What People Are Saying About Tuscan Grill

The Editor

Citysearch

The Scene – Ever popular with suburbanites and in-the-know gourmands, this secretive Waltham hot spot churns out exceptional Italian fare. Diners sit in close quarters--the restaurant can get quite noisy when packed--to get a taste of the open kitchen's award-winning fare. The handsome, well-stocked bar is a perfect place for a romantic date. Knowledgeable, jeans-clad servers add to the casual atmosphere. – – The Food – The menu changes seasonally, but the overall tone is constant: hearty Tuscan cooking (homemade pastas and rustic wood-grilled steaks and chops).

what's that guy's problem?

by shockedoncitysearch

Honestly the previous reviewer ( you know the one who had the potty mouth), has got to get a life! He really had to come home from supposedly eating at the Tuscan Grill and write 5 reviews? Honestly.

1.) if you were so disappointed why did you not say anything to the server, hostess, manager? (there was no mention you did) and if you HAD... I think that you would have written about it. Hmm, sounds like you made just a *tiny** bit up, if not everything.

2.) do you really miss your creative writing class that bad?

3.) Even if you are very descriptive, you can't keep your writing out of the gutter, which shows your low class, and no one likes a loser.

Now run along to your miserable life.

  • Pros: great food
  • Cons: can be a bit noisy on weekends

Why go

by nikki10

An unbelievably noisy experience. The food is variable, but can be quite fine. The waitstaff is varible, but can be quite terrible. Best to go on a very off hour. Think Sunday at 5 PM. Or preferably, Waltham has 2 other really unique italian restaurants. So unless you're 25, and thrive on annoyance, why go?

noisy, cramped and bad food

by lairdwd

Cannot recommend this place. Very noisy and cramped. Pasta and fish dishes were dull. House wine was along the line of the $3.99 a bottle variety (not 3 buck chuck either) at $7 a glass. We ordered a tuna tar tar for an appetiser that was totally nasty. When we suggested to the waitress that we were not happy with it, no offer of a refund was brought up. I expect better from a 3 dollar sign restaurant.

Save your money, you can do much better elsewhere

  • Pros: nothing
  • Cons: see review
