   We took 8 girls and 4 adults for an 11th birthday celebration. The waitstaff were excellent. My only complaint is that we were charged for a “birthday dessert.” I would have ordered her something different if I knew it wasn’t complimentary (as is customary in most places).

   It was very crowded and therefore pretty loud. Most everything was average except the service which was very good. We were seated 15 minutes later than our reservations which was disappointing.

   Just apps and drinks before the Wicked movie. Our waitress was the sweetest!

   We had a lovely meal with our whole family to celebrate a birthday. Everyone’s meals were delicious and the service was great. We had a large group and it all went very smoothly. We’ll be back.

   Everything was great except we sat by the door and it was breezy and COLD employees would just hold the door open as they walked in and out.

   We enjoyed a nice get together with friends to watch a Patriots game. Our server Gianna was excellent!

   We were seated in the “exterior” section (plastic covered walls) it was chilly and there were no shades to alleviate the intense sun glare. The music was blaring and when asked if the volume could be lowered, the football game was then broadcast at deafening sound. Our server read the specials and when it came time to order we were told, no, the specials are in the full menu and that wasn’t available. 3 of my family member had planned on ordering a special. Only the brunch menu was available we were told. All in all, my family’s meals looked decent, I ordered the fish tacos and sweet potato fries. The fish tacos were barely edible, one tiny piece of fish in each and the meager portion of fillings didn’t even fill each taco - very disappointing and the fries were cold and shriveled, most overcooked. Other dishes on the table had good looking sweet potato fries. The fish and chips looked good with a generous portion of fish, 3 family members had them and liked them. One family member ordered a Bowl meal and enjoyed it. It looked good. We waited a very long time for dessert and the check. I recommend sitting in the main section of the restaurant, it was peaceful and warm looking, and steer clear of the fish tacos.

   This is our go-to restaurant. The menu is large with a variety of choices, and plenty of gluten free options. Although the restaurant is huge, the noise level is manageable. The service is very quick, and the manager came to apologize at one point, when the service wasn't even slow. The fish tacos were especially good, sweet potato fries always a winner, but sadly the chicken pot pie was a bit dry. Portion sizes are large. Be sure to make a reservation, this place is always busy.

   The wait was 2 minutes. Service and food were great. We were looked in a few times to make sure we were good. I’ll go back in a week.

    My daughter and I had dinner at Littleton‘s Tavern in the Square on a Wednesday night following a movie at the cinema just up the hill. Our server, Tennille (guessing at the spelling of her name, sorry!) was wonderful! Her smile and greeting immediately made our night - as she approached and welcomed us, she genuinely looked so happy to see us, and so happy to be there herself! What a lovely person - amazing hospitality! The food was great, too! I had the kale salad with grilled chicken and a cranberry balsamic vinaigrette. Every bite was delicious! Sometimes when a restaurant offers a side of grilled chicken with a salad it’s not so good - this was very nicely seasoned and charred. My daughter ordered the ahi tuna bowl, which she also loved! The kitchen forgot to include the aïoli, but Tennille was happy to bring it to our table afterward. The restaurant was pretty crowded, and a little loud, but our wonderful server and the great food made it a very nice experience!
