The Farmhouse - Needham

The food is amazing. I would’ve went just for the bread, but that’s not all. In addition, the short ribs are fantastic with some of the best homemade pasta I’ve had. To top it off, the staff was very nice. I will be going back soon. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Quick to become a favorite gem We’ve dined at The Farmhouse on several occasions, whether date night, couples night, or family night. Each offering has been individually notable as “that-was-worth-it” experiences. Last meal as a celebration to our daughter, we enjoyed an evening outside on the terrace high top- and wasn’t that fun for the kids. We enjoyed good apps, good drinks (cocktails mocktails , great conversations and great mains. Fresh ceviche followed by savory shrimp fettuccine- perfectly cooked (poached? tiger shrimp that melts in your mouth, with a clever saffron poisson sauce- and a surprise option, the tenderly-cooked duck breast with expertly roasted brussel sprouts and sweet potato purée. Voilà, merci! Pricey, though worth the extra coin. More importantly, our kids finished their meals off the kid menu- in fact, a very well cooked cut of salmon and al dente pasta- clean plate club! Thus overall, pleased with the sister restaurant of Buttercup (The Farmhouse is distinctively unique, in our view for hitting all the checks, whether a romantic dinner, engaging couples night out, or building memorable times with the family.
