Maxwells 148 - Natick

The perfect place to celebrate our 48th high-time day! quiet and intimate ambiente. waitress, lush dessert!

The food was tasty with a mix of comfort type food with creative twists. The flavoring was superb in all of our dishes. Our waiter was very attentive and helpful in explaining the dishes and their ingredients. The lamb dropped off the bone in the lamb shank. I had the crispy noodles which was the perfect combo of flavor, and texture. Crispiness on the outside and soft, warm noodles underneath with strongly flavored chorizo and garlic aioli.

I thought it was overpriced for what we got. My husband ordered a drink and was charged DOUBLE what he has paid in many other resteraunts.

Four of us dined here last night. The carpaccio appetizer, oysters, and prune appetizers were absolutely excellent. My mother's chicken marsala and husband's cod special again, excellent. My daughter enjoyed her short rib ravioli. I ordered the lobster gnocchi in cognac cream sauce. The lobster was incredibly fishy. Disgusting!! I couldn't eat it. Our waitress was knowledgeable and friendly, and her attentiveness was wonderful. However, the wait between appetizers and entrees was excessive: more than 30 minutes. Given the prices, and the ease of getting terrific lobster in greater Boston, no thanks. Never returning.

We were delighted and surprised by the quiet, romantic setting. The outside is deceiving-plain and not assuming, but the inside provides a lovely setting for a delicious meal. Excellent food that was unique and expertly made. Service was charming, efficient and kind. An overall wonderful experience.
