It paired nicely with the red sangria, too. We will absolutely be back - if their other dishes are as good as what we were treated to this time, I can't wait to try more!

So I get a large Chip's Tip sub and a few pastries for snacks. The bill was steep for what I got but I thought it would be worth it for my son to try the sub. After getting it, we split the sub and ate it in the car. Let me tell you that this was not the same steak tip I remembered. It was so bad, we tossed it in the garbage at the gas station next door. The steak was very tough and hard to chew - almost like the tips had been cooked earlier and then reheated for my order. Everything just seemed greasy. We also did not enjoy the raspberry turnover or yellow cream cannoli's we got for dessert. Maybe it was us or maybe it was the food but I will never go there again. We are not food snobs by any stretch of the imagination, and I rarely will say anything bad about a restaurant experience but we ended up going to Augusta's which is just a little bit down the road, for chicken just to erase this experience from our mouths. I know a lot of people will swear by their steak tip subs and that is great but it's just not for me anymore.

I have been wanting to try Southie Cookie for awhile and finally got the opportunity! We ordered…read morefrom one of our fave pizza places - Union Park Pizza - and they had two options on their menu! They had the classic chocolate chip and a "flavor of the month" - spiced apple pie. We got one of the spiced apple pies to share and I wish we had gotten two. We warmed the cookie for 15 seconds in the microwave and it was perfect. Soft in the center but a little crisp in some places. The flavor was on point, tasted like a piece of apple pie inside a cookie. Was one of the best I've ever had! We will definitely be trying more flavors. They ship via USPS priority mail so would make excellent gifts for our family. We cannot wait to share the cookie love. Highly recommend!

The servings are generous, the toppings abundant, and the ice cream itself is frozen perfection. Honestly, if there's a better way to spend a summer evening, I haven't found it. The setup is charming in its simplicity: a cozy little spot tucked between the stand and a neighboring building, picnic tables slightly shielded from the street. It feels almost like you've stumbled on a secret ice cream speakeasy, except the password is just "two scoops, please." Service? Quick, courteous, and top-notch--exactly the kind of people you want handing you sugar in frozen form. So why not five stars? Because the prices are... let's say "aspirational." The kind of numbers that make you check twice to make sure you didn't accidentally buy equity in the place. Delicious as it is, ice cream probably shouldn't cost the same as a casual sit-down lunch. That said, Nanabette's still delivers one of the best cones you'll find in Woburn. Just maybe bring a second wallet--you know, in case you want sprinkles.

As soon as my husband opened his mouth to order, he shook his head and very aggressively said "No frappes!" It was very clear to us he just didn't want to make it for us because he had cleaned. Listen, as someone who worked in food service, if you advertise that you don't close until 9:30, you make what the customer asks for and clean the machine again. We will never be returning to Mike's or Breakers again. Which is a shame because I liked the pizza a lot.
