Best Service & Breakfast 1/22/2010

I eat at this restaurant maybe two or three times a week. The food is excellent, the service is awesome, the waitresses working when I went there were very friendly/talkative and value for money is most important. I have read some of the bad reviews on here and I'm trying to figure out how and why but I have come to realise that some people cannot be pleased. It's a local restaurant/cafe not a 5 star restaurant. I think some people forget where they are sometimes, think they are royality or expect to be served the second they walk through the door. For those people I strongly suggest the drive thru at McDonalds or Burger King or just stay at home. I would not last long as a Waiter/Waitress for sure as I don't have the patience for ignorant folks. A baseball bat to the head is what comes to mind! Anyways, this is a great restaurant. Highly recommended for the food, service, friendly waitresses and value for money. Pros: Excellent Food, Service, Friendly Waitresses, Value for $$ Cons: Nada more

A Wonderful Place To Eat! 1/20/2010

The Spring Street Cafe is a wonderful place to eat. They have delicious Irish breakfasts, as well as terrific omelettes, pancakes, etc. Their lunches and soups are yummy, too. All soup is homemade, as are the muffins. It closes at 3:00, and then reopens at 4:30. You can get breakfast until 3:00, and only dinner after 4:30. They also serve wine and beer. It's a place that feels like home. One particular Irish waitress is so nice, and we often go there just to see her. Pros: Feels Like Home more

Class and Color DO matter 5/25/2009

I considered my first visit dirty when I had to ask for clean utensils. I decided to give the cafe the benefit of the doubt. But, on the second visit after 30 minutes I asked the head waitress if I'd be served soon. (my coffee cup was long empty) Several customers had come in after me and were finishing their breakfast. I asked the head waitress when I could expect to be served. Ten minutes later, still no food. When I asked again I was told possibly there was a mix-up in the orders. I told her I couldn't wait any longer, this was an unfortunately bad start to my day, and that I thought the coffee should be complimentary. She called me ""white trash"".!!!!!! Hopefully, several other customers heard her remark!! Pros: good parking Cons: staff attitude more

Ireland goes Italian 6/20/2008

Ireland gone Italian is the theme @ Spring. Adequate choices of perfectly prepared homestyle Italian served Irish-style by gruff, efficient waiters. No ambiance but the joint is clean, a little tight and loud with friendly chatter. The owners cater to the locals for breakfast, if you're not a regular don't get bent out of shape, your turn will come. Lunch is a free for all but dinners are reserved mostly for the Italian side of County Kerry. Don't venture into the No End when this gem is right in the neighborhood. Fresh ingredients, sometimes fresh service but always freshly prepared for reasonable pricing. Nice soups and even an occasional good cut of fish, Irish style- meaning fresh, non-greasy and plentiful. Make friends, become a regular, the food will turn you into a foodie. If you can, wear green and orange, the service goes up from there. Pros: local without the need to head to Federal Hill RI or the No End in Boston Cons: Irregular seating- no reservations. more

Highly Recommended! 1/11/2008

Five of us met here recently on the recommendation of relatives who know good food and wine. We were not disappointed! The menu was not huge, but broad and varied enough to tempt us each with several choices. We each ordered a different entree, including two from the daily specials. Everyone was happy with his meal. The servings sizes were generous, not skimpy like so many of the North End higher priced restaurants. My veal dish was as good as I've had anywhere, with the bonus of leftovers to savor yet again. Meg, our server, was very attentive and accommodating. The atmosphere, while not white tablecloth, is new, modern, and clean. Easy to reach and easy to park, I'm looking forward to our next visit! Pros: Good menu, good food, great service Cons: limited seating capacity more

This is not your average cafe! A True Gem! 2/24/2006

I lived in Boston and went through to Dedham plenty of times. Every time I passed this little restuarant I always thought it was some sort of diner and therefore never went in. Well after YEARS of ignorance I actually went in because I figured I could eat some comfort food with my family...well...what a surprise. This cafe should be in the midst of the restaurants in the North End. Great food, perfect pricing and amazing portions. My father who happens to be the most critical of diners thought this was a true gem of a restaurant. Of course it's definitely a masked diamond but the food is impeccable and the atmosphere is cozy and reminds me of the seaside restaurants on the cape. No more going to the North End for food I can get close by. I'll definitely be back..soon. Try the Gnocchi on Spring Street...yummmm Pros: Amazing Italian Food, Cozy- Cape Codish , Plenty of Parking Cons: The name is decieving, on major intersection more

not a coffee shop!! 5/14/2004

Spring St Cafe has arguably the best italian meals in the west roxbury/dedham area; unfortunately Citysearch keeps referring to it as a coffee shop-absolutely no way , my friends! This is probably the most underrated italian resaurant in Greater Boston. Granted it's not the fanciest place to eat, but the food is very, very well done (and you can dine without wearing a suit!) If you love calamari, you will not be dissapointed with the appetizer... Pros: Food, Food, Food more
