I migliori ristoranti di cucina globale a Sherborn

Our first time. Pleasantly surprised. Promptly shown to a table on a Friday night. Waiter was personable and attentive. Great service and food came quickly. Fatoush Salad was fresh, creative and delicious. Storebought pita on the side was a bit pedestrian, though. Aloo Tikka appetizer was fabulous. Loved the herby sauce and fresh peas in the potato pancakes. Mac and Cheese with pancetta was nice. Needed more pancetta and the cheese sauce needed more character. But the pasta was perfectly cooked. The toasty breadcrumbs were a great touch.

Outstanding food, drinks and service. Food was some of the best we have had in a long time. Particular standouts were the mushrooms, the broccolini, the trout and the fried chicken. Service was prompt, friendly and servers were well educated on menu items. Also, the restaurant is part of a hotel and everyone in the hotel greeted us, gave directions, etc.

Biplaw and the team made us feel so welcomed. The views and interiors are gorgeous. The vibes were laid back with good music. The graphic cocktail menu was sooo helpful. The attention to details is impeccable. We enjoyed our cocktails and conversation. Well done!

Service and ambience was amazingggg! The octopus salad was good but the octopus was a little tough. Other than that, great experience.

So this seems like a really good concept that perhaps hasn’t quite decided what it wants to be bIs this a laid back lounge or a loud club? The positives: great music, the food is limited but very good, ambience is swanky and interesting inside, the speakeasy concept…asking for a password, secret entrance, all that’s fun. The drinks are also very good by the way. What wasn’t quite as good was the volume at which music was played tonight. There was a band with the lead singer from Colombia, who had a very nice voice and a lot of energy, but you couldn’t actually hear her vs the sound system. I have a Decibel Meter on my iPhone and I measured that they were consistently playing for about the first hour we were there at 92 to 95 dB which is incredibly loud and hard on your ears. That is earplug level to the point where you it’s hard to talk to the person next to you and virtually impossible to the person across from you. It does not help that The floor is stone and there’s a lot of bright reflected surfaces so it just became a bit harsh at those volume levels. Maybe add some carpets and some sound absorptive wall treatments if it’s a music venue? The band tonight was great by the way and they took a request or two and were super fun and interactive with the tables. After their second set, I mentioned it to her and they toned it down volumes in the high 70s to low 80 decibels and suddenly you could hear yourself talking in there. If it was a lounge and kind of chill and laid-back, could hear glasses clinking, then would be more with the speakeasy theme we felt. Overall, it’s nice to have a music venue at Alewife with good food. We’d come back for sure to have good music played a bit less loudly than it was tonight in this small and intimate venue. One important note: prior reviews have mentioned a $20 cover charge per person. This was not charged to us tonight. The final bill came to $87.50 a person which was not unreasonable for what we eat and drank.
