An unforgettable Italian food experience. We enjoy sitting at the bar. Very friendly wait staff every time. And awesome Pizza !!!
Had their spicy stuffed quahog which was sweat-inducing and beautifully garnished with shaved carrots and lemon, a linguica with onions and peppers with a thick crust, and the Greek shrimp scampi which had lots of olives, garlic and shrimp. The service was outstanding and friendly. The only negative is the ambiance which, though clean, was rather dull. The bathrooms were very clean. Nearby parking was ample. We will be back.
The food is always great, just don't expect to get all of your meal, unless you are dining in. For some reason I got short changed on my meal again. I ordered Spanish tips over chips, and got tips with no chips, it's like getting chicken palm without the pasta. There seems to be a disconnect or lack of quality control with take out orders, not only in what was ordered, but who gets what food ordered. Being a staple in the community with great food, It is worth the trip, just confirm your order before you leave!
Ambiance- getting beyond the tricky parking, found the restaurant friendly, welcoming, and clean. Liked the openness of the seating area. It was a calm, relaxing dinner experience. Our waitress was attentive and friendly, albeit very busy. Food- 1- cheese pizza... LOVED it. Usually drive 45 min away to another place for favorite pizza, but this one is such a close 2nd, that I would save myself the trip and order it again and again. 2- seafood risotto... admit I was nervous when it arrived. It didn't look like something I would like, purely based on appearance. BUT, I was wrong! It was SO GOOD. Sauce and risotto were creamy, seafood cooked just right, and there was so much of it! I don't like hot tomatoes, so moved those to the side, but I scraped that plate clean. So good. 3- fish and chips... fish- hearty portion and delicious. Only negative was that the batter was greasier than I like, but I'd still order it again! Wasn't crazy about the chips. Just meh. 4- fried Oreos.... I wanted to love these, but after my seafood risotto, the bread, and tasting the fish (which was also fried and a tad greasy), I couldn't enjoy the Oreos. I was too full. I'm sure if I wasn't full, it would've been a different story!
Starting early is a good wait to watch what happens I started at just pst 5 pm. FYI Marty is the very best bartender and as was the lady who served me this evening. I arrived to sit at a high top but didn't realize I should have checked in ( my mistake) but was cleared up but then server after server passed by After ten minutes and another couple who sat before me were served a very kind lady came by and everything was all set from that point on. Ordered a quesadilla which was delicious and then chicken and broccoli dish couple drinks. In comparison a dinner I had the night before in Westport Ma tonight's was perfect
I had Fay's at a friends for take out and it was great but this time I dined in. I think I overheard a server say they were short cooks but you wouldn't know it. The service was quick and the staff was hustling. I had clam chowder which was full of clams and potatoes and I have to say was one of the best I've ever had. The stuffed quahog was also full of clams and very flavorful. I have an antipasto salad for an entree and it had a good variety for a salad. Oh and if they ask if you want bread and oil for the table SAY YES! The bread was warm and the dipping oil was seasoned perfectly.
We stopped by Fay's this afternoon for a late lunch. It's been a long time since we dined almost weekly at the old Fay's in the north end, so almost everything was new for us... but not quite. In the old days, we each ordered a garden salad with peppercorn parmesan dressing, and then we split an onion and mushroom pizza. And that's almost what G (god bless her) ordered: garden salad with peppercorn parmesan dressing and a pizza with feta and spinach. Both were as great as ever, G said. I agreed about the pizza, for sure! Thin crisp crust, delicious red sauce, plenty of spinach and feta. I began with a cup of chowder, and I was impressed! Not too thick or thin, potatoes cut in perfect 1/4" cubes, plenty of clams. For my meal, I ordered fish tacos (I order fish tacos EVERYWHERE, ALWAYS). Only two in an order but OMG! They are HUGE and HUGELY delicious, so much fish I could have taken home pocketfuls. They're served with sweet potato fries. By the time I finished one (see attached pic), I wondered if my eyes were bigger than my stomach. Nevertheless, I choked down the second (happily)and carried the fries home. I already know my go-to meal at Fay's.
YUM! We just got sandwiches to go, I got the Venetian Sandwich, the bread is outstanding, fresh grilled chicken, fresh veggies - hit the spot! I had the cole slaw, also super fresh w a very light dressing, VERY GOOD. and there is a good selection of sides for the sandwiches. In addition, I am always pleased to see biodegradable take out containers. I make note of those places, and feel good about getting take out there. We are looking forward to going for dinner, maybe this Saturday!
