Nosh and Grog

My wife and I finally decided to give Nosh and Grog a try despite seeing some average reviews and complaints about customer service. We're so glad we trusted our instincts because our experience was absolutely perfect from start to finish!

As soon as we walked in, we were immediately greeted and seated. The interior of the restaurant is super cute and inviting. We initially went for lunch, but the friendly staff member at the door informed us that brunch was available, so we happily opted for that instead.

My wife ordered the Granola Parfait, and I went with their Big Nosh Burger along with a sour Mocktail. Our server, Kristin, promptly brought us water and took our order. The food arrived incredibly fast, and it was fresh and hot, just the way I love it.

Let me tell you about this burger - it was made to perfection, just the way God intended. The toasty brioche bun hugged two smashed wagyu patties with melted American cheese and crisp shredded lettuce. Nosh and Grog have truly mastered simplicity, executing it flawlessly. My wife was equally impressed with her parfait, which tasted amazing and was beautifully crafted. Even the fries were perfect and crispy.

From the moment we entered the restaurant to the impeccable service and incredible food, our experience at Nosh and Grog was nothing short of perfection. Kristin was fantastic, providing helpful information, fetching hot sauce, and even adding a touch of humor to our interactions.

We were thoroughly impressed and can't wait to go back again! Nosh and Grog delivers top-notch quality, and we had an absolutely wonderful experience. Don't let the average reviews fool you - this place is a gem!

What a BEAUTIFUL restaurant. I loved everything about my experience there from the service to the food to the welcoming atmosphere. Let's not forget the drinks at the bar. So good. I will DEFINITELY be back. I'm so happy I'm only 10 minutes away. I had the salmon, and it was perfection. Their butter boards are a must try. Farm to table fresh ingredients and scratch made everything. Can't get any better than that.

Taking over what was formely a Bertucci's, right in the always busy Cobbs Corner plaza, Nosh & Grog used to previously be located in Medfield. I had previously heard very mixed things about it and never had made it to their original spot but we did have lunch there earlier today and had a lot of mixed feelings about our experience.

First and foremost, our host didn't seat us immediately even though some tables were open. He did aknowledge us but made us wait unecessarily for a few minutes before guiding us to a table. We're not sure why we had to wait but it was odd. He wasn't particularly friendly either but whatever. Our menus came and they didn't have any of the kids menu printed; we had to ask our waiter for the options. Their beer menu is hidden behind a QR code for some reason as well. Seems like a lot of work to try and figure out what's available and what we can order.

We proceeded to order a bunch of stuff including the chips & dip ($7) which came with some potato chips and an allium dip which also had some scallions and ash on top. Decent but the ash felt unecessary. It was served in a cute little cast iron pan and overall it was pretty good and a great value at only $7. The ratio of dip to chips could have been a bit better (we ran out of chips long before we were done with the dip).

Then came our entrees - my kid's pasta with butter ($8.50) was awesome. It didn't come with a beverage but was served in a bento box-style and had pasta with butter, fries, housemade ketchup, and carrots. Portion size was on the fairly big side but I love the attention and detail brought to trying to feed kids somethig more nutrious. It was unexpected but definitely awesome.

I went with the Big Nosh burger ($20) which 2 waguy smashed patties, American cheese, lettuce, fancy sauce, pickles, and a brioche bun. The burger itself was awesome. I cannot say enough good things about it but at $20 on a lunch menu, it feels steep. It wasn't big by any stretch of the imagination and they nickel and dime you for a side. I had a dressed salad on the side for a $5 upcharge and didn't like it. The greens were insanely bitter and while the rainbow radishes were a nice touch, it still wasn't enough, with the dressing, to get me to work through it. $25 for a burger and salad, for lunch, left a bitter taste in my mouth and wallet.

My wife's mini soup & salad ($12) was a very odd dish - the green tomato bisque was not good at all. It felt like someone soaked some cheese in a lot of water and heated it up. It was thin, and had zero flavor. I'm honestly shocked it made it out of the pass. The sandwich which was a mini grilled cheese with some pesto and pickled peppers didn't work. She was not a fan.

Also to note that from the moment we sat, to the moment we got our food, roughly 40 minutes had passed. Everything just took for ever and while our waiter was friendly, the staff didn't appear to have much of a sense of urgency.

The decor is nice and they have some intriguing cocktail options but the prices just seem all over the place. Some things feel like decent value, while other options seem insane to me - I'm looking at you, $32 surcharge for adding dry-aged steak to any dish.

The decor is nice and I'm rooting for them to succeed as we need something like this in the area however it felt really expensive at the end of the day and I'm not sure I'd return because $85 (incl. tip) for our lunch is insane for what we ordered.

I love the vibes at Nosh and Grog! They strive to serve fine dining in a casual and comfortable environment and that’s exactly what they did. The servers were attentive and food was amazing! Also plenty of parking in a large plaza.

Came for early dinner. Great food! So/so service maybe we’ll sit at the bar next time. Had the pulled pork egg rolls (great!) and chicken sandwich (loved it), and bolognese (a little undercooked and not so much meat in ours to constitute a $36 dish). Duck fat old fashioned was amazing also. Overall a little pricey but still good food. Our water never got filled and the server took some time to get the bill to us (although it was busier by then), I’m also not fond the waiter standing next to you while you fill out the tip.
