local hot spot because the food was great. We didn't Yelp it and just took his expertise advise and I'm glad we did. The wait was about 20 mins on a Sunday morning but so very worth it!!! We all got eggs and we were all very pleased with the food, the service and the cleanliness. You won't be disappointed, it's a definite must if you are in the area! read more

I could write two separate reviews on he his place because they are open for breakfast lunch and dinner, but they would boh be in the five category so let's save time. Best breakfast in town. Coffee is not overly exquisite, there's better across the street, but the service and breakfast food is great. I've come to love the homemade hash breakfast. Hash is serviced warm and not diluted by potatoes. Supper at Stars is very family friendly and offers a good solid choice of selections. I would set this place as a must try, and a staple of the community restaurant read more

I had remembered going by this place for years when heading to the beach. I recently had the opportunity to try it. If you are looking for a nice decor/atmosphere, you will not find it here. Everything in here is so completely out dated. I ordered the Rib-eye steak medium. This poor steak was so overcooked. Normally I would have sent it back, but my girlfriend and I were pressed for time in heading to a concert that night. Not recommended. read more

I ordered their "Texas Ranger" french toast with apple sausage & a side of hash browns. The french toast tasted like - NOTHING. They made it out of ordinary sliced bread and the egg didn't even soak all the way through. Absolutely no taste! What the??? Sure, price was reasonable, but not for no taste. If you want a good brunch, this is not the place. What a waste of carbs/calories. Would of been better satisfied at McDonalds, or stay at home. Don't waste your time here... read more

Went here yesterday for a late lunch/early dinner and had a pretty good experience. For the app we got the steamers. They were pretty good, and you get a good amount. I ordered the 1/2 fried clams + 1/2 fried cod with fries, cole slaw and tarter sauce. The cod was great! I liked the good amount of onion rings garnish. Tasty. My date got the Cobb salad. The grilled chicken accompaniment was quite good. Service was quick and overall a great meal. read more

i've never been disappointed by a meal here. their beyond burger is the best one around. food and service is consistently good. always has extensive drafts too. read more

I've been there twice now. The first time was for breakfast and I ordered the Corn Beef Hash. I always get a little skeptical ordering hash from places but it was home made so I had to try it. I'm sure glad I did because it was the best corn beef hash I have ever had. I went back for dinner a few weeks later. Now I love cheeseburgers from all places, but no lie, this had to be the best one I have ever had. BBQ, onion rings, chipotle mayo, cheddar cheese, bacon, pickles. It was delicious. I've had to wait about 20-30 minutes each time, but they have a great bar with tons of different kinds of beer, so it was totally worth it. Can't wait to go back again! read more

Went in this past Wednesday night with my husband and daughter. We don't normally go out to eat in this part of town, but we had a recital in the area so we figured we would give Stars a try. We sat down, ordered sodas (which were HUGE! At least a liter in each cup) and then we ordered food... and waited... and waited... and waited. Finally we walked out hungry and annoyed after 45 minutes of no food and no sign of our waitress. We told the hostess on our way out and she at least seemed concerned that we were left sitting for so long. Beyond that, the restaurant seemed to be completely staffed by high school students. I didn't see a single adult member of the staff in the near hour I was in the restaurant. Also, the place was full of screaming children. I really mean SCREAMING too. I'm a parent of a young child and even I was shocked by the noise level. You may have gathered this already, but I won't be going back. read more

Great beer selection. Service is above average, food is above average. Great location, lots of friendly regulars after the dinner crowd files out. Breakfast is the best in the area read more

This place was not only kid friendly but had great food. The scallop rissoto was my favorite.

average food with lines, and bad parking. My wife swears she gets sick after eating here every time she went. So we do not go there any more. read more

Breakfast at stars is my favorite! I can't stop ordering the BLT Benny every time I come. The home fries are to die for and have bacon and onion on them, which gives them lots of flavor. Everything we have tried here is good. I would recommend coming early because there's almost always a wait. Skip the bloody Mary's and mimosas- the bloodys taste like cocktail sauce and the mimosas are put in cups with ice and don't have the bubble of champaign. read more

My husband has been trying to take me here for over a year. It's an hour from our house but I finally made the trip. The food was delicious, portions and price were good. They brought my daughter fruit to eat before the food arrived. Her and I both have food allergies and they were very accommodating and made recommendations. I had the Ahi Tuna and it was fantastic! read more

I wish I could give a minus star rating. Stars would get a -2 I went to Stars last night and ordered the fisherman's platter. The description on the menu reads "Native Cod, New Bedford Scallops, Whole Belly Clams & Shrimp delivered fresh daily & fried to perfection; Served with French Fries, Tartar Sauce, Cole Slaw & Lemon". When I ordered it the waiter told me that they were out of clams, but if I liked they would add a couple scallops or shrimp. I opted for a few more scallops. When it arrived I was not impressed. It was small on size and topped with some overcooked onion rings. One 4 'x 5' piece of fish, 7 quarter sized scallops, on a bed of fries and a tablespoon of slaw. NOT ONE SHRIMP!! I have lived in New England my whole life. I've been saltwater fishing, shell fishing, lobstering, and cooking my catch for over 25 years. I can't even count the number of seafood/fishermen/ captains platters I've eaten in my lifetime. One bite of the scallops and I knew that I was in for a disappointing meal. They were overcooked and definitely not fresh from New Bedford, they weren't fresh at all. Frozen junk! The fish, wasn't fresh either. Same frozen junk. Not even fit for a tourist from the Midwest. This platter ranks in the top three as far as the worst of the worst, and who's description was an outright lie. It was "market price" at $22.00, which is an absolute rip-off given that it was frozen junk. For another couple of bucks I could have gotten a top of the line, fresh of the boat, and cooked to perfection platter at Jake's in Hull!!! Also got the nachos. Horrible!! My 11 year old daughter could have put together a better order. No meat, very little cheese, and very lame. The only good thing was our waiter. He was Johnny on the spot and provided above average service. read more

This place has really really good burgers! I would recommend the kobe burger and the big daddy burger, which comes with bacon & their tasty special mayo sauce! If you ever find yourself in this sleepy little town, stop on by for a meal. They have an extensive menu, along with a full bar, and even a live band playing music on certain nights. read more

I'm updating my review to 1 star due to the awful treatment of some of the waiting staff. I would mention names if someone follow up privately. I had to ask other waitress for coffee , the food came out cold like it was setting around in the kitchen and after we got the check , the waitress opened the book to see how much the tip was, she gave us the death look and turned her back without any phrases like have a nice day , thanks for coming ... etc. instead she rolled her eyes and turned her back. This been happening almost in every visit. This place always been welcoming. Please talk to your staff read more
