Best American Restaurants in View Park

The food was great! We had Bougie Tots, Caesar salad (tossed at the table old school), Veal Chop (best we've ever had), Porterhouse, Sand Dabs, Shrimp Scampi, Scalloped Potatoes, Broccolini. We should have ordered the beef that had more marbling. Ours was just a little tough. The room is great. I w as expecting more noise. It was loud but the table was small & so we're all close & could hear each other just fine. It is really dark - but it's terrific atmosphere. We did use cell phones to read the menus. Our waiter Angel was the best.

Somerville accommodated us for a larger party as best they could from such a high debut demand. We were seated promptly. Service, food, drinks, vibe were all outstanding. Fantastic blessing to the neighborhood and will be patronizing Somerville for years to come.

We were seated in a timely manner and waited on within a reasonable time. Our waiter was excellent. Food was good, just had to wait on the shrimp and grits so probably could have waited to bring everything at once. Overall an excellent night out with family from out of town. They were. Impressed.

The food was really outstanding, and the service was very, very good. The room is noisy and it was made worse by some of the music choices and the volume of the music. The lighting at night time is not ideal for a restaurant offering this quality of food. It would be nicer to enjoy the food and the service in an environment where you don't have to yell at each other. The acoustics of the room is difficult, so maybe it would be wise to tone things down a little bit.

This is our second time eating at Lawry's for Thanksgiving, and it per usual was fantastic. Food and service were top notch, and while we did have to wait to be seated past our reservation time, considering how busy it was, I don't think it detracted from the evening at all.
