Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Needham

We had a delightful Monday evening dining here. We had three appetizers, and our servers did a wonderful job of timing them so we could enjoy each on its own. The mushroom platter never disappoints, and we also enjoyed a cheese plate and delicious mussels. We like to go places where it isn’t too noisy, and the smaller size and table arrangement here allows for good conversation with just the right amount of liveliness.

We have come here before, so felt we knew what to expect. It was one of the few restaurants still taking Valentine reservations. The service was excellent, but the food was subpar in both taste and quality. The sea bass had been prepared and in addition had sat on the pass thru for a while. The steak was overcooked and of mediocre quality. We will not be returning to dine here - it simply isn’t worth it.

Service was efficient and courteous. Food was delicious. They were very accommodating to my wife’s food allergy. Never disappointed.

Great food! Quiet on a Friday afternoon but service was great.

Nice, Casual, good place to catch up with friends -- our server was extremely friendly and knowledgeable.
