Caffeine's Midtown

This wonderful restaurant was recommended to me by a stranger at a car club event, mainly because of my affinity for coffee, and the name being applicable, etc. However, they also said the food was good, nice environment, fun, etc., and it would be a worthy stop on my culinary adventures. Well, let me just say I think they severely undersold this place!! Caffeine’s Midtown is one of the best restaurants I have visited in YEARS 😍 It’s intimate, tastefully decorated/designed, they have a mood appropriate music playlist in the background at a reasonable volume (unlike the many establishments of late blasting Alt Rock at 100dbs 🤪), the older gentleman who greeted us at the front was engaging, personable, and kind. Our server was attentive, thorough, and lively. The overall atmosphere was cond

Had dinner with my wife Thursday evening and we found the restaurant to be fantastic. The service was great and food was delicious. We ordered the Catalan Octopus and roasted baby beets for appetizers as well as the 2 specials which included pan seared scallops and the filet mignon. Everything was flavorful and cooked to perfection. Highly recommended, worth the price, and we will be back soon.

We have been here a few times already, and every evening spent here far exceeds our expectations. For starters, the atmosphere is so welcoming and lively. The service is phenomenal, every staff member is kind and so knowledgeable with the menu. The drinks are beautifully made, and taste incredible. On top of all that, the food…oh my the food is pristine. My husband and I try to have date nights every week, so we have tried a lot of different restaurants in Western MA and beyond —this is by far the best food we have had. And it’s local! Perfection all the way around.

We had a lovely dinner here. The waitstaff is very attentive and super helpful. It was very kind of the chef to offer us a little bowl of beef soup for the wait. It was a very busy night and our first time dining here, so we were excited to try a new dish. The beef soup was excellent btw and I highly recommend it. I tried the eggplant rollatini as an app. It was very good and spicy if you could tolerate a little red pepper flakes. My friend ordered the steak special and said it was very tender and deliciously prepared. I had the Haddock, which was light, flakey, and perfect. No fishy taste. The veggies, sauce, and pasta complimented the Haddock very well. The portions were very generous, too. For the dessert, my friend tried a slice of the coconut cake. It was a HUGE piece and very tasty.

Our 1st visit to this gem of a restaurant after afternoon Home for the Holidays production at the nearby Majestic Theater. We saw the ad in the program and decided to try it...so glad we did. Our server, Donna, recited the specials in such an enticing manner it was an art form. I chose items that I may never have even considered before hearing her descriptions. I had the Oysters Rockefeller...truly divine. I also had the Halibut wrapped in the thinnest potato crust over asparagus with crema which was creative and just superb. My husband, who is a pretty picky eater, loved his Spinach/Pear with fig and gorgonzola salad for a starter and Lemon Pecorino Chicken as his entree. We shared a dessert of gelato with fresh fruit and chocolate that was also a perfect ending to our wonderful me
