The food , the atmosphere, the service is impeccable. The staff over and beyond kind . Only at Farmstead can you have the untimate pop over, their jam is homemade .If you want to treat yourself to a peaceful cozy and delicious food you must try it . Our waiter Forest couldn’t be more caring . So lucky we have you !
Delicious food, very cute atmosphere and nice personnel! The buns on these burger taste like they were just baked, meat is so fresh and delicious (you should 100% try it). Hint: order Espresso Martini - it’s so good and not very sweet which I prefer.
The cozy, farmhouse-style ambiance creates a warm and inviting dining experience. The menu good options for vegetarian person, and every dish is beautifully presented. I especially loved the Mushroom Dumplings, which was packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. The service was exceptionally friendly.
Cute little place with curated menu. We had popovers, mussels, broccolini, and shiitake dumplings. Concept is good but execution lacking on the Fri evening that we were there. Crispy Cheese wafer on broccoli was old and stale, popovers were not fresh either. Mussels and dumplings had fantastic flavors. Nice atmosphere to catch up with friends.
Love this place, and I have been here more than 10 times over 2 years. They offer great food, quality, service and atmosphere. Menu changes by season so you can expect to get various selection of dishes, and I would like to try all the dishes they offer season by season. I cannot specify certain dishes I had since I tried more than 80% of the menu here. Cocktail and beverages are also something that you can rely on. All were good and none of them disappointed me. Service is always welcoming and comfortable regardless you visit here for brunch, lunch, or dinner. This is a cozy small friendly, but not fancy. Yet, the quality of the food is fancy.
I was lucky enough to have dinner at Farmstead tonight on Valentines… actually celebrating my birthday which is tomorrow… Well, I was blown away! Knowledge staff ✅ welcome and comfortable dining room ✅ and the food… Outstanding!! Start to finish it was great!! I’m a chef myself and sometimes it’s cumbersome to go out and enjoy a meal without losing the experience because of years in the industry. Tonight… I felt like a guest, and that to me was special. I will hands down be back!! Thanks again Farmstead for the great experience!!!
We had the most delish dinner with incredible service last month at Farmstead Table. We sat in the bar area at one of the bistro tables and the bartender went above and beyond for us. You can’t skip the popovers & mussels for starters. I enjoyed the steak frites and my husband loved his fish dish. We can’t wait to come back!
We had an incredible experience. The service was exceptional — shoutout to the waiter with the fun light-blue apron! He knows his stuff and all of his recommendations were spectacular. We had the striped bass, which was delicate and had nice depth in taste; the popovers were fresh, crispy, and light; and our strawberry shortcake had the right balance of sweetness from the cake, a light hint of mint, and the fruity/tartness of the berries. It was a beautiful dinner. The restaurant pays attention to the details of every dish and it shows! My mother came to visit and celebrate me/my partner’s one year in Boston… Farmstead was the highlight of our night.
We enjoyed a wonderful meal at Farmstead, they took great care of us! Everything that we ordered was fantastic! One important note: the menus online are not labeled but there are different menus between lunch and dinner so you can’t get some dishes.
Nice little American rustic restaurant tucked in the back streets of Newton Center. Small menus, always a plus. Popovers were a must have. Warm and airy, inside slightly custardy, paired perfectly with butter and jam (of course it has to be Strawberry). Autumn salad was great, perfectly refreshing. Sweet figs and creamy goat cheese added new layers of depth and complexity. Pork chop was a my favorite in the Main course selection. Pork was tender and cooked to perfection, and well seasoned. Halibut was also very good, delicious earthy spices crusted, with sweet and delicious lentils and beets puree. My only small issue was the mash which came with the pork chop was good, but very bland and flavorless, not quite sure what it was. Libby, our waitress, was nice, warm, and sweet. She was amazing, and so fun to chat with. Excellent service.
