Yangtze Restaurant
Jul 25, 2009 by John from Portsmouth

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Awesome food, clean, great service.
• None.

“My family and I make it a habit to eat at the Yangtze at least twice a week. I have eaten at almost all the Chinese restaurants in the area and hands down, the Yangtze is the BEST. The food is ALWAYS fresh and not too greasy. The restaurant is clean and the service is professional and quick. If you're looking for the best Chinese food, you can't miss out on the Yangtze!”

Bessie's Lunch
Jul 23, 2009 by Elizabeth from Hampstead, nh

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[8] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[6]

• Atmosphere.
• Parking - there is a good size lot but can be jammed.

“I find Bessie's homey and fun. Doesn't look like anything from the outside, but inside it's family friendly, extremely busy, tables close together so you end up making friends with the people next door; just a fun, casual place for lunch (never did breakfast, but see the trucks packed in). Simple food, well done, pleasant waitresses - not fine dining, not the place for a first date, but great small town place.”

Sweet Tomatoes Trattoria Lp

Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Waitresses.
• A little noisy.

“My husband and I have been to sweet tomatoes a number of times. Food is excellent and the service is just as excellent. We have gone mostly for dinner and a couple of lunches. The service is much better in the evening very friendly service from the evening staff. After a few times they greet you by name and even know what you like for a before dinner drink always left very happy and very full.”

• Keep up the great value and quality food.
• None.

“We have a grandchild at Easter Seals and when we left we were looking for a place to eat. We seen a lot of cars there so we stopped and had a fantastic meal, and then when we were leaving we got desert, wife had a large super size sundae, and I had a great Frappe. Great value. We will be there each weekend when we go to visit and also our son, daughter in law and my other grandchild will come to eat. Again a great place to eat. Thank you.”

Riverside Grill Inc
May 14, 2009 by Brian from Vermont

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[1] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[5]

• Good service.
• Price and portions.

“If you're after a good meal of seafood, go to the Weathervane. Portions are small, prices are high for what you get. I haven't been to Riverside in over 20 years. It will be at least another 20 before I go back after the disappointing meal last week. The service was very good,as well as atmosphere. Portions and price a big thumbs down!”

Yankee Chef Inc

Overall Rating: 5
Food:[6] • Service:[6] • Atmosphere:[5]

• Basic fare and convenient to shopping.
• Service.

“I was not present for the coupon debacle, though I will say that if the owner said it was not on the coupon what would it have cost them fifty cents? Food is not the only priority, customer service is of utmost importance. There is nothing special about this small establishment, they should have done better. I too find it not worth my time or $.”

Avandis Restaurant
Apr 3, 2009 by Laura from Derry

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[9] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Affordable prices, great food! Welcoming atmosphere and wait staff.
• When its busy the waits can be long, but its worth the wait!

“I believe they renovated a couple of years ago, and they've made numerous changes to their menu and wait staff. It's even better each time I go. It either 2 of us or 11-14 people, and no one has had a bad meal. Its family owned, and very welcoming. I love it.”

Hooligans Inc
Mar 30, 2009 by anna from north conway

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[5] • Service:[3] • Atmosphere:[1]

• I liked the way the owner yells at his wait staff.
• The cooks take smoke breaks in the driveway, do they wash their hands after, probably not.

“Its a dive, save yourself the trouble.”

Cafe Teresa
Mar 29, 2009 by Rachael from Londonderry, NH

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[1] • Service:[2] • Atmosphere:[2]

• Good drinks.
• Inedible food.

“Horrible, don't waste your money! We were hesitant because there were so many options on the menu and we should have stayed away! It felt like a punishment to try to eat that food and then to have to pay for it. The Mexican was disgusting and the sandwich was barely edible!”

Derry Pizza & Restaurant Inc

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[9] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[9]

• Definitely a family restaurant.
• Not updated decor, but the food's great!

Nonies Food Shop
Feb 20, 2009 by Aimee from NH

Overall Rating: 6
Food:[6] • Service:[3] • Atmosphere:[1]

• The outside of the building looked nice.
• I got food poisoning.

“The food is overpriced. My order came to me wrong. The portions were small. The waitress was rude. I later got severe diarrhea.”

Cheerful Garden
Feb 17, 2009 by Andrew

Overall Rating: 6
Food:[5] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[7]

• Vegetarian lo mien.
• Beef Teriaki.

“Cheerful Garden is great, if you are a vegetarian, I say this because everything was delicious accept for the meat. The noodles of the lo mien were wonderful, but they were surrounded by poor quality chicken, dark meat with little flavor and the occasional tendon to crunch. The beef Teriayaki was nicely flavored but was tough and stringy. The fried dumplings were good with a flavorful ginger sauce. The Pork fried rice was filled with tasty veggies and small amounts of pork, over all rather good. The general Tao's chicken was, like the lo mien, dark meat with small amounts of fat along the edges.”

Cafe Noche
Jan 13, 2009 by sharon from haverhill

Overall Rating: 4
Food:[3] • Service:[2] • Atmosphere:[4]

• The decor was pleasing and there was a parking lot in the back.

“We tried Cafe Noche for lunch during a trip to North Conway last winter during President's weekend. The cafe was almost empty - no problem. We kind of expected good service and hot foot from the staff seeing it was not busteling. Boy, were we wrong. The waitress had a raging head cold. It showed, because she took forever to check back to the table for our order, refill our drinks, bring silver ware (while we sat with our meals in front of us), etc. Our guess is that the entire kitchen had a raging cold also, because the food was cold and the servings were just thrown together on the plates. I won't be back and I tell everyone I know to stay away. The only good thing I have heard is that this place has a good tequila sampler. Sorry, not enough to keep me as a return customer.”

Caesarios Pizza & Restaurant
Dec 31, 2008 by mo from manchester

Overall Rating: 5
Food:[8] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[7]

• The food was good.
• Left out specific items requested and lied to me about fixing problem.

“I ordered food on new years eve and after it showed up I realized they had not put pizza sauce in the calzones. I had a specific direction to make sure there was sauce in the calzones and that it was pizza sauce, I called back to have them correct it [which any pizza place would apologize for and bring you a new calzone] and they told me they were busy trying to close and they could get me a couple bucks off next time I order or something. I reminded them about my specific request, and was transfered to a manager or something and he told me he would send it right over and then hung up on me. 1 hour later, I am still waiting, and they are not answering the phone. Completely unprofessional and I will never give them my business again.”

Food:[9] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Food, service, the owner is really cool.
• Parking.

“I loved this place. The owner was really cool. Told us a lot about the history of Manchester and the politics of the city. The owner was really nice. The food was great, the prices were very reasonable and the place has been updated with a granite bar and beautiful floors. The cal zones are very big and crispy, fries were just awesome. I will go back many times.”

Country Tavern The
Nov 22, 2008 by Chris from Nashua

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Friendly people, worth while food, not a chain cookie cutter place
• Was a bit chilly inside.

“My fiancee and I were on our way to Bertucci's, however saw this place on our way and decided to check it out. The food was very well prepared and very tasty, and there was a lot of it! While the price was a few dollars more then say Bertucci's or Unos, the servings are large and worth it. Everything was fresh and had a home made feeling and taste to it. The service was great, the waiter we had was very friendly and knowledgeable. The setting is very nice, in an old colonial home, with a fun story to it. If you would like to have dinner at a place with a more personal touch, this is the place to go. I can't wait to go back again soon and try other items on the menu!”

Cajans City Side Grille

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[10] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[7]

• Food is awesome.
• Supply and demand - allow about 30 minutes to wait until seated.

“This is our favorite breakfast in all of Concord. Very busy, so be prepared to wait for a seat. The fewer people the quicker you are seated. The food is well worth the wait. Two people get a huge breakfast for about $20.00.”

• Mexican food- so fresh and good!
• Italian food, the wait.

“Unbelievable Mexican food- so tasty, authentic, big portions and very inexpensive. Tried the Italian the next time and not as impressed but everyone else at the table liked theirs. Long wait but worth it! Good stuff!”

Harts Turkey Farm Restaurant
Oct 27, 2008 by Friendly

Overall Rating: 2
Food:[2] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Service was EXCELLENT.
• Food was very bland.

“The people working at this restaurant were the nicest and most efficient I've ever met while dining out. They were all very concerned with your visit to be enjoyable. Our server was hands down the best server we have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Unfortunately the food was terribly bland. I had a turkey sandwich and it had no flavor at all. As well as turkey soup which was the same. My friend had the pot pie and complained of no seasonings and it being very bland. I feel awful even saying anything negative because everyone was so very nice and the atmosphere was equally as inviting. I say check it out for yourself and you decide!”

Newick'S Management Inc
Sep 24, 2008 by James

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[6] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[1]

• Nice view.
• Way overpriced, no atmosphere, paper plates and plastic ware!

“Fine dining prices with a cafeteria atmosphere, complete with paper plates and plastic ware. The food was good (not great), the service was fine (no complaints there) but the place has no atmosphere and the prices were about double what I would have expected when eating on paper with plastic!”

• Regular tables don't have the same menu as the Grill.

“I love this place. I go there at least once a week! The hibachi grill is the best, but make a reservation for the weekend. I bring my 6 year old and he loves it!”

Joe Kellys Restaurant

Overall Rating: 2

• Convenient to Work.
• Atmosphere & Food.

“I found this fast food establishment to be neither fast nor qualified as food. The owner/manager was constantly berating his staff and filled the air with foul language. Eating food at this restaurant was an awful experience. Avoid it!”

Big Bean Cafe Inc
Aug 31, 2008 by Terez from Newmarket, NH

Overall Rating: 10

• Really delicious food, reasonably prices.
• None.

“The Big Bean is amazing! My favorite thing on the menu: Cali sandwich on thick delicious bread with turkey, sprouts, avocado, etc, and it comes with an excellent spinach salad with strawberries and an absolutely divine dressing. Everything I have ever tasted from here has been excellent. Is it lunchtime yet?”

Le Petit Bistro

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[2] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[4]

• Fast service.
• My salad was nothing.

“All of the above are not really Germaine to my comments. But I feel that I had to comment to somebody about my experience. I ordered a Caesar Salad and got about an ounce of lettuce, maybe 3 miniature croutons and a bit of shredded cheese. All for $5. It was pretty sad for a brand name restaurant. I could have gone to MacDonald's and got a much bigger and more enjoyable salad. Somebody should tell them to use larger croutons and less stingy with the cheese and dressing.”

Green Tea Chinese Restaurant, Inc
Aug 20, 2008 by Diane from Londonderry

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Atmosphere:[5]

• Service is great, the owner is a doll.
• Not much atmosphere, and so small you might miss it driving by!

“Best Chinese food in the Nashua/Derry area! Looks like any other small, family run Chinese restaurant, but the service and the food are outstanding. Lots of old favorites, like hot and sour soup and dumplings are far better than the other restaurants in the area. And some new favorites are delicious just try the Taiwanese Pork Chops, or the Chicken with Asparagus. Easy location to find, right across from McDonalds, but hidden in a strip mall.”

Big Bean Cafe Inc

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Great food, good service, very real.
• May have to wait on a weekend morning. But it's worth it.

“The food is excellent - it's like diner comfort food but with a healthy conscience (and the bread is amazing). Also, the service may not be fancy restaurant caliber, but for a breakfast/much spot you couldn't ask for more. It can get busy on weekend mornings, but just enjoy a cup of coffee while you wait.”

T-Bones Restaurant
Jul 25, 2008 by Beth from Portland

Overall Rating: 1

• Friendly waitress.
• Had a 10 second attention span.

“While wandering around looking for a place for dinner in Laconia. we came upon T-Bones. The menu looked fine and prices reasonable, however the food was nothing short of disgusting. Mind you, we're not some sort of want to be food critics either. this was just nasty. Our appetizer was billed a crab fritters, but when they arrived they were just something dumped out of a frozen food box - at that point, we knew we were in trouble. I ordered a hamburger, which the menu said was voted best burger in NH. It was dry as dust, with less taste than math paper. My wife ordered the salmon, which was a small fillet of smelly fish, covered by what looked like vomit after eating a bag of cheese-its ( I have a two year old, so I know).”

Weathervane Seafoods Inc
Jul 21, 2008 by Anna Freud from Concord

Overall Rating: 4

• Waitress, atmosphere.
• The attitude that the customer is not always right - a bad omen for a restaurant.

“July 21, 2008. I am sorry to report my disappointment with the Weathervane in Concord New Hampshire. After taking out a fried tilipia dinner, I had the occasion to dine at the restaurant. I, again, ordered the fried tilapia dinner with an extra piece fish, French fries and Cole slaw. After being served, I took a piece of one of fish fillets, and I found a foul order - like dead fish. I took another bite and decided that this particular fillet was bad. I bit into the other fillet and it was great! Being unable to get anyone's attention, I brought my dinner up to the counter and told them that one fillet was bad. They took my entire platter and said they would fry another fillet. After 10 minutes, the waitress brought the new platter to my table. This time one fillet was good, but the other was borderline. The cook did not warm up the French fries, but transferred them from the first platter to the second, which meant they were cold. The Cole slaw was on the verge of bad - having that tingle of unfreshness. I was very disappointed! After being charged the full price, I decided to not frequent the Weathervane anymore, and I will now go to Newick's. The turnoffs were: the poor attitude when I brought back the fish of not believing that I was right, but just a complainer. (I am a former New Yorker, very polite, but do want to get good quality for my money). The audacity of serving the second platter with cold fries and the lack of freshness of the Cole slaw, made this experience a very bad one. The waitress was friendly, but not always easily accessible.”

Blake's Ice Cream Restaurant
Jul 20, 2008 by Jennifer from Hooksett

Overall Rating: 1
Service:[1] •

• The male working was nice an asked if we'd been helped which we had been.
• Our server was rude an never got our ice cream to us it should of taken maybe 10 mins to make it wasn't busy at all.

“My friend an I went with our kids an all we ordered was ice cream an the server was very rude an moody. We ordered 3 ice creams an 25 minutes went by an we ended up leaving never got our ice creams. The server didn't greet us at all she came over an said what do you want? It was ridiculous!”

Food:[9] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Food and the price.
• Very casual atmosphere might turn some folks off.

“Great food, good prices, good service. What more could you want? If you are looking for formal, fine dining don't come here. But if you want good seafood this is the place. With a huge dining room large tables, red and white checked tablecloths and food served on paper plates Newick's is a distinctly New England restaurant. Definitely worth your time and there is even a small gift shop!”

Milltowne Grille

Overall Rating: 4
Food:[7] • Service:[4] • Atmosphere:[3]

• Good food selection.
• Slow service sometimes, fruit fly problem.

“Food is surprisingly good for an airport restaurant, as are the drinks. Good selection of both. Service is ok. Sit at the bar if you're in a hurry. And hopefully they will have done something about the fly/gnat problem. I used to eat there every week when I was commuting, but the last few times I wasn't able to take a bite of anything without swatting at the fruit flies/bar flies. Sort of gross.”

• Eliza who rang me up was great.
• The owner.

“As a business person who is on the road allot I look for places like Brewbakers to stop in and check e-mail. The owner of the shop came by and told me to unplug my computer because electricity is not free. Not friendly to the business traveler.”

“The tasteful photos from around the world illustrate the eclectic menu, with dishes influenced by international cuisine (hence the restaurant's name?) My companion and I had pasta dishes that were both excellent, and my glass of wine likewise. We're looking forward to our next dinner and theater evening.”

My family and I were served by this cute waitress that didn't let the smile slip from her face. I surprised when the food reached our table within 15 minutes of our ordering even though the place was full. Great family friendly restaurant!”

• The smell of smoke used to be awful but due to the new law, it's gone.

“I had the grilled chicken Caesar salad for lunch the other day, and I could actually tell that the chicken was indeed freshly grilled as opposed to the microwave chicken you would receive on top of some lettuce at any other place. The romaine lettuce went great with the plentiful dressing and chicken.”

New Asia Chinese Restaurant

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[7] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[1]

• Good food and prices.
• Lousy Karaoke.

“On Saturday March 15, I went to your restaurant to join the karaoke. I arrived at 8:45 an hour later the music started. Finally at about 10:15, the first singer sang. After about 5 or 6 singers the DJ put on music for over 45 minutes. The DJ would start a song then leave the booth. He was not there to adjust the sound when it was too loud or too soft or when the reverb would start to hum very loudly. It has been my experience that Karaoke was supposed to be customers singing through the night, not for twenty or thirty minutes. I decided to leave after being there for over two and a half hours and only hearing 5 or 6 singers. I was with a party of about 10 people, we all had the same Idea, we will not be back.”
