My girlfriend and I just went to 86 Winter and she got the Gorgonzola and pasta special and I got the pork loin stuffed with corn bread. My meal came out with 2 overcooked, tough slabs of pork with a square of cornbread and cheese on top. When I asked why the pork wasn't stuffed, the waiter just s...
Portobello has been in business for over ten years on a very busy street. When I first entered Portobello, I felt like I was walking into a restaurant in Italy. The restaurant is headed by a profesional chef. Go to Portobello you will love it we did. Portobello is the way Italian restaurant are supp...
This is Worcester's best kept secret. Large portions of great Italian dishes. Nice fresh Italian bread and Marinara for dipping. Lots of takeout orders and you get seated pretty quickly too, if you want. Nothing fancy but great food.

there Orange chicken is great and so isnt there beef with brocoli
My girlfriend and I ate 86 Winter last night. We have passed the restaurant many times over the past few months, we've reviewed the menu online and have always wondered what it was like, but we never choose to dine there...until yesterday. Our concerns arose from the moment we walked through the doo...
I don't normally write negative reviews. Any restaurant can have an off night. But this was hands down one of the worst meals I have ever had. I had some early misgivings when we walked into an empty restaurant, just a half-block away from the always overflowing Sole Proprietor, Boynton, and Sahara....
LOVE LOVE LOVE, Nancy Chang -- and you will too! It is by far the best Chinese dining in Worcester. Great ambience, great service, and clean too boot! I am picky with my chinese food, and I am always sketchy to try new places. When I ate at Nancy Chang for the first time, I was upset that I have m...
My husband and I went for his birthday prior to going to the theatre. We got there 2 hours before our show and ordered 20 minutes after we arrived. Our dinner still wasn't served 10 minutes before our show started.We had to leave my sister there to pay for our drinks. They boxed up our food, gave it...
I disagree with the other reviewer's comments. The food quality is good to excellent, and you get what you pay for with most entrees in the teens and lower twenties. (if you prefer to pay lower prices, then you're going to get mediocre food that isn't innovative, unlike that of 86 Winter). The ow...
Our favorite restaurant in Worcester. We live in NY, but when we visit out son at WPI we ALWAYS hit this place.

OUTSTANDING IN ALL RESPECTS!!!
I liked the food very much, but for 3 entrees (1 side dish), it was pricey @ $40--comparable to restaurant prices w/o the service. They kept me on hold for longer than usual (just to ask what time they closed). However, I thought the pizza was the best I'd had in ages and I would return just for th...
My husband and I have been dining at Sakura Tokyo for over 10 years now and WE LOVE IT! Great place for kids. The chefs are wonderful and provide an entertaining evening for the whole family. My son is now 7 years old and has been dining here since he was an infant. We are well known to the owners a...
Overpriced! I have had better food at other local restaurants at more reasonable prices. The owners take care of (or please) the "alternative" clientele more so than the "normal" clientele. If you are not of the "alternative lifestyle," do not visit this establishment, because you will not be welcom...
"DELICIOUS !"
#1 great food
This place is really for take out - it's crazy busy and there are only a couple tables. that said I am not tremendously impressed with this pizza. They skimp on the "good ingredients" I asked for a pizza with fresh tomatoes and fresh basil - I think there were maybe four leaves of basil. and I'm...
although I have walked in and ordered at Ciao Bella, I have to say that calling to place an order may be more difficult than getting an organ transplant.After being hung up on 3 times then being put on hold for 10 minutes, I never was able to order. Clearly there are some service issues. Management ...
I called ahead and it was ready when I arrived... very fresh, cheap ($5 for dinner) and portion size was perfect. Doesn't come with any extras (tartar sauce, ketchup or lemon), but good enough to eat without. Overall, will probably be back, especially during the lent season.
