Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Lincoln

We loved our visit to Saltie Girl. We had the lobster roll and salad (although they charge extra to substitute fries with salad!!) and fish sandwich plus a lovely glass of Provence rosé. Would happily go back again but sadly now back in the UK!

Had a leisurely dinner with friends. All ordered a fish dish and all enjoyed. Started with appetizers which were also good as was service. We sat at 7:30 and able to sit as long as needed. We then went to the Backbar to listen to a good cover band.

Highly reliable and comfortable. The best restaurant in Harvard Square.

80 Thoreau is a small gem in historic Concord. The food, the service, the ambiance are all exceptional.

Sycamore has my heart (and apparently some unresolved daddy issues). Their cocktail, Father Figure, is absolutely fantastic, although I confidently ordered it as the “Daddy Issues.” Honestly, I still think I was onto something. 😂 The food is ridiculously good, the cocktails are dangerously delicious, and the staff? An absolute delight. Warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely lovely people who make you feel like a regular even when you’re not. Come for the food, stay for the hospitality, and maybe leave with a Father Figure. Highly recommend!
