Sitting at the bar looking over the menu, the atmosphere had that comfortable local feel that makes you want to stay awhile. I ordered a margarita while waiting for my food, and the staff was incredibly friendly and social, they made me feel like a regular from the moment I walked in. My order came out quickly and was packaged carefully, which made it perfect for traveling. I chose the steak tips and shrimp cocktail special with two sides, and everything was excellent. The steak tips were tender and cooked perfectly, and even in a to-go container the shrimp cocktail was beautifully presented and tasted very fresh. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with great food and genuinely welcoming service.

Update after a few more visits has them down to a 4 based on inconsistency…read more -- Roast Chicken: Hearty fall/winter dish with crisp skin, herbs aplenty, and gravy underneath, with roasted carrots and mashed potatoes. A little dry in the interior. No longer on the menu as of last week. -- Grilled Shrimp: Plump shrimp whose paprika-heavy rub and grill flavor balanced the butteriness, with a pepper aioli joining as well. On top, pickled fennel. Underneath, grilled sourdough that soaked in the grill, butter, and seafood flavors. Fantastic but no longer on the menu as of last week. -- Forge & Vine Cheeseburger: All the same ingredients as on a Big Mac, only of much higher quality, on a thick burger of high quality. I've been hoping to relive the glory of my first burger here (see previous review), but it's been rocky. Good grill flavor and outer crusting, but medium to medium well when I ordered medium rare. (Yes, I mentioned it to the server and manager.) Still a pretty good burger, and the bacon I added this time was thick and walking the tightrope between crispy and bendy. But a big miss on hitting greatness again. So I gave it another chance the next visit, and it was again overdone. But this time I sent it back, and the one they sent out was very good. The most recent visit only required one try: excellent, with the right crust outside and proper pink and juicy inside, along with a solid assortment of vegetables and condiments. An exemplary burger-- when they cook it right. -- Calamari: An eye-catching appetizer with the mostly thin rings pretty much treated like chicken wings, with a spicy tangy glaze, an aïoli underneath, and some kimchi on top for presentation. Very good crunch and flavor, but thicker pieces would have allowed a better tasting of the seafood itself. Still very enjoyable and I'd get it again. -- Shrimp Cocktail: Solid job, good size, presented in ice with lemon wedges and a cocktail sauce a little light on the horseradish. -- Grilled Swordfish Meunière: A thick slab, lightly grilled, fairly. A thin brown butter sauce, capers, and sautéed mustard greens added some much needed moisture and oomph. No longer on the menu as of last week. -- Jimmy Nardello Peppers: Long, bright red, no heat, slightly sour, and somewhat fruity like peppadew, dressed up with garlic aioli, chimichurri, and coriander seed. Outstanding. Great beer pairing. Beautiful space. Good to outstanding service. Cody pours his heart and soul into the experience, exuding enthusiasm from the greeting through the check. Some might find it a little overdramatic, but after enduring too many AWOL and near-comatose servers elsewhere, I can't get enough of it. I like this place, and consider it good to very good, but it seems like the proteins (especially the grilled items) turn up a little too dry a little too often to consider them great. Their pricing is high but well worth it when the execution is there. When it's not, it's a too-expensive just-okay. Despite the inconsistency, going with a 4 based on the most recent visit being problem-free.

Still a beautiful place with lovely atmosphere. The food is still disappointing. I had a scallop starter. It looked like 2 scollops that was cut in half. Smaller than a quarter, served on a shell on a bed of very Fishy smelling seaweed for $24. Drinks were good and service was great. If you are going to sell your protein based on size, like you do with your steaks, then maybe start doing the same with weight size for seafood products. Quantity and quality is important.

The place was quiet, which allowed Ben to sirens time talking to us and giving is the ones and outs of his creations. Our server was Sienna, who was bright and personable, and worked side by side with Chef Ben to make our meal memorable. We started our meal with oysters. Chef gave us his recommendations and they were has delicious as he hyped them up to be. Then we tried the lobster guacamole, which the star of the shows was actually the bacon lardon that's layered in. A must try for anyone who loves this dip. I had the pineapple braised pulled pork tacos. I could barely finish two, yet alone the 3 healthy sized tacos. And my girlfriend was treated to both the crab cake and the specialty salmon cakes. She proclaimed the salmon the winner of that cake battle. For desert, which we didn't finish either, was the berry cobbler. I compared it to an oversized toaster strudel, but homemade and much more flavorful. Overall, we love it here. This is our 2nd trip and we'll be sure to come again soon! Pro Tip: sit at the Oyster Bar, watching the kitchen working is a phenomenal experience. Thank you again to Chef Ben and Sienna! And look, they also have events coming up!!

EVERYTHING Chef Chris makes FROM SCRATCH is the BEST version you've ever had! If you've never tried Hungarian cuisine, THIS is the place! All in a cozy, homey environment! Tastefully decorated and EXTREMELY comfortable seating, which is nice because NOBODY pressures you to leave! They leave the check and disappear, which every fine dining establishment should do! This restaurant is well worth traveling to, even though Pepperell is off the beaten path. Make reservations in advance, especially if you're interested in one of the rotating Hungarian dishes chef Chris has that weekend ( TLB is open for dinner and takeout Thursday -Sunday from 4-9 PM). Let them know to reserve a specific Hungarian specialty (Hungarian Goulash, Chicken Paprikash, Porkholt, etc.which are usually dune-in only) and how many, because these dishes are complex and chef Chris needs to know how many portions to make for that day. When they're gone, they're gone, UNLESS you reserve them. Trust: EVERYTHING chef Chris creates is AMAZING, but the aforementioned dishes and ANYTHING seafood are truly magnificent in taste, presentation, and portion size. Ain't nothing "lazy" about this Lazy Bubble! I'd put it at or above most fine dining restaurants in Boston, WITHOUT the pretentiousness and high prices! Take a chance! Come to Pepperell!
