Restaurants near Rocky Narrows Reservation

We enjoy visiting Papa Razzi in Wellesley, the food is always prepared well and the service prompt, courteous and attentive. It can get quite noisy when the restaurant starts to fill, and many families in Wellesley consider this a great place to dine with small children. Definitely make a reservation or check ahead on OpenTable to see availability before fighting for a parking spot.

We had a booth which was lovely for our book club discussion. Our server was excellent and we each had the grain salads, which were excellent! We had a lovely evening!

Perfect craft season drinks ..grain harvest bowl with blackened chicken was amazing and robustly full of fall flavors. Loved it. I added arugula yumm

Per usual we had a wonderful meal last night and introduced Basil to the couple we dined with and they agreed! Our server was great and brought our drinks over so quickly followed by an appetizer of chilli glazed calamari which was so good. Two of us ordered duck, mine with the twice stuffed potato, another got the swordfish special which presented with such a thick piece of fish which my friend loved and devoured! Another got salmon and was very pleased. We all shared slices of key lime pie and the special pecan pie aka mode both of which were yummy! The only criticism I would make is the bread served was cold and a bit on the dry side. Perhaps a more interesting and warm bread would be nice. Make sure to have reservations as this place is jumping on weekends with long walk in wait times. Basil has become our favourite go to in the area!

We had an amazing time. The service was absolutely fantastic. Thank you Shannon! There were 4 of us. We ordered meatballs and pork belly apps. Cesar salads (we got 2 and they split them for us in the kitchen) - good sizes. All delicious. For entrée we had, short ribs, sirloin steak, Kansas City steak and twin petit filet mignon. All perfectly cooked and very tasty. We complimented the meals with asparagus, spinach and hash browns. For dessert we got ice cream, chocolate explosion and key lime. All very good as well. This is the type of experience we look for when we get together every month for dinner! We shall return!
