This has been my go to place Fridays after work for years now. Everyone might not know your name but it feels like it. You do get recognized and greeted after you've been there a ...

Dogwood is okay - we have been there a few times and it's never been terrible but never terrific either. The Dogwood mostly stays in business because it's the only halfway decent ...

You never kow what to expect 6/4/2006

I like the dogwood becasue it is child firendly, except not all people teach thier children how to behave in public. The food is always wishy washy, sometimes its good, and sometimes not. if you find something you like, STICK TO IT, dont try other menu items. Sometimes the pizza is cooked all the way through sometimes not. One time my friend waited a half hour for a clean fork, and had to eat her salad with a knife finally. Sometimes the bartenders are so busy giggling with each other they dont notice you have seated yourself DIRECTLY in front of them for ten minutes! I dont know why we keep going there, convenience maybe? now this is an honest review. Pros: kid friendly, oven pizza Cons: undercooked food, BAD service, SLOW service more

wonderful food and great atmosphere 4/22/2006

Dogwood offers jamaica plain a great alternative for fantastic food and beer. As opposed to doyles just down the street, dogwood has really excellent food and a great selection of good beers. Atmosphere is usually good (sometimes a folk singer is booked which can be annoying if seated too close to). All in all, i would highly recommend folks to try this place out. Pros: food, great beer, parking more
