    We recently dined at City Works in Watertown, and overall, it was a good experience. The food was delicious, and the menu had a great variety of options. However, our meal was delayed due to an unexpected plumbing issue at the bar. While it was a bit distracting for both us and the staff, they handled the situation as best they could under the circumstances. Despite the hiccup, the staff remained friendly and attentive, ensuring we were taken care of once the issue was resolved. We’d definitely return to enjoy the food and atmosphere when things are running smoothly.

    I got the fish taco ... yum yum yum but this time the fish was so small. One tiny piece per taco. For $19, unacceptable. But, but.... the manager recognized the error and took half of the price! For half the fish, they was appreciated. Id still get it again. Yum

    Wonderful neighborhood spot. Meatloaf meal was a surprisingly good choice. My partner’s meal could have been warmer in temperature. The volume of noise in the restaurant allowed for easy conversation. I will be returning.

    Got the buffalo chicken dip which was decent. Steak salad had overcooked fatty tough steak and a small portion of it.

    As usual, the burger is worth coming back for. Not a flat frozen patty. A juicy delicious cooked to your liking with hot spicy (or not if youd prefer plain) french fries! Yum

    We had a great dinner at City Works during a recent visit to Boston. We were staying at the Residence Inn and were able to walk from the hotel. The area is quite nice with lots of shops and other restaurants. It was festively decorated with holiday lights. We sat at a high top and enjoyed the many screens to watch games. Mario was our server. He was attentive and helpful. I had Spicy Shrimp Skewers - a Chef’s Favorite item - and my husband had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich with fries. Both were excellent. We really enjoyed the warm Chocolate Cookie served in a cast iron skillet with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream for dessert. Highly recommend City Works!

    It is some of the best food I’ve ever had! Smoked wings, ribs and an amazing salad. Along with a huge beer selection. As well as great service!

    Great place to watch a game. Good TV’s and fun atmosphere. The wings were very good. Excellent beer selection. Our service was great. The young man was from Thailand and I don’t want to mess up his name. He was very busy but did an amazing job. He acknowledged us when we first sat down which I highly recommend to every server. Five minutes later he took our drink order and was attentive all night. Very personable and nice. I visited the City Works in Pittsburgh and will be going back to the Watertown location for sure. They did an amazing job with that entire area.
