We started with chips & salsa, which were delicious! We had to stop ourselves from getting more so we could have room for dinner... I ordered the mi pueblito enchiladas. The portion size was huge as it was served on a larger-than-average plate. I mixed the enchiladas with the rice & beans and it was an excellent, flavorful bite! I loved everything about my meal. I would highly recommend checking this place out if you like Mexican food! :)

The portions sizes are quite large (for drinks and food). I got a 28oz margarita, which was huge... you could definitely split this size! All the dishes were yummy.

I met some friends here for a late lunch for our book club and it wasn't crowded, and the service was quick.

Had a great experience at Monkey Lounge in Randolph and honestly was surprised by how unique the…read moreatmosphere was. The inside has a really fun upscale lounge vibe with colorful lighting, floral decor, hanging lanterns, and a huge centerpiece tree that makes the whole space feel almost like you are dining in a tropical garden. It feels trendy and lively without being overly loud, which made it a great spot for both dinner and drinks. For drinks, I ordered the mai tai and one of their mocktails. Both were well presented and came in beautiful glasses. The mai tai was refreshing, balanced, and not overly sweet like many places make them. The mocktail was also excellent and felt thoughtfully made rather than just tasting like juice. For food, the short ribs pho was fantastic. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the portion was generous with tender pieces of meat. Definitely one of the better pho presentations I have had in the area. I also ordered the sizzling steak pate with baguette, which came out hot and smelled amazing. The steak was tender and savory, the egg added richness, and pairing everything with the fresh baguette made for a really satisfying dish. Overall Monkey Lounge delivers on both ambiance and food quality. It feels like a hidden gem if you want somewhere with strong date night energy, aesthetic decor, and Vietnamese fusion dishes that actually taste as good as they look. Would absolutely come back again.

Monkey Lounge is definitely a hidden gem in Randolph. I stumbled across this restaurant and decided…read moreto give it a try. We were the only two people there. The aesthetics were so pretty (as you can see in the video I uploaded). They had a short window of time where it's happy hour where you get half off 2 appetizers (per table). We ordered Braised Pork Belly ($12) this was a 7/10 only because it was alot of fatty meat, Wings/Soy Garlic Flavor ($15) 10/10, french fries with the garlic sauce that it comes with on the side ($9), side of white rice ($2.50), for my drink a Blueberry Mojito ($14) 9/10 just wish it wasn't such a small amount with a Hefty amount of ice but it was good. Lemonade for my kiddo ($6.50 she said it was a 4/10) and for dessert Ube Tiramisu ($10.00) 1/10... We weren't a fan of the Tiramisu but overall everything was good. I definitely plan to return.

My husband got the customizable omelet and a black coffee. He was happy. I deeply regret not getting a cocktail or mocktail - the menu looked fantastic. The staff were really great and it was a great atmosephere. The jams were being pumped into the restaurant at a louder volume than usual for brunch to fit the social club/lounge vibe. The music was all good retro hits... I wouldn't mind eating breakfast every Sunday to the sounds of Earth Wind and Fire, Bill Withers and Stevie Wonder. People were singing along. It was a good morning. If you have mobility issues - there is a small step up for the bathroom and a limited number of low seated tables.

The place is full of eclectic artwork, televisions over the bar and great lighting. Seating is limited but roomy especially at the bar. There is a nice , inviting lounge area by the window. Definitely an INSTA worthy spot. Food is good enough and plenty of variety. Service was personable and food was prepared to order and served in a timely manner. Worth the drive from Providence and would definitely go again.

Honestly, I'm pretty disappointed with our experience tonight…read more Our bill was around $100, and unfortunately it was some of the worst food we've had in the area. We ordered steak tips medium rare and a chicken sandwich. The steak tips came out severely overcooked , burnt on the outside, tough, and hard as a hockey puck. The chicken sandwich seemed absolutely drenched in what tasted like Frank's RedHot or a similar hot sauce, completely overpowering everything else. What's frustrating is that we've eaten here before and had a great experience, which is why we came back. This visit felt completely different. I honestly wondered if there was a different chef in the kitchen. The service itself was okay, and to be clear, we weren't looking to make a scene or demand items be taken off the bill. However, most of the food was left on the plate, and nobody stopped by to ask if there was an issue or why it wasn't being eaten. Maybe this was just an off night, but based on this experience, it's hard to justify spending $100 here again.

I sent it back. However, everything else was spot on. My daughter had the chicken parm panini which she said was excellent. She took half of her sandwich home. She also got onion rings. Hot, thin and crispy and a cup of clam chowder which is always great and thick We shared the stuffed mushrooms which are always our go to. Served on a spread of lobster bisque I got the pork dumplings which were delicious. My grandson had the kids meal hotdog it was really big for a kids meal, served on a brioche bun I secretly asked for a lemon cake to celebrate their birthdays.

I ordered the fried goat on the side and was a little disappointed because it had a lot of fat and didn't have much flavor and it didn't come with the red sauce I had to ask for it. The legume with beef was good, although there wasn't a lot of beef in it. The black rice was really good, and the fried banana was absolutely delicious -- probably my favorite part of the meal. Just a warning: the pikliz was VERY spicy. Overall, some items were enjoyable, but the service and a few food issues made the experience hit or miss for me.

What a delicious and affordable gem of an Italian place!…read more I've visited 3x in 3 months, and Brava Cucina always hits the mark. Logistics: garbage parking is free, convenient, and available- we missed it the first time! Streetside was easy too. Ambience: perfect for a gathering with friends or a professional meal or even a date night! Music is at a tasteful volume Value: Unbelievable. $36 for an a foccacia, app, and entree is such a steal in this economy; available every day! The entree portions were sizeable as well! Food: everything from the focaccia to the salads, pastas, pork milanese, desserts, and drinks were wonderful. Speedy and kind service. Would highly recommend coming in a crew to try as many menu items!

If you are looking for diabetic friendly sides to swap, not so many options. Everything was delicious.

We do not know Canton and were so glad we found this place! Ironically our mother was named Elsie. We started with their delicious focaccia bread which was light and flavorful and had the calamari appetizer. Lightly breaded with two sauces and very good. The hostess and server were very friendly and engaging and food was served promptly. I had the Chicken Parmesan which was a good portion and the sauce was amazing! My sister had the Bolognese which was exceptional. Definitely a place we would return to and so glad we found it.

We also ordered their Caesar Salad which was good. I do remember this spot before it was Drifters and it was called Idle Hour which I loved so much. But I will say I am excited that a new pizza spot is now in its place. I think my next time that I try this will be physically at the restaurant. My only concern is that it is very loud. It is a great place to go watch sports for sure!

Grabbed drinks here with a friend on a Saturday night and wow was it busy!…read more There was live music when we first walked in so the ambiance was quite loud... like I could barely hear myself let alone hold a conversation. The place itself was small too so the music really overpowered everything. But once the live music wrapped up the vibes were good! Not too loud that I was screaming over it, but still lively. I got the Heart of Stone which was delicious! Not too sour or sweet, but was definitely a strong cocktail. I had 3/4 of it and I was already feeling it. My friend got an Old Fashioned and she was a big fan! It went down quite smoothly and tasted good too. For $14 a drink, it was a little pricy but honestly I've seen places in Boston charge more. I would recommend coming here to grab drinks but maybe not a spot to catch up because of how loud it was. Would love to try their food as it looked pretty good!
