    Campfire old fashioned

    Stroll down to Union Straw! I've updated my review from a 4-star to a 3-star since our last dining experience was not that great. I will preface that the restaurant was extremely crowded and maybe short staffed. Our dishes took forever since a lot of the other guests (us included) were attending a comedy show close by. Our sever did apologize and mentioned the kitchen was backed up. And, the General Manager also apologized after the fact which I appreciated as well. Food: I ordered their Harvest Salad with Steak on it and it was awful. Steak had no flavor and also came with very little dressing. My husband ordered their Buffalo boneless chicken and said they were lacking sauce. Service: Lacked due to the overcrowded of the restaurant. We sat awhile before being greeted and our drinks took forever. Ambiance: the restaurant has a warmth and nice decor making you feel very comfortable here. Bar seats are very comfy. Overall: 3.5/5 we have been here before and always had a nice time. I think since it was very busy they could not handle the timing of the food and deliver excellent service. I will be giving them another shot for sure. Cheers ~

    We were visiting from out of town for a wedding, this restaurant came highly recommended! Excellent selection of food on the menu with different tastes, there is something for everyone. I would recommend getting a reservation for seating. They had a great selections of draft beer/cider and cocktails.

    Stopping in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Located right in Foxborough center, so it is easy to get to. The inside is cool, hip & has a great modern vibe. The menu isn't giant and well thought out. I hate going to a place that offers so many options that they cant execute them all to perfection. Union Straw owns their dishes, everything came out perfect. Attention to detail is the name of their game. We got crispy gnocchi which everyone at the table loved. I tried one but I don't like gnocchi so my opinion is worthless on this one. I got the kama Jamaican chix Sammie, it was great, the roll, slaw, chicken breading all perfection and so juicy! We ended the meal with a delicious skillet cookie with ice cream. The prices are very fair! I'll be back. Service was great and attentive. Love their homage to the Straw Hat Capitol of the US, Foxborough

    Dry Rub Wings
    Tracy B.

    I want to be mad at this place... Let me explain, I had found them on Yelp months ago (from reading things about the brunch) and today (Saturday) me and Hubby were trying to find somewhere to go and I thought - Ooh lets go here, I called them at 1130 and asked what time they serve brunch until and the girl said 2pm... GREAT, we were a little bit away and we would def make it in time. We get there & this place is CUTE... Super clean and from the outside never would have guessed it was that cute. Get in, are seated right away and was given a lunch menu - we asked for the Breakfast/Brunch menu and was told they only serve on Sunday and right away I was like AARRGGHHHH - the waitress - who was super cool btw noticed I was perplexed... I mentioned how I called and was told until 2, and she even was like - Why wouldnt she say - Ooh Only tomorrow... and I was super in the mood for breakfast. So we went through the menu and grabbed wings, fries, a flatbread & the Hubby got a burger. OMG OMG OMG - redeemed... The wings were GOOD, and I dont even love wings like that - our server suggested the dry rub and Im so glad she did, it was great, the Truffle fries were good, The crab rangoon flatbread - SPOT ON, tasted just like a Crab Rangoon - So good.. His burger was ok he said, but the chips - Yeah those were phenomenal as well! I cannot wait to go back and we are close to the one in Taunton as well so might have to stop in there to check them out & Hope the food is just as good. Will definitely be back SOON... And mad that I was initally mad but was really craving breakfast this am (Im weird, Im one of those, need to eat eggs before I can eat anything else for the day even if its 4pm) I know Im different, LOL

    Swordfish special

    Had a reservation for a group of 6 on a Saturday night. We ordered drinks, apps, dinner and dessert. Our waitress Molly was fantastic. Food was delicious, especially the swordfish special and the Berry donut dessert, over the top!

    Cute place. Went for lunch. Had the Union Straw Chicken Stew. Figured if the dish carried the restaurant name had to be good right? It was half a chicken which wasn't too big on top of a stew which was a little thin side. With an Amazing biscuit. Service was fine.

    Went for Sunday brunch and though it was busy we waited less than 10 minutes. Food and staff were amazing! I had the breakfast burger with the tots and it hit the spot! Recommend the house chips too.

    Truffle Burger and Parmesan Fries
    Hunter C.

    I was in Foxborough and I was told that Union Straw is the best restaurant in the city. With that said, I decided to see if it was true. To begin, I ordered the chicken wings, but they were somehow out of them at 4PM. So I ordered the tenders instead. After a while, I received the tenders which were mediocre. To explain, they were crispy, but a bit overcooked and dry. They could have been better. Thereafter, I ordered the truffle burger with Parmesan fries. After waiting almost an hour, I finally received the food. Knowing that, it was actually very good. To breakdown, the burger was tender and the beef was flavorful. In addition, the bun was fresh and nicely toasted. Also, the truffle aioli was delicious, but they barely put any on the burger. In the same vein, the Parmesan fries were delectable. To prove, the fries were hot, crispy, and were fluffy on the inside. Additionally, the Parmesan added a nice flavor. These were great fries. Bluntly stated, Union Straw has pretty good food, but the wait times are ridiculous.

    Here's a good restaurant to eat at not only for dinner, but also a late night fair. Looking for a good place to grab a quick bite to eat? Union straw can fit that crave. They've got a menu ranging from appetizers to sandwiches to full entrées.Because this was later in the evening something off the sandwich selection was the way to go. They have a chicken sandwich called. Kama Jama. It''s prepared two ways: fried or grilled. I went with grilled. It comes on an herb focaccia bun with cheddar spicy slaw and chipotle sauce. Great combination. Though the bun is on the thicker side, it is good tasting. This is a very good chicken sandwich. With the sandwich you have a choice of french fries or a house salad. I went with the house salad. Decent size salad. Every vegetable was fresh which includes lettuce, tomato, and cucumbers. The house salad is a delicious Italian. Friendly staff and a wide open seating arrangement.

    We were a bit disappointed by dinner service at Estella. The decor sets a fancy, indulgent vibe,…read morewhich is rather undercut by the QR code-only menus. Our waiter seemed to be trying his best, but was clearly a bit underwhelmed. They brought out the wrong dish for one of our party, then brought out a very overcooked version of the right order. While the staff was totally apologetic, comped the meal and through in a free dessert, it was underwhelming. Mixed feelings on the food overall. They ran out of the drink I ordered, had run out of tiny second choice, and the waiter didn't think to suggest an alternative. And unfortunately the service was very slow. Three stars is generous, I think.

Unfortunately, we hadn't made a reservation in advance, so I can't blame the restaurant for the fact that we ended up seated at the bar which had considerably less ambiance and perhaps staff who weren't as familiar with the menu. If you're someone with food allergies or special food needs, you'll need to use extra caution here. I ordered the vegan pasta and specified several times that I was ordering the vegan pasta main dish because it was vegan and I have a dairy allergy. The woman behind the bar asked if I wanted the mushroom pasta, and I specified again that it had to be the vegan pasta at least twice. She put in the order for the mushroom pasta starter, which contains dairy, instead of the vegan pasta entree. Because of her uncertainty, I double-checked with another bartender, who confirmed that it was in fact a dairy dish. That bartender was able to place the correct order for me. I would consider coming back here on a date night for the ambiance, but I would be very careful about checking and double checking for food allergies.
