Restaurants near Turner Fairbank Highway Research Station

This was our first time celebrating Thanksgiving at a restaurant and it was wonderful. J. Gilbert’s is our place for special occasions, so it was our choice for this holiday. The menu was very traditional, which is what we wanted, and there was no skimping on portions. Of course, it didn’t compare to what we make at home, but the trade-off was that we avoided all that work and clean up just for the two of us. Happily, we will have turkey sandwiches for a couple of days - our favorite part of Thanksgiving. Our waiter was very personable and gave us just the right amount of attention. The ambiance was perfect and the noise level was low. It was such a lovely evening!

Our family always enjoys our meals. Nice variety and dishes that I can't make as well at home. Cocktails and beer hit the mark The andouille shrimp and grits, seared scallops over butternut risotto, pot roast. and chicken and waffles were all divine. Not a morsel of food was left on our plates. The appetizers of brie jammy onion bread, green tomatoes and biscuits kicked off our meal. This is a reliable casually elegant dinner spot

Et Viola is one of our favorite neighborhood gems-always a go to for family dinners or simply date night at the bar! The staff is phenomenal with their outstanding hospitality, food is delicious, and the cocktails and wine list are superb!

Throughout the meal, the staff was attentive without being intrusive. When our server picked up that one of party was celebrating a birthday, he provided a special desert for her without our asking. The food was excellent.

Great Food! Exceptional staff! Our server Erica was just outstanding!
