"Pleasant Cafe is an interesting experience with a great value. It's this perfectly preserved restaurant and bar straight out of the 70s, with a vast menu, unique specials, and a full bar. And it's very affordable! Don't go here with your nose up and quick to judge, it may look old but it has a really special atmosphere that many new hipster joints couldn't recreate if they tried. If you can appreciate it for what it is, you'll be a returning customer no doubt. Be patient with the service, sit back, and enjoy your cold $5 beer!"

"The pros- Good food, super friendly people, closes late. Cons- (As of late) Fries are not as crispy anymore. I'm not sure what happened but for some reason their fries have a soggy type texture. Slightly long wait times, my order was completely correct. Ordered a sub with bacon and their would be no bacon on my sub or given the wrong salad dressing. Other wise it's not any major issues here and I would recommend to anyone."

"JP Seafood has been around for years!! The secret, it has maintained the integrity of the quality, quantity and menu with the passage of time! This is not lost on the locals or newcomers. My favorite is the lunch menu. You can get healthy, tasty affordable selections whether it be the (preceded by Miso Soup) Bento Box or Sushi. The dinner menu (scaled down) is also available. You can dine alone or with friends, and have a view of the tropical fish tanks flush against the wall. The owners live in the neighborhood and that may also have a bearing. The sense of loyalty and responsibility to the community! I've seen many other restaurants come and go in the Neighborhood, yet JP Seafood has stood the test of time! The Bonus, Everything is so pleasing to the Eyes and that's where the introduction to any meal begins!"

"I’m so pleased that there are such great places to eat lunch in the middle of west Roxbury center. This gem of a restaurant was not packed at lunch time, they offer a nice lunch menu that includes and appetizer, an entree and a drink. Apart from being quite affordable the food was delightful. The shrimp rolls where fresh and hardy with all those crunchy vegetables, my mouth is watering just thinking about it. The Basil rice was so colorful and jam packed with flavor. There was so much shrimp and the portion was so big I took some home to eat later. Ithey also have Thai iced tea!!!! I recommend this place for anyone stopping by in West Roxbury, I know the locals love this place and come visit plenty. The place does not offer delivery until 4pm, and on weekdays they close from 3 to 6pm."

"First time here at @alwadiboston and what a wonderful Lebanese dinner experience we had! We got the Al Wadi for two and were completely stuffed with leftovers to take home First, we started off our feast with a deliciously comforting bowl of chicken soup. Next, we had an array of appetizers: pita and hummus, tabouli, and stuffed grape leaves. The pita was freshly baked with a great bite to it. the hummus was deliciously creamy, made with tahini sauce, lemon juice, and olive oil. Made fresh with parsley, mint, wheat bulgur, tomatoes, onions, lots of lemon juice and olive oil, it was hands down the best Tabouli we’ve ever had! The stuffed grape leaves were pretty tasty, with rice, spices, and lemon juice. Next, out came the main course of chicken kebabs, kafta kebabs, and baked kibbeh. I personally loved the chicken kebabs, as they were well spiced and juicy with every bite. I did not like the kafta kebabs which were made of seasoned ground lamb only because I personally don’t like gamey meat (if you like lamb, you’ll love these). The baked kibbeh was made with ground beef, cracked wheat, and pine nuts. A very interesting dish, again if you like gamey meat, you’ll love this. Finally, we ended the meal with dessert: baklava and namoura. The namoura was tasty with an interesting texture, made from semolina flour and yogurt and soaked in syrup. Saving the best for last, I had the best Baklava I’ve had in awhile, each bite of layered pastry was deliciously light and crisp, filled with chopped nuts and sweetened with honey/simple syrup. I’ve always thought of baklava being too sweet to ever enjoy, but like I said this was the best baklava I’ve ever had. The sweetness level was light enough to enjoy all the different elements of the dessert, the layers, textures, and flavors. Just divine! Please check this place out!"
