DUCKWORTH'S BISTRO

I was in Gloucester this past week for work and ate here one night. The quality of food here is amazing and the service is nothing but the best. To begin I had a bowl of the creamy mushroom soup which was fantastic. For my meal I ordered the monkfish. I've never had monkfish before and wasn't sure what to expect but I loved it, it was cooked to perfection and had an amazing flavor. This restaurant is a definite must. Next time I am in the Boston area, I will definitely be coming back here.

RUDDER RESTAURANT

I ate here recently on a business trip to Massachusetts. Everything about the restaurant was amazing. The service, the martinis and the food. I ordered the crab cakes for an appetizer and they were delicious. For my entrée I ordered the 2lb crab which was the best thing ever. It was the most satisfying meal I've had in awhile. I will definitely be coming back here next time I'm in the area. 

Maggiano's Little Italy

This is my mother's favorite restaurant and our whole family always comes here on her birthday. We always order from the family style menu. She said she likes to do it this way because it's like eating at home and everyone gets to try a little bit of everything.  The food here is decent Italian, I feel like it's gone down hill a little bit but is still pretty good. They have a great wine list and we always seem to get a server who isn't only friendly but knowledgeable about the food and wine. This is a great place to come for Italian with a group of people, you'll definitely be full by the time you leave.
