Best Casual Restaurants in Norwood

The food and service, as usual, was excellent. We continue to have problem, however, with issue of being seated with friends who arrive separately for the same reservation. Once again, our friends, who had arrived earlier, were seated at a table. When we arrived for the same reservation ,(under our name) we were seated at a separate table. After waiting, we called our friends to find out when they would be arriving. They advised us they were waiting for us for 20 minutes and were seated at a separate table on the other side of the restaurant! This keeps happening when we visit Joes in Westwood. The receptionists should have some way of knowing when two people for a four person reservation are seated that when the other couple arrives they are seated together. This is the second time this has happened. We waited twenty minutes before we realized that we were all at the restaurant! It was very embarrassing. We love Joes but it would be appreciated, in the future, if we are all seated together when couples meet at the restaurant, however, arrive at different times. Thank you Steve Goodman 617-290-3680

Excellent! Wine was spectacular, nice recommendations from our server. Food was really delicious!! best calamari we have had! Xavier was fantastic, very attentive and professional but also personable. We had a very nice late lunch/early dinner Friday! Thank you!

Neroli's is wonderful! This was our second time there. We had the chicken under a brick and the carbonara. Both were delicious. We had three flavors of gelato for dessert. So creamy and delish. Our waitress was amazing! We had lots of laughs with her and she was so nice. We'll be back next week! New favorite place!

My wife and I prefer pubs and usually shy away from "chain" type of restaurants. But our daughters are both big Tavern In the Square fans and they've gradually also convinced us as well. This particular location is our favorite despite there being one or two that are closer. This one is a solid 35-45 minute drive for us but it is well worth it. Visited a couple of times (plus once just for drinks at the bar). The staff are all so nice and the service we receive (we always request same server) is literally second to none. Food is very good and the portions are quite large - certainly enough to have a second meal at home. They really have an excellent bar selection too. I usually order bourbon and they have a lot of choices. We will continue to keep this place in our rotation.
