I had an interview for a hostess/ server position at the Tavern in the Square in Fitchburg MA…read moreyesterday (08/25/26) Although I have been to the Shrewsbury Tavern multiple occasions with family and have LOVED the food, drinks and, servers... this was my first time coming to the Fitchburg restaurant. As soon as I walked in, I was struck by the open concept, aeriness, and "intimate- type" ambiance. It immediately gives one a sense of welcoming relaxation . The hostess GiGi presented her smiling face and engaging , friendly personality and brought me to a table , offering me a water while I awaited someone to conduct my interview. Within a few moments, a friendly woman named Becca arrived ( introduced herself as AM), shook my hand, and sat down across from me. It was one of the most engaging, relaxed interviews I have ever experienced. Despite my not having any hospitality experience ( I am a retired nurse of 46 blessed years).. she welcomed me there with open arms. We talked, laughed, and she made me feel like we had known each other for years. She was very professional, had wonderful things to say about the people working there, and the guests they serve.. and I came away feeling that this restaurant cared deeply about providing an outstanding environment where staff and guests alike would come away with wonderful experiences and memories that would last a lifetime.

Finally decided to check out this place. These guys have taken over the former location of…read moreSingapore and have really livened up the area with its welcoming lighting and outdoor seating. The primary reason I chose to eat here was because they have a full menu that's available all the way up until 11:00PM. This is perfect for me because I typically arrive home around 10:30PM and there are no good options open!! Parking is incrediblyly easy. If their specific parking lot is packed, you have the entire rest of the plaza to park in; especially the nearby Sherwin-Williams and Kappy's lots. This place is one of many locations in their chain and I am very familiar with them. They have great interior design that makes them an easy spot for a quick date or somewhere to chill and watch some kinda sport (like the World Cup right now!) I decided to order a feast with my wife; Bang Bang Broccoli ; I ALWAYS order this dish. It's always perfectly lightly crispy and the chili garlic sauce is perfect. It even stays crispy as a fridge leftover! Cornflake Fried Chicken Tenders (maple gochujang) ; my wife's funny. she thought this was legit Korean Fried Chicken because of how great the crispiness and the flavors were. This is a top pick if you're craving Bonchon or bb.Q Chicken but you don't want to make the long drive Korean Crispy Chicken ; I ordered this for my wife but she actually filled up on everything before taking a bite. This tastes great and the glaze used is actually the same sauce we chose on the chicken tenders mentioned above. Can't go wrong with this if you're more of a chicken sandwich than a chicken tendies person. Mac + Cheese ; I am actually not a big fan of Mac and Cheese and I ordered this specifically to go with the tenders. But honestly, this may have changed my opinion. Very delicious and cheesy and great for sharing in a group. One of the few Mac and Cheese in a restaurant I actually enjoy. Hot Honey Chicken Stack ; very very good!! but the hot honey glaze becomes nauseatingly sweet as you become more and more full, and as you reach the end of your plate and you're trying to finish off the rice that's been soaking in the glaze for the past half hour. The chicken itself was borderline dry which isn't a surprise since it appeared be thinly sliced breasts with a nice char. I probably won't ever get this again since I prefer the other chicken dishes above were more juicy. We didn't do any bar service, and the waitress did her expected job of making sure we had filled glasses and checking if the food was good. Nothing stand outs to complain or compliment. We had a great experience here and I am totally going to come back the next time I am craving dinner at 10:30PM.

Great seafood place!…read more Dined here with a big party and we were comfortably accomidated on a Friday night. This restaurant is very nice and spacious and offers a variety of seafood entree's for everyone. This time I ordered the lobster sandwich and it came with a choice of any side soup. I got the yummy clam chowder and it was very creamy and hot. There was a generous amount of lobster in my sandwich and I was happy about that. It tasted fresh and I really liked the seasoning. For appetizers we ordered their calamari and crab cakes which were also very good. The calamari was nice and crunchy and the The crab cakes were very flavorful. The fish entree's looked great and I was lucky enough to get a bite of each. Next time I want to get the flat fried fish! Yum! The service was great and everyone enjoyed their meal. Our waitress was very nice and knew how to take care of a large group.

It was obvious that the bartender did not want to be there and was not friendly, but that's ok, I was with someone else, so while a friendly bartend / waiter may be nice, it is not a requirement. We order fried pickles as an app while my burger was being made, my date ordered a salad with chicken. The fried pickles were good, but the burger and salad took a very long time to come out of the kitchen. There were only 3 other people in the entire restaurant. It was an usually long wait for a burger and a salad. The burger was good, but the fries were extremely rubbery and tasted old. The salad came out warm and tasted weird, as if it had been sitting out for 20 minutes under a lamp? It was uneatable, but the unfriendly bartender / waitress did not care. We did something to bother her, maybe we sat down to order food at the restaurant?? It was a horrible vibe. This was my 3rd time eating there over maybe a year. The first 2 times the food was ok, not great but not terrible, but after last night, I just cannot visit the Simple Man any longer. After the meal, we walked over to The Clinton Bar and Grill, sat at the bar, had a few drinks to wash away the bad energy of Simple Man and then recovered. With so many other choices, I will not be back at Simple Man.

I had dinner at Luccas American Kitchen last night with my wife and two friends, and I felt…read morecompelled to finally write a review because the entire evening was simply spectacular. I ordered the Swordfish Special, which was served with shrimp, risotto, and a light sauce that was a beautiful blend of Provençal and scampi influences. The swordfish was cooked perfectly, and the combination of the fish, shrimp, risotto, and delicate sauce was outstanding. It was flavorful and satisfying while still being a wonderfully light dish. One of our friends had never tried swordfish before and ordered the same dish. Needless to say, they are now officially "hooked!" The Korean Short Rib entrée was also excellent, with just the right amount of spice and tremendous flavor. My wife ordered the Fried Whole Belly Clams, which she absolutely loved. And the experience didn't stop with the food. The bar staff were top-notch--knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely enjoyable to interact with. Great service can make a good meal memorable, and the team at Luccas certainly did that last night. I have been to Luccas several times and have always had great experiences. Last night, however, was one of those evenings where everything came together--the food, the service, the atmosphere, and the company. Congratulations to the entire Luccas team. It was a fantastic dinner and a truly memorable evening. I highly recommend Luccas American Kitchen and look forward to coming back again soon!

The calamari was decent and the marinara sauce was very good. However, I felt subterfuge when the hot peppers were in rings just like the calamari. I ate 4 pepper rings before I bit into a calamari ring. My veal parm was very good and perfectly hammered "thin". The pasta was overcooked and sauced way too much. The raspberry filled beignets tasted phenomenal as well as the apple tart.

Tried the chicken karage (huge portions), shrimp tempura (5), Tod mun goong app (very tasty chicken and shrimp nugget) my favorite. Pad See Ew came with generous portion of grill pork - tasty.

It is so nice Chinese broccoli was in several of our dishes, perfectly cooked and crunchy. What a treat. Khao Kha Moon - save for another meal, rice dish with braised pork and veggies and egg.

Ambiance was comfortable and welcoming, other than the fact that it was a bit cold. We ordered the veggie potstickers as an app, which were very flavorful and tasty. For my main, I ordered the Khao Gai Yang, a dish with chicken, rice, veggies, and a sauce on the side. The chicken was juicy and well seasoned. My only complaint is that the sauce was quite fishy, which isn't to my personal taste. I would come back but try something else next time.

My favorite is the bacon wrapped dates, but everything is good, the lamb chops, the duck, octopus, chorizo. I wouldn't drink it anymore, but it's the first time I've seen Kalimoxo on any menu in the US... brings me back to when I was in high school in the Basque Country of Spain. I had a birthday party in the back room and that was a highlight, everyone who attended said we should all take turns hosting events there. The restaurant staff was very laid back about it in a good way, a few weeks in advance we just sort of asked if we could reserve it and then came up with a menu of things to bring out and drinks to have available and it worked out and was one of my best birthdays I can remember. We played our own music on a speaker we bright in, very chill and fun. Some nights they have live music and that has been fun as well. I'd recommend for a date night, girl's night, or a party like a birthday (adults only), office going away, small baby or bridal shower. Probably not the place for a business meeting. Great spot in Maynard, indoor or outdoor dining.

While seeming very promising, our experience here overall fell a bit flat in my opinion. We came…read morewith a reservation for 3 and got seated quite quickly, but we came pretty early for dinner so there were plenty of seats open around us. Despite this, we got sat at a pretty awkward table - very long and it made things difficult for sharing unfortunately. The menu had a good mix of dishes, all of which came out as soon as they were made. The paella came out last and took quite a long time - we were already pretty much full from our other dishes so just keep that in mind if you order it. Most of the dishes were lackluster - my favorite though was the eggplant, I enjoyed that the most. Everything else was small and not super flavorful. Paella was yummy, but pretty expensive for the portion. Overall, I probably wouldn't come back out of my own volition, but I didn't mind the food - I just don't think the price and quantity/quality of food matched.
