Some of the Critics Reviewed Restaurants:
Gram & Dun (600 Ward Parkway)
Chris thought the brussel sprout salad was extremely good. And Mary enjoyed the shrimp and girts with great jalapeno gravy, and liked the Steak and Chicken. The bar is a bit loud, so if you want to have a serious conversation, ask to go into the back room.
Extra Virgin (1900 Main Street)
Mary ate here on pizza night. Great wine list, and happy hour deals.
Esquina (801 Massachusetts St, Lawrence)
Cafe Trio
Gloria went with a 15 person party, and enjoyed their seafood lasagna. though they handled the large group nicely.
715 (715 Massachusetts St, Lawrence)
Gloria reports that they are expanding. She enjoyed a shredded chicken salad. Charles says this is a great place for brunch.
