First time here, first time in Worcester!! Went here for a friend's birthday celebration on a…read moreSunday evening and it was quite nice. This place looks deceptively small from the outside and also when you first walk in - there's the long bar area. But there's a whole another side room with a really cool chandelier and tables - this pic is on the website. Plus there's a whole fenced-in patio in the back which also has quite a few tables and also a corn hole game setup. Has some greenery plants and lights. Nice for entertaining - and that is where the party was. It can easily fit about 20-30 people. We had cake for the birthday and people ordered drinks at the bar. The bartender was very friendly. Looks like a neighborhood bar where people know each other. They have some bar food like pretzel, hot dog - the hot dog was only $3 which is unbelievable! Anyway we all had a great time- played some corn-hole too!

Haven't been back here for ages, used to be a place you buy food by the weight. Now what a hidden…read moregem! Will definitely be back. We took our two younger ones there for a quiet Easter Sunday dinner together. So many interesting things on the menu, we way over ordered. But everything was delicious. We had the pork belly confit, the cheese bread, the octopus, and the parm wings to start. They were all polished off quickly. Our pork belly did seem to have missed a sauce, but we just dipped them with the cheesy bread sauce and was very happy. My son ordered a few different skews and thoroughly enjoyed his Picanha, sausage and cheese and chicken heart. My youngest said the chicken hearts were the best she had ever tried. High praise from a kid loving chicken heart since just a tiny tod. My wife and I both ordered the ribeye over mushroom risotto. We order medium rare and both of ours came perfectly done. Both our kids thoroughly enjoyed trying our steak and risotto. My daughter and I both enjoyed mixing my son's Yucca mash with the risotto. She practically scrapped my plate clean. We all had our eyes on the pineapple, but all agreed we were overstuffed and will defer to next time. We even had leftovers to bring home to one happy Puppy. Will definitely return!

cocktail garden & kitchen is a brand new restaurant and outdoor lounge. the ambiance is cute,…read morethere's an indoor bar with a couple tables and a large outdoor patio area filled with comfy chairs, couches and covered in lights. we came at 10pm on a wednesday, the kitchen was closed but we came for the drinks anyways. they do a great job with the drink presentation, using different presentations with smoke which is entertaining and pretty! their drinks look beautiful but the drinks are very watered down or sweet from the sweet heart and mezcal drinks we tried. for ~$17 each, i loved the presentation but we both didn't feel there was nearly any alcohol in them, either sugary or watery. maybe it's a method for you to order more? mezcal 2.5/10 sweet heart 3/10 although they have a great ambiance and vibe, and fun presentation, since we came for a single good drink, it was lacking. for $17 a drink, the drinks shouldn't be this weak. this is a new place so i'm sure they have some things to work out, and i would highly encourage them to just add more alcohol to their drinks and this would be an ideal place to get after dinner drinks and relax on their outdoor patio. kitchen was closed so can't speak for the food. the neighborhood is very busy and loud, so while there may be plenty of space for an intimate or group conversations, the street is pretty noisy, even on a wednesday. i do feel like they will work this out! tldr; great vibe, great presentation, good service, drinks need more work, located in busy part of city. ambiance: 4/5 food: n/a drinks: 1.4/5 service: 3.5/5 cocktail garden & kitchen: 2.9/5

The arancini was awesome. Perfectly crisp & ooey gooey cheesy. The sauce was fantastic. The real star was the short rib & truffle pizza. Cannot put in words how damn good it was. We have had the short rib before with brunch, so knew what to expect but this surpassed it. We had the same waitress as the last visit, Bonnie. She was pleasant and attentive just as before. Next time will probably be the time to try the picanha! We shall see. :)

I don't know what I was expecting, but this exceeded my expectations in every way!

There is a cool bar in the back right of the venue and the bartenders are quick and chill. The sound was very good and it was a great night!!! I would not hesitate to return here for the right show!

Our drinks weren't refilled at all during our visit. And we had to try to flag a few people down for our check. For food, chips and salsa were store bought. Salsa tasted like the jarred salsas you get at the grocery store. I ordered the black bean soup that tasted ok but was lukewarm. I tried to flag someone down to heat it up but gave up because I was hungry. We also ordered the beef fajitas. Beef wasn't tender and had some sinew bites. It was also in some marinade instead of a dry rub seasoning which I prefer. Floors felt greasy and the part of the restaurant we sat in wasn't very air conditioned (it was a 90 degree day). For some reason, the Stars didn't align with us for this place. Wouldn't return.

This is an authentic Mexican Restaurant in one of Northboro's shopping plazas on Main St. they've…read morebeen open for a few years now so I figured their food was pretty good. Mexican music plays in the background but not loud. The restaurant is clean and has a fun Mexican theme. The bathroom is very small but clean, also decorated in a Mexican theme. We were greeted by a friendly hostess who sat us right away. The waiter came over almost immediately and got us our drinks. My daughter got the homemade sangria and said it was very good. Naco chips came out right away with some spicy salsa. I ordered the seafood burrito and my daughter orders the burrito mole. My seafood burrito was absolutely stuffed with seafood and it was delicious. I would definitely get it again. I asked for the tomatillo sauce on the side in case it was going to be spicy, but it had the right amount of heat and was very flavorful. Mixing the rice with the black beans and the tomatillo sauce made a really tasty bite. My daughter enjoyed her mole burrito and cleaned her plate. We didn't get dessert. We were too stuffed! The price for each meal was $17.99, which I found to be an extremely good value for such a quality meal. I took their takeout menu. We're definitely coming back and will order takeout.

You walk into the lobby and you see the safe in the middle of the room behind the bar. We started off with the dry rub wings with blue cheese were very good and savory. Must get when you get there. For pizza it was the Alsatian and sausage fennel ricotta. Alsatian was savory with every bite with just the right amount of bacon, garlic and onion. The sausage had a pesto sauce which hit you in the right way on the first bite. Since this is an ice cream and pizza had to try the ice cream. Got the malted chocolate- this was very unique it was like a creamy chocolate with tiny chocolate chips and the chocolate frappe was good again a unique chocolate flavor that hit in a good way. Will be back to try other things. Make sure if you don't like you pie well done and burnt CT style let them know
