A simple side salad with an amazing house made dressing becomes a treat. The shrimp tacos are seasoned like no other and burst with flavor. The bibimbop--of which I'm no expert--is pleasing & surprisingly filling--just right for pre-theater dinner (Barrington Stage a block away). The mixed drinks (per my companions) are both original & delicious. The last night we were there the owner/bartender/chef was by herself yet service was friendly, personal and efficient. What else can you ask for?

The atmosphere at dulu is nice if you are a guest or stopping by for a drink. For dinner guests it was underwhelming. Service was nice but didn't seem to match the quality of the prices.

He served up multiple mocktails and cocktails with aplomb and even pulled off a ginger and lychee combination that shouldn't have worked but was delish. Almost everything else missed the mark. Staff should know to de-vein shrimp before sending out skewers. They should also know what "black and blue" means if they're serving steak. Another table ordered it and five staff members huddled around a phone at the bar to look it up like they were searching for Pokémon. The orecchiette had perfect texture, but truffle oil made half the plate inedible. The Persian crispy rice, the dish I was most looking forward to, was a complete let down. The rice was well cooked, but the eggplant filling was nearly flavorless and the meager amount of smoked tomato couldn't save it. The roasted mushroom board was good though we improved it ourselves by spreading leftover s'chug from the shrimp skewers onto the bread and layering the mushrooms on top. It also had truffle for some reason. Why? Dulu has the right ingredients to be top tier. This just wasn't their night. The bartender rescued the evening. Give that man a raise.

I ordered fish tacos for $24 which came out cold and literally had two pieces of fish with nothing else. I should've known better than to order tacos in Western mass! I sent that back and got a grain bowl and said which was as bland as bland could be. The charming decor and music of this place might be great if you're going for a show or drink, but the food is pretty awful. Which things have been worse is that I went very much out of my way to go here and was extremely disappointed.

I placed my order of Fish & Chips (replaced with salad) online and after about 20 minutes walked over for the pickup. Upon entry, the placed was packed with a Saturday crowd. Upon entry there a bar full of people watching a game. Since it's a brewery, it has a rustic look with wooden decor. The hostess greeted me and asked if I needed a table. I let her know that I placed an order and she quickly went back to check if my order was ready. As she stepped away, another hostess stepped in to assist. After a few minutes, she came back with my order. After coming back to my room, I had the fish and salad. It was large portions nicely prepared, hot and tasted very nice. Highly recommended!

It's everything a true hometown dive should be. Friendly locals who don't make you feel like an outsider, a bartender who actually talks to you like a human, and that easy, lived-in atmosphere that can't be manufactured. The food is exactly what you want here. Comforting, no-frills pub fare that hits the spot without trying too hard. Simple, satisfying, and perfectly in tune with the vibe. This is the kind of place I could see becoming a second home, the kind where you walk in and everyone knows your name, your drink, and maybe a little bit of your story too.

This is a very unique & special setting, a reservation is a must and they will call to cancel for inclement weather as there is no indoor alternative here. Here, it is as if you are in someone's private yard, with acoustic music, and the host grilling patio side under a fading sky. Full bar, cocktails reasonably priced & well made. Staff is lovely( it was obvious though that there are many management hands in this venture). We were fortunate to catch David Reed here, who was amazing. There are 2 seatings , we arrived in time to grab a lakeside table, a small clearing that allows a nice lake & sunset view. Small but delicious & well executed menu. You are not necessarily heading here for the food per se, but the entire ambiance. They prepare all food on the patio, therefore the menu must be accommodating to the space. There are enough choices & everything was delicious. Plenty of choices !! Make a reservation, keep an eye on the weather and enjoy this little treasure.
