    Grilled Bagel with Cream Cheese and kielbasa
    Bridget L.

    I'm sticking with 4. It's small and homey place. The waitress are always moving, taking orders, delivering food, but always making sure all customers are happy and not in need. The burgers are large, they actually fit the bun, I prefer naked fries, but these were tossed I. A but I'd flour, to give them crunch I'd guess, they were pretty good. The place is clean, the service is quick and the food is good, finding parking can be a problem though.

It's…read morelocated in a plaza with other restaurants and a supermarket so it was easy to find and there was plenty of parking. We walked in and were immediately greeted by a couple of chipper teenage hostesses and we were even able to pick our table. Our server seemed a little off at first but he warmed up after a little banter; perhaps he was just feeling us out. Beer menu was great but did not necessarily contain anything rare. I had a foam ipa and a stout from dorchester brewing to follow. I had the smash burger. It seemed like a true smash as it was crispy on the outside and had the right amount of grease. The house made chips were a nice addition as I'm not a huge French fry fan. My wife had the fig and prosciutto flatbread and she liked it. The fig paste was tasty, arugula was fresh and there was even some cheese pull. Overall, it was a nice visit and I wouldn't hesitate to go back based on how this visit went.

    Really disappointing experience at The Shed in Franklin…read more This place used to be pretty good, which makes the decline even more noticeable. We went on a Saturday night and the restaurant was surprisingly empty, yet the service still moved at an absolute snail's pace. With so few customers, there really was no reason for everything to take as long as it did. Unfortunately, the food did not make up for the wait. The potstickers were particularly bad, and I felt ill the following day after eating them. The rest of the meal including the BBQ quesadilla and fries was mediocre at best and nowhere near the quality I remember from previous visits. The prices make the experience even harder to justify. If you are charging these prices, the food and service need to deliver, and neither did. I'm not sure what happened to The Shed, because I remember this being a solid local restaurant. Based on this visit, it has gone significantly downhill. Slow service, mediocre food, disappointing quality, and simply not worth the price. Really unfortunate because we used to enjoy coming here.

    This was my first time here and I stopped in for lunch. Just a heads up if you're coming in…read moreexpecting something made immediately, this isn't really that type of place. You order your food and wait a little bit, but I thought it was worth the wait. I ordered the chicken platter with fries and a side salad. The portions were really generous. The fries came out hot and crispy, and the chicken was extremely flavorful. It looked like there were onions and peppers mixed in with it, and it was honestly really, really good. The salad was good too, and the dressing was delicious. I also got the baklava, which I really enjoyed. The only thing I would mention is the pricing. The TVs inside showed the platter for around $11.99 or $12.99, but when I paid it was a couple dollars more. I did notice a sign underneath the TVs saying that the screens were frozen and to refer to the paper menu for current pricing. The problem is, I only saw one paper menu and it was underneath the TV, so it wasn't really obvious. I think having paper menus available for customers would make more sense. That being said, even with the updated pricing, I didn't think it was unreasonable. I can definitely see how someone could be frustrated by seeing one price on the screen and then being charged another, but for me it wasn't a huge difference or a dealbreaker. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal and would definitely come back. Everything I ordered was good, the portions were generous, and the food had a lot of flavor.

Even for a weekend, it wasn't overly crowded and we were seated right away. The atmosphere is super chill--great vibe for kicking back and watching whatever games are on the screens. I tried the alcohol-free Berry Mule. Although it didn't come served in a traditional copper mule cup, it was still super refreshing and delicious! We also split the nachos; they were good, though next time we'll definitely add chicken or beef to take them to the next level. The absolute star of the show, however, was the Chicken & Burrata Sandwich. It was to die for! The fig jam paired ridiculously well with the savory chicken and creamy cheese, and the sweet potato fries on the side were cooked to perfection. Excellent spot for a chill lunch with friends or coworkers. Will definitely be coming back!

    "Walk in as strangers, leave as friends."…read more If that's not a saying that makes you want to head there now, then I don't know what is LOL! Obviously, there is more to the new renovated location of La Cantina than this saying but I will say I was pretty impressed when I saw it and knew I had to add it to my review. Let's just say it is pretty accurate. We did leave as friends since we made a few at the bar and then some. Just saying! La Cantina winery in Franklin, MA used to be a small wine bar that offered wine tasting flights and minimal food. BUT, now it is in a stunning new location (not far from their old stomping grounds). Fun Fact: It used to be a Mechanic garage. Well, wait until you see how it has turned from fixing cars to wine making and tasting. YOU HAVE GOT TO COME HERE! Parking is easy with plenty of spots. They have a lot of room at their gorgeous bar, but they also have high tops and tables for families or a large group. And, they host events here too; birthday parties, bridal showers, and anything in between, this place is it. I actually want to hold one of my milestone birthday parties here but well keep the number a secret for now. Service: Alana was our bartender and she was wonderful. Always asking us what we needed and how were doing. You don't get this upscale service any where else. And, when I wanted another sample of something she gave it to me without a fuss. Always with a smile on her face, she was the best. Wine: They have an excellent wine menu to choose from and they offer flights for about $25 pp. Flights are the best way to try multiple wines. I personally loved most of the red wines with Petit Sirah being my favorite. My husband loved their Barbera! I did sample their Sauv Blanc too which was nice but it was too cold to have a full pour. Food: Their menu is great with a ton of options from charcuterie, to tapas and some entrees. I will say some of their items can get expensive but definitely worth it. We started with a few cheeses and prosciutto. Then we ordered one of their popular pizzas called La Cantina. Everything was fresh, made in house with their beautiful pizza oven right smack in the middle of the bar. You have got to see this thing, its huge! Overall: If I could give this place 10 stars I would. We had the best time and we can't wait to go back. Franklin is not far from where we live but still a good 30 minute drive and also not far from the Wrentham outlets. We didn't have to make a reservation for a Sunday afternoon but I bet Saturdays can get pretty busy. I just loved everything about this wine bar and I know you will too! Cheers~
