    11. Pork Dumpling
    Rebecca B.

    This was my first time trying this place and I ordered delivery. The dumplings were very good, very flavorful. The shrimp nime chow was disappointing though. It was wrapped well and stayed together, so that was definitely a plus. However, I was not a fan of the excessive amount of lettuce and the large cucumber strip. I would much rather have less of those and more noodles and bean sprouts. The coconut rice was ok. Nothing spectacular. I ordered a side of the hot oil. It was hot but the flavor wasn't there. I would order the dumplings again and would like to try a few other things before making a final decision on this place. It could have potential that I just haven't tasted yet. It's at least worth a second order eventually.

    Small dining room but pleasant

    This place is tiny and clean. We went here because I saw the boba sign in front and wanted to try something new in Wakefield. I ordered Mango Curry with the chicken option and satay chicken. It was delicious and curiously the sour unripe mangos added to the dish. My daughter ordered the Emerald Plate. She also ordered a strawberry boba which tasted like strawberry yoohoo lol! As we were eating a kid on a skateboard came in and asked how much a boba tea was. He didn't have enough and said so and turned to go. The lady at the register told him she would get it for him. He seemed embarrassed but eventually accepted. I include that only because it's a small thing but shows the generosity of this woman who was server and register. It wasn't busy but I found it a graceful thing to do.

    Pad thai, mango curry, basil chicken stir fry, chicken satay, fresh roll, tom kah

    First Meal Review ** Takeaway/Takout First let me say that the staff was VERY friendly both when I ordered over the phone and arrival. The place was super clean and my order was ready for contactless pick-up. That being said this was not my favorite Thai meal locally. We ordered three lunch combos which came with an appetizer, soup/salad, and lunch portion entree...so a great value at $10 each meal! But... the chicken on all three meals was so not good. The chicken satay had great flavor but was tough. The fresh spring roll was indeed fresh but the sauce lacked any flavor or basil so basically lettuce and rice paper. The salad was fresh and great dressing. The tom kah soup was smooth, tangy and flavorful as it should be. The mango curry was flavorful but those veggies were chopped huge and again the chicken was tough. The hot basil stir fry had the same chicken issue and the sauce was very thin and overwhelming. The pad thai was super sweet and the noodles stuck together in big clumps. Maybe it deserves another review at dinner... we will see...

    Pretty cute place located in a non descript shopping strip. Food was pretty standard for a Thai place. Flavors overall were on point and a good reprieve from all the fish and chips and lobster rolls in the area

    Tom Yum soup. Chicken Satay appetizers.

    Terrible customer service. The review that I read describing the owner as the Soup Nazi made me…read morelaugh because it is so accurate. All of my interactions with him have left a bad taste in my mouth. He is so rude, dismissive and acts like he's doing you a favor by letting him make a cake for you. It sounds like they make delicious cakes here, but I never got the chance to try any. We tried on several occasions to set up a cake tasting appointment and a meeting to go over the cake we ordered. Just giving them a deposit ended up being so difficult--they never answered the phone and half the time their emails were returned to sender. I probably had to call five or six times just to connect with him on his cell to take the deposit. He would email me windows of time to make the call and then he wouldn't even answer. Their store is closed 90% of the time it is listed as being open. We also found out that the cake we ordered is actually being canceled and we got no explaination at all. Patticakes never even contacted us themselves and we only found through other means that they canceled all their orders for the summer. If we hadn't heard through the grapevine, we could've ended up a few weeks away from our event and not had our cake! Hopefully getting my deposit back will be easier than it was trying to pay it. And hopefully another bakery in the area will be available so close to my event. I don't know whats going on with this business, but its terribly run. I'd steer clear of it and find somewhere else to get a quality cake from. Doug will be the first to tell you (because he did) that no cake I get will be better than his. But at least those other cakes will be delivered.

She went above & beyond with a few phone calls and for that all of our group is grateful. It was a pleasure walking into this airy and energetic restaurant. We were in for a treat as soon as Tori B. greeted us with a great attitude and extensive knowledge of the menu at Celeste. Tori did an excellent job caring for our family as we celebrated a few special occasions this particular night. They did not rush us and allowed us to visit while also providing us exceptional service. Such a true professional in the world of hospitality. The bread service of delicious focaccia was a treat right off the bat. We thoroughly enjoyed the calamari fritto misto with artichoke hearts, pepperoncini, fried lemons, and caper aioli. The spicy whipped feta is a unique preparation with the olive relish, and we raved over the house-made warm pita. Truly some of the best starters the four of us have enjoyed in a long while. It appears Celeste is well known for their pizzas and after consuming the fig & prosciutto pizza we know why. Unctuous blending of flavors with Great Hill blue cheese and so much more. We left room to continue sharing amazing food - the roasted Moroccan chicken and the grilled halibut. Both mains sported their own unique flavors. The Moroccan chicken has a perfect blending of couscous, raisins & cashews with roasted broccolini. The grilled halibut was so perfectly prepared that I dream of ever being able to grill my own back home to such a perfect consistency. Congratulations to a well-run kitchen that supports a seamless front of the house operation. Having managed restaurants for years, I appreciate the energy and passion that goes into creating such memorable dining experiences for guests.

    What a cute, cozy, delectable place. We are at a conference looking for something different for…read moredinner that we haven't tried (this our 4th year in a row for this conference side note-we love the east coast). We went on a Thursday evening and street parking was easy to find. Service was great! Here is what we had: 1. Drinks: EASY TIGER- coconut rum, overproof rum, horchata, amontillado, sherry, lime, aromatic bitters. BLOOD, SWEAT, & ROSEMARY (mocktail)- blood orange, lemon, rosemary, soda water. My boyfriend had the easy tiger and found it more tropical tasting than horchata but still liked it. I had the mocktail, which was great! Refreshing drink. Just nice they offer mocktails and tasty ones too! 2. Raw bar: gotta have oysters while in the east coast right? They were from Jamestown and of course yummy. They had a mignonette which was good but since the oysters were so good not needed but a yummy addition option 3. Shared plates/appetizers: CHARRED OCTOPUS- Castlevetrano olive & cannellini bean, frisee, shaved red onion, piri piri, EVOO. This was one of my favorite appetizers. We try octopus everywhere and have had lots of overcooked ones. This was not that! It was soft, buttery and easy to cut and not rubbery. The tail was crispy and yummy. The char was perfect and flavor was on point. PAN ROASTED SUNCHOKES- herbed ricotta, hazelnut, chervil, Calabrian compound butter. What a tasty spin on the sunchokes. I love sunchokes and appreciate a great presentation and different ways to have it. 3. Entrees/Mains: BRANDT FARM 14 OZ RIBEYE- crispy potatoes, onion jam, bravas sauce, haricot vert. My least favorite dish of the night but doesn't mean I have love everything. I still appreciate a really good restaurant and concept. I know this is not a streak house so I understand not being the best steak. It was a bit of a tough steak, but the cooking temp (medium rare) was made to perfection and flavor was simple but perfect (I love love a simple steak without all the extras). The sauce was my least favorite of the dish and could definitely do without. The potatoes and veggies were good except it was somewhat less tasty with the sauce. We made our own surf and turf and had their special for the day. HALIBUT- not sure what was all in for the specifics but this was a winner. The fish was charred yet the moisture was preserved and tasty! Loved the flavoring and sauce. All mixed harmoniously. Dessert: BASQUE CHEESECAKE-fresh whipped cream, brown butter salted caramel, strawberry. We had a hard time deciding between the pistachio tiramisu and the cheesecake. I'm sure both are tasty. I like my cheesecakes more simple and asked for this without whipped cream and strawberry. The consistency of the cheesecake was great! Taste was point on. Although I don't care for caramel with it I tried the caramel and mmmmmm. Cheesecake was a great way to end. Overall fantastic experience. Our waitress was lovely. Staff was wonderful. Food was delicious. The ambiance was cozy and cute. If you are in the area recommend coming here for a nice dinner.
