We had heard about this pop up Lobster Roll stand on the edge of Falmouth along the Woods Hole Rd…read more We found a day that they were open, when we were free on a quick trip to town this year. It's located in a parking lot area near an old pub and you can park in that lot if you stay to eat here. It is simple and plain, a small family run operation, and there is but one picnic table in a shady area with a lawn, if you want to stay and eat. Most people seemed to grab and go. We planned to stay and shared the table, first with a family visiting from VA and as they left, a local Uber Driver on a lunch break stopped by, which she said she did when she was in that part of town at lunchtime. We had casual conversations with both. The lobster was pre-measured in little bags, obviously steamed, shelled and portioned for rolls in a kitchen somewhere. The other foods offered were hot dogs for kids and andouille sausage on rolls too. There were typical canned sodas to drink and bags of chips. Cars stopped by and did literally, grab and go, causing some traffic backups and horn honking on such a busy road. It was the simplest and blandest roll of our trip, although freshly steamed lobster meat, which we cannot easily get at home in CO for such a low price. I'm not sure it is worth going out of your way for, but if you are driving by, it's a quick stop.

A food stand, we were looking for something out of the norm of the lobster rolls you get…read moreeverywhere. We appreciated the creativity of the roll, you don't find a lot of places on the cape trying to be different. We were on the cape for the summer and wanted something different. This was the 6th lobster roll we tried during our summer. This is more like a stand that you would find at a festival. I knocked a star off for the setting. I've come across a lot of these food stands all over the US, and they try the make the best of their low budget location and try to make a cute outdoor seating experience. They have one picnic bench, and the some more seating at this random building right by with rusty chairs. Some folks like us traveled an hour from another place on the cape to try this roll, us Chatham. We aren't taking it home, and had to eat it there. Wasn't any effort made to have outdoor seating. No table settings, lights, streamers nothing. Just one park bench. The roll itself is good, not the best but good and creative. It isn't spicy at all, more like a ketchup mayo on top. The celery dressing, gave it a nice crunch. The lobster is pre-measured in saran wrap. I get that for controlling your cost, it's just a cheap look to watch. Just have a scale and measure there. We got the roll pretty quickly as there wasn't much of a line on a Saturday in July at 11:30. I appreciated the creativity. I think this place could be 5 star with some tweaks on the roll and the setting. I think they could even add some more unique rolls. I want to give it a 3, but I just can't with it being a small business. I think they are on to something that people want a unique approach to a lobster roll. Worth a try, but I wouldn't stress it at its current state.

My drink was a dirty martini & it was a heavy pour & a decent drink. Again, not the best but very good. For the entree I wanted to order the sushi pizza.. yea you heard it right, I wouldn't have even considered it but by neighboring table got it & it looked FANTASTIC. However, I was away from home & did not want leftovers so I ordered the special sushi roll Crimson Tide & added Jalapeños. The Jalapeños were fresh & crispy, but did not lend any additional heat. I am a sushi snob, so it was not the best I've ever had, but it was decent. For most it would be good. The menu changes regularly, which was a little disappointing. It was different online, vs on Yelp vs in person & the prices were about $10 more than listed online, but overall, it wasn't a bad experience. I would recommend checking them out, just know it won't be cheap. I originally wanted the seared Tuna, but when I got here, it was halibut & it was $36 vs $22. I will include pics of the menu, but like I said, it's subject to change. OK, take this with a grain of salt. I would probably have made it a 4 vs 3 so I'm on the fence. Regan, my server explained that the additional $6 added to my $12 martini was not because it was a dirty martini, but because it was up vs on the rocks, so it was a bigger pour. It makes sense, but I have never seen this before.. make your own decisions.

Asti was still known as Estia when we were here a few years ago. Some overlap with another business…read morerequired them to change their name at some point since then, but we enjoyed the same great food and service this time too. It is on W. Main St in Falmouth on the first stretch off of Locust St, which is the Falmouth town name for the road to Woods Hole. There is street parking and a little lot alongside and behind it, though have never found space there. The Greek food is the best I have had since my years growing up in CT. We always have a good time and this summer we were able to get patio seats out front. It's cavernous inside and good for bad weather and large parties. We have eaten inside on other trips when it was colder or rainy. It's fine and comfortable seating and a bit roomier between tables. There are booths inside too. We ate dinner here the night we arrived and again the night before we left. It has become our tradition now. Both nights, we had excellent service and excellent food. We did have the exact same dessert both nights since we had liked it so well the first night and we didn't see anything more balanced for both of our tastes. And their desserts are large enough to share. We had a variety of appetizer items for a smaller meal the first night, tired from having driven from Hartford, via Narragansett, for a stop to see friends. It is the long way to the Cape from Hartford, but seeing our friends was worth it as they have never travelled to CO. The second night we chose larger individual plates based on the items we tried the first night and had another great meal. One of the plates was their enormous version of spanakopita and the other was a large plate of the lamb "lollipops," glorified yummy grilled lamb skewers. We had drinks too. All in all it was truly the quality of food we have come to expect from them. It is family owned and a very polished operation with a vibrant bar inside. All ages were represented in the customer base and I understand that the locals love it too, but they mostly attend off season. It and all of Falmouth was mobbed the week we were there, just before the annual Falmouth Road Race.

Businesses on Yelp that I have visited or have used will have earned my criticism if there is an…read moreurgent need for change or major overhaul before I slap them with a negative review. IMHO businesses that advertise & or are listed on Yelp would do themselves, employees & future clients/customers a service by taking negative reviews seriously. With that being stated, Asti's business owners/partners should take note of this customer's experience. Asti appears to have tons going for it. Its footprint is spacious, it has off street parking & its decor is pleasing & it has a lovely outside dining area. It also has earned many positive reviews on food. Unfortunately this customer cannot comment on the food as we walked out after being forgotten about after being shown a booth after what was a little bit of a wait -no line- at the unmanned reception podium. To set the scene, we arrived before the Saturday evening dinner crowd - with a few other diners already enjoying service & food. After being shown our booth, we did receive water & bread by the water & bread person & then waited & waited & waited while the water & bread person stood by idly, staring at us from time to time while other employees & the bartender went about their unhurried business - as it was a mostly empty restaurant - often glancing over at us with no apparent sense of urgency to get us attended to. In fairness to the server who was attending to a couple of other tables near our booth, he did 'eventually' ask if we had been seen to & with our affirmation that we had not, he hurried off to the back mumbling where could so & so be ? Apparently so & so was assigned our table but was nowhere to be found. We continued to wait & wait then we left. On the way out the door we did mention to an employee that was walking towards the reception podium ( looked like mgmt ) that we were leaving due to lack of service. There was no reply. Exiting, we observed several employees engaged in light hearted convo with each other in the outside dining area that had yet to have any customers seated. Disappointed, we trudged down the block & took our chances at what looked to be a very busy Mexican restaurant where most outside tables were occupied & actively served. Well you know what they say, when one door closes, another one opens. We immediately were escorted to one of last inside tables & received, for the hour or so spent there, excellent food & drink & quick & friendly service. I had sincerely looked forward to a meal at Asti & though I may return to pick up a take home pizza, we won't attempt a sit down experience anytime soon.

Me and my boyfriend just had breakfast here today. I ordered the lobster benefit and was so excited to give it a try. It did not live up to my expectations at all. From just looking at it, you can see how dry the lobster was. The taste was bland and definitely not worth $14 for only little bits of lobster. Pancakes were good, but that's not something you can really mess up. I wouldn't come here again for breakfast. read more
