My friends and I have been curious about Stars ever since we started taking the backroads to Nantasket Beach in Hull. This month, I finally dined here for both lunch and dinner within the same week! Stars is a nice restaurant to go with the family or a small group of friends. The prices are middle-of-the-road for the area, and the food is decent. I was happy with my fish tacos, but beware of the ghost pepper grilled cheese sandwich! That ghost pepper heat sneaks up on you, and might be too much for the faint at heart. My dining partners noticed that anything grilled (salmon, burgers, etc.) seemed more charred than usual, too. Nonetheless, most of our plates were cleaned, and we were satisfied with our experience. I'll probably return with a group next time I spend the day on Hingham Harbor. read more

How can you not love Stars? The food is good, great bar, and good music. I have dinned here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner; I have not been disappointed yet. read more

The mac and cheese is to die for!! So delicious. We also had the buffalo chicken rangoons and they weren't my favorite - the taste reminded me a bit of cheetos - but my friend loved them, so I think it's just a personal taste thing. Our server was prompt and friendly but largely stayed out of our way. I personally prefer that so I didn't mind but if you're looking for a place to really chat with your servers, this might not be for you. (It was not busy when we went.) the view is spectacular, can't be beat, but parking can be a bit tough. Overall I was very satisfied. Food was very quick and piping hot and again - that mac and cheese! read more

i knew about this place from before, but had not idea they had breakfast until a friend told me. We went on a Saturday at 10am (they serve breakfast until noon!). We immediately were seated and had our coffees poured as we sat down and were able to look out and enjoy the water (through the parking lot full of cars) but still not a bad view. I ordered the caprese omelet, hash browns and marble toast. My boyfriend ordered some kind of sausage and cheese thing with cinnamon toast. The bread here is so delicious! It is thickly cut and has a great crispy texture. The rest of my meal was pretty good, but I think I would rather have a more flavorful cheese in my omelet rather than mozzerella. The coffee was pretty good. All in all, it was a great breakfast place, our food came quickly and the service was fab. i am looking forward to going back and trying the belgian waffles! read more

This place is a bargain and the food is very good. Came in at four on a Tuesday and each entree was only $10 - apparently all entrees ordered between 4 and 6 have this same price, so our fried clams plate and lobster mac and cheese were half off, basically. Both were delicious, by the way. Also fantastic? The clam chowder. Creamy and sweet. read more

They were busy but we got seated quickly and they had a gluten free menu that was great. They had 4-5 gluten free beers to choose from which made a nice change. All in all it was really nice. It was also nice to be able to share the same apps as my non-gluten friends. I felt the calamari was better done the gluten free way as were the buffalo chicken strips. read more

Went here for breakfast before the beach the other day. They told us to sit anywhere but every table was dirty. The place was a mess. No one came to clean or take our order for over 5 minutes so we left and went to Toast on the beach. This place has really gone down hill. read more

It's been almost a year since I last came to Stars, but I'm really not sure why I've waited this long! I came in with three of the children I nanny for, and they had every thing under the sun that those kids could possibly ask for. You can get everything from pasta with butter or sauce to different kids'pizzas, to chicken fingers, hot dogs, and Kraft mac and cheese! And they offer healthy options and sides as well. The real clincher though was that Monday-Thursday, with the order of an adult meal, all kids' meals are only $1.99! So 3 kids meals were under $6! As for my food, I ordered the BBQ Chicken wrap with grilled broccolini instead of fries- and I was not disappointed! The wrap was delicious- BBQ chicken, bacon, cheese, and onion strings- and the grilled broccolini was perfect- slightly crunchy, not soggy, and only very lightly seasoned! This is definitely a place I would recommend to anyone. Always good service and good food for great prices. read more

First off, I LOVE breakfast food... all of it... LOVE. I want to try everything on the menu, all the time. We decided to try something different on Labor Day. We took a drive and ended up at Stars. The host asked us breakfast or lunch (it was just about 12pm). I said lunch and he said that will be 40 mins. I asked, Is there a difference in wait for breakfast? He said that's about a five minute wait. Ok, Breakfast it is. We were seated in less than 5 minutes. As I looked at the menu I see that they serve chicken sausage and turkey bacon, which is so exciting for me because I don't eat pork and sometimes you want to feel like you get to order a whole breakfast meat and all! Like I said above I love breakfast food and I like to try a little of everything. Plus I cannot tell you how many times I have ordered a combination breakfast and say skip the meat, but you still get charged for it because it's my own problem I don't eat pig products. So this seemed like a nice change of pace. I find something on the menu called the 2x2x2. 2 eggs, sausage, and bacon at a set price added to an item from above. Awesome. I place my order and ask for the belgian waffle with strawberries and if I can do turkey bacon and chicken sausage instead of the regular for whatever upcharge that would be associated with it. I, of course, expect an upcharge in this situation since I know these items are more expensive. The waitress said that she has to go and check and she'll let me know. My husband kind of smirks thinking - "Why wouldn't they do it?!" The waitress comes back and says that they won't do it because the items cost too much to keep in house. I said even if you charge me the difference? She said the chef said no and said he cannot do it and they would not give me a number to charge. So I asked for the menu. She said... oh ok. I think she was going to bring me regular bacon and sausage, which would have been a waste. I explain, "I don't eat pork." So I go back to the menu and end up just settling on the waffle because I'm kind of frazzled at this point. I didn't expect it to be an issue. I dont know why. The waitress comes back and tells me she added on a side of turkey bacon to my order and is like is that cool?! I just nod because I'm hungry and she gives me two thumbs up. My promising breakfast is not adding up to be what I wanted it to be. And here I think I always set realistic expectations. This one got away from me.. clouded by my initial turkey bacon and chicken sausage excitement. To note I was charged for the bacon, which I expected. Money for good, goods for money. I know she was trying to make the situation better and I appreciate that to some extent, but it was kind of presumptuous. After my ordering confusion everything else was fine. Just a note: My orange juice and my husbands apple juice were room temperature, which is ok. Some people like it like that. Our food was good. Nothing overly special about the belgian waffle. Strawberries were fresh and not tart at all, which was a plus. My husband enjoyed his omelette. We chatted with the dead fly on the window sill and told the live one flying around our booth that he would end up like his friend if he kept it up. We probably won't go back. Its not like I'm taking some hard stance in outrage because I'm not outraged. Its just out of our way and since our experience wasn't out of this world amazing I wouldn't travel down there for a side of turkey bacon. Take it for what it is. My experience from my point of view. read more

I've been calling stars for over 15. Total of 5 calls and no one has answered. Trying to get dinner and I wasn't even put on hold, just rang and rang. They will not be getting our order due to awful service. read more

Every year a big group of people come to Stars and eats together. This year we broke off into tables and paid separately. As we payed we tipped 20% as usual. We went outside after the bill was payed and hung out for a second to regroup. The manager proceeded to come out and say that we did not tip, even though we did. And even if we hadn't, we are not legally required to tip. She told us to give an 11 dollar tip so we did because she was very assertive. As we went back home we calculated how much of a tip we payed and it was around 40 dollars for two quesadillas and two Mac and cheeses. read more

The first thing I noticed when walking in was the smell of rotted cooking grease emanating throughout the diner but the wife had really wanted to eat there so I held my nose The wait was long for the food it was cold and burnt by the time it did arrive the waitress rolled her eyes and gave dirty looks whenever a customer asked for anything. The best advice I can give is to never eat here read more

After much consideration I have decided that Stars is a really good place to go if you know when to go and order the right things... Not everything on the menu is stellar , but breakfast by & large is solid. The location is great in Hingham Harbor. They are kid friendly. Prices are decent. I live in Hingham so it's the local option. Don't know if I'd drive far to get here but hey, Arthur & Pats is closed all winter...a girl has to have a fallback that's closer than downtown Boston... Still not crazy about their lunch or dinners but on occasion they surprise me and I have something really great. I think it's hard to go wrong at breakfast though... read more

Popped in here for breakfast and we were not disappointed! Despite it being a busy Saturday morning, we were seated straight away and served by a friendly and attentive host. The food was excellent and was cooked to perfection, a great breakfast indeed! read more

Tons of gluten free options. The fried pickles and lobster roll were fantastic! Wish this place was closer to home. The floor could use a good vacuum and the place needs a little updating. read more

Slow service , ordered a Medium Kobe Burger came well done wasn't that great. The staff was polite but didn't provide great service.

This place had good food, good service and good prices. Big menu with a lot of choices. Small parking lot that can get kind of tight because it's usually busy. read more

Stars seems to vacillate between great food and as if the chef is phoning it in. Their clam chowder was always a go-to but lately it's been lukewarm and too lumpy, like the milk is old. I also LOVED their caesar salad but now, it's tasteless dressing mixed with lettuce a few croutons and no hint of anchovy, cheese or flavor of any kind, I swear they mixed it with mayo. Come on Stars, you can do better! read more

Seems like a pretty fun late night spot. Came in on a weeknight when they were doing trivia which was pretty loud but fun too participate in. Got the buff chick Mac and cheese which was very good and I would eat it again. Not a very good place for an intimate dinner but if your going out with friends for a bite and a few drinks it's a cool spot too check out. read more

SERIOUSLY? My best friend was visiting me from out of town. We were hungry and driving through Hingham so we decided to give Stars a whirl. I've heard and read many favorable reviews about this restaurant, so I was expecting to leave there with a full belly and a satisfied smile. To be fair, the food was actually pretty good... (save for the obviously grocery store quality, pre frozen mozzarella sticks, but I suppose it would be hard to make those from scratch) we were seated promptly at 2:30 pm on a Saturday, and our waitress was friendly and attentive. My problem with Stars lies with the COMPLETELY OBVIOUS disregard of professionalism. In one visit there we heard or witnessed: A manager reprimanding an employee right out in the open for everyone to hear, an employee dropping an "F-bomb" as I walked to the ladies room, and the crowning glory : My friend was waiting for me by the door as we were about to leave. A group of employees and a manager were congregated by the hostess stand. The manager was cracking blonde jokes and reffered to one of the waitresses as "Pocohontas" because her hair was in braids. My friend has blonde hair and native american heritage. She was so offended she couldn't even speak when the manager turns and says to her "oh, no offense". Evidently, some of the waitresses were hungover as well, because that was being broadcast by the manager too. One last thing, we sat under a leaky window that they should probably fix so that nobody else gets raindrops in their soup. Again, the food is pretty good, but the service is atrocious. These people need to keep their personal lives to themselves. I probably won't go back. read more

Wife and I have been here twice, and both times the food has been excellent. Yesterday was better than the first time. My wife had the chicken marsala which she enjoyed thoroughly, and I tried the shephard's pie, which was very good (better than the one at a popular Southie location). Service was excellent, just wish the Patriots would have been won their game to make the experience better, but Stars staff couldn't control that. :( read more

Not impressed! Food was good...but cold...long time for food to come ..place was dirty..bathrooms disgusting.

We had a great breakfast here! I had a breakfast quesdilla w/ cornbread and it was pretty good. Would totally go back!

So the wait was long but so worth it. I absolutely adore brunch and this place was my heaven. The coffee keeps coming and the breakfast plates are creative, funny and oh so delicious. I would come back every weekend if I lived a little closer just to try everything on that menu. Waitstaff are attentive and kind. Manager seemed like a great guy too! Bring friends, bring hungry tummies and enjoy! Must visit! read more

This place was very quaint and relaxed. The morning cocktails were impressive and the food was decent. I would definitely return if in the area again. read more

My Husband and I went here Saturday night. We got the appetizer sampler with bacon cheddar tater tots, pretzel bites and fried pickles. For our meals he got the veggie burger with fries and I got the cannonball burger with onion rings. The food was excellent and came out fast. Their beer selection is great. We had a couple of Smithwicks irish red ale's. The waitress was very nice and attentive. We will definitely be back. read more

A little more "family oriented " than I remembered. Some crying children on both sides of us made it a little difficult to enjoy the dinner. The waitress spilled both martinis all the way to the table so now my finger s are sticking to my keyboard. Not a bad place but I was remembering a slightly more upscale dinner experience with my wife. read more

Dinner was delicious. Great place. And the waiter had a great personality... Touched with the right amount of sarcasm. Will return!!! read more

Ten minute wait to eat which at 1000AM on a holiday is excellent. Workers polite and friendly. Food service was quick with the meals being very good and filling. Very enjoyable experience! read more

If you don't get the rude waitress who rolls her eyes at everything you say, you're in luck! It was my first time just last wk visiting. My friend who invited us is a regular. The waitress asked if I wanted coffee even though I hadn't gotten myself or my toddler settled yet. She rolled her eyes. Soon after, I asked if the drink comes with the kids meal. Roll of the eyes. She didn't come back to refill the coffee for a while so I asked if I could get a new cup since my cup was half full of cold coffee. Roll of the eyes again... that's when I said, "forget it!" And she said "oh, no it's ok... i hv a cup right here (referring to empty table next to us)" I couldn't believe how rude she was. Then I saw her flailing her arms at another customer soon after! Thank god my friend paid bc I would've left no tip and would've had to talk to the nice manager who came by our table earlier. Gonna give this place a shot again very soon ... read more

Great lunch and breakfast options at pretty decent prices for downtown Hingham. The wait for breakfast can be long but it's worth it! Appetizers are really great- pretzel bites are a go to for my husband and I. Everything is delicious! Large selection of beer too. Have yet to make it there for dinner but it will definitely happen. Parking can also be tough as it's situated awkwardly but there is parking along the street downtown if needed. read more

This is by far the best breakfast place I have been to. We recently bought a summer home in hull and have been looking for good places to eat. The waitress was so friendly and extremely attentive to our table. The food was cooked to perfection and came out very hot and fast. The entire place was packed with a line out the door and they still managed to get everything perfect and did not rush us at all. I had the home made corn beef hash and the cinnamon French toast it was so delicious. Thank you for a fantastic breakfast for my family and I we will be back!!! read more

Been here many times for apps with friends. I will continue to go back. The food is great and the prices are more than fair. One night I brought a group of 8 friends here. We all had at least two drinks and probobly 5-6 apps. I think our Bill totalled $90.00. THATS A STEAL. Steak n cheese egg rolls, buff chick rangoon, their calamari is AWESOME, etc. Will definitely be back. Stars is GREAT!!! read more

I am always in Hingham. There is nothing special here. I cannot figure out why people go here and think it's good. It's gone down hill in recent years and even people I respect think it's great. It's for college kids and people who are enamored with the location that refuse to admit it's just average........at best. Not very clean either. read more

Boyfriend and I decided to give this place a try. I was very surprised by how good it was. Our waiter was very friendly and down to earth. He was very quick even though he had a huge table right next to us. The food was amazing. We got the trio sampler with buffalo chicken rangoons, fried pickles and calamari - all very good. The app was so huge I could hardly eat any of my meal. Got the lobster mac and cheese - probably the best I've had - a ton of lobster meat and the top was nice and bubbly and crispy. Best part was the price. All of that food plus a few beers only came to around 55 bucks! Will definitely be back. Only negative was that the booths weren't the comfiest and a little stiff. I don't think that would deter us from returning, though. read more

I love this place. It's a small little diner close to the harbor. My favorite thing to order from this place is the fried pickles--which is what I primarly go there for. It's the best fried pickles I've ever had. The food is alright and the bar is great. What I don't like is how I don't have any cell phone reception. The service is nice and I would come here if I'm ever in the area or craving their fried pickles. read more

Great clam chowder, pasta and salmon. Wide variety and great service. Avoid the veggie burger

The quality of the food and the customer service are the real stars. Be prepared to wait if you are a Saturday or Sunday brunchophile, but the wait is worth it. Children welcome. The staff even offers a key distraction in the form of crayons, so bring some extra paper. read more

This place is always happening on the weekends. Food pretty good, portions plentiful.

Every time we come here our food is great. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner! There is such a great variety on the menu. Awesome service from beginning to end. By far the most consistent place close to home. We always end up here! read more
