Keep in mind you will have to place all apps and main course all at once. I believe there a time limit for dinner but our waitress was super cool and did not mentioned it any time until the end. So my wife and I didn't feel rushed which was nice. Drinks are very good here! We tried few different drinks and all of them were excellent. Food here was on the money. Everything we ordered was tasteful, no complaints. We ordered the long bone steak . Recommend. Going into this restaurant we figure it will be pricey, which is fine for quality and experience. Business attire is required according to the website which I'm ok with. If you're looking for quality food and don't mind paying for it , this is the place. For me , it was worth it and had such a great time. I'd go back again. Steak lovers give it a shot ! Why not

The beer selection is great and exactly what you want in a place like this. I have had the stew and the shepherd's pie on different visits, and both were very good. Classic Irish comfort food done well and consistent with the overall vibe. Service has been top-notch every time. Friendly, attentive, and consistent without being overbearing. It adds to the experience and makes it an easy place to return to. The decor and ambiance are very typical of an Irish bar. Warm, comfortable, and easy to settle into for a while. One of the things I like most is the amount of space. There is plenty of room overall, and the bar itself is long with lots of seating, which makes it easy to grab a spot or get seated even when it is busy. They also have Irish music here fairly often, which fits the place well, though I have not been in when it is happening. Bunratty is a great choice for a few drinks or a casual meal. It is reliable, comfortable, and properly run. I will give it a well deserved four star review.

Four of us visited Oye's for dinner on a busy Saturday evening. While we expected a wait due to the…read morecrowd, what was disappointing was the lack of service once seated. We sat for about 10 minutes before anyone came to our table, and when a server finally arrived, drinks were rushed out and it felt like we were pressured to place our food order immediately. One member of our group is gluten-free, and while they did offer a gluten-free menu, it lacked creativity and felt like an afterthought compared to the regular menu. We also didn't feel confident that the allergy was taken seriously. The server didn't ask many questions or clearly communicate any precautions regarding cross-contamination, which is something we've experienced at many other restaurants. The food itself was okay, but nothing memorable. The gluten-free chicken and vegetables were extremely bland and lacked flavor. The chicken also seemed undercooked, which was concerning. We ordered four different sushi rolls, and overall I'd rate the sushi about a 5/10. The spicy edamame leaned much sweeter than spicy, although some people may enjoy that flavor profile. The crab rangoons were decent but nothing special. Throughout the meal, service continued to be lacking. We never received a check-in after our food was delivered and had to flag down our server multiple times just to get water refills. The lack of attentiveness from the staff was frustrating, especially considering the prices. The restaurant has plenty of seating, but it was very loud, making conversation difficult at times. Overall, the experience wasn't terrible, but it certainly didn't justify the cost. Unfortunately, it's not a place I'd recommend to friends, and I don't see myself returning.

Vast. Like, "do-I-need-a-compass-to-navigate-this" vast, with plenty of options. It's always amusing to me how different parts of the U.S. have their own regional food quirks (like here in MA, where steak tips, roast beef sandwiches, and open-faced turkey sammies reign supreme). I was stuck between a couple of local specialties, but our delightful waitress, Haley, steered me in the direction of the Thanksgiving turkey sandwich, mentioning they roast a turkey every day (cue angels singing). I swapped out the fries for onion rings, because, duh! This sandwich? It could have fed a small village. It was a beast. A delicious beast, but an unwieldy one. I ended up abandoning the bread for the good stuff and tackled it with a knife and fork. All in all? Absolutely scrumptious. Bonus points for the bathrooms, which were clean as a whistle, and fear not! If you're afraid of missing the a Celtics 3 pointer or a Red Sox baseball toppling over the "green monstah" while nature calls, there's a giant screen perfectly viewable from the toilet. Yes, you can literally watch the game while you pee. Talk about a win-win situation!

On my visits, I had Sam Adams Juicy IPAs with a really good beef stew. Another time, I went with a Maine Lunch and corned beef and cabbage over St. Patrick's weekend. My companion had a chicken wrap and a couple of glasses of Chardonnay on one visit, and the Irish stew with more Chardonnay on another. The menu is strong and covers all the classic pub options well. I have posted photos of it. Inside has that classic Irish pub feel. Cozy, a little tight when it gets busy, but that is part of the charm. It tends to draw a crowd, which is always a good sign. Service was decent. Maybe not the fastest, but always friendly and courteous, which matters more in a place like this. Overall, this is a reliable local spot with good food, solid drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere. I am writing this after just a couple of visits, but I am sure I will be back. Two thumbs up.

I found myself in familiar territory and surroundings when I returned stay the Lakeview Inn hotel…read morefor a night, away from metro Boston in early May 2025. I arrived here via uber and decided to have dinner at the hotel's main restaurant, the Lakeside Tavern. This Yelp review is for the restaurant only and not the hotel. I arrived here around 9:30pm. I opted to get dinner here first before checking into the hotel for the night. The service that night I was here was crazy slow. They had loud live band music and the vibe here was generally an older crowd on a Thursday evening in May 2025. I found a seat next to the bar near the kitchen and after 15 minutes of waiting for someone to take my order, I walked to the cash register and waited for someone to arrive. I ended up getting one of their signature meals for the evening and that was that. Since it was close to 10pm that evening, the music was winding down. I ended up waiting about 20 minutes for my food to arrive. It came in a takeout container with a plastic bag. I would have gotten something at Boston, Logan International Airport, but it was after 8 PM when I arrived and nothing in the terminal was open for me. With that said, I was happy that the Lakeside Tavern was open for anybody and everybody who was wanting to be there. For lunch, dinner, or just hang out and listen to live music with adult beverages. For me, though, I just need dinner after a long day of travel to Boston from Honolulu. I was glad that they were until 10 PM, otherwise I would have took an Uber to see what was around at the time near the hotel that serve food. The overall experience at the lakeside Tavern here in Wakefield, Massachusetts was typically OK, although I was starving and wanted quicker service that night. While the service was very slow, it was nice to partake in the live music that night. The ambiance was chill and friendly. The service was friendly and welcoming too. For the most part though, the experience here was pretty good and most likely will come back again get my troubles permit me to do so. I'll try to get here as quick as I can, but then again their travel is normally the same as it was 10 years ago. The restaurant itself was very clean, although it was dark enough to wear I can't see much. I just was glad that this restaurant at the hotel I was staying at for the night was open and grateful that they were still serving food while I was there. If you decide to stay at this hotel, consider dining in the Lakeside tavern because it is basically on property. You don't need to go elsewhere for your meals if you don't need to. If you're lazy like me, this restaurant is your best bet if you're staying at the hotel. Definitely recommended if you are one of those people who just don't wanna leave the hotel for some reason if you're staying here at the Lakeside inn in Wakefield Massachusetts. The Lakeside Tavern is located inside the Lakeside Inn in Wakefield, Massachusetts. As soon as you enter the lobby, the entrance to the restaurant is on your left. Can't miss it. It is physically located at 595 North Avenue in Wakefield. They accept major credit cards as well as cash. As far as parking goes, they have a generous and huge parking lot for anybody and everybody who wishes to come here to stay or dine. Or both. Please share the parking spaces with a few other commercial retailers in the vicinity. There is a bank nearby, if you need cash. There is actually public transportation service to and from the hotel into Boston. I did not know this until my most recent trip here and decided to save a little bit of money and ride the local bus service into downtown Boston from Wakefield. It was pretty cool. Don't recommend it if you are traveling in the evening and don't know where you are if you are a tourist. So yes, there is public transportation options to and from the hotel, and they will depend on your original destination, whether it is the Amtrak station or Boston Logan international airport in Boston. And with that said, they have a limited menu, so be prepared for anything they have. The prices here were decent for any restaurant in the area. But if you're desperate and hungry, it's kind of worth it, especially when you're staying at the hotel for the night and you're starving. Which is what my situation was at the time. It was a quick stop for dinner that ended up being something other than quick. But if you like the loud live music to decompress after a nice day of traveling or a hard day at the office, consider coming to the lakeside Tavern for a good meal and to decompress. I'm sure they have alcohol service here, but I did not want to drink so late at night. 3.5 stars for the overall experience, mostly for the slower than normal service. But it is pretty good 5.0 stars for the location, because I was staying here. Support local! C+
