    We always enjoy Markoh's for cocktails and dinner. The food never disappoints, and the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. Depending on the size of the crowd, it can range from very quiet to boisterous.

    Dined on Valentines Day with my wife and it was amazing. Food and service was top notch. I keep thinking about the grilled shrimp and polenta appetizer. It was incredible. Wish we had room for dessert because the German Chocolate Cake looked delicious. Will definitely be going back soon.

    I always have a delicious meal and a fun time at True West. I moved to Boxborough a year ago, so I bring a lot of friends over after they come to visit my new home. I have never had a bad meal, service experience, or time at True West! My guests always love it! I’m so grateful to have True West in my neighbourhood. And if it weren’t, I would travel to it. It’s got a great down- to-earth feel with excellent service, food, beer, and ambience. What more could you want?
