The service was excellent, waitstaff would check periodically to make sure everything was okay! We order pretty much all appetizers and that was enough to fill our palate and did not even have to order entrees. The apps were like regular meals! The food was delicious and filling! We had Hummus, Tzatziki ,Calarmari, lamb beyti & chicken kebabs , steamed mussels and chopped salad with shrimp! The home made Pita was nice and warm and cut so you can dip it into the hummus and Tzatziki. We also used the pita to dip into the Mussels sauce too! Everything was cooked to perfection! Prices were very reasonable $$ We would definite come again! You should also try theie other restaurant in Waltham & Needham, they are also very good!

I find it quite odd that Punch's is on Yelp. But I'm not concerned because there is no way anyone…read morecould locate it without asking the police or some random girl on campus wherein you would immediately be labeled a creepster and probably flagged for removal. So please, unless you're invited, don't go bumbling around campus searching for the 'sexy and sleek' Wellesley pub, there's no neon sign and no singles night. In case you don't know if I'm talking to you I made this handy list. If don't fit into one of these categories, you probably shouldn't be at Punch's Alley on any given night. A) A Wellesley student. B) A Wellesley alum less than 35yr old, single, and a les. C) A college student from MIT/Harvard/BU/Brandeis/BC/Berklee etc who came to campus for a reason other than the pub and then found himself/herself there by happenstance. D) A boyfriend/girlfriend/friend of a Wellesley student, with an invite to meet them at the pub. E) A musician with a gig at Punch's Alley. F) A guest lecturer or attendee at a lecture/movie/panel discussion that took place on campus and you're there only before 9pm. G) A campus employee who just wants a quick drink before heading home. That should pretty much sum it up. I'm not an anti-man or anti-visitors, but for serious - Punch's is not the spot to be unless you're wearing sweats and fresh off a 12 hour caffeine filled library sesh. I'm only a couple years out and there is no way I'd go there. I wish I didn't have to assign stars to it - it's more like 5 stars if you fit into the list above and 0 if you don't.

My feedback for the restaurant- the perfume in ladies room air freshener made me feel really sick and almost ruined my appetite. The name of the restaurant doesn't catch anyone's attention? Maybe that's why? Otherwise great spot! Excellent food.
