What's the attraction/Olive Garden
Attended a party at the Olive Garden in Peabody. the place had a 1/2hr wait at 12-why? The food is a "chain" quality, plates were hot because they are probably sitting under heat lites, bread tasted like flavored wonder bread, salad, is just salad, and I didn't think the prices were any bargin. glad I didn't have to pay. First and last time I'll be there

Crush Pizzeria, Nashua?
read about Crush in the Boston Globe, and was going to Nashua for a few days. Crush was worth searching for. it was everything the Globe stated. Great pizza and the chicken wings were wonderful. It was worth going there. There is a Angela's Pizza in MA that is pretty much the same as Crush, but I found Crush's better, toppings were fresher along with the great cheese..

The New Brown Jug - Beware!
where is there new location?, will wait a few weeks for them to work out the kinks, but always loved the place, but haven't been in a few years.
Santarpio's Peabody
has anyone tried anything beside the Pizza? heard the Lamb is not so great, kinda chewy. Haven't been to the old one in years, would like to try the new one
Lobster roll-winthrop
went there for lunch today, the best lobster roll around, the clam shack in Kennebunkport can't hold a candle to this place, it had about a 1lb of lobster meat in it, you need a fork, and for $18.95 you also get a side
Lobster roll-winthrop
Heard of a great place in Winthrop, just a "shack" on Bell Island, not too sure of the exact name, looking for directions and any feed back.
Knife sharpening?
I have my knives sharpened once a year (at the Holidays )at Ace Hardware on Commerical St in Malden, they are very reasonable, I think it's $2 a knife, but they keep them a few days and do a great
Great Lunch In Ogunquit,Perkins Cove
when you have had enough of seafood, and want a great piece of "beef", Prime is the place, have been there many times and last Sat. had a 14oz, rib eye with a bone about 18"long (great for the dog) that was cooked to perfection (med-rare) with a choice of sauces and sides, it's on the road to Perkins Cove, drive slow you might miss it.

MARIO'S RESTAURANT &GRILL-EVERETT
A friend of mine fell on this small place it use to be the NottyPine on Ferry St , said the $ is right and good portions and very good Italian and seafood, has anyone tried it yet?
Agave Mexican Grille in Malden -- stay away!
I wish I had read this post before going, won't go again, food was very bland

that's where mine came from too, groupon. good reason to try many new places
Sixty2 on the Wharf-Salem
just recieved a gift certificate, never been there, what do you recommend?, saw the menu, plan on going in June for a special occassion
Restaurant Depot Worth it?
have been there many times, can get good buys but like everything that comes in bulk, you need room to store it. meat and frozen foods are a good deal
ordering sushi
Went to All Seasons Table in Malden, and wanted Sushi, but my husband and I are new to eating it and left it up to the waiter to order us a few things, evreything was great but we didn't know what we were eating. we would have order more but just don't know what the difference in each piece , they had a special sushi menu, but we didn't have a clue how to order, we eat just about anything. any help out there?
tipping
When I go out to dinner and I usually tip 20-25% , which I thought was ok, today I went to a buffet brunch (although there were 10 of us) and I know they usually put the tip on the bill, but 20% to leave pots of coffee on the table and clear of dishes?? I thought between 12-15% would have been a good enough, am I behind on the times?
