When you walk into the Exchange Street Bistro you feel like your walking into a hip and trendy restaurant in the southend. The food was good the service was good as well. The martini list is great over 50 different martinis to choose from. We will be back soon for the spring menu and martini list.
Pros: Close to home and free parking and great ambience

Wow, what a bad experience we had!! The room is so pretty and the restaurant is so convenient. However, our server was not only rude but also incompetent! He forgot to order two of our 6 meals, the timing was all over the place for the appetizers, and the food was bland at best. I wish we had paid more attention to the review on Boston dot com - it was very accurate! This is probably a fun place to go for drinks after work, but after the rude service we experienced I wouldn't even come back for that.

For Malden, it is a great find!! 2 minutes away from the T and right in the center of Malden Square. Martini lovers will be amazed with the variety of choices provided. The wine list is good, too. I particularly loved the fact that they change the menu seasonally and there are not so many items on the menu. It's a plus for me - I often get lost in all those long lists of dishes and it might take me a long time ot order. All the desserts are made on premises, Loved that creme brulee!!!! Pros: validated parking, big booths and big parties accommodations.Oh, yeah, Sunday brunch is awesome!! Cons: the street is sort of hard to find. Just go to mapquest or get them on their website.Not very kid friendly, but they do have some kind of kids menu. I"d highly recommend that place!

Some friends of mine and I tried this place on a Sunday night. It was not very busy. We had a round of yummy cocktails (Bellini, Pom. Martini, Negroni): not too sweet and not too expensive. The apps we ordered were OK, but not amazing (Calamari and Mussels) - both were fairly generic but with good flavor. The entrees were delicious: Lasagna (special), Duck, and Salmon. Everything was prepared just right and the sides were wonderful. Portions are good (except for the apps) and moderately priced. We shared a Chocolate Explosion for dessert: fantastic. We also shared an $18 bottle of Malbec which was quite tasty. Service was very good, but it was a very slow night for them. I will definitely go back soon.
Pros: Beautiful room, great prices
Cons: In Malden, some apps not particularly inspired
