51 Lincoln is a gem. The food is creative, flavorful and fun. It is tucked away in Newton Highlands, which is a great neighborhood to check out. The restaurant has a new bar with a few seats where you can get a drink if you are waiting for a table. The specialty cocktails are interesting and the wines by the glass are well selected. The ambiance is fun and upbeat. The artwork on the walls (created by the chef owner) is modern and sophisticated. The service is very knowledgeable. Everyone seems to know all there is to know about all the dishes we inquired about. I especially enjoyed the food and liquor pairings. They are small portions of food that are served with house made tasting liquors. Our meals were fantastic. I will surely be back soon.
Pros: Food - Wine - Service
Cons: Slightly Noisy

An Irish pub seems out of place in the upscale, primarily Jewish neighborhood of Newton Highlands. Yet, it has been there forever because it has found a great formula of great food, great service, nice ambiance and reasonable (even cheap) prices.
The ambiance is very much Irish pub. The outside is covered in wood panels and there is a sign for guiness beer over the front door. Inside, you enter into the bar with more wood panels and low lighting. The decor includes lots of vintage photos and beer signs as well as antiques and a mish-mosh of other old stuff. The overall effect is very pleasant and low key. The smallish dining room is off to your right. There are only about 12 tables, although food is also served at the bar.
This is definitely a jeans place and is a refreshing alternative to chain restaurants with their brass and fake fern appearance. The other refreshing thing about this pub is that it is a real neighborhood establishment. There are no colleges immediately nearby and the crowd is usually older.
The food is pub-style with burgers, salads and such but they also offer quite a few Irish specialties. Lunch prices range from $6.50-$9.00 which is very reasonable given the location, the ambiance and service. The food is good too. On our last visit, I had fish and chips and couldn't eat the entire portion. They were not greasy and had a great flavor. My friend got the Cork County pie which had beef, potatoes and vegetables and it was declared to be excellent. Dinner prices start around $10 and the food is just as good. Even the brewed ice tea tasted exceptionally good here. Additionally, being that O'Hara's is at least half bar, expect to have many beers available on tap as well.
The service here is really, really good ALL the time. The wait staff is friendly, quick and accommodates special orders correctly every time. Dinner and Lunch hours get crowded - get there early unless you want to hang at the bar while you wait for a table.
I don't know if they have a children's menu because our kids find something on the regular menu every time and the prices on the regular menu are very good. Despite the bar, there are usually children in the restaurant. Vegetarians will find a few salads on the menu but not many other offerings. O'Hara's is all good and I highly recommend a visit.

This was one of the first places I checked out when I moved to town. I found the staff extremely welcoming and the atmosphere hip and comfortable. The food is truly excellent and the waitstaff is knowledgeable, well-manered, and very quick. The menu is very diverse while not too overwhelming, and the sushi is excellent with unique options. Just a jump past Newton center, this place is well-worth the trip and you are almost certain to get a table right away.
Pros: best service in town!
Cons: would love some outdoor seating?

Ordered the Beef Panang for lunch on a cold day. Delivered nice and warm.
Ingredients seemed very fresh and the portion was plenty for lunch.
It was the first time I had the dish but I was under the impression it came with rice.
Will definitely try again.
Pros: Fresh Veggies, Spicy
Cons: Where was the rice?

I work at a hospital, and this is the number one chinese place around. I love the combination plates and fried wontons! Great service.
Pros: Fried Wontons are to die for
Cons: You might eat too much because it tastes so good
