Everyone Makes Mistakes

even Fava...my wife and I went here on a recommendation...great ambiance, great menu and wine list. My dinner was a bit salty but decided not to say anything however that didn't stop my wife from letting the waitress politely know about it. Not only did they comp the dinner but sent us a complimentary dessert. We've gone back several times since and have never again been dissappointed. These guys know what they're doing...keep customer's happy...customer's come back!

Hidden in along the tracks of Needham Center, Fava is an unpretentious diamond in the rough. Once you find it youll never want to loose it. An intimate room, with a cordial and knowledgeable host, I think he doubles as the chef. Appetizers like quail stuffed with duck sausage, and the best-fried clams I have ever had, are complimented by their extensive wine list. Equally memorable are the entrees; Cashew Crusted Halibut w/ Pad Thai, move over Amarin you have competition. The service was spot on, not in too much to be bothersome, but always there when you wanted them. This restaurant is one of the best finds I have had in the Metro West area. I tried to sneak in on a Saturday night without a reservation but it was packed. Tuesdays and Wednesdays seem to be the best bets without reservations. The globe said it bestFavalous!

• Pros: Great Food, Great Service, Intamate Room

Really wonderful food, skillfully presented. the pumpkin ravioli appetizer was great, but the ipswich clams were even better. The salmon was tasty but the lobster shepherd pie was really wonderful. Good wine list. Definitely a place to go more than once.

• Pros: Great Menu, Good Parking, Knowledgable waiters
• Cons: small
