$$$$Price: Very Expensive • American • Cambridge
Overall we had a great meal at Pammy’s. The food and service were great, and the ambiance and decor were lovely.
The value of the menu is lacking imo. $84 with no drinks including for 3 relatively small plates. The “choose your own adventure” seems to be a bit of a gimmick as most people will order a starter, pasta, and main.
Not only that, but they tack on a mandatory 6% extra charge for their kitchen staff. Here’s an idea- they should use the substantial amount of money we pay them for the food and drinks, and use that to pay their staff a fair wage. I have to say it left a terrible taste to feel nickel and dimed in this way.
At $550 for a dinner for 4, with only about one drink per person, as much as I enjoyed the meal, I can’t say this was a good value or something I’d do again. I would strongly advise that they include any mandatory fees in the cost they advertise, instead of hiding a surprise fee in fine print on the menu.
