Best Lunch Restaurants in West Newton

Had another great experience at Seasons 52 Chestnut Hill. Great ambiance, delicious food, and outstanding service! I had the sea bass and my friend had the shrimp and grits. The server was attentive and the desserts were a treat!

Since the beginning years ago, an outstanding restaurant continues to deliver creative Italian cooking and successful ambience...delicious every time. BRAVO!

Nice spot. Food was very good as was the service. We will go back.

An excellent small restaurant in Newton Center. Staff provides a warm welcome and great service. Whether you go for lunch or dinner, wine and food are superb. Try their fall/winter mushroom board with four innovative takes on familiar recipes. We will return!

This was our third time at The Bluebird Bar, our first for a special occasion, a birthday. We ordered mussels as an appetizer, which were absolutely delicious and plentiful. The main course of salmon, which my husband asked to have cooked through was good, but kind of bland. My steak tips were good and came with fries that were exceptional! The curious part came towards the end of our time there. We were well-fed, but might have ordered a dessert, since this was a birthday celebration. The bill came and no dessert menu was offered, nor was any little gesture made in honor of the birthday. The person seating us did give happy birthday wishes verbally, but that was it. Most times we and friends have eaten out to celebrate a birthday, some gesture has been made at other restaurants. We enjoy The Bluebird Bar and will return, but my advice to the restaurant is to pay some kind of tangible attention to someone celebrating a birthday with you.
