Finally decided to join them on their quest, went around 12pm, aka the Hunger Games. The line was no joke, however, it moved faster than I expected. The lady who took my order was very friendly and quick. I got the chicken bites with ranch and BBQ, plus a Coke. The chicken? Crispy, juicy, per usual. The sauce combo definitely helped! This is definitely more of a go in and get out type of place. It wasn't overly loud. The chicken orders seem to come out way faster than anything else some people who ordered sandwiches were still waiting while I was already out the door. They've got chips, drinks, even ice cream. Bottom line, if you haven't been, it's a. If you have, go again. This place is staying in my lunch rotation until further notice.

I had the loaded tots with crawfish and siracha remoulade, and my partner had a bowl with quinoa, avocado, squash, cranberries, and chicken. I've never seen him eat so many vegetables--but he finished that bowl because it was delicious! The tots were crispy and perfect, even with the sauce. Quite an accomplishment with a high degree of difficulty! And there were big chunks of crawfish, which was delicious and just the right texture, a little chewy which really added to the dish. No need to add pictures because they are exactly as pictured on the website. I visited the truck when they were parked at Dirigible brewery. I placed the order online, and was notified when it was ready. Perfect! I look forward to patronizing this truck again!

My table ordered a burger, a buffalo chicken pizza, a chicken bacon ranch salad, and a Greek salad.

I wish it came with a slightly bigger piece of chicken. Overall, good place to grab a bite if you're in the area and don't mind compromising a bit of quality for the view.

The outdoor igloo seating seemed like a risky choice (it's only outdoor seating or take out here) but we went for it anyway. You're seated in your own igloo, it was about a 40 degree night and we stayed comfortable keeping our light jackets on. We enjoyed our time and our food eating-in, that we will order from this market again in the future. We both ordered the spicy mango margarita, which tasted very good. I don't think the drinks are made fresh? Can't confirm, but I believe I saw something premixed poured into the glass I was served. We ordered the charred veggie hummus and it was some of the best hummus I've ever tasted. If they're not actually making that stuff fresh they had me fooled, so I will guess that they are. The pita was warm, fresh, and fluffy. We each got one of the bowl entrees -- the steak and a salmon bowl -- the portions were generous and the fresh, veggie forward entree was exactly what was needed for an out-of-town stop (you can only eat so much bar food out here). Overall, I've read the bad reviews and can totally see how this place would be a gamble depending on what you order. But from my experience I had no truly bad remarks, and I would definitely return.

Some are drive-thru only (like the one near my house). I'm gonna talk about the former real quick. Naturally, the menu is basically the same. On this day, I was having lunch. Ergo, I opted to try the Chipotle Short Rib & Egg burrito (as a bowl because I'm a man of culture) accompanied with a cup of chowdah. I must say...I expected there to be a bit more flavor, what - with the Chipotle sauce n' all. Alas, I had to add my own salt. This is mostly a nitpick, but really...can we please season our beef? Just a lil bit even? So, the biggest difference you'll notice at this location is the parking situation. It's....annoying. Because on the one hand, you technically have ample amounts of spaces to park in. Or...you WOULD, if not for the signs en masse that read "[insert corporate company name here] parking only - all violators will be towed at owner's expense." I find this hilarious because I feel like that would be impossible to enforce for folks parking less than 10 minutes to pick up an order like I did. So, I guess my pro tip of the day would be: feel free to park wherever at your own risk if and ONLY if you're getting take-away. If you're actually dining in, I suppose you'll have to wait painstakingly for one of the few parking spots actually designated for Pressed specifically to open. By the way, if you're picking up a take-away order, the take-out shelf is smack dab next to their side entrance opposite the side where you would normally order your food. It's one of those "blink once and you'll miss it" type things the first time visiting. From my vantage point, this place stays quite busy. Not surprising, considering the Burlington area in general. Clearly, a lot of folks come here mid-work day which is also the only reason I came here to begin with. Overall, not a bad lunch stop, though the parking can be slightly obnoxious. I'm giving Pressed Cafe in Burlington 4 Chipotle Short Rib bowls dubiously seasoned out of 5.

We visited on a very busy night, which is always a good sign. We were lucky to time a seat opening at the bar and we quickly jumped on it. While seated, we could see how busy the bartenders were filling drink orders for both the bar and restaurant patrons. We did not order an appetizer so we jumped right in to drinks and dinner. Our bartender was awesome with follow up and service. Our orders were a hamburger and fries (see pic) and a roasted veggie salad (see pic). We shared some onion rings, as well. My wife got a glass of wine and I had water with a lemon. We did not get a dessert, as the main dish was plenty.

The seafood casserole was decadent with plenty of scallops and shrimp. SERVICE: Nina was excellent. Ensured we had everything we needed, patient with an elderly party member and took photos which came out really nice! BAR: The Bloody Mary had just the right amount of mix and alcohol and was loaded with fresh garnish - 3 jumbo olives, a shrimp and lemon and lime wedges. ATMOSPHERE: It was chilly as we arrived (March), warmed up a bit as more patrons entered. Of course, it does have the aroma of a fish restaurant. Parking is in the back, the entrance is before the restaurant. We missed it the first time around as the parking sandwich board sign was behind the white picket fence. A little inconvenient as we had to then go all the way around the center for a second time. I suspect if the sidewalk was shoveled, the sign would be out there and more visible. There is a parking sign with an arrow on the building, but it is in front of the restaurant walkway entrance, so by the time you see it you likely passed the parking lot entrance.

I'd rather see an armadillo on the menu than chicken fingers. IJS there's no need to change ANYTHING about Mexican food.

Its hard to rate with a new opening and such a busy day. A little warming up I'm sure they'd blow it away. House marg was also awesome.

I suppose "rustic" would be a good term to describe the interior. The menu offers steaks at prices you'd have a difficult time finding elsewhere in the area, plus chicken, lamb, veal, and interesting specials. Our large group was seated over two tables, which worked well for us in terms of quality conversation among interested folks. Service was quick, friendly, and professional, and all our dinners came out at the same time. We ordered a few appetizers. They were good but a little inconsistent. The mozzarella sticks, homemade, were a little unconventional, with a panko-mozzarella crust. Better, in my opinion, were the buffalo chicken tenders. I mis-read the description of my Argentine Bowl, thinking it was more of a salad. It was steak tips, avocado, tomatoes, and black beans over rice, quite tasty. The person sitting next to me ordered a dinner special the lamb shank osso bucco. While the meat was delicious and tender, it could have had even more seasoning on it, and there was an unexpected amount of fat on the shank. Parking is a little awkward given the shape of the shopping center, and the location of the restaurant. It was nice to see signs designating spaces closest to the restaurant reserved for their customers. This restaurant was the go-to restaurant for the family hosting the dinner event.

It felt much more common than any other area I've visited. I was in the area two weeks ago and did not get the opportunity to try roast beef, so, I decided I was going to make it happen this visit. I inquired with several locals for recommendations but with the heavy traffic, I did not feel I had enough time to travel to the recommendations. I found Giovannis on Yelp and it was near where I was working and had over three stars. Although the reviews appeared mixed, I decided I would check it out. Located in a small strip mall in South Tewksbury, I arrived a little after noon on a Monday. There was an inflatable character waving people in the front door. Once inside, I could tell Giovanni's is primarily designed for either take-out or delivery. With only two tables inside, someone was already seated at one and I saw a few people waiting in their cars. I went to the counter and let them know I am not from the area and I continued seeing roast beef places, especially offered with pizza and I wanted to see what it was all about. I asked what the most popular roast beef sandwich was. I was quickly told the Super Beef comes on an onion roll and is their most popular roast beef option. I decided to try it and was asked if I wanted BBQ sauce and cheese on it, which were easy yes's! I had a seat and waited for my order. The rest of the menu is much more extensive than I expected. In addition to roast beef and pizza, they also have calzone, salads, wraps, cold sandwiches, cold subs, pasta, chicken, burgers, some seafood, rice bowls and quesadillas. When my order was called, I went to the counter to pick it up and had a seat. The sandwich was wrapped up and looked huge. I unwrapped it and it looked amazing, a bit on the rarer side than I prefer but the temperature of the sandwich was hot and it did look yummy. I proceeded to eat it and the BBQ sauce was dripping everywhere. This is a really sloppy sandwich and the BBQ sauce is definitely on the thinner side. Overall, the sandwich was tasty and I ate it all, but it did not overwhelm me. I still do not understand the significance of roast beef in the area but will Google it to see if I can find an answer. I would consider this a good experience.
