Russo’s is one of the best places in town to get fruits and veggies, as well as fresh cheeses, breads, and olives. It is a HUGE warehouse of produce, and full of things from every corner of the globe. Have you been searching for bitter melon or yucca? You can find them here! Their olive selection is phenomenal and they have a vast array of other goodies.
The produce is incredibly fresh and really very inexpensive. Red peppers are occasionally on sale for less than half what you’d spend a chain store.
While it is somewhat of a long drive from where I live, it is worth the trek every time. They have some really hard to find items and always have helpful and knowledgeable staff.

The New Ginza is a dleightful experience. The location is probably what keeps it from being more crowded, because the food is delicious and the decor is attractive. The Bento Box is really enough for two, starting with delicious miso soup, and including rice, tempura shrimp, pickled vegetables, and sushi, among other delectable bits. The menu is surprisingly large, but don't be dismayed. Sip green tea, and plan to come back. Parking can be a little difficult.

Whenever I'm at the Town Diner I wonder why I don't come more often. The design inside is comforting in that super-dinery way we so seldom see here, the menu is huge and accommodating of all tastes, and you really can get breakfast all day. Not just eggs and toast, either - you can get blue corn waffles and vegetarian sausage if that's your thing. While the chefs play with international spices here and there you can still knock back a little meatlof plate and get that hit of home. Crowded at brunch on weekends, but it moves pretty fast.

I'm in love with this place but must restrain myself or else I'll end up weighing a jillion pounds. First of all, they have a zillion samples, so you don't have to stress out wondering which of their delectable delights you ought to try. They don't seem to mind if you try a lot. In fact, the service is just incredible. They're patient and will answer all your questions. One time I was really debating a couple of items, and they just gave me one of them free so I wouldn't have to make a decision (I was buying a lot of stuff to give to other people). Everything is delicious, and the prices are very reasonable. They have soup, coffee, some little sandwiches, and some candies and chocolates and other little things imported from Scandinavia. The place is tiny as is the parking area, but it's worth the hassle. GREAT!!

Definitely 5 stars! Very small but not crowded, plenty of space between tables. We went on Tuesday, but I would recommend reservation on the weekend. My veal marsala was delicious, tender, wonderful sauce, as well as my friend's chicken parmesan. Staff was very attentive, I can't wait to go again.

This place never ceases to amaze me. I've had Shawarmas all over Europe and the U.S. and nothing has compared to this one. It's tahini sauce is a powerful escape for the taste buds. The chickens are flavorful and have excellent texture. The kebabs are moist and perfectly spiced. While the baba-ganoush was nothing to write home about they do have excellent hummus and grape leaves. Just trust me, don't let the somewhat dry decor throw you off, the food and bargain is worth it.
Pros: parking, bargain, superb flavors
Cons: decor

I chose 5 stars for Comfort because I was looking for a relaxed, reasonably priced restaurant/bar in Watertown, and Comfort delivered. Great beer (including PBR's,) and a nice plasma screen to watch all the games from the bar. The food is solid too. The Burrito rocks as do the wings.
