"We arrived at 6:00 PM on a Monday, and the dining room was nearly full, with only two tables available. The noise level was overwhelming, almost unbearably loud. I even resorted to using earplugs meant for rock concerts, but they didn’t help much. Next time, I’ll opt for a seat in the bar area, where it was much quieter, without loud patrons trying to out-shout each other or children running around, which can be quite distracting. I do wonder when new parents will learn to manage their kids, as it used to be in the past when children were seen but not heard. Despite this, the food and portion sizes were impressive, and the service was good. My only real complaint was the overwhelming noise from other diners and their unruly children, which the restaurant cannot control. I would suggest visiting during the quieter hours in the afternoon, around 2-3 PM, to avoid the busy meal times. If you notice the parking lot is busy when you arrive, it might be best to sit in the bar if seats are available. By 7 PM on the night we visited, the bar was full with no available seats. My total bill was $34.90: - Veal Parmesan Sub: $7.95 - French Fries: $3.75 - Pepsi: $1.70 - Subtotal: $27.20 - Tax (MA meal tax): $1.70 - Tip: $6.00 The restaurant has ample free parking on the side, with accessible parking right at the front, complete with a wheelchair ramp leading to the entrance."

"SUMMARY Refused to finish our meals the only thing we will ever order again is the pizza (and that we will order for sure. The restaurant would give it a 1 2 stars for all other food, but the pizza would be a 4 5 so i gave a 3 star). Staff were polite and no doubt wonderful people. A place a home body might go for the sake of local tradition, but not somewhere I?d take an interviewee or to impress on a date night. We tried a pepperoni pizza, salmon with risotto, stuffed noodles with chicken/various cheeses, and the banana cake. The pizza had a great crisp edge with a nice chewy texture, basil hinted sauce with a fresh springy mozzarella, and subtlety spicy without overwhelming salty pepperoni (a lot of local pizzerias have pepperoni that?s way over salty) lending to a very pleasant and perhaps one of the best pizza experiences in the region (just be realistic and realize this isn?t NYC, Chicago, or Detroit). All of the other presentations were awesome but the eyes otherwise deceived the tongue! All 4 of us felt the same The salmon was overpoweringly ?fishy? and the first and only bite went out much faster than it went in. The risotto was fine but couldn?t redeem the quality of the fish. The stuffed shells tasted like something made with canned chicken and shredded cheese. Bland salty, boiled chicken with a ton of cheese. The banana cake was certainly fine but no more special than the box mix from any grocery store."
