Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Newton

Farmstead Table should be everyone's "go to" restaurant when you need a special yet unpretentious restaurant. The staff are friendly (but not seeking to be your new best friend) and very knowledgeable. The atmosphere is low key, nicely decorated, and NO TV! The food is very creative and extremely delicious, and with offerings that you would not find elsewhere. Farmstead Table is a favorite for brunch or lunch. I have not yet enjoyed its dinner menu but have no doubt that it's equal to the task if not better.

Excellent food and service! Legal Sea Foods is always consistently great.

All our meals were delicious and portioned large enough to share. We had squash rissotto, salmon, steak and fries, and a couple salads. Everything was perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to have leftovers for lunch today. This is a gem of a neighborhood restaurant and I can’t wait to go back.

This is an awesome find in Newton. Excellent food, very friendly service and a nice ambiance. Every dish, duck pate, tuna tartare, pasta with special bolognese sauce and steak was perfectly prepared, sides and salad were outstanding.

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.
