Boston Market

My first trip to Boston Market will be followed by many more. Today was the first time my family has tried Boston Market and it was really good. Quick, friendly service, a clean restaurant. We had ribs, chicken, mac and cheese, loaded mashed potatoes, baked apples, and cornbread. All of the food was delicious but the apples were my favorite! I would highly recommend having those. Will be back, without a doubt.

Boston Market is one of my all-​time favorite restaurants! I wish there were more of them as I have to drive 18 miles to get to the nearest location. Their food is divine. It’s like homemade, only better, and there are sooo many yummy sides to choose from! I always get the rotisserie chicken because it’s so tender and tasty. They used to have the best beef in town (like prime rib, I believe), but discontinued it. My son likes the meatloaf and my daughter-​in-​law is a vegetarian and Boston Market sides are one of her favorite meals.
The only downside, besides the dearth of locations, is the lack of heat and A/​C — at least at the Sawmill Rd location. Over the past couple of years or so we’ve either shivered on cold days, or melted on hot ones. The first time it happened they told me the system was malfunctioning, but it’s been this way ever since. Me, my son, and my daughter-​in-​law ate there last week and we had to eat with our coats on, as usual. I can’t imagine why a restaurant would not turn on or fix, as the case may be, their heating and cooling system! (hence 4 stars instead of 5)

If you read my review of the Tuttle Mall location, you know how I feel about the food. The best! Great selection, reasonable prices. The only reason this doesn’t get five stars is because it’s quite a bit smaller than the other location. Whereas there’s always plenty of room to spread out at Tuttle, if there’s a lot of people here it can feel kind of claustrophobic (no, it’s not that bad, but I like my space). If I know I’m going to Boston Market, I’ll head to Tuttle. If I’m on Sawmill anyway, I’ll head here no problem. Modern interior, friendly staff, and that piece of cornbread. Yum.
