PATIO SEATING IS FIRST COME, FIRST SERVEThe Biltmore Bar & Grille is a modern American restaurant in Newton, MA with a longstanding history. No corporate restaurant chain or Hollywood set designer could ever recreate The Biltmore Vibe. In 1914, the Biltmore opened and served up breakfast and brew at 7AM for the overnight crews from nearby factories. It came with a 4 lane basement bowling alley that was a local hangout for decades.There was talk of a speakeasy during prohibition. The Biltmore was across the street from a regional rail stop and often hosted private events for dignitaries, politicians and celebrities.Much of original brick front and interior has remained the same over the many reincarnations of this legendary bar. The original old growth wood flooring has stood up to many timeless celebrations as well. Celebrating this neighborhood legend while serving up fresh new takes on classic dishes and drinks is what The Biltmore is all about.

I love when you are greeted and seated with professionalism. The waitress suggested some great choices. I choose the Brussel Sprout salad, it was large and wonderful. I didn't think I could eat the whole thing, but I did. My friend enjoyed her burger, the fries were good too. Since it wasn't too crowded, we were able to sit and relax. Thanks for a great afternoon.

We had a big group and the restaurant gave us the best side room/ area. Cozy and semi-private, yet still sitting where we could see the bar or look out windows - perfect for a group of 8-10. The seasonal drinks are great and the server was excellent.
