Although other competition has moved into Newton Centre (e.g., Cold Stone), JP Licks is still the best ice cream in Newton Center. My favorite is the oreo coffee ice cream. They make great ice cream cakes too!

I happened upon this place by accident one day a couple of weeks ago, and I've been back 5 times since.
The breakfast is very good and very reasonably priced. The sausage egg and cheese on an onion bagel was delicious. I also really liked the turkey club and the chicken parmesan sub. Most of the sandwiches are around $6.00 which is pretty reasonable for what you get. Much better than Subway's horrible pre-packaged chemically preserved meats!
Pros: open early

Was actually suprised that the seafood selection is rather limited given their name. Nevertheless, decent food and has very nice ambiance for a chinese restaurant. Nice bar with two plasma TVs.

In general, the Chinese food in Boston is terrible, even in China Town. I do not know why, but Quan's kitchen is a mediocre place to find decent Chinese in the BU area.
Pros: good value
Cons: none

I always have a great meal at cafe nicholas. I usually go to the one in newton centre, but occasionally go to the one in washington square in brookline too.First of all the pizza is great, they make a terrific homemade sauce, and I highly recommend the marghertia pizza ( or chicken margherita), it is my favorite.I also like their pasta dishes, their main chef, Junior, makes a great chicken balsamico, and chicken marsala.And you cannot beat the prices, great value for friends and family for casual dining.The breads and rolls are always fresh and delicious.Great salads too.The previous review, I can understand the wait-staff/counter issue. It is kind of a hybrid, counter service/table service restaurant, mostly counter service, but they definitely wait on tables in the back as best possible. Sometimes when they are busy it is hard for them to wait tables in the back efficiently. But this should not turn you off, it you have reasonable expectations. They also have a terrific room in back with fireplace and 50 TV.It is great for lunch during work, late nite dinner (they are open till 10) and I always see families having birthday parties in the back on the weekends.Lastly, it is a local family owned business, Nick the owner is a class act, who is a caring member of the business community and the local schools and charities. I have known Nick for 7 years, and frequent his cafe at least once per week, and give him 5 stars.

While their specialty drinks are great, a simple cup of coffee here is awesome. In those cool winter months have your milk steamed... a special treat which also serves to keep you coffee warmer. THey have a wide variety of beans available from all over the world too... and best yet, buy your beans and get a free cup of coffee! :)

this restaurant is located downstairs, so it might be hard to find. i've been here to this restaurant a few times, and tried their sushi as well as their rice plates. it isn't the greatest, especially for the price, and i probably wouldn't go here again since there are many other better japanese and/or korean restaurants in Alliston. it would be worth the drive, even though they are farther. the sushi is made fresh, with a small sushi bar and two sushi chefs. the korean rice plates are decent as well. the staff is pretty friendly too. but overall, i'm just not too impressed with this restaurant if you want really good japanese or korean food.

This restaurant located on route 9 serves American Chinese food. If you're in the mood for chicken wings, boneless sparibs, and fried rice - this would be the place to go for. Their portions are generous especially with the low price for each order. They have lunch specials that come with appetizers and soup. These are also affordable priced. The quality of the food is not supurb but what you pay is what you get. The service is quick. They also have delivery, which is fast and efficient. Even though it looks very small on the outside, there are quite a few tables inside (about ten tables) with a waiter, so you can eat there if you'd like.
