My hudband and I found Out of the Woods as we were on our way to a concert & decided to check it out. Now we can't wait to go back! The best food that we've had in greater Boston, including Boston itself, and the best duck I've had since living in New Orleans back in 2003. Highly recommend!

My date and l dined @ Goodnight Johnny’s and our appetizers, dinners and desserts were fresh and reasonably priced. We stayed for the Saturday night entertainment- Bam the Drummer! We has so much fun with his music and banter with the audience. We joined others on the dance floor and left very impressed. We’ll be back. Great food and great vibes!

I rarely leave reviews, but I had to for this. I ordered the filet mignon with caramelized onions, green beans, and a twice-baked potato. This meal was a 10/10 and cooked to perfection! No offense to the "other" restaurant in the area... but Tomahawk is officially our NEW go-to steakhouse!

• Comfort Food • Somerville

It's a great re-incarnation of an old neighborhood haunt. We liked the new ambience and music, there was a good selection in the menu, appropriately priced and the Saturday crowd was energetic, as expected. The margarita was not on par with Rudy's but that can be improved upon. We'll be coming back frequently!
