Visited on A Wed evening and had a great dinner at the bar. The bartender was lovely - recommended the steak tips which were awesome. Generous portion and cooked perfectly. My wife had the filet mignon also very good. The entrees are also priced very reasonably. My espresso martini was also excellent. The vibe - feels kinda like a local type place, lots of regulars. I don't live in this town but will be back next time I pass thru. read more

So we went here with a group of folks from our senior center for dinner for their special menu that is $20 from 2:30 to 4:30 there was a really great variety of approximately probably 12 different dishes between steak and pasta dishes, as well as fish and others. I had the 8 ounce sirloin which you could cut with the fork. It was cooked perfect and everything came out hot and fresh just like I wanted these otherwise I would've sent it right back cause I like my food to burn in my mouth. They also have for a couple dollars more you could get a filet mignon with special butter on top for $24. Everything came with a soup or a salad. It also came with a pasta or potatoes so starch and a vegetable or instead of the vegetable the day which was a carrot and green bean mix you could also get instead you get coleslaw. I got the coleslaw. It didn't really have a mayonnaise type dressing on it so that was a different kind of taste and it wasn't very cold so I kinda was concerned about that so I only had one bite. But the baked potato that I got was scolding hot. The butter melted right away in it, which is to me as a perfect potato came with sour cream. The steak like I said was tenders could be cooked exactly the way I like it you could cut it with a fork even though I had a steak knife. My partner had the veal Parmesan, which was a very large piece she can see from the pictures with he substituted Angel hair pasta for ziti. I think he should've stuck with a Z because Angel hair was just cooked too much. I was kind of soft like really soft like al dente. But the server was wonderful. She was very friendly. Kurdish came over as each person came in and offered to guess all drinks or a cocktail or something. She was just very involve which was wonderful. Then when it came time for dessert, we had a choice was great and not pudding or ice cream. We got ice cream with the choice of vanilla chocolate or Oreo cookie. I get vanilla the other half Oreo cookie. I did ask if we could get chocolate on it chocolate syrup there wasn't enough charge of a dollar for the hot fudge. It wasn't much so I just split it with my other half cause I didn't want to pay the app charged for two of us. I had a cocktail it was very very good. I don't remember it now, but it had like makers, mark bourbon and stuff and cherries. I didn't know how expensive it was until the bill came cause I didn't realize it wasn't priced on the menu but that's OK. I will learn and not get it again. I felt the bill was kind of high for what we had. We were gonna go out the next site to celebrate our anniversary, but with the price that we paid for dinner that first night on Tuesday we didn't really have enough in a bunch left to go out the next day. Our bill for this was $75 for the two of us. I know that's probably the average price now for going out to dinner, but I just thought that was a little high, but I didn't expect it to be really that much but we had a set price for dinner. But it's all brand new now. The insides all changed over. It's a little bit of dark wood, but I think like a cherry finish it kinda looks like they have a separate area completely from the bar to the restaurant. It isn't blocked off completely but it's made so you really have a separation there and we had gotten the function room in the back which seated with our party was 27. But I think you'll easily fit in 50 people in that back room. We've already decided when we go back. He wants to go back and try the burger but if we do that, we'll probably just get the one sandwich just to see if it's more reasonable period for us but it was wonderful. I really had a good time. read more

After being ignored for 25 minutes while later arrivals sat (us with reservations, them without) we were finally given a seat. The hostess said she called our name. Hard to believe since I was standing next to her the whole time and another couple had to point out that we were before them. We got sat at a table in the bar and served by Brian, one of the owners. Very nice guy, very accommodating. We were quickly served with water and warm rolls. The rolls were very good. Drinks were brought out very quickly, but waited over 30 minutes for our dinner. I ordered the salmon, which I often do. The entrée came with a choice of sides, so I chose the rice pilaf and the green beans. Everything was terrific. The salmon was big, the rice pilaf was quite good, and the beans were terrific. We will definitely be back. Hopefully they'll address their hostess position by then. read more

We gave this place a try and escape the heat. If you've ever wanted to enjoy dinner in a sauna, this is your place. we got a full body sweat session. It must have been close to 85 degrees inside. It felt more like a greenhouse than a restaurant. Consider yourself warned! read more

The first time there tonight. The food was absolutely fantastic. I had the baked stuffed haddock with garlic mashed potato. The fish was absolutely delicious! The portion was huge. The garlic mashed were the best I ever had. This will not be my last visit here. read more

The staff were super friendly. The atmosphere, well I love all the lights, but the abundance of fake flowers was way tacky over the top. It is definitely a restaurant for the locals. A small quaint place. Our waitress was attentive and very friendly. Our food was pretty good and came out in good time. . I enjoyed my fish n chips, but my husband didn't seem to care much for his black and blue burger. He only ate two bites. My only complaint is the mozzarella sticks appetizer was a huge disappointment. Each stick is massive, the size of a full size candy bar. And it was so big that they were solid , not melted inside. Not enjoyable eating such a huge bar of cheese. It's like they just cut a 8oz block in half long ways and fry it up. You get 4 in an order. read more

Delicious food and great service! Had lunch here yesterday with family and we ordered clam chowder, fish and onion rings, and sandwiches. The chowder was some of the best we have had and the fish was so fresh with a beautiful crisp batter. Also, the sandwiches were excellent and huge! The great thing is that you can choose the delicious onion rings as a side. The prices are reasonable as well. What a great find! read more

Very long wait to get our dinner as the kitchen was backed up. The waitresses are wonderful! read more

One two three strikes ur out,New owners must be changing some of their items on there menu.we have been coming here for 20 years.This place was always consistent not anymore!There chicken cordon blue is not the same ,rubbery chicken batter falling apart.chicken gravy had no flavor whatsoever.Got the prime rib one night, not the same quality and was not med rare .43$ mash potatoes where mixed with instant. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by how good the food was here, especially under the new management and ownership. There's definitely some noticeable improvement, though the front-of-house operations could use a bit more coordination. The order pickup process felt a little disorganized, and the girl at the counter--while trying her best--seemed a bit overwhelmed and carried a touch of sass that didn't help matters. That said, the food was a standout. The fried chicken bowl was exceptionally fresh and flavorful--far better than expected. Burgers were solid, cooked well, and satisfying. The fries, on the other hand, were a bit too thick and had an off taste I couldn't quite get past. Lastly, the chicken parm came in a massive portion and was actually quite decent. Overall, worth a visit--and with just a few front-end improvements, this place could really shine. read more

Tried The Horse last week for the first time Cozy, Friendly atmosphere- great drinks. The Filet was just ok we should have gotten the Prime Rib. Chicken Piccata was good wish it had more garlic or lemon for flavor but cooked perfectly and generous portions Will go back and try some specials and I heard the Marsala is great read more

Sat at the bar on a Saturday afternoon - casual and friendly environment. Great service and cocktails by Lindsey! Tons of $20 "Social Hour" menu options but opted for the $25 filet which was super tender and perfectly cooked. Starter salad was fresh and the grapenut pudding with whipped cream was delicious!! read more

This is a place for old people with chewy food and someone to talk to. They take care of their regulars, if you're not a daily regular be prepared for horrible service to go along with the overpriced foods. There are 4 better restaurants with better service on the same street. Junior is horrible at the bar and tries to embarrass customers. read more

Delicious food and great service. Ambience is very nice and friendly. The Horse is a very cozy place. I am always pleasantly surprised by how good the food is here. Highly recommend. read more

The service and food is exceptional. We even get the appetizer specials to go at times. Has never been unhappy.

Good food and great service. Ambience is very nice and recent interior updates are very nice.

First time there. Food was delicious!!! Gayle was a wonderful server. She made us feel so comfortable. We eat out a lot, and many places are ok, The Horse is so much better than that!!! Very cozy place. Totally recommend. read more

Had the best prime rib dinner ever! Staff was awesome too! Place is always busy, but made a reservation and was seated immediately.

My wife and I ate at the bar tonight. The service was great. I had a Guinness. She had the Mayflower. The Guinness was good, but not a proper two part pour. I had a cheeseburger w tater tots. My wife had the chicken salad wrap w onion rings. My burger was really good. Fresh bun and perfectly cooked burger. Fresh tomatoes and lettuce. Just right. On the other hand, my wife's chicken salad looked like it was prepared by an inmate at MCI Walpole. The chicken salad was chicken and mayo. Perhaps some microscopic celery, but that wound be kind to the chef. No lettuce, no tomatoes, no seasonings. Super mono-chromatic and bland. My wife asked for some lettuce and tomato so she could doctor the wrap. They were delivered promptly and she made the best of it. To be positive, the onion rings were really good. Gotta do a better job on the chicken salad, but otherwise, nice dinner. read more

I am a takeout customer for many years, this place has gone downhill. Portion sizes have grown smaller as has the quality. However we keep giving them another chance as the food is still pretty good. Last night was the final straw. One of our entrees was the "mini seafood platter" $32.99 that describes it as "Fresh haddock nuggets, scallops, and whole-belly clams deep-fried to a golden brown. Served with fries, hand-cut onion rings, homemade coleslaw, and tartar sauce." Zero whole belly clams as they don't have it (menu didn't mention). And overall very unimpressed. Picture included, you be the judge. I called for a refund/discount and they offered me clam strips if I came back. Pass and pass in the future I'm afraid to say. Careful what you order!! This picture is from right when the box was opened. Nothing had been taken out. I remind you, $32.99!! -Very dissatisfied and long term customer read more

Got the prime rib, asked for medium rare but it was certainly medium. Disappointed especially if you know how to cook prime rib to perfection at home. read more

Have been really happy with the food since the new ownership. The filet mignon is always very good... the chicken piccata is good and the prime rib is usually very good. they are doing a great job! read more

Went for a nice meal out while in the area and didn't disappoint! Got the steak that was on special but they have a lot of large portion dishes for reasonable price. Great alternative to going to wrentham or foxboro read more

Great staff serving fantastic good food. Prime rib is excellent and seafood is always super fresh.

Absolutely horrible. Overpriced, tasteless, cold, food that was served with no expediency at all. To begin we were a party of two arriving at 605 we did not leave until 745 due to the long wait for our food that arrived way after 7 pm. The stuffed mushrooms were saturated with cheese to cover a tasteless bland stuffing. I ordered Haddock mashed potatoes and carrots. The mashed potatoes were cold, carrots were cold, Haddock was hot but had the same tasteless stuffing on top. My wife had the stuffed haddock and she agreed hers was bland and tasteless as well. The price point was way off given the poor quality. read more

The food and services were good. The restaurant seating wasn't crammed together which I liked. I ordered salmon and it was delicious. My friend ordered the haddock special which was mostly bread crumbs. read more

Food was not worth the price Service was good. We had a really nice server. The hostess was incredibly rude to my party. And she said we have to wait 45 minutes after our reservation. We know she gave our table to a other party. She put us in the bar, and we wanted the other quieter room And.. it was my wife's birthday, and we put that in the reservation. And no acknowledgement. Very disappointing read more

always loved their baked haddock, the grea1t zucchini stripsand actually everything i have ever had was good. oops cant forget the grapenut pudding!! anxious to get there soon again. should also mention great service and alwayspriced right!! read more

We were seated relatively fast and met a rather nice waitress. The restaurant in South has a cramped feel to it as it seems there are too many tables for what the building can actually sustain. Oddly, our table happened to be right next to the commercial dishwashing machine and their coffee preparation area. Why the dishwasher isn't located in the food prep area must be out of convenience for the wait staff. It took between 40 and 45 minutes to finally receive our food and unfortunately that was a disappointment as well. Chicken Gorgonzola: this dish is flawed conceptionally. It was served with undercooked and under seasoned pappardelle pasta. The chicken was rolled, breaded, and contained a center of Gorgonzola, mozzarella and prosciutto. This time the chicken was hard and overcooked. Lastly, this is all served in what could be described as a bath of marsala, and some other ingredient rendering the pasta even soggier and ruining any of the crispy bread texture. The chicken ones had. Not to mention the alcohol was not cooked out of the marsala. This should be scrapped or completely reconceptualized. The rest of our dishes consist of two orders of efficient chips, which fair no better. The chicken itself was flavorless along with the breading. Tasting the breading alone you could quickly determine there was no seasoning whatsoever. This was served with a side of onion rings were blatantly undercooked. They were soggy and had a blonde appearance. How any of this food left the kitchen without the executive chef catching this is a mystery. Apparently, nobody is paying attention either that or no one cares. Even our waitress should've been able to see the onion rings that were under. Even after telling the waitress of how the food was awful, it all still remained on our bill, which was the nail in the coffin, preventing us from ever returning again. read more

Highly highly recommend!! The hostess down to the waitress was extremely attentive and sweet. The food is great quality with the feeling of "homemade". We loved the fact the hostess remembered us and said " weren't you here last week". The deserts are homemade!!!! read more

Warmly greeted immediately upon entering. Place was packed even at 7:30 at night. The place is kind of dark and dingy it could definitely use a renovation. The waitress was friendly and efficient. I got the burger, cooked medium, came out rare and she picked right up on it asking if it was too rare, I love that it comes with fries or onion rings or a mix of both. My husband got the seafood special it was pretty big in size and did have a lot of seafood in it. I was too full for dessert but hubby got the peach cobbler with ice cream I had a couple of bites and it was very good the cobbler part perfectly crispy. I will definitely go again. read more

Excellent food. Attentive waitstaff. Highly recommend for a 5 star dining experience. Cozy decor

Excellent food friendly people Glad we tried this place. Service was great places like this are disappearing slowly.

The stuffed Haddock was moist and delicious and had a great thick cut. Clam chowder thick an decent. Server was friendly and personable. Good selection but whole belly clams were not on the lunch menu as shown on the pictures. The breading on the fish sandwich was light and tasty. We will keep it on our go to's. read more
