Grassfields Food Spirits - Andover

I've been here twice now and both times I've been pleasantly surprised. Great atmosphere on the quieter side. Very reasonable prices but with smaller portions. Slightly skimpy with seafood portions but I would say they are still filling and enjoyable. The service has been great, fast, and helpful. They definitely have your best interests in mind!

I was one of Grassfield's first customers and have such fond memories of going there with my parents, who are deceased. Tonight I went for the memories and was disappointed in my experience. The service was excellent but the food was mediocre at best. The salad was obviously made of bagged vegetables. The bread, which was once delicious, was dry, luke warm, and appeared to be stale. The serving of butter was tiny. I think the accountants are in the kitchen. My main dish, broiled scrod, was very good. It was generous in size and perfectly cooked. But I can do that in my kitchen. The quality of ingredients has declined. I'm glad I went for the memories...if I went for the food I would have left.

I stopped by Grassfields with my boyfriend for dinner on Saturday around 5:30. It was pretty packed but we found parking easily and didn't have to wait for our table. Our waitress Nicole was very sweet and brought out our bread quickly. The bread is warm and fluffy but it will get all over your table. I had a strawberry lemonade (I love these) and the honey glazed salmon, which was perfectly cooked and so delicious. My boyfriend ordered the teriyaki steak, but they brought out steak tips. Luckily the tips were cheaper and they were cooked as he'd asked so he was just as happy. Overall great food and service, so I'd recommend stopping by.

I frequent Jimmy Steerhouse in Arlington and Saugus. Since i was without wife .... why not try the affiliate when in Andover. Food was good. Quality matched. Service needed improvement. i sat at bar during lunch 1:00 pm??? Bartender can not be responsible for 12 stools ... and ten tables. i almost left Poor woman! Cathy? Lots of unnecessary running! A long wait to take order? Meal came .... then requested bread. One brief encounter with her ! She chatted up all ' old regulars. Service was mediocre. Empty wine glass ... no water refill. too busy chatting up regulars. Shameful managerial monitoring bar space. BTW. i am a retired bartender.

Visited for a friends birthday. Prices are very reasonable, I would say the portion sizes reflect that price though (I.e. smaller overall portion sizes on the entrees. Two of my friends ordered the crabmeat pie sirloin, I ordered the scallops steaktips, and another friend ordered the large sirloin. Service was good, our waiter was friendly and attentive. I felt that everything lacked a bit of flavor. I squeezed a lemon on the scallops, and that's the only flavor they had. Steaktips didn't even seem seasoned (I should have ordered the teriyaki, I thought the house tips was the way to go). I tried a bit of crabmeat pie, and it was straight up crab, breadcrumbs unsalted butter. I had higher expectations for this place based on reviews a wait to be seated at 4:30. They were good, reasonably priced, and our waiter did a nice job, just lacked flavor for me.
