Red Heat Tavern

Much better than we expected! Went for lunch, and enjoyed the vg fried calamari appetizer.

Good wrap, but next time I should ask for 'lots of clilatro' :)

Being a cheapskate, we should prolly split a 20oz beer.
       
H said the beet salad  was quite good.

Overall a bit expensive, but free refills for iced tea!

Holi

Holi is a newish Indian restaurant that replaced Dalya's. It's pretty good and seems very popular.
We've had the lunch buffet a few times. One thing that is nice is that a drink is included in the price.
I do wish they used a different color on the walls!

Al Fresca in Tewksbury

Al Fresca is an excellent Italian place in Tewksbury. We've been twice. Very rich. The risotto is probably the dish to order for lunch. A side salad is only $2. Soso decor. Not sure about the iced tea either, but not bad. Ask how much desserts are at lunch!

Moonstones

What a nice place in Chelmsford! We took the whole extended family for dinner and it was really good! Expensive but worth it. Recently just the two of us had lunch: beef carpaccio was very good if a bit small; crab salad was excellent; yummy shrimp risotto & great burger. Free iced tea refills, almost perfect service.

My only complaint is that the menu doesn't seem to vary.

The Capital Grille, Burlington

We have been to the Capital Grille in Burlington a few times for lunch. What a fabulous restaurant!
We have really enjoyed just about everything we've eaten here. L had a crock of onion soup last time and it was huge and quite nice for $10. The Cobb salad was very good but not amazing.

Free refills for iced tea.

Usually the service is phenomenal but last time we were not impressed with Margaret, our waitress.

Oh yeah, desserts are huge! We had a piece of cake which could easily have served 3. It was good. We have also tried the ice cream (or was it gelato?) and they were excellent!

Cucina D

We liked Cucina D over near the Bedford Glen. I had Linguine Carbonara which was vy good, and H had Osso Bucco, which was good and huge!

Maki Maki in Woburn

This is the restaurant that replaced the Far East Cafe'. Took a very long time to open and does have a very nice, modern decor. The food was pretty good for dinner albeit a bit slow. I was amused that a waiter at this sushi place did not know the word 'nigiri'.

We tried to go back with a friend on a weeknight and it was packed so we went elsewhere. I guess the word has gotten out that it's a good deal!

Most things are good here but we did not like the "Woburn Roll."
