The gnocchi were great, and the cocktail I had (perro salado see pic) was really different and tasty, though pricy. We split a bunch of smaller dishes to try, good approach. The bread board seemed a bit small. Double chocolate cake was delicious. Our server and the team were very good. Ambiance was fine. read more

Cedar Street Grille - New American Near Me - Sturbridge, Massachusetts

Just enjoyed a great meal at Cedar Street Grille. After a long day of our daughters dance competition, three families went out for dinner. The restaurant is clean and updated with nice ambiance. The menu is my kind of menu, small plates and large plates to choose from. I went with three small plates. Bacon wrapped dates stuffed with goat cheese were fantastic. The bacon was cooked evenly aka the entire piece was crispy, the date was sweet and tender, and the goat cheese provided the creaminess to tie it all together. The lamb chops were cooked to a perfect doneness and paired with a zesty sauce. The grass fed beef sliders featured nicely cooked high quality beef that was also sauced well. My wife really enjoyed her salmon entree and my daughter enjoyed Mac and cheese and fried pickles. If we lived nearby, we'd be back often. If we return to the area, we'll stop at the Cedar Street Grille. read more

My friend and I stopped in with our kids for an early dinner after a visit to Sturbridge Village. They have a full gluten free menu with plenty of options, and a great non-allergy menu. Our kids really enjoyed the fried pickles and the mac & cheese. My friend got the risotto with chicken added, and I had the gluten free hummus plate and a half salad. We had a great meal and our server, Rachael G, was absolutely wonderful. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area again! read more

Excellent food. Gyro app. Amazing flavors and great big pile of meat, pita bread is excellent. Chicken slider app. Also delish flavors, a bit of a kick to them, bit more bread than meat than I like but otherwise excellent. Mac and cheese. Phenomenal. Big portions of all the good stuff. Garlic shrimp app banging with flavors Fried pickles, just the right amount of crunchy. Fried goat cheese on fall cobb salad was gigantic ! I thought they had accidentally thrown a burger in the frier! Big fan of the food here read more

A very relaxing and low key late lunch on a Wednesday afternoon ... friendly staff. We sat in the bar area on a comfy high top. Sipped a nice "by the glass" Riesling. We decided to order several appetizers for lunch versus individual meals. The scape hummus was to die for. The burger sliders were terrific with fresh spicy arugula. But our favorite by far is the dates. They were prepared, wrapped in bacon and were absolutely luscious. Of incredible Combo of sweet and salty. We'll definitely be going back again. read more

We went to Cedar Street on Easter for brunch. Food was really creative for me, and then basic for my 96 year old dad. He was so impressed that you could get a great breakfast in a "real" restaurant plus a glass of Chardonnay! Service was impeccable, and the ambience was really nice. Even though the dining room is smaller, you aren't drowned out by others' conversations due to some inventive noise reducing ceiling panels. Can't wait to dine here again. read more

Excellent selection of eclectic dishes in various serving sizes. Seated promptly (no reservations!) and server was at the ready from the jump. Cozy atmosphere as the place is divided into separate sections. Definitely recommend! read more

Serendipity brought us here. Good job Serendipity!Good food. Effective and tasty drinks. Excellent service. Good ambiance.

anytime we're in the area, we eat at the Cedar Street Grille which never disappoint. food is great, service is friendly and efficient and the ambiance is pleasant. read more

The food was excellent for both parties. It did feel a little crowded. This is one of those times I want to be selfish and not recommend a place because the more good recommendations they get, the harder it will be to get in. The service was also top notch. I would consider getting there earlier than your reservation as the parking is tough. I had to hang in the parking lot several minutes before a space opened up. read more

A gem and honestly I'm not sure about leaving this review because I don't want too many people to know about this place, lol. If your idea of a nice dinner is at Lock 50, Via, even Anya... make sure you try Cedar Street Grille. Far less pretentious than some of those (sorry, love those places too but telling it how it is.) BUT the menu is on par in terms of quality, creativity and flair... really excellent. Brunch especially not to be missed, along with the brunch cocktails. PS. If you're Management, reading this review, no you didn't; don't raise your prices, please & thank you. Also there are not many things I miss about early pandemic days BUT I do kinda miss that little stint when you guys were operating out of the Wight Barn across the street, though, if you could find a reason to bring that back. read more

Food: nothing wowed. Overpriced for quality of food. Service: attentive staff. Ambiance: a bit boring and they use paper as a table cloth. read more

I had never been to the Cedar Street Grille and I was very impressed. We started out with a lot of small plates and they all were delicious. My favorite was the Goat Cheese, bacon stuffed dates and the whipped ricotta! I ordered the Harvest Grain Bowl with a side of scallops! The Harvest Grain bowl was filled with red winter berries, sweet potato, shaved Brussel sprouts, apple, pickled beets, mushrooms, pepitas, watercress and herb aioli. I added the scallops to the bowl. The scallops were delicious, very fresh and seasoned perfectly. I love scallops because they are light and add a great flavor to any dish! We also got dessert, which was a pumpkin tasting icecream cake that we had to break. That dessert was delicious and it did not taste too sweet which is nice. It was a perfect way to end a delicious meal read more

Parking was a nightmare; I drive a truck and finding parking was hard. It didn't help a green Rubicon thought parking in a space was not for him so he parked along side road. I did not make reservations; normally for "one" doesn't require one. There was a couple ahead of me who had not ordered yet so I knew they would be served before me. I was able to finish my Coke and still no service; my server was bartending too. I've done both, customers suffer when one does both serve and make drinks. I finally left after paying for my Coke and no service. Young man working said he was also working area? Does that make not getting service a valid argument. Not sure I will go back. I wasn't impressed with limited menu items. read more

Went here for Fathers Day Brunch with another couple. They had a "drunk pig" on special for a cocktail. It was a Four Roses Old Fashioned with some bacon infusion. Sounds horrible, but it was amazing. I would love the actual ingredients because it seems like a nice counter part to a Bloody Mary with bacon... dont like a bloody? Well try this... I ordered the steak and eggs, dont order them. The steak is flavorless, almost like they put it in a water bath. I either caught them on a bad day, or this is how they cook it without any salt, pepper, or other seasonings. I should have know when I saw other people order it, and their steak was already pre cut up. Stay away from this, if you like steak at all.. But the other meal items were awesome. Bacon side 10/10. Hash side 9/10. My wife had the lobster Benedict, it was awesome. Staff was 1000/10. We always are worried with going out with young kids. But it was fathers day. I WILL be trying Cedar again at some point for brunch. Just staying away from the steak. Thank you for a great experience. read more

Excellent food and even better service - already planning to go back. Highly recommend.

Yesterday a group of close friends enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Cedar Street Grille. None of us live nearby, but it has become our go to spot whenever we want to meet up. The food and service were outstanding, as always. I also want to give a shout out to Rachel, who was the most cordial and attentive server one could ever hope for. Rachel, with her warm, friendly manner, made our dining experience even better. I believe I speak for all of us when I say that we look forward to returning again soon and hope she is there to take care of us again. See ya soon, Cedar Street. read more

The food was by far some of the best food I have ever eaten! It was prepared in an up -scaled way. Delicious! The service was amazing and the drinks so good with lots of options. The restaurant atmosphere was great. Can't wait to go back. Try this one. You do t be dissatisfied. read more

Great food and a lovely, softly, lit atmosphere. Their specials are always great. Their Mac-n-cheese is unrivaled. They have a great gluten free menu. Their gluten free bread and pasta actually taste wonderful. They buy it for Someplace in Boston that buys it from Italy. Apparently they use ancient wheat seeds that do not contain gluten. Worth inquiring about. They have a nice varied menu. I always seem to have the same lovely, mature woman as my server - she's great! Great food, great drinks, great atmosphere. read more

One of our favorite stops when up in the area. Staff is wonderful and attentive. Always delicious cocktails and good selection of beer. Don't forget to order the Mac and cheese and truffle fries! read more

We were in Sturbridge to visit Sturbridge villages Christmas by candlelight. We had a reservation and had to ask if we could come later. The restaurant was so accommodating and our server was fantastic. The food was delicious. This is definitely a must try place. read more

This is a great restaurant! The gluten free options are amazing (they have gluten free specialty Mac and cheese!) and the cocktails are absolutely delicious! My girlfriend and I went here and she tried oysters for the first time and she loved them! The citrus/horseradish mixture they put in with them was really really delicious! The tables are a little bit cramped, though. Still, I highly recommend a trip here! read more

This is a great place to dine. Never been disappointed with their dishes. The ambience is great and their service is excellent. Their tapas are great and the variety of stages is good too. Although we've been there without reservations and have been disappointed without a seat on at least three occasions, the lesson is book and go . We are still learning! read more

What a great place. We were driving through the area and found Cedar Street on Yelp. The food was fantastic and the service was even better. And the bartenders made great drinks! read more

I came here at 4:30pm on a Saturday and was told they had no tables available for the rest of the night but we could sit at a bar. (There were 2 of us.) The restaurant was mostly empty and it stayed that way. When we were leaving the same tables we had asked for had been empty the whole time. On the way out I told the manager he could have given us a table, and instead of apologizing he argued with me and said we just got there and should have told them we would have be quick. (We had been there over an hour.) The short female manager also joined in the arguing and said they have to plan the whole night and we should have made a reservation. Again, we came at 4:30pm. The service was pretty subpar and with the rude management I won't be going back. read more

Still going strong. Great innovative cocktails and eye catching presentation. Food is also creative and very tasty. Loved our waiter - he was so helpful with recommendations, gave us time but was very attentive, and had a cheery attitude all night. read more

Drove to sturbridge to meet up with some friends, this place was really good! The Ambiance was cozy, a perfect place to catch up with friends. I tried their fried chicken plate. It had hot honey, au gratin fingerling potatoes and sautéed spinach. The chicken was really good, I will say the potatoes were okay, I think they were a little under-seasoned for my preference but nothing that a little salt and pepper can't fix. I will be back though because I did not have a chance to try their small plates and they sounded DELICIOUS! Make sure you make some reservations, parking is a little limited but we were able to find a spot in their parking lot. Our waitress was awesome and very attentive. Try this place if you are around Sturbridge, MA. I cant wait to go back! read more

Cedar Street Grille - Buttermilk Fried Chicken - New American Near Me - Sturbridge, Massachusetts

We have been here many, many times and have never had a bad experience. My husband and I live in town and love Cedar Street. The menu rotates to give variety but they don't get rid of the favorites. The staff is very attentive and nice, whether you're a regular or brand new. Shout out to Pat, the manager, who I always see running around and doing whatever needs to be done (running food, bussing, etc.). The staff seems to genuinely like each other, and that's always a plus for me. read more

Delicious, creative menu served by lovely people! We enjoyed the beet salad, antipasto, and pork osso buco! Truly wonderful experience! read more

Cedar Street Grille - Antipasto! The whipped feta was amazing! - New American Near Me - Sturbridge, Massachusetts

Met old friends for Sunday brunch here. What an outstanding place. We are at a bar hightop that was quite large. Great server (Max), had four bloody Mary's, came with 3 olives, pearl onion, garlic clove and stalk of celery, tasted very home made. Brunch was, outstanding homemade corned beef hash with 2 eggs and sourdough toast, avocado toast like you have never seen before with quinoa, tomatoes, goat cheese, sliced avocado and squash, chef's omelette and then country breakfast with eggs, sausage hash browns toast, started meal sharing dates stuffed with goat cheese wrapped with bacon drizzled with balsamic reduction. Entire meal was outstanding but unexpected, we had not been here before. Now it is our go to meeting spot or stop on way to or from Boston. Don't miss this place!!! read more

Crazy good food!! Had the small plates for lunch with my wife....Angry Shrimp, Lamb Tortellini and Chicken Satay Sliders. Absolutely perfect!! We both wanted the Lamb Tortellini as a full course after trying. First time there and love one off places who actually prepare food as opposed to all the chains. Staff were excellent and attentive. The foot print is fairly small and they have a small bar, but this place is a gem and worth finding. We drove 45 minutes to try a lunch and it was worth the trip. Will be back again soon!!! Sorry, forgot to take pictures. read more

Staff was the best, helpful with beer samples, plate recommendations, etc. Food was tremendous and we both recommend the Poutine with a braised rib and the garlic shrimp with Syrian bread. The place lost power due to an automobile taking out a nearby transformer and everything still went smoothly. Emergency lighting and they had just put out table candles by happenstance!!!!! Very romantic , lol! Sorry forgot to take pictures of the plates but were impressive. read more

Very surprised by my visit to Cedar St today...used to love it here but not so much after today... Got lunch with a friend, we ordered several plates Crab cake $16 - one tiny small crab cake.. maybe 4 oz of meat.. that's ridiculous Fried pickles $8 - Delicious Fried Goat cheese. $9 they used to give you two pieces now only one but still delicious Poutine $14.00 - such a small portion. Overall their food is good but they have become quite scrimpy over the past 2 years and increased prices which is fine but don't also cut way back on amounts... Our waitress never brought us our check had to flag someone else down.. then she never came to our table after to acknowledge us and watched us walk right by her out the door. It was also not busy.. Would recommend the duck or porterhouse over cedar st read more

Very good food, tapas style. Very kind service. Solid cocktails. It can get busy so I recommend reserving a table. Definitely check it out.

Fantastic drinks and food with great service, and lovely ambiance! I'm so happy I visited Cedar Street Grille twice while staying in Sturbridge. I love their menu! read more

Honestly loved so much about this place! It's a very cozy ambiance and my friend and I loved our experience. It was pretty busy for a weeknight but we got a table no problem. Loved our waitress too. We shared the popcorn cauliflower, lamb Tortellini, chicken satay sliders, and sweet potato fries. The cauliflower was delicious but not what I expected (I read popcorn and assumed it'd be battered ala popcorn chicken but it was not, it seemed roasted) but still had great flavor and the sauce with it rocked. The Tortellini was OUT OF THIS WORLD! I wish they had this dish on the entree menu vs small plates because it was perfection. So flavorful and so rich! read more

First experience here and what a great one! I had no idea what to expect but was pleasantly surprised by the casual yet elegant dining experience. The two bartenders were ten out of ten amazing. The hummus appetizer was delicious. They offer a diverse and unique drink specials menu. I can't wait to go back ! I can't believe I've lived so close and never been. read more

Creative cocktails, delicious food, impeccable and personable servers. We have been here for brunch, dinners, and holidays and it always exceeds expectations. read more

Went here for a pre-wedding dinner with my family and have to say the experience was pretty good! The server was pretty good, given the size of the party, and the food and drinks were brought out in a timely manner. The food itself was quite good and definitely something I would go back for if I was in the area. It was a but loud, there was no separate area or anything and it was pretty busy but overall it wasn't the worst restaurant I have been to on that front. read more
