Best Casual Restaurants in Northborough

UNBELIEVABLE value! The price point for the exquisite food/presentation and the down-to-earth-welcome-home staff is simply off the charts! I never thought possible that this level of fine dining in our neck of the woods was possible. Sure, our Hudson Speak Easy has some sophistication attached to it, with a small and well curated menu. But fine dining that rivals a Boston restaurant, without the Boston prices and cost of parking? WHAT?! No, I didn't think it possible. Yet Wemmy's pulls it off with magnificent charm. From walking in through the door, until you leave. Classy but not stuffy, comfortable, clean. BEAUTIFUL bar! MUST haves? Seafood Parpadelle, chimichurri steak (ANY OF THE STEAKS), banana/chocolate croissant bread pudding. Espresso Martini flight... yea. It's a place where you want to come back and go through the entire menu!

The service and food were both great! My husband and I had a date night and the atmosphere was fun and energetic, especially by the bar, but low key enough to be relaxing and romantic.

We dined in the bar area at a booth, having an early meal at 5pm. The service, food, and seating were all fantastic. However, by the end of our meal, the noise level was so loud, we couldn’t hear each other speak. We intentionally dined early in the evening to avoid this issue, but to no avail. If you want a quieter space, I’d certainly recommend the dining room.

OpenTable thinks we didn’t show up. But, Anika took great care of us. And she earned a generous tip for her hard work and positive attitude. I’d go back again, but not if OpenTable again sends me a disgusting e-mail that accuses us of being a no-show.

Food wasn’t as good as I remembered. The fettuccine Alfredo had little taste. The pizza lacked sauce. Their brownie dessert was hard as a rock (in spite of us asking if it was warm or freshly baked). The mini dessert menu did not match the main menu and the photos of dessert didn’t match the description so it was visually confusing. The chicken piccata and Stromboli was good.
