★★★★★ 5.0 Mira A. · Aug 2025

First time at this place and to describe it in one word it is “ Phenomenal”. The place is homie and beautiful, I felt like I entered my granny’s home and smell all the delicious food she is making. The staff is so friendly and welcoming like you just come home for thanksgiving to your family. The food, OH MY, home made pasta, home made sauce, portions to feed a family of 10 😆. You will definitely have leftovers that you will thoroughly enjoy the next day while dreaming about your next time to Artichokes! I had heard of this place but never thought it would blow my mind and my taste buds. Definitely need to check this place out, you might just bump into me devouring something delicious.

I was so impressed with my meal. I love the friendly staff and I ate at the bar. Toni was a great bartender and super friendly and made some great suggestions ! I love the bread too much. I got the special chicken dish and took 2/3 of it home ! It was so much food ......my ravioli app was perfection

Can’t wait to go back. The lobster ravioli was so good. Great portion sizes for the price too!

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Dr. Liz Coleman · Jan 2026

My colleagues recommended visiting while in the Boston area. The food is great. Fresh, with good flavor. However, I’m not sure I’d return due to the service. My group and I felt like we were intruding, and a bother to the waitstaff. Our server, older woman, was very cranky, barely attentive, and took over 20 minutes to get a beverage. I’m not one to complain, however it really disappointed us that the food was so good, but the subpar service really left a day taste in our mouth, especially when we are a very easy group.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Linda Follett · Jan 2026

Arrived on time for a 5:30 res. Hostess pointed to table and said go straight ahead the menus are already on the table. Ok, don’t get up it’s fine we seat ourselves. Server who might be Carol not sure but was terrible. It’s time to retire. Forgot one of our drinks and said bartender would bring it. We had to ask other server for refills on water and grated cheese. Food was ok but this isn’t about the food this is about the service. Our two adult kids had to leave and me and my husband asked for a dessert menu. She had to check with the kitchen to see what they have. She continued to help her other tables when she finally came back and said let me get you a bag for your left over. I said we will just take the check. No dessert she was waiting for my kids to come back when they clearly left
