    Best food I've ever had in my life. That is not an exaggeration. The owners of the restaurant is also very nice!

    had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant. From the moment I walked in, the ambience…read morestood out -- warm, inviting, and perfectly balanced between cozy and upscale. It's the kind of place where you immediately feel relaxed but still excited for the meal ahead. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without being overbearing. As for the food, I ordered the quarter pound lobster roll, and it was absolutely outstanding. The lobster was fresh, tender, and generously portioned, with flavors that were rich yet beautifully balanced. Every bite was satisfying. Overall, this restaurant delivers on all fronts: atmosphere, service, and quality. I'd happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal!

    So disappointing :( first time coming back in 7 years since moving out of state. Used to come here…read moreall the time in college. Here is the breakdown. The lobster bisque was RICH and thick. Honestly very heavy and was glad I split the one size they had with a friend. It would have been too much. There was a little layer of oil on top too. The Faux Fiz mocktail I got was good. However, a lot of "spices". I ended up requesting more ginger beer and lime to cut it. That helped. But overall good quality drink. The Atlantic salmon crudo was very interesting. Nothing close to what I expected. It was gross. Really thick salmon over globs of a black garlic aioli. The ratio was so off. It was so pasty. I am shocked they haven't reviewed that item on their menu. Usually crudos are so nice and light. This was not. The wild Spanish octopus was the better of the three dishes. Just needed some more salt. Or more of the chorizo would have sufficed. I was surprised that this place was nothing like it used to be. Will not be back :(

    Use the website to pre order and do so early. When they get slammed, they shut down the online…read moreservices and you'd have to call. And then the phone is very busy as well. When are they busy you ask? Any Friday during Lent is bonkers. One lady complained she was waiting over an hour after she ordered. Another customer explained it's Lent that's why it's busy. She was perplexed at how that should impact her as she does not observe Lent. Witness ordered at 3pm and asked for it to be ready at 5:30. Being late and arriving at 5:42 some thermal loss was to be anticipated. The food was in fact ready and very hot. Impressive. Witness was in and out in under 5 minutes. Flying solo, only one item was ordered, fried shrimp plate. There were plenty of fries and shrimp. So much so that the to go box had to be taped shut. Both the fries and the shrimp had a similar taste that was imparted by the oil. Not a bad taste, just unexpected and distracting. The shrimp had another flavor in the batter that was unexpected, familiar, and unwelcome. As it turns out, the shrimp appear to have been coated in mustard aioli before being breaded. While this kept the shrimp super moist, the mustard flavor is very unexpected and Witness could not get past the wild juxtaposition. The provided cocktail sauce was over run with hot sauce. The star is meant to be the horse radish but this one is about Tabasco. The spicy factor switched all the way to the smack you in the face flavor and added a watery consistency and creating a thin condiment. Last having been here 6-7 years ago, this repeat business has been a long time coming. Unfortunately, Witness will need to move on to another shop this Lent.

My friends and I stopped in while visiting Worcester and picked up a 12-piece egg roll--so good we ended up eating them on the spot. They tasted just like the ones my mom makes at home growing up. The owner also gave us complimentary chicken fingers and crab rangoons, which were delicious. He was so nice and genuine, I decided to place another 12 pc order to bring some home for my family. Such friendly people and great food--highly recommended! The 1 star knock off was purely because it was hard to find parking. He had so many folks stopping in to pick up!

    Taino Restaurant: RIP My Skinny Jeans ​…read more​I came for the Pernil, but I stayed because I physically couldn't get back out of the booth. ​The Mofongo: A garlic-infused masterpiece. My breath is now a biohazard, and I regret nothing. ​The Portions: They don't serve "meals"; they serve "challenges." One order of rice and beans could easily be used as a weighted blanket. ​Verdict: Go here if you want to be happy, full, and incapable of movement for 4-6 hours.

    I don't rightly know how to review a restaurant I didn't intend to eat at…read more It's not entirely my fault -- the signs outside say "Havana Nights". In five different places. The parking is for Havana Nights. Imagine our surprise when we were handed menus for "The Fokin Ninja" or Taino. That name isn't anywhere. I still don't know what this place is called. I asked our server if the awesome Cuban place moved, and got the weirdest response.. something like "Ahh.. Ohh.. yeah, let me get someone to help you." I probably should have packed up and studied the situation from somewhere else? There were changes in April and it's not Cuban any more. But we were seated with waters and Fokin Ninja menus, so maybe there's some crossover. I don't even know how to describe the menu; you can read it here. Some kind of Mexican-Asian fusion? Prices are steep, from the $18 cocktails to the $30-$40+ entrees. They did have a few specialty rolls for $10, so I tried a few. Look, maybe beef and chicken fusion rolls are your thing, but today I learned that they are not mine. Not at all. Dry beef, dry shredded chicken on top, and the weirdest mash of flavors and textures does not make a delightful roll. Sticky sweet brown sauce with bacon and cream cheese and some sliver of maybe roast beef? Nope nope nope. There just wasn't anything delicious about them.. just weird stuff wrapped in rice and called a fusion roll. The fried fish plate (Pescado Frito) for $32 was pretty good. Hot, fresh, good size, but just bland and unseasoned, as far as I could tell. Came with chimichuri sauce and fried plantains. Fried rice for $22. Loud and cold in there. This is also the first place in Worchester that puts the Tip right on the tab. Not a service charge, just "Tip" and they picked it for you. There is a line where you can write in an additional tip. It ain't right. I can't think of anything that would merit a second star. The kicker? The receipt says "Havana Nights"! I would have enjoyed eating there instead.
